NAME

Gantry::Utils::CRUDHelp - helper routines for CRUD plugins

SYNOPSIS

    use Gantry::Utils::CRUDHelp;

DESCRIPTION

Exports helper functions useful when writing CRUD plugins.

FUNCTIONS

clean_params

Pass a hash of form parameters and the fields list from a Gantry::Plugins::AutoCRUD style form method. Any field with key is whose value is not boolean is examined in the params hash. If its value is false, that value is changed to undef. This keeps the ORM from trying to insert a blank string into a date and integer fields which is fatal, at least for DBIx::Class inserting into Postgres.

clean_dates

Pass a hash of form parameters and the fields list from a Gantry::Plugins::AutoCRUD style form method. Any field with key is whose value is date is examined in the params hash. If its value is false, that value is changed to undef. This keeps the ORM from trying to insert a blank string into a date field which is fatal, at least for Class::DBI inserting into Postgres.

form_profile

Pass in the fields list from a Gantry::Plugins::AutoCRUD style _form method. Returns a hash reference suitable for passing to the check method of Data::FormValidator.
