how to pass in dynamic data to decorators
- by steve
Hi,
I am trying to write a base crud controller class that does the
following:
class BaseCrudController:
model = ""
field_validation = {}
template_dir = ""
@expose(self.template_dir)
def new(self, *args, **kwargs)
....
@validate(self.field_validation, error_handler=new)
@expose()
def post(self, *args, **kwargs):
...
My intent is to have my controllers extend this base class, set the
model, field_validation, and template locations, and am ready to go.
Unfortunately, decorators (to my understanding), are interpreted when
the function is defined. Hence it won't have access to instance's
value. Is there a way to pass in dynamic data or values from the sub
class?
If not, I guess I could use override_template as a workaround to
expose and set the template within the controller action. How would I
go about validating the form within the controller action?
Thanks,
Steve
