242 Building a CRUD controller would be easy, were it not for those stupid
243 list actions. People unreasonably expect stuff like filtering, sorting,
244 paginating, exporting etc simply to work. Well, lets try to make it simply work
247 This class is a proxy between a controller and specialized
248 helper modules that handle these things (sorting, paginating etc) and gives you
249 the means to retrieve the information when needed to display sort headers or
252 Information about the requested data query can be stored in the object up to
253 a certain point, from which on the object becomes locked and can only be
254 accessed for information. (See C<STATES>).
256 =head1 INTERFACE METHODS
262 Create a new GetModels object. Params must have at least an entry
263 C<controller>, other than that, see C<CONFIGURATION> for options.
267 Retrieve all models for the current configuration. Will finalize the object.
269 =item get_models_url_params SUB
271 Register a sub to be called whenever an URL has to be generated (e.g. for sort
272 and pagination links). This is a way for the controller to add additional
273 parameters to the URL (e.g. for filter parameters).
275 The parameter can be either a code reference or the name of
276 one of the controller's functions.
278 The value returned by C<SUB> must be either a single hash
279 reference or a hash of key/value pairs to add to the URL.
281 =item add_additional_url_params C<%params>
283 Sets additional parameters that will be added to each URL generated by
284 this model (e.g. for pagination/sorting). This is just sugar for a
285 proper call to L<get_models_url_params> with an anonymous sub adding
290 Returns a URL suitable for use as a callback parameter. It maps to the
291 current controller and action. All registered handlers of type
292 'callback' (e.g. the ones by C<Sorted> and C<Paginated>) can inject
293 the parameters they need so that the same list view as is currently
294 visible can be re-rendered.
296 Optional C<%params> passed to this function may override any parameter
297 set by the registered handlers.
299 =item enable_plugin PLUGIN
301 =item disable_plugin PLUGIN
303 =item is_enabled_plugin PLUGIN
305 Enable or disable the specified plugin. Useful to disable paginating for
306 exports for example. C<is_enabled_plugin> can be used to check the current
309 Must not be finalized to use this.
313 Forces finalized state. Can be used on finalized objects without error.
315 Note that most higher functions will call this themselves to force a finalized
316 state. If you do use it it must come before any other finalizing methods, and
317 will most likely function as a reminder for maintainers where your code
318 switches from configuration to finalized state.
322 The source for user supplied information. Defaults to $::form. Changing it
323 after C<Base> phase has no effect.
325 =item controller CONTROLLER
327 A weakened link to the controller that created the GetModels object. Needed for
328 certain plugin methods.
332 =head1 DELEGATION METHODS
334 All of these finalize.
336 Methods delegating to C<Sorted>:
342 set_report_generator_sort_options
350 get_current_sort_params
354 Methods delegating to C<Paginated>:
366 A GetModels object is in one of 3 states at any given time. Their purpose is to
367 make a class of bugs impossible that orginated from changing the configuration
368 of a GetModels object halfway during the request. This was a huge problem in
369 the old implementation.
375 This is the state after creating a new object.
379 In this state all the information needed from the source ($::form) has been read
380 and subsequent changes to the source have no effect. In the current
381 implementation this will happen during creation, so that the return value of
382 C<new> is already in state C<Init>.
386 In this state no new configuration will be accepted so that information gotten
387 through the various methods is consistent. Every information retrieval method
388 will trigger finalize.
395 Most of the configuration will be handed to GetModels on creation via C<new>.
396 This is a list of accepted params.
400 =item controller SELF
402 The creating controller. Currently this is mandatory.
406 The name of the model for this GetModels instance. If none is given, the model
407 is inferred from the name of the controller class.
409 =item list_action ACTION
411 If callbacks are generated, use this action instead of the current action.
412 Usually you can omit this. In case the reporting is done without redirecting
413 from a mutating action, this is necessary to have callbacks for paginating and
414 sorting point to the correct action.
418 =item paginated PARAMS
420 =item filtered PARAMS
422 Configuration for plugins. If the option for any plugin is omitted, it defaults
423 to enabled and is configured by default. Giving a falsish value as first argument
424 will disable the plugin.
426 If the value is a hashref, it will be passed to the plugin's C<init> method.
432 Additional static parts for Rose to include into the final query.
436 Source for plugins to pull their data from. Defaults to $::form.
440 =head1 BUGS AND CAVEATS
446 Delegation is not as clean as it should be. Most of the methods rely on action
447 at a distance and should be moved out.
