Catalyst::Enzyme::CRUD::Model - CRUD Model Component
CRUD Model Component.
This is how to configure your model classes' meta data.
Some things are Enzyme related configurations. These go in the:
__PACKAGE__->config( crud => {} )
hash ref.
Human readable name for this model.
E.g. "Shop Location".
Default: MyApp::Model::CDBI::ShopLocation becomes "Shop Location".
Column monikers. Hash ref with (key: column name: value: moniker).
Default: based on the column name (id_% and %id removed, the capitalized).
Override specific column names like this:
column_monikers => { __PACKAGE__->default_column_monikers, url => "URL" },
Validation rules for the data fields.
Default: no validation, all columns are optional.
Note that you need to provide the entire config hashref that Data::FormValidator expects.
Number of rows per page when using a pager (which will happen unless paging is disabled by setting this value is 0).
Default: 20
Let's say your Model class Book has a Foreign Key (FK) genre_id to the Genre Model class.
In the list of Books, the Genre will just be displayed with this identifier, whereas you really would like it to display the Genre name.
In the Genre model class, define the column group Stringify, like this:
__PACKAGE__->columns(Stringify => qw/ name /);
This magic is performed by Class::DBI and Class::DBI::AsForm's to_field method.
When objects are displayed in a list, the text in the Stringify column will become a link to view the object.
list
view
The following set of columns can be defined for various uses in the templates. The column names both define which columns to display, and in which order.
__PACKAGE__->columns(view_columns => qw/ COLUMNS /); __PACKAGE__->columns(edit_columns => qw/ COLUMNS /); __PACKAGE__->columns(list_columns => qw/ COLUMNS /);
The default is all columns except primary keys.
These are pre-entered by the Model helper so it's easy for you to remove or change the order. If you like it the way it is, just delete the lines altogether.
use Data::FormValidator::Constraints qw(:regexp_common); __PACKAGE__->columns(Stringify => qw/ url /); __PACKAGE__->columns(list_columns=> qw/ name email url /); __PACKAGE__->columns(view_columns=> qw/ name email url phone /); __PACKAGE__->config( crud => { moniker => "URL", rows_per_page => 20, data_form_validator => { optional => [ __PACKAGE__->columns ], required => [ "url" ], constraint_methods => { url => FV_URI(), }, msgs => { format => '%s', constraints => { FV_URI => "Not a URL", }, }, }, }, );
Return hash ref with the default column monikers (display names) for all columns.
You can use this to setup a Model's crud config like this:
__PACKAGE__->config( crud => { column_monikers => { __PACKAGE__->default_column_monikers, url_id => "URL" }; }, );
Return default name for $column.
Remove _id$ and ^id_.
Exemple: author_name_id --> Author Name
Return array with the column names suitable for a list of the objects in this Model.
Configure this with:
__PACKAGE__->columns(list_columns => qw/ column names /);
Default: the default_columns.
Return array with the column names suitable for viewing an object in this Model.
__PACKAGE__->columns(view_columns => qw/ column names /);
Return array with the column names suitable for editing an object in this Model.
__PACKAGE__->columns(edit_columns => qw/ column names /);
Default: edit_columns (if specified), otherwise the default_columns.
Return array with the column names identified by __PACKAGE__->columns($group_name).
__PACKAGE__->columns($group_name => qw/ column names /);
Return array with the default column names suitable for an object in this Model.
This is all column names, except PK columns.
If $column has a has_a relationship to another table, return the Model's Controller's namespace (or the first if there are many).
Return "" if there are no related tables.
