class Marten::Handlers::Schema

Overview

Handler allowing to process a form through the use of a schema.

This handler can be used to process a form and validate its data through the use of a schema. It is expected that the handler will be accessed through a GET request first: when this happens the configured template is rendered and displayed, and the configured schema which is initialized can be accessed from the template context in order to render a form for example. When the form is submitted via a POST request, the configured schema is validated using the form data. If the data is valid, the handler returns an HTTP redirect to a configured success URL.

class MyFormHandler < Marten::Handlers::Schema
  schema MyFormSchema
  template_name "my_form.html"
  success_route_name "my_form_success"
end

It should be noted that the redirect response issued will be a 302 (found).

The schema used to perform the validation can be defined through the use of the #schema class method. Alternatively, the #schema_class method can also be overridden to dynamically define the schema class as part of the request handling.

The #template_name class method allows to define the name of the template to use to render the schema while the #success_route_name method can be used to specify the name of a route to redirect to once the schema has been validated. Alternatively, the #sucess_url class method can be used to provide a raw URL to redirect to. The same method can also be overridden at the instance level in order to rely on a custom logic to generate the sucess URL to redirect to.

Class Method Detail

def self.schema(schema : Marten::Schema.class | Nil) #

Allows to configure the schema class that should be used to process request data.


[View source]
def self.schema : Marten::Schema.class | Nil #

Returns the configured schema class.


[View source]
def self.success_route_name(success_route_name : String | Nil) #

Allows to set the route name that should be resolved to produce the URL to when processing a valid schema.


[View source]
def self.success_route_name : String | Nil #

Returns the route name that should be resolved to produce the URL to redirect to when processing a valid schema.

Defaults to nil.


[View source]
def self.success_url(success_url : String | Nil) #

Allows to configure a raw URL to redirect to when processing a valid schema.


[View source]
def self.success_url : String | Nil #

Returns the configured raw URL to redirect when processing a valid schema.

Defaults to nil.

Instance Method Detail

def context #
Description copied from class Marten::Handlers::Template

Returns a hash containing the template context or nil.

The default implementation returns nil.


[View source]
def post #
Description copied from class Marten::Handlers::Base

Handles a POST HTTP request and returns a Marten::HTTP::Response object.

The default implementation will return a 405 (not allowed) response.


[View source]
def process_invalid_schema #

Produces the response when the processed schema is invalid.

By default, this will render the configured template and return a corresponding HTTP response.


[View source]
def process_valid_schema #

Produces the response when the processed schema is valid.

By default, this will return a 302 redirect targetting the configured success URL.


[View source]
def put #
Description copied from class Marten::Handlers::Base

Handles a PUT HTTP request and returns a Marten::HTTP::Response object.

The default implementation will return a 405 (not allowed) response.


[View source]
def schema #

Returns the schema, initialized using the request data.


[View source]
def schema_class #

Returns the schema class that should be used by the handler.


[View source]
def success_url #

Returns the URL to redirect to after the schema has been validated and processed.

By default, the URL will be determined from the configured #success_url and #success_route_name values. This method can be overridden on subclasses in order to define any arbitrary logics that might be necessary in order to determine the schema success URL.
