=head1 NAME

HTML::FormFu::Model::DBIC - Integrate HTML::FormFu with DBIx::Class

=head1 SYNOPSIS

Set a forms' default values from a DBIx::Class row object:

    my $row = $resultset->find( $id );
    
    $form->default_values( $row );

Update the database from a submitted form:

    if ( $form->submitted_and_valid ) {
        my $row = $resultset->find( $form->param('id') );
        
        $form->update( $row );
    }

=head1 METHODS

=head2 default_values

Arguments: $dbic_row, [\%config]

Return Value: $form

Set a form's default values from a DBIx::Class row.

Any form fields with a name matching a column name will have their default
value set with the column value.

=head3 might_have and has_one relationships

Set field values from a related row with a C<might_have> or C<has_one> 
relationship by placing the fields within a 
L<Block|HTML::FormFu::Element::Block> (or any element that inherits from 
Block, such as L<Fieldset|HTML::FormFu::Element::Fieldset>) with its
L<HTML::FormFu/nested_name> set to the relationships name.

For the following DBIx::Class schemas:

    package MySchema::Book;
    use strict;
    use warnings;
    
    use base 'DBIx::Class';
    
    __PACKAGE__->load_components(qw/ Core /);
    
    __PACKAGE__->table("book");
    
    __PACKAGE__->add_columns(
        id    => { data_type => "INTEGER" },
        title => { data_type => "TEXT" },
    );
    
    __PACKAGE__->set_primary_key("id");
    
    __PACKAGE__->might_have( review => 'MySchema::Review', 'book' );
    
    1;


    package MySchema::Review;
    use strict;
    use warnings;
    
    use base 'DBIx::Class';
    
    __PACKAGE__->load_components(qw/ Core /);
    
    __PACKAGE__->table("review");
    
    __PACKAGE__->add_columns(
        book   => { data_type => "INTEGER" },
        review => { data_type => "TEXT" },
    );
    
    __PACKAGE__->set_primary_key("book");
    
    __PACKAGE__->belongs_to( book => 'MySchema::Book' );
    
    1;


A suitable form for this would be:

    elements:
      - type: Hidden
        name: id
      
      - type: Text
        name: title
      
      - type: Block
        elements:
          - type: Text
            name: review

For C<might_have> and C<has_one> relationships, you generally shouldn't need
to have a field for the related table's primary key, as DBIx::Class will
handle retrieving the correct row automatically.

If you want the related row deleted if a particular field is empty, set
set C<< $field->model_config->{delete_if_empty} >> to true. 

    elements:
      - type: Hidden
        name: id
      
      - type: Text
        name: title
      
      - type: Block
        elements:
          - type: Text
            name: review
            model_config:
              delete_if_empty: 1

=head3 has_many and many_to_many relationships

To edit fields in related rows with C<has_many> and C<many_to_many>
relationships, the fields must be placed within a 
L<Repeatable|HTML::FormFu::Element::Repeatable> element.
This will output a repetition of the entire block for each row returned.
L<HTML::FormFu::Element::Repeatable/increment_field_names> must be true
(which is the default value).

The block's L<nested_name|HTML::FormFu::Element::Repeatable/nested_name>
must be set to the name of the relationship.

If you want an extra, empty, copy of the block to be output, to allow the
user to add a new row of data, set 
C<< $block->model_config->{new_empty_row} >>. The value must be a
column name, or arrayref of column names that must be filled in for the row
to be added.

    ---
    element:
      - type: Repeatable
        nested_name: authors
        model_config:
          new_empty_row: author
        
        elements:
          - type: Hidden
            name: id
          
          - type: Text
            name: author

If you want to add more than one new row you can use
C<< $block->model_config->{new_empty_row_multi} >> instead of
C<< $block->model_config->{new_empty_row} >>. To limit the maximum number of new 
rows put a L<range|HTML::FormFu::Constraint::Range> constraint on the
C<count> field.

    ---
    element:
      - type: Repeatable
        nested_name: authors
        model_config:
          new_empty_row_multi: author
        
        elements:
          - type: Hidden
            name: id
          
          - type: Text
            name: author
            
      - type: Hidden
        name: count
        constraints: 
          - type: Range
            max: 3
        

If you want to provide a L<Checkbox|HTML::FormFu::Element::Checkbox> or
similar field, to allow the user to select whether given rows should be 
deleted (or, in the case of C<many_to_many> relationships, unrelated),
set C<< $block->model_config->{delete_if_true} >> to the name of that
field.

    ---
    element:
      - type: Repeatable
        nested_name: authors
        model_config:
          delete_if_true: delete
        
        elements:
          - type: Hidden
            name: id
          
          - type: Text
            name: author
          
          - type: Checkbox
            name: delete

=head3 many_to_many selection

To select / deselect rows from a C<many_to_many> relationship, you must use
a multi-valued element, such as a 
L<Checkboxgroup|HTML::FormFu::Element::Checkboxgroup> or a
L<Select|HTML::FormFu::Element::Select> with 
L<multiple|HTML::FormFu::Element::Select/multiple> set.

The field's L<name|HTML::FormFu::Element::_Field/name> must be set to the 
name of the C<many_to_many> relationship.

If you want to search / associate the related table by a column other it's
primary key, set C<< $field->model_config->{default_column} >>.

    ---
    element:
        - type: Checkboxgroup
          name: authors
          model_config:
            default_column: foo


=head3 non-column accessors

To make a form field correspond to a method in your DBIx::Class schema, that 
isn't a database column or relationship, set
C<< $field->model_config->{accessor} >>.

    ---
    element:
      - type: Text
        name: foo
        model_config:
          accessor: method_name

=head2 update

Arguments: [$dbic_row], [\%config]

Return Value: $dbic_row

Update the database with the submitted form values. Uses 
L<update_or_insert|DBIx::Class::Row/update_or_insert>.

See L</default_values> for specifics about what relationships are supported
and how to structure your forms.

=head3 Automatically creating a new row object

If you're using L</update> to create a new row object, you don't 
need to create one yourself, as long as the L<DBIx::Class> Schema is on the
form L</stash>, and the ResultSet name is set in either the C<%config>
argument, the Form's L<HTML::FormFu/model_config>, or the Block's
L<HTML::FormFu/model_config> (if L</update> is called on a Block
element).

If you're using L<Catalyst::Controller::HTML::FormFu>, it can automatically
place the schema on the Form's stash, by using the following Catalyst config
(where C<MySchema> is the name of your Catalyst model).

    'Controller::HTML::FormFu':
      model_stash:
        schema: MySchema

An example of setting the ResultSet name on a Form:

    ---
    model_config:
      resultset: FooTable

Note that if you still want to pass a C<%config> argument, you must pass
C<undef> in place of the row:

    $form->update( undef, \%config );

=head1 FAQ

=head2 Add extra values not in the form

To update values to the database which weren't submitted to the form, 
you can first add them to the form with L<add_valid|HTML::FormFu/add_valid>.

    my $passwd = generate_passwd();
    
    $form->add_valid( passwd => $passwd );
    
    $form->update( $row );

C<add_valid> works for fieldnames that don't exist in the form.

=head1 CAVEATS

To ensure your column's inflators and deflators are called, we have to 
get / set values using their named methods, and not with C<get_column> / 
C<set_column>.

Because of this, beware of having column names which clash with DBIx::Class 
built-in method-names, such as C<delete>. - It will have obviously 
undesirable results!
