Hi Zbyszek,
do you plan FormFu support? In case the submitted values are not valid
the response is a xml/json/whatever which includes the error messages.
That would be really great :)
cheers,

Hi Toby,
I don't know if you are aware - but building a REST-like CRUD
interface to DBIx::Schema is my long term goal (started with
Catalyst::Example::InstantCRUD). Do you think we could collaborate?
Cheers,
Zbyszek

just looking for some advice on the best way to do something..
So I wrote a controller class using Chained that basically auto-
converts any
DBIx::Schema (which includes a tiny extra base class itself) into a
REST API..
Well, a simple one anyway - it supports find and search so far, and
foreign
keys in the objects get serialised into hashes of the URIs to fetch
them.
All working nicely so far, but this is all for GET queries.
But the behaviour should be different depending upon whether you
GET /item/1234
or
DELETE /item/1234
etc.
I was thinking something like this: (Abbreviated code below)
------------
sub item_by_id : Chained CaptureArgs(2) {
my ($self, $c, $type, $id) = @_;
$c->stash->{item} = $c->model("DB:$type")->find($id);
}
sub delete : Chained('item_by_id') Args ActionClass('MethodDELETE') {
my ($self, $c) = @_;
$c->stash->{item}->delete;
}
sub modify : Chained('item_by_id') Args ActionClass('MethodPUT') {
my ($self, $c) = @_;
$c->stash->{item}->update($c->request->params);
}
------------
Then the appropriate ActionClasses would check if the $c->req-
>method eq 'GET'
or 'DELETE' or whatever.
But I was just wondering if you had other ideas, and if using
ActionClasses
with Chained actions is crackfuelled and going to lead to a world
of misery and
pain.
Cheers!
Toby
