CGI::Application::Plugin::ValidateRM - Help validate CGI::Application
run modes using Data::FormValidator
SYNOPSIS
use CGI::Application::Plugin::ValidateRM;
my $results = $self->check_rm('form_display','_form_profile') || return $self->check_rm_error_page;
# Optionally, you can pass additional options to HTML::FillInForm->fill()
my $results = $self->check_rm('form_display','_form_profile', { fill_password => 0 })
|| return $self->check_rm_error_page;
DESCRIPTION
CGI::Application::Plugin::ValidateRM helps to validate web forms when
using the CGI::Application framework and the Data::FormValidator module.
check_rm()
Validates a form displayed in a run mode with a "Data::FormValidator"
profile, returning the results and possibly an a version of the form
page with errors marked on the page.
In scalar context, it returns simply the Data::FormValidator::Results
object which conveniently evaluates to false in a boolean context if
there were any missing or invalide fields. This is the recommended
calling convention.
In list context, it returns the results object followed by the error
page, if any. This was the previous recommended syntax, and was used
like this:
my ($results,$err_page) = $self->check_rm('form_display','_form_profile');
return $err_page if $err_page;
The inputs are as follows:
Return run mode
This run mode will be used to generate an error page, with the form
re-filled (using HTML::FillInForm) and error messages in the form.
This page will be returned as a second output parameter.
The errors will be passed in as a hash reference, which can then be
handed to a templating system for display. Following the above
example, the form_display() routine might look like:
sub form_display {
my $self = shift;
my $errs = shift; # <-- prepared for form reloading
my $t = $self->load_tmpl('form_display.html');
$t->param($errs) if $errs; # <-- Also necessary.
# ...
}
The fields should be prepared using Data::FormValidator's built-in
support for returning error messages as a hash reference. See the
documentation for "msgs" in the Data::FormValidator::Results
documentation.
Returning the errors with a prefix, such as "err_" is recommended.
Using "any_errors" is also recommended to make it easy to display a
general "we have some errors" message.
HTML::Template users may want to pass "die_on_bad_params=>0" to the
HTML::Template constructor to prevent the presence of the "err_"
tokens from triggering an error when the errors are *not* being
displayed.
Data::FormValidator profile
This can either be provided as a hash reference, or as the name of a
CGI::Application method that will return such a hash reference.
HTML::FillInForm options (optional)
If desired, you can pass additional options to the HTML::FillInForm
fill() method through a hash reference. See an example above.
Additional Options
To control things even more, you can set parameters in your
CGI::Application object itself.
dfv_defaults
The value of the 'dfv_defaults' param is optionally used to pass
defaults to the Data::FormValidator new() constructor.
$self->param(dfv_defaults => { filters => ['trim'] })
By setting this to a hash reference of defaults in your
"cgiapp_init" routine in your own super-class, you could make it
easy to share some default settings for Data::FormValidator across
several forms. Of course, you could also set parameter through an
instance script via the PARAMS key.
Here's an example that I've used:
sub cgiapp_init {
my $self = shift;
# Set some defaults for DFV unless they already exist.
$self->param('dfv_defaults') ||
$self->param('dfv_defaults', {
missing_optional_valid => 1,
filters => 'trim',
msgs => {
any_errors => 'err__',
prefix => 'err_',
invalid => 'Invalid',
missing => 'Missing',
format => '%s',
},
});
}
Now all my applications that inherit from a super class with this
"cgiapp_init()" routine and have these defaults, so I don't have to
add them to every profile.
dfv_fif_class
By default this plugin uses HTML::FillInForm to fill in the forms on
the error pages with the given values. This option let's you change
that so it uses an HTML::FillInForm compatible class (like a
subclass) to do the same work.
$self->param(dfv_fif_class => 'HTML::FillInForm::SuperDuper');
dfv_fif_defaults
The value of the 'dfv_fif_defaults' param is optionally used to pass
defaults to the HTML::FillInForm "fill()" method.
