sfFabulous Plugin - Form Ajax Binder for protoculous

The sfFabulousPlugin is a symfony plugin that provides an ajax validation mecanism for the new sfForm (symfony 1.1 and 1.2).

This plugin comes with:

• A generic method to Dispatch, Bind & Valid forms and extract the errors
• A piece of javascript/css to handle the JSON response and interact with the form
• A helper to provide a Quick & easy integration

Installation

• Install the plugin

   symfony plugin-install http://plugins.symfony-project.com/sfFabulousPlugin
  

• Enable the module in your settings.yml

  all:
     .settings:
       enabled_modules:      [default, ..., sfFabulous]

• Make the helper as standard in your settings.yml (optional, in case you want to use it anywhere)

  all:
      .settings:
        standard_helpers:       [I18N, ..., Fabulous]

• Regenerate relative symbolic links in the web/ directory (for web elements such as JS and CSS).

    symfony plugin:publish-assets
  

• Clear your cache

    symfony cc
  

Making it work!

Making the plugin work, is easy as:

      <?php echo fabulous_form_tag(url_for('@somewhere'), $html_options = array(), $form, $options_fabulous = array()); ?>

The helper use the standard $form->renderFormTag(). All you need is to had two extra params $form wich is your form object and a special options array $options_fabulous :

      * 'show_required_field'  : show required fields (default: false)
      * 'show_masks' : bind fields & masks (default: false)
      * 'complete_func' : javascript function to execute if form is valid (default: this.form.submit()). For example, if you want to submit your form via ajax: array('complete_func'=>'new Ajax.Updater("container...)

Dependencies

Form Ajax Binder for protoculous (sfFabulous) needs:

• sfProtoculousPlugin (bundle by default with sf1.2). Any other prototype (>1.6.XX) / scriptaculous (>1.8.XX) installation is fine.
• An dwCryptPlugin. Used to crypt form informations.

Features

• Auto focus the first error field
• Auto enabling/disabling when submiting the form
• Auto transform the text label for required fields (ie. Username* / Username (require))
• Insert a div error and change the class of the error field (ie red border input)
• Errors sent by HTTP headers (using X-JSON)
• Errors sent with the json format (light => performances) and auto eval by Prototype
• Multi states submit buttons

Demo

I'll post a link soon.

Todo

• Wait for scriptaculous 1.8.3. effect.shake impossible due to a callback bug. For more info, see: http://prototype.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8887/tickets/41-effect-shake-afterfinish-not-supported
• Provide a way to ease conf
• Render global errors

• Implement prototype masks / widgets (sfWidgetFormPhoneNumber -> js phone mask).

  Note: this release is in beta and is not recommended for production.
