Borges future

ruby-talk
1

I’m playing with Borges 0.1.0. I’m just slowly going into.

While learning and writting some simple examples, I found that some
features are missing. For instance while trying to implement login
example I found that it is not possible use input filed of type
password (without doing changes to class Renderer)

Before trying make some patches I need to know the right way, and
possible look into Seaside2.

Should the password input field be implemented as a separate method of
Renderer ( Renderer.password_input ) or will be better to rewrite
methods another way in that class?

Will there be a cvs for borges in near future somewhere?

The actual login example file ‘login.rb’ is:
#!/usr/bin/env ruby

require 'borges’
require ‘borges/Page’

include Borges

class Login < Page
def initialize
@username = nil
@password = nil
end

def render_on(r)
    r.heading 'Login'
r.form do
    r.print "Name:"
    r.text_input(''){|n| @username = n; puts "*> n= #{n}"}
    r.print "<br>Password:"
    r.text_input(''){|n| @password = n; puts "*> n= #{n}"}
    r.print "<br>"
    r.submit({'value'=>'Login'}) {login}
end
end

def login()
puts "*> Login as #{@username} with #{@password}"
end

end

Borges::register_application(“login”, Login)

if $0 == FILE then
require 'borges/Webrick’
Borges::WebrickConnection.start({:Port=>7000})
end
#EOF

Congratulations! You’re the first person to send email about Borges!

While learning and writting some simple examples, I found that some
features are missing. For instance while trying to implement login
example I found that it is not possible use input filed of type
password (without doing changes to class Renderer)

Suggestions and patches welcome :slight_smile:

This should be added to the interface. I’ve only been modifying Borges
as-needed, and haven’t come across such a need just yet. A
password_input method should be something like:

untested

def password_input(value, attrs={}, &update)
attrs[“value”] = value
attrs[“name”] = @callbacks.register_callback(update)
input(“text”, attrs)
end

Will there be a cvs for borges in near future somewhere?

There is, but its on my home box, so I’d like to keep traffic to a
minimum. If you’d like an account, send me a private mail.
