NAME

SYNOPSIS
 package MyApp::Form::Foo;
 use strict;

 sub foo_from_form {
     my $self = shift;

DESCRIPTION
CatalystX::CRUD::Test::Form is a mock form class for testing CatalystX::CRUD packages. The API is similar to Rose::HTML::Form, but implements very naive methods only.

METHODS

  new( args )
Returns new object instance. args must be a hashref and must contain at least a key/value pair for fields.

  fields( [ arrayref ] )
Get/set the arrayref of field names.

This must be set in new().

  field_names
An alias for fields().

  params( [ hashref ] )
Get/set the hashref of key/value pairs for the form object. The keys should be the names of form fields and should match the value of fields().

  param( key => val )
Sets the key/value pair for a field. key should be the name of a field, as indicated by params().

  init_fields
Placeholder only. Does nothing.

  clear
Resets params() to an empty hashref.

  validate
Does nothing. Always returns true.

  init_with_object( object )
You should override this method in your subclass. Basically sets all accessors in form equal to the equivalent value in object.

Returns the Form object.

  object_from_form( object )
You should override this method in your subclass. Basically sets all accessors in object equal to the equivalent value in form.

  dump
Wrapper around Data::Dump::dump. Returns the form object serialized.
