[Catalyst] Chaining?

[Alex Howarth]

Hi,

My code needs to create a story and then associate an image with it and then 
return to a list of all stories.

The process is:

Create Story -> Search for media and relate -> display story list

I have

Controller::Story::create
Controller::Story::create_do

and

Controller::Media::search_and_relate
Controller::Media::search_and_relate_do

and

Controller::Story::list

(these take advantage of HTMLWidget 
http://search.cpan.org/~jrockway/Catalyst-Manual-5.700501/lib/Catalyst/Manual/Tutorial/AdvancedCRUD.pod#HTML%3A%3AWIDGET_FORM_CREATION 
hence the '_do')

I want Controller::Story::create_do to pass either the story object or id to 
Controller::Media::search_and_relate (where the user can continually search by 
keyword until the appropriate media is found) so that I can use this to relate 
the media to.

Should I be using $c->forward('/media/search_and_relate', [ $story ]); (this is 
intended to return and flow to continue?) or $c->stash->{story} = $story (if 
that's only available in the template that doesn't seem appropriate) ? Or 
perhaps Catalyst::DispatchType::Chained ? or maybe even stashing the story id 
in the session?

I'm finding flow control quite hard to get my head around and I can't find 
examples as simple as the one I require as a basis to work with.

Many Thanks,
Alex
