A Form Handler implementation

FormHandler

This is a Form Handler implementation which I used in combination with the Symfony Form component.

Click here to go to the blog post I wrote about the form handler.

Usage

Implement the FormHandlerInterface OR extend the AbstractFormHandler and implement the postProcess method.

You can use a try/catch to catch validation exceptions.

Example:

public function anActionInAController(Request $request)
{
    $formHandler = new MyFancyFormHandler($formFactory, $form);

    $form = $formHandler->form();

    if ($request->isMethod('POST') {
        try {
            $formHandler->process($form, $request);
        } catch (ValidationException $e) {
            // Do something with the validation... or not ;-) (and render the page including the validation errors)
        }
    }

    return $this->render('my_view.html.twig', ['form' => $form->createView()]);
}

formhandler's Issues

Release stable version

To release a stable version, please use git tag and push it to github

• Please choose a stable revision and navigate to there (if it's not HEAD)
  git checkout $revision
• Tag the revision with a version number and annotation
  git tag -a v1.0.0 -m 'Release v1.0.0'
• Push the tag to github to finalize it (if upstream is your remote, else use something like origin)
  git push upstream v1.0.0
• Go to packagist.org, log in, and press 'update'.

Composer should now be aware of a stable 1.0.0 release.

• ...
• Profit

Fix 5.4 compatibility

The ::class should be removed and instead the class name as a string should be used to check the instance of an object.

Implement Test Suite

It would be nice for a test suite to automatically test changes and report on breaking issues