$self->param(dfv_fif_defaults => {ignore_fields => ['rm']})
By setting this to a hash reference of defaults in your
"cgiapp_init" routine in your own super-class, you could make it
easy to share some default settings for HTML::FillInForm across
several forms. Of course, you could also set parameter through an
instance script via the PARAMS key.
CGI::Application::Plugin::Forward support
Experimental support has been added for
CGI::Application::Plugin::Forward, which keeps the current run mode up
to date. This would be useful if you were automatically generating a
template name based on the run mode name, and you wanted this to work
with the form run mode used with ::ValidateRM.
If we detect that ::Forward is loaded, we will set the current run mode
name to be accurate while the error page is being generated, and then
set it back to the previous value afterwards. There is a caveat: This
currently only works when the run name name is the same as the
subroutine name for the form page. If they differ, the current run mode
name inside of the form page will be inaccurate. If this is a problem
for you, get in touch to discuss a solution.
check_rm_error_page()
After check_rm() is called this accessor method can be used to retrieve
the error page described in the check_rm() docs above. The method has an
alias named "dfv_error_page()" if you find that more intuitive.
dfv_results()
$self->dfv_results;
After "check_rm()" or "validate_rm()" has been called, the DFV results
object can also be accessed through this method. I expect this to be
most useful to other plugin authors.
validate_rm()
Works like "check_rm" above, but returns the old style $valid hash
reference instead of the results object. It's no longer recommended, but
still supported.
EXAMPLE
In a CGI::Application module:
# This is the run mode that will be validated. Notice that it accepts
# some errors to be passed in, and on to the template system.
sub form_display {
my $self = shift;
my $errs = shift;
my $t = $self->load_tmpl('page.html');
$t->param($errs) if $errs;
return $t->output;
}
sub form_process {
my $self = shift;
use CGI::Application::Plugin::ValidateRM (qw/check_rm/);
my ($results, $err_page) = $self->check_rm('form_display','_form_profile');
return $err_page if $err_page;
#.. do something with DFV $results object now
my $t = $self->load_tmpl('success.html');
return $t->output;
}
sub _form_profile {
return {
required => 'email',
msgs => {
any_errors => 'some_errors',
prefix => 'err_',
},
};
}

=head1 NAME
CGI::Application::Plugin::ValidateRM - Help validate CGI::Application run modes using Data::FormValidator
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use CGI::Application::Plugin::ValidateRM;
my $results = $self->check_rm('form_display','_form_profile') || return $self->check_rm_error_page;
# Optionally, you can pass additional options to HTML::FillInForm->fill()
my $results = $self->check_rm('form_display','_form_profile', { fill_password => 0 })
|| return $self->check_rm_error_page;
=head1 DESCRIPTION
CGI::Application::Plugin::ValidateRM helps to validate web forms when using the
CGI::Application framework and the Data::FormValidator module.
=head2 check_rm()
Validates a form displayed in a run mode with a C profile, returning
the results and possibly an a version of the form page with errors marked on the page.
In scalar context, it returns simply the Data::FormValidator::Results object
which conveniently evaluates to false in a boolean context if there were any missing
or invalide fields. This is the recommended calling convention.
In list context, it returns the results object followed by the error page, if any.
This was the previous recommended syntax, and was used like this:
my ($results,$err_page) = $self->check_rm('form_display','_form_profile');
return $err_page if $err_page;
The inputs are as follows:
=over
=item Return run mode
This run mode will be used to generate an error page, with the form re-filled
(using L) and error messages in the form. This page will be
returned as a second output parameter.
The errors will be passed in as a hash reference, which can then be handed to a
templating system for display. Following the above example, the form_display() routine might look like:
sub form_display {
my $self = shift;
my $errs = shift; # <-- prepared for form reloading
my $t = $self->load_tmpl('form_display.html');
$t->param($errs) if $errs; # <-- Also necessary.
# ...
}
The fields should be prepared using Data::FormValidator's
built-in support for returning error messages as a hash reference.
See the documentation for C in the L
documentation.
Returning the errors with a prefix, such as "err_" is recommended. Using
C is also recommended to make it easy to display a general "we have
some errors" message.
