=head1 NAME
CatalystX::CRUD::Controller::RHTMLO - Rose::HTML::Objects CRUD controller
=head1 SYNOPSIS
see CatalystX::CRUD::Controller
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This is an implementation of CatalystX::CRUD::Controller
for Rose::HTML::Objects. It supercedes Catalyst::Controller::Rose for
basic CRUD applications.
=cut
=head1 METHODS
The following methods are new or override base methods.
=cut
=head2 form( I )
Returns an instance of config->{form_class}.
A single form object is instantiated and cached in the controller object.
The form's clear() method is called before returning.
I object is set in forms's app() method.
B The form is cleared only the B
form() is called in each request cycle.
This is B than the behaviour described in
CatalystX::CRUD::Controller.
=cut
sub form {
my ( $self, $c ) = @_;
$self->{_form} ||= $self->form_class->new( app => $c );
$self->{_form}->app($c) unless defined $self->{_form}->app;
$self->{_form}->clear
unless $self->{_form}->app->stash->{_form_called}
->{ $self->action_namespace }++;
return $self->{_form};
}
=head2 field_names( I )
Returns an array ref of the field names in form.
=cut
sub field_names {
my ( $self, $c ) = @_;
$self->throw_error("context required") unless defined $c;
return $self->form($c)->field_names;
}
=head2 all_form_errors
Convenience method for aggregating all form errors. Returns a single
scalar string.
=cut
sub all_form_errors {
my ( $self, $form ) = @_;
my @err = ( $form->error );
for my $f ( $form->fields ) {
push( @err, $f->name . ': ' . $f->error ) if $f->error;
}
return join( "\n", grep {defined} @err );
}
=head2 form_to_object( I )
Overrides base method.
=cut
sub form_to_object {
my ( $self, $c ) = @_;
my $form = $c->stash->{form};
my $obj = $c->stash->{object};
my $obj_meth = $self->init_object;
my $form_meth = $self->init_form;
# id always comes from url but not necessarily from form,
# but in either case, $obj should already have %pk set
# since it was used in fetch()
my $id = $c->stash->{object_id};
my %pk = $self->get_primary_key( $c, $id );
# initialize the form with the object's values
# TODO this might not work if the delegate() does not have
# 1-to-1 mapping of form fields to object methods.
$form->$form_meth($obj);
# set param values from request.
$form->params( $c->req->params );
# override form's values with those from params
# no_clear is important because we already initialized with object
# and we do not want to undo those mods.
$form->init_fields( no_clear => 1 );
# return if there was a problem with any param values
unless ( $form->validate() ) {
my $err = $self->all_form_errors($form);
$c->stash( error => $err ); # NOT throw_error()
$c->log->debug("RHTMLO: form error:\n$err\n")
if $c->debug;
$c->stash->{template} ||= $self->default_template; # MUST specify
return 0;
}
# re-set object's values from the now-valid form
# TODO this might not work if the delegate() does not have
# 1-to-1 mapping of form fields to object methods.
# this is same objection as $form_method call above
$form->$obj_meth($obj);
return $obj;
}
=head2 do_search( I, I )
Makes form values sticky then calls the base do_search() method with
next::method().
=cut
sub do_search {
my ( $self, $c, @arg ) = @_;
# make form sticky
$c->stash->{form} ||= $self->form($c);
# if we have no input, just return for initial search
if ( !@arg && !$c->req->param && $c->action->name eq 'search' ) {
$c->log->debug("no input to search. return") if $c->debug;
# must clear explicitly since this is a new search
# and form may have been initialized elsewhere
$c->stash->{form}->clear;
$c->log->debug("rhtmlo form cleared") if $c->debug;
return;
}
$c->stash->{form}->params( $c->req->params );
$c->stash->{form}->init_fields();
return $self->next::method( $c, scalar $self->field_names($c), @arg );
}
