Hmm - thanks - now I think I am getting what is the relation between
the yaml config and object creators in FormFu.
How about adding just one function:
sub options_from {
my ( $self, $args ) = @_;
my $stash = $self->form->{stash};
my $schema = $stash->{'schema'};
my $resultset_name = $args->{resultset_name}; # || ucfirst $self->name;
croak "Needs a DBIx::Class schema and a ResultSet class name"
if ( ! $schema) || ( ! $resultset_name );
my $rs = $schema->resultset( $resultset_name )->search( $args->{where},
$args->{search_attr} );
my $value_field = $args->{value_field} || 'id';
my $presentation = $args->{presentation} || 'id';
my @options = map { [ $_->$value_field, $_->$presentation ] } $rs->all;
$self->options( [EMAIL PROTECTED] );
}
That would consume a config like:
---
elements:
- type: Select::DBIC
name: user
options_from:
resultset_name: User
search_attr:
order_by:
- id
This is as simple as before - but there is one problem - it cannot use
'name' (to set 'resultset_name') - since it looks like that even if
name is before 'options_from' in the config it is not yet set when
'options_from' is called.
And when you don't use the config you would have to call
'options_from' manually - just like you would call 'options'.
