218 Building a CRUD controller would be easy, were it not for those stupid
219 list actions. People unreasonable expect stuff like filtering, sorting,
220 paginating, exporting etc simply to work. Well, lets try to make it simply work
223 This class is a proxy between a controller and specialized
224 helper modules that handle these things (sorting, paginating etc) and gives you
225 the means to retrieve the information when needed to display sort headers or
228 Information about the requested data query can be stored into the object up to
229 a certain point, from which on the object becomes locked and can only be
230 accessed for information. (See C<STATES>).
232 =head1 INTERFACE METHODS
238 Create a new GetModels object. Params must have at least an entry
239 C<controller>, other than that, see C<CONFIGURATION> for options.
243 Retrieve all models for the current configuration. Will finalize the object.
245 =item get_models_url_params SUB
247 Register a sub to be called whenever an URL has to be generated (e.g. for sort
248 and pagination links). This is a way for the controller to add additional
249 parameters to the URL (e.g. for filter parameters).
251 The parameter can be either a code reference or the name of
252 one of the controller's functions.
254 The value returned by C<SUB> must be either a single hash
255 reference or a hash of key/value pairs to add to the URL.
259 Returns a URL suitable for use as a callback parameter. It maps to the
260 current controller and action. All registered handlers of type
261 'callback' (e.g. the ones by C<Sorted> and C<Paginated>) can inject
262 the parameters they need so that the same list view as is currently
263 visible can be re-rendered.
265 Optional C<%params> passed to this function may override any parameter
266 set by the registered handlers.
268 =item enable_plugin PLUGIN
270 =item disable_plugin PLUGIN
272 =item is_enabled_plugin PLUGIN
274 Enable or disable the specified plugin. Useful to disable paginating for
275 exports for example. C<is_enabled_plugin> can be used to check the current
278 Must not be finalized to use this.
282 Forces finalized state. Can be used on finalized objects without error.
284 Note that most higher functions will call this themselves to force a finalized
285 state. If you do use it it must come before any other finalizing methods, and
286 will most likely function as a reminder or maintainers where your codes
287 switches from configuration to finalized state.
291 The source for user supplied information. Defaults to $::form. Changing it
292 after C<Base> phase has no effect.
294 =item controller CONTROLLER
296 A weakened link to the controller that created the GetModels object. Needed for
297 certain plugin methods.
301 =head1 DELEGATION METHODS
303 All of these finalize.
305 Methods delegating to C<Sorted>:
311 set_report_generator_sort_options
319 get_current_sort_params
323 Methods delegating to C<Paginated>:
335 A GetModels object is in one of 3 states at any given time. Their purpose is to
336 make a class of bugs impossible that orginated from changing the configuration
337 of a GetModels object halfway during the request. This was a huge problem in
338 the old implementation.
344 This is the state after creating a new object.
348 In this state every information needed from the source ($::form) has been read
349 and subsequent changes to the source have no effect. In the current
350 implementation this will happen during creation, so that the return value of
351 C<new> is already in state C<Init>.
355 In this state no new configuration will be accepted so that information gotten
356 through the various methods is consistent. Every information retrieval method
357 will trigger finalize.
364 Most of the configuration will be handed to GetModels on creation via C<new>.
365 This is a list of accepted params.
369 =item controller SELF
371 The creating controller. Currently this is mandatory.
375 The name of the model for this GetModels instance. If none is given, the model
376 is inferred from the name of the controller class.
380 =item paginated PARAMS
382 =item filtered PARAMS
384 Configuration for plugins. If the option for any plugin is omitted, it defaults
385 to enabled and configured by default. Giving a falsish value as first argument
386 will disable the plugin.
388 If the value is a hashref, it will be passed to the plugin's C<init> method.
394 Additional static parts for Rose to include into the final query.
398 Source for plugins to pull their data from. Defaults to $::form.
402 =head1 BUGS AND CAVEATS
408 Delegation is not as clean as it should be. Most of the methods rely on action
409 at a distance and should be moved out.