HTML::Template users may want to pass C0> to the
HTML::Template constructor to prevent the presence of the "err_" tokens from
triggering an error when the errors are I being displayed.
=item Data::FormValidator profile
This can either be provided as a hash reference, or as the name
of a CGI::Application method that will return such a hash reference.
=item HTML::FillInForm options (optional)
If desired, you can pass additional options to the L
L method through a hash reference.
See an example above.
=back
=head3 Additional Options
To control things even more, you can set parameters in your L
object itself.
=over
=item dfv_defaults
The value of the 'dfv_defaults' param is optionally used to pass defaults to the
L L constructor.
$self->param(dfv_defaults => { filters => ['trim'] })
By setting this to a hash reference of defaults in your C routine
in your own super-class, you could make it easy to share some default settings for
Data::FormValidator across several forms. Of course, you could also set parameter
through an instance script via the PARAMS key.
Here's an example that I've used:
sub cgiapp_init {
my $self = shift;
# Set some defaults for DFV unless they already exist.
$self->param('dfv_defaults') ||
$self->param('dfv_defaults', {
missing_optional_valid => 1,
filters => 'trim',
msgs => {
any_errors => 'err__',
prefix => 'err_',
invalid => 'Invalid',
missing => 'Missing',
format => '%s',
},
});
}
Now all my applications that inherit from a super class with this
C routine and have these defaults, so I don't have
to add them to every profile.
=item dfv_fif_class
By default this plugin uses L to fill in the forms
on the error pages with the given values. This option let's you change
that so it uses an L compatible class (like a subclass)
to do the same work.
$self->param(dfv_fif_class => 'HTML::FillInForm::SuperDuper');
=item dfv_fif_defaults
The value of the 'dfv_fif_defaults' param is optionally used to pass defaults to the
L C method.
$self->param(dfv_fif_defaults => {ignore_fields => ['rm']})
By setting this to a hash reference of defaults in your C routine
in your own super-class, you could make it easy to share some default settings for
L across several forms. Of course, you could also set parameter
through an instance script via the PARAMS key.
=back
=head2 CGI::Application::Plugin::Forward support
Experimental support has been added for CGI::Application::Plugin::Forward,
which keeps the current run mode up to date. This would be useful if you
were automatically generating a template name based on the run mode name,
and you wanted this to work with the form run mode used with ::ValidateRM.
If we detect that ::Forward is loaded, we will set the current run mode name to
be accurate while the error page is being generated, and then set it back to
the previous value afterwards. There is a caveat: This currently only works
when the run name name is the same as the subroutine name for the form page.
If they differ, the current run mode name inside of the form page will be
inaccurate. If this is a problem for you, get in touch to discuss a solution.
=head2 check_rm_error_page()
After check_rm() is called this accessor method can be used to retrieve the
error page described in the check_rm() docs above. The method has an alias
named C if you find that more intuitive.
=head2 dfv_results()
$self->dfv_results;
After C or C has been called, the DFV results object
can also be accessed through this method. I expect this to be most useful to
other plugin authors.
=head2 validate_rm()
Works like C above, but returns the old style C<$valid> hash
reference instead of the results object. It's no longer recommended, but still
supported.
=head1 EXAMPLE
In a CGI::Application module:
# This is the run mode that will be validated. Notice that it accepts
# some errors to be passed in, and on to the template system.
sub form_display {
my $self = shift;
my $errs = shift;
my $t = $self->load_tmpl('page.html');
$t->param($errs) if $errs;
return $t->output;
}
sub form_process {
my $self = shift;
use CGI::Application::Plugin::ValidateRM (qw/check_rm/);
my ($results, $err_page) = $self->check_rm('form_display','_form_profile');
return $err_page if $err_page;
#.. do something with DFV $results object now
my $t = $self->load_tmpl('success.html');
return $t->output;
}
sub _form_profile {
return {
required => 'email',
msgs => {
any_errors => 'some_errors',
prefix => 'err_',
},
};
}
In page.html:
