[Html-widget] formfu contributions?

[John Napiorkowski]

Hi,

I know that formfu is still rapidly evolving but I was wondering if you've thought about the scope and requirements for contributions.  For example, I've been playing with porting over some of my H:W filters, such as a few filters I wrote for dealing with uploaded images.  I have one filter for regularizing uploaded images, which accepts file uploads of standard image types and converts them to a particular size and type.  This is used for creating profile avatars, etc.  However it depends on Imager.pm, which can be difficult to install if you are on a hosted server that doesn't like you compile, so I doubt you'd want it as part of the base.  Maybe things like that could go into a 'HTMLFormfuX' type namespace, and people can install them if they need them?

I was also thinking that something that would be really useful to bootstrap development is if there were a bunch of composite elements that would have all the standard fields for addresses and constraints.  Since your system can load up from a YAML file we could start a collection of useful YAML and store them someplace in the docs, like a cookbook you could cut and paste.

If this is something you're not ready to deal with just let me know.

_John
