I have a sub that is supposed to call a record for editing if an $id
parameter is specified. If no $id is given, then it is supposed to
create a new record. It works fine when used to call an existing
record. The problem I am having is that it is returning every record in
the table associated by a has_many relationship when no $id file is
given (new record).
Character ->has_many->CharacterBackground
What I should get is zero records returned from the CharacterBackground
table because it is a new Character record. What I get is every single
record in the CharacterBackground table returned. What is wrong with my
code?
Character.pm
-----------------------------------
sub character : Local FormConfig('character/character.yml') {
my ($self, $c, $id) = @_;
my $book;
if (defined($id)) {
$book = $c->model('DB::Character')->find($id);
unless ($book) {
$c->stash->{error_msg} = "Invalid Character record -- Cannot
edit";
$c->response->redirect($c->uri_for('list_character'));
$c->detach;
}
} else {
$book = $c->model('DB::Character')->new_result({});
}
my $form = $c->stash->{form};
if ($form->submitted_and_valid) {
$form->model->update($book);
$c->stash->{status_msg} = 'Record ammended';
$c->response->redirect($c->uri_for('list_character'));
$c->detach;
} else {
$form->model->default_values($book);
}
$c->stash->{given_title} = 'Edit Character';
$c->stash->{template} = 'character/character.tt2';
}

Here is the code that I use to edit a record. It works properly.
<a href="[% c.uri_for('character', char_rec.character_id) %]">Edit</a>
Here is the code I use to call for a new record.
<a href="[% c.uri_for('character') %]">Create a New Character</a>
