Description
Common core interface model methods
Subroutines/Methods
COMPONENT
Defines the following accessors:
- scrubbing
-
Boolean used by "query_array" and "query_value" to determine if input value should be cleaned of potentially dangerous characters
- scrub_chars
-
List of characters to scrub from input values. Defaults to '"/\;
Loads model plugins including;
ACCEPT_CONTEXT
Calls "build_per_context_instance" for each new context
build_per_context_instance
Called by "ACCEPT_CONTEXT". Takes a copy of the Catalyst object so that we don't have to pass $c->stash
into "loc" in CatalystX::Usul
check_field
$self->check_field( $id, $val );
Expose "check_field" in Data::Validation
check_form
$self->check_form( \%fields );
Expose "check_form" in Data::Validation
form
$self->form( @rest );
Calls the form method to stuff the stash with the data for the requested form. Uses the $c->stash->{form}->{name}
value to construct the method name
loc
$local_text = $self->loc( $key, $args );
Localizes the message. Calls "loc" in CatalystX::Usul
query_array
$array_ref = $self->query_array( $attr );
Returns the requested parameter in a list context. Uses the encoding attribute to generate the method call to decode the input values. The decode method is provided by CatalystX::Usul::Encoding. Will try to guess the encoding if one is not provided
query_value
$scalar_value = $self->query_value( $attr );
Returns the requested parameter in a scalar context. Uses encoding attribute to generate the method call to decode the input value. The decode method is provided by CatalystX::Usul::Encoding. Will try to guess the encoding if one is not provided
query_value_by_fields
$hash_ref = $self->query_value_by_fields( @fields );
Returns a hash_ref of fields and their values if the values are defined by the request. Calls "query_value" for each of supplied fields
scrub
$value = $self->scrub( $value );
Removes the $self->scrub_chars
from the value
_get_req_array
my $array_ref = $self->_get_req_array( $attr );
Takes a request object that must implement a params
method which returns a hash ref. The method returns the value for $attr
from that hash. This method will always return a array ref. This method is wrapped by "mk_encoding_methods" in Catalystx::Usul::Encoding and as such is not called directly
_get_req_value
my $value = $self->_get_req_value( $attr );
Takes a request object that must implement a params
method which returns a hash ref. The method returns the value for $attr
from that hash. This method will always return a scalar. This method is wrapped by "mk_encoding_methods" in Catalystx::Usul::Encoding and as such is not called directly
