NAME

HTML::FormFu::Constraint::Callback - Code Callback Constraint

SYNOPSIS

$field->constraint({
    type => 'Callback',
    callback => \&foo,
});

---
elements:
  - type: Text
    name: foo
    constraints:
      - type: Callback
        callback: "main::my_constraint"

sub foo {
    my ( $value, $params ) = @_;

    # return true or false
}

DESCRIPTION

The first argument passed to the callback is the submitted value for the associated field. The second argument passed to the callback is a hashref of name/value pairs for all input fields.

This constraint doesn't honour the not() value.

METHODS

callback

Arguments: \&code-reference

Arguments: "subroutine-name"

SEE ALSO

Is a sub-class of, and inherits methods from HTML::FormFu::Constraint

HTML::FormFu

LIMITATIONS

The callback code-ref is copied internally using "dclone" in Storable. It seems that because of this, the coderef does not act as a true closure, and cannot refer to variables and subroutines that would otherwise be in scope. This need further investigation.
