I'm attempting to make use of the $form->model->default_values and
$form->model->update methods. Everything except for my repeatables are
loading from the db, and I am at a loss as to why this is. My guess is that
either 1) What I want to do cannot currently be done, or 2) I'm missing
something simple, but important. Here's an example of what I am trying to
do:
I have something along the following for my tables:
MyApp::DB::Result::Account:
- A may_have for MyApp::DB::Result::Debit, named debits
MyApp::DB::Result::Debit
- A belongs_to for MyApp::DB::Result::Account, named account
- A has_many for MyApp::DB::Result::DebitItems, named debit_items
MyApp::DB::Result::DebitItems
- A belongs_to for MyApp::DB::Result::Debit, named debit
myapp.conf has:
name MyApp
<Controller::HTML::FormFu>
<model_stash>
schema = DB
</model_stash>
</Controller::HTML::FormFu>
(I'm not sure if that is right. I've tried MyApp::Model::DB, and
MyApp::Schema::DB -- Model::DB lists the connection string, Schema::DB is
the one with the load_namespaces)
My form config has a base config file that loads a bunch of sub config
files. In one of the sub configs where I'm trying to get this working I
have something like this:
---
elements:
nested_name: debits
elements:
- type: Block
tag: table
.... (lots of stuff building out the headers, etc. Then I finally
get to the rows)
- type: Block
tag: tbody
elements:
- type: Repeatable
nested_name: debit_items
elements:
- type: Block
... (lots of stuff building out the row I want repeated)
When I load the form, I do
$form->model->default_values($c->model('DB::Account')->find(1));
The portion of the form that is not in the repeatable section loads fine.
I'll have things like debits.something, debits.soemthing_else (where I have
something and something_else columns in the debit table) All the data for
those fields loads from the database just fine.
The form builds out a table with one empty row, where the names are
debits.debit_item.value, debits.debit_item.date, etc etc (where I have value
and date columns in the debititems table). However, the fields aren't
populated from the database.
As far as I can tell I've got everything right, but obviously I don't
because it just doesn't work. Is this possible, or am I dreaming? If it's
possible, what am I messing up?
Thank you!
