To get to know TG I am trying to start writing a blog application. In my
controller I have:
#####
@expose(template='kid:tblog.BlogEntryController.templates.form')
def new(self, **kw):
return dict(modelname = self.modelname,
data = dict(authorID = identity.current.user.id),
form = model_form,
page ='new')
#####
and:
#####
class BlogEntryFields(widgets.WidgetsList):
author = widgets.HiddenField()
date = widgets.CalendarDateTimePicker(name = 'date',
label = 'Entry Date',
validator =
validators.DateTimeConverter())
entryTitle = widgets.TextField(name = 'entryTitle', label = 'Entry
Title',
validator = validators.NotEmpty)
entryText = widgets.TextArea(name = 'entryText', label = 'Blog Entry',
validator = validators.NotEmpty,
rows = 25, cols = 70)
#####
In the kid-file I have:
#####
#${data}#${data['authorID']}#
${form(value = data, action = 'save', submit_text = "Create")}
#####
I use this, because I want that the author of an entry is the logged in
person.
When I look at the source of the generated page, I see that
#${data}#${data['authorID']}#
is expanded to
#authorID#1#
But the hidden field becomes:
<input class="hiddenfield" type="hidden" id="form_author" name="author">
Value is not filled.
The code should become something like:
author = widgets.HiddenField(default = <value>)
but how do I retreive the needed value in BlogEntryFields?
