I am trying to cancel validation in embedded forms based on a value from main form.
By default, embedded forms fields have validator option set to 'required'=>true. So it gets validated like that. If user leave any field blank, the form does not pass validation and blank fields get marked in template (different style).
What I am trying to do is to change option:"required" to false for all fields in embedded form.
I tried to do that in post validator callback method, but it seems that it is not possible that way.
The main form code:
class TestForma extends sfForm
{
public function configure()
{
$this->setWidgets(array(
'validate_items' => new sfWidgetFormChoice(array(
'choices' => array('no' => 'No', 'yes' => 'Yes'),
'multiple' => false,'expanded'=>true,'default' => 'no')),
));
$this->setValidators(array('validate_items' => new sfValidatorPass()));
$this->widgetSchema->setNameFormat('testforma[%s]');
$subForm = new sfForm();
for ($i = 0; $i < 2; $i++)
{
$form = new ItemForma();
$subForm->embedForm($i, $form);
}
$this->embedForm('items', $subForm);
$this->validatorSchema->setPostValidator(
new sfValidatorCallback(array('callback' => array($this, 'postValidate')))
);
}
Post-validator code:
public function postValidate($validator,$values)
{
$validatorSchema = $this->getValidatorSchema();
if($values['validate_items']=='no')
{
$itemsValidatorSchema = $validatorSchema['items'];
$itemsFieldsValidatorSchemes = $itemsValidatorSchema->getFields();
foreach($itemsFieldsValidatorSchemes as $itemValidatorScheme)
{
$itemValidatorScheme['color']->setOption('required',false);
$itemValidatorScheme['shape']->setOption('required',false);
}
}
return $values;
}
Embedded form class:
class ItemForma extends sfForm
{
public function configure()
{
$this->setWidgets(array(
'color' => new sfWidgetFormInputText(),
'shape' => new sfWidgetFormInput(),
));
$this->setValidators(array(
'color' => new sfValidatorString(array('required'=>true)),
'shape' => new sfValidatorEmail(array('required'=>true)),
));
$this->widgetSchema->setNameFormat('items[%s]');
}
}
Template code:
<form action="<?php echo url_for('weather/formiranje')?>" method="post">
<?php
foreach($form->getErrorSchema()->getErrors() as $e)
{
echo $e->__toString();
}
?>
<table>
<tfoot>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<input type="submit" value="OK" />
</td>
</tr>
</tfoot>
<tbody>
<tr><th>Main form</th></tr>
<tr><td><?php echo $form['validate_items']->renderLabel() ?>
<span class="<?php echo $form['validate_items']->hasError() ? 'rowError' : ''?>">
<?php echo $form['validate_items'] ?></span>
</td></tr>
<tr><td> </td></tr>
<tr><th>Embedded forms</th></tr>
<?php
foreach($form['items'] as $item)
{
?>
<tr>
<td><span class="<?php echo $item['color']->hasError() ? 'rowError' : ''?>">
<?php echo $item['color']->renderLabel() ?>
<?php echo $item['color'] ?></span>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><span class="<?php echo $item['shape']->hasError() ? 'rowError' : ''?>">
<?php echo $item['shape']->renderLabel() ?>
<?php echo $item['shape'] ?></span>
</td></tr>
<?php
}
echo $form['_csrf_token'];
?>
</tbody>
</table>
</form>
