Hi!

I'm trying to use the load_config_file in the middle of a YAML specification to load some common form widgets from another file, but so far I've been unsuccessful.

Imagine this YAML:
---
action: /foo

elements:
	- type: Text
           ...

         - load_config_file: /foo/file

         - type: Submit
           ...

And on /foo/file I have:
---
elements:
	- type: Text
           ...

This generates an error "an't locate object method "elements" via package "HTML::FormFu::Element::Text" at /opt/local/lib/perl5/ site_perl/5.8.8/HTML/FormFu/ObjectUtil.pm line 264", so I'm certain I did something wrong.

Can you tell me the proper way to do this please?

thank you!
Ruben

load_config_file is a method of HTML::FormFu. As such I would only anticipate it working as a top level item in a YAML file.

If you have a look at HTML::FormFu::Manual::Cookbook (currently only in SVN), there is an example of how to do this.

Oh god I'm screwed. I looked at the Cookbook (thanks!) and it seems that I can't include files in the *middle* of a YAML specification...

Since after the load_config_file I only have the submit button I have  
two options:
* move the submit button to an external file and load_config_file it
* create it using Perl after loading my form

Anyway, thank you!

Hi there,

I can start work on the DBIC constraints - but I am still hesitating
about the api.  I've started with a subroutine that works similarly to
the other HTML::FormFu::DBIC subs:

constraints_from_dbic( $dbic, $form );

It would just scan all form fields and add the constraints from the
$dbic row.  The problem I see is with configuration - since normal
constraints are added from the yaml config like:

elements:
      - type: Text
        name: foo
        constraints:
          - type: Length
            min: 8

So this would be a bit different.  We could also have something like:
elements:
      - type: Text
        name: foo
        constraints:
          - type: Length
            min: 8
          - type: From_DBIC
            dbic_field: foofoo

But then when converting from a vanilla FormFu to FormFu::DBIC you
would have to edit the whole yaml config.

Hmm.  Which one do  you prefer? Any other api ideas?

Cheers,
Zbyszek

When you use load_config_file, it inserts the contents of the loaded  
configuration file at the same level where the call was, so what you  
are doing ends up getting parsed something like this:

---
action: /foo
elements:
   - type: Text
   - elements:
      - type: Text
   - type: Submit

If /foo/file just contains the elements that you want inserted at  
that point, then you can take out the elements:, move everything else  
up a level and do it like this:

---
action: /foo
elements:
   - type: TExt
   - load_config_file: /foo/file
   - type: Submit

---
- type: Text
