NAME

DEPRECATED - Catalyst::Plugin::FormValidator - Unmaintained Data::FormValidator plugin for Catalyst.

SYNOPSIS

    use Catalyst 'FormValidator';

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

WARNING

This code is not maintained, and is disrecommended for use in new applications.

Instead, it is recommended to use newer, better supported modules such as:

Catalyst::Controller::HTML::FormFu

Catalyst::Controller::FormBuilder

Note that not only is this plugin disrecommended (as it takes over the global $c->form method, rather than being applyable in only part of your application), but Data::FormValidator itself is not recommended for use.

DESCRIPTION

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}

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 the profile in Data::FormValidator's check function.
