HTML::FormHandler::Render::Simple(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation HTML::FormHandler::Render::Simple(3pm) NAME
HTML::FormHandler::Render::Simple - simple rendering role VERSION
version 0.40013 SYNOPSIS
This is a Moose role that is an example of a simple rendering routine for HTML::FormHandler. It's here as an example of how to write a custom renderer in one package, if you prefer that to using the widgets. It won't always be updated with improvements by default, because it was becoming a lot of work to update the rendering in multiple places. For a 'MyApp::Form::Renderer' which you've created and modified, in your Form class: package MyApp::Form::Silly; use Moose; extends 'HTML::FormHandler::Model::DBIC'; with 'MyApp::Form::Renderers'; In a template: [% form.render %] The widgets are rendered with "$field->render"; rendering routines from a class like this use "$form->render_field('field_name')" to render individual fields: [% form.render_field( 'title' ) %] DESCRIPTION
This role provides HTML output routines for the 'widget' types defined in the provided FormHandler fields. Each 'widget' name has a 'widget_$name' method here. These widget routines output strings with HTML suitable for displaying form fields. The widget for a particular field can be defined in the form. You can create additional widget routines in your form for custom widgets. The fill-in-form values ('fif') are cleaned with the 'render_filter' method of the base field class. You can change the filter to suit your own needs: see HTML::FormHandler::Manual::Rendering render To render all the fields in a form in sorted order (using 'sorted_fields' method). render_start, render_end These use the methods in HTML::FormHandler::Widget::Form::Simple now. If you want to customize them, copy them to your own package. Will render the beginning and ending <form> tags and fieldsets. Allows for easy splitting up of the form if you want to hand-render some of the fields. [% form.render_start %] [% form.render_field('title') %] <insert specially rendered field> [% form.render_field('some_field') %] [% form.render_end %] render_field Render a field passing in a field object or a field name $form->render_field( $field ) $form->render_field( 'title' ) render_text Output an HTML string for a text widget render_password Output an HTML string for a password widget render_hidden Output an HTML string for a hidden input widget render_select Output an HTML string for a 'select' widget, single or multiple render_checkbox Output an HTML string for a 'checkbox' widget render_radio_group Output an HTML string for a 'radio_group' selection widget. This widget should be for a field that inherits from 'Select', since it requires the existance of an 'options' array. render_textarea Output an HTML string for a textarea widget render_compound Renders field with 'compound' widget render_submit Renders field with 'submit' widget AUTHOR
