Catalyst::Plugin::FormValidator(3pm)

Catalyst::Plugin::FormValidator - FormValidator for Catalyst

    use Catalyst 'FormValidator';

    $c->form( optional => ['rest'] );
    print $c->form->valid('rest');

This plugin uses Data::FormValidator to validate and set up form data from your request parameters. It's a quite thin wrapper around that module, so most of the relevant information can be found there.
EXTENDED METHODS prepare Sets up $c->{form} =cut sub prepare {
my $c = shift;
$c = $c->NEXT::prepare(@_);
$c->{form} = Data::FormValidator->check( $c->request->parameters, {} );
return $c; }
METHODS form Merge values with FormValidator.

    $c->form( required => ['yada'] );

Returns a Data::FormValidator::Results object.

    $c->form->valid('rest');

The actual parameters sent to $c->form are the same as used by Data::FormValidator's check function. Catalyst, Data::FormValidator Sebastian Riedel, "[email protected]" This program is free software, you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself.
