# Catalyst::View(3pm)

Catalyst View base class

## NAME

Catalyst::View - Catalyst View base class

## SYNOPSIS

```
    package Catalyst::View::Homebrew;
    use base qw/Catalyst::View/;
    sub process {
    # template processing goes here.
    }
```

## DESCRIPTION

This is the Catalyst View base class. It's meant to be used as a base class by Catalyst views.

As a convention, views are expected to read template names from `$c`-\>stash-\>{template}, and put the output into `$c`-\>res-\>body. Some views default to render a template named after the dispatched action's private name. (See Catalyst::Action.)

## METHODS

Implements the same methods as other Catalyst components, see Catalyst::Component

### process
