Yes, something like that. And I think it could be also helpful if you could
right about the recommended way to access the login_form's variables in the
action used by that form (for example "/login").
Define $login_form = $self->form there also?
Or just get the variables using $c->req->param(...)?

Subject: Re: [html-formfu] Displaying 2 forms in the same page
=head2 Multiple forms using Catalyst::Controller::HTML::FormFu
Sometimes you need to display multiple forms on a single page. If you
try to use FormConfig on several actions in a chain, or similar, they
all use $c->stash->{form} to store the form, hence you only get the last
form.
One way to work around such problems is to do a little of the work
yourself:
In this example we have a login_form that we want on every page
root/forms/login.yml:
---
elements:
-
type: Text
name: username
...
We load this in the top-most auto action:
package MyApp::Controller::Root;
use parent 'Catalyst::Controller::HTML::FormFu';
sub auto : Private {
my ($self, $c) = @_;
# We want to utilize alot of the magic that the controller
# gives us, so therefore we call $self->form like this
my $login_form = $self->form;
$login_form->load_config('forms/login.yml');
# Notice how we put it into another stash var, not 'form'
$c->stash->{login_form} = $login_form;
}
Any other page that wants to load another form, can now do so freely:
package MyApp::Controller::Foo;
sub edit : Local FormConfig {
}
Finaly, we need to show both forms:
root/foo/edit.tt
[% login_form %]
<h2>edit</h2>
[% form %]
Something like that?
If no-one objects, I'll commit it tomorrow
