Template render in parts

Hi all,


I am trying to display the LDAP search entries using 'callback' option in
the search method.
I have been successful in handling the callback option and got 'one by one
result'.
But I found a problem in displaying the search entries in a Template using
the catalyst framework.

I want to display LDAP search entries in TT. But I want to show the search
entries directly.
When I receive the first search result, I want to show it (that result) in
TT and the back-end process should automatically search the second entry
and so on.
Similarly, when I get the second search result, I want  to show that
result in TT and similarly the back-end process should automatically
search the next entry and so on.

It means when I get the search results directly, it should be ideally
displayed in the TT without waiting for all the search results.
For this mechanism, I used the Net::LDAP search method. Search method
provides callback option to return one by one search results.
For the template, I used Template::Alloy module. I used both modules (i.e.
Net::LDAP and Template::Alloy) in my CGI application. Both work perfectly.

Now I want to use this mechanism in Catalyst applications as well. I
searched and designed the following module
Catalyst::Helper::View::TT::Alloy. I believe it should work perfectly in
place of the Template::Alloy module. Could you please give your
comments/insights on this as I'm not completely sure about it.

It would also be of immense help if you could refer me some other module
which would/could work in place of the Template::Alloy module perfectly in
the Catalyst framework for different applications.


I would be grateful if any one help me how to access this module with
Catalyst framework.

Looking forward to a prompt response.

Here I  given example which is working in CGI application.

==============Callback.cgi===============
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Template::Alloy;
use Net::LDAP;

my $tr = Template::Alloy->new(

     EXPOSE_BLOCKS => 1,

     INCLUDE_PATH  => "./",

);

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
$tr->process("userlist.tt/header", {title => 'MyStore', date =>
scalar(localtime)});


sub search_result {
    my ( $mesg, $entry) = @_;

    if ( !defined($entry) ) {
        if ($mesg->count == 0) {
            return;
        }
    }

    my $dn = $entry->dn; # Obtain DN of this entry
    my $cn = $entry->get_value( "cn", asref => 1 );
    my $mail = $entry->get_value( "mail", asref => 1 );
    my $uid = $entry->get_value( "uid", asref => 1 );
    my $vars = {
        dn => "$dn",
        cn => "@$cn",
        mail => "@$mail",
        uid => "@$uid",
    };
    $tr->process("userlist.tt/UserList", $vars);
    $mesg->pop_entry;

}  # End of callback subroutine

$ldap = Net::LDAP->new('localhost') or die "$@";
$ldap->bind(
    dn       => "uid=admin,ou=people,dc=example,dc=co,dc=in",
    password => "admin"
);

$mesg = $ldap->search (
    base   => "dc=example,dc=co,dc=in",
    scope  => "sub",
    filter => "uid=*",
    attrs  => ["dn", "cn", "mail", "uid"],
    callback => \&search_result,
);

if ( $mesg->code ) {
    $errstr = $mesg->code;
    print "Error code:  $errstr\n";
}

$tr->process("userlist.tt/footer", \%row);

=========userlist.tt========
[% BLOCK header ~%]
<html>
  <head>
    <title>my site - [% title %]</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <h4>The date is [% date %]</h4>
    <table border=1>
      <tr>
        <th>DN</th>
        <th>CN</th>
        <th>Mail</th>
        <th>UID</th>
      </tr>
[% END %]
[% BLOCK  UserList ~%]
      <tr>
        <td>[% dn %]</td>
        <td>[% cn %]</td>
