|
9 .. Note: |
|
10 |
|
11 Form is the glue that bind a context to a set of fields, and is rendered |
|
12 using a form renderer. No display is actually done here, though you'll find |
|
13 some attributes of form that are used to control the rendering process. |
|
14 |
|
15 Besides the automagic form we'll see later, they are barely two form |
|
16 classes in |cubicweb|: |
|
17 |
|
18 .. autoclass:: cubicweb.web.views.forms.FieldsForm |
|
19 .. autoclass:: cubicweb.web.views.forms.EntityFieldsForm |
|
20 |
|
21 As you have probably guessed, choosing between them is easy. Simply ask you the |
|
22 question 'I am editing an entity or not?'. If the answer is yes, use |
|
23 :class:`EntityFieldsForm`, else use :class:`FieldsForm`. |
|
24 |
|
25 Actually there exists a third form class: |
|
26 |
|
27 .. autoclass:: cubicweb.web.views.forms.CompositeForm |
|
28 |
|
29 but you'll use this one rarely. |
