Ok, I think that has helped move me a long a bit, thanks.
To try to be clearer, what I want to have is a dict of fields in the
form that is loaded from an external source at runtime.
I want to take this dict and create the form elements. Now I think I
can get this working with widgets and can definitely do it in more
straighforward way (by emitting the proper HTML myself). What I don't
know is how I can get validation working.
What I've done so far is create an __init__ in my Root class that
creates the fields and the form.
I can't figure out how to declare that form as an @validate() though.
I keep getting an error that the form name is undefined.
Briefly, the code looks like:
class Root(controllers.RootController):
def __init__ (self):
myfields=[]
myfields.append(widgets.TextField(name="username",label="Login:",
validator=validators.NotEmpty()))
myfields.append(widgets.TextField(name="cn",label="Full
Name:"))
self.example_form = widgets.TableForm(
fields=myfields,
submit_text="Create user",
action="save"
)
...
...
@expose()
def add(self, tg_errors=None, **kw):
if tg_errors:
turbogears.flash("There was a problem with the form!")
return dict(form=self.example_form)
@expose()
@validate(form=example_form)
@error_handler(adduser)
def save(self, **kw):
Upon startup I get the error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
