What's the best form-generating/processing library for Catalyst, assuming I
don't need
to worry about old baggage and can move forward with the latest and greatest
stuff?
It depends on what you prefer.
The best and most used seem to be HTML::FormFu and HTML::FormHandler.
I'm quite happy with Rose::HTML::Form because I like having forms as classes. It also was
one of the fastest form solutions back when we evaluated the candidates. Nowadays, I'd
probably give HTML::FormHandler a try, mainly because it also follows the "every
form is a class" approach (which IMHO is *much* better than having your forms
defined in YAML files).
In addition to the documentation on CPAN, the wiki contains some
information on those three form handlers too:
HTML::FormFu
http://wiki.catalystframework.org/wiki/howtos/forms/formfu
http://wiki.catalystframework.org/wiki/FormFu_FAQ
HTML::FormHandler
http://wiki.catalystframework.org/wiki/howtos/forms/hfh
http://wiki.catalystframework.org/wiki/hfh_faq
Rose::HTML
http://wiki.catalystframework.org/wiki/rhtmlo
By the way: As you begin using one of them if you run across anything
you think those pages should have contained, feel free to edit them, or
send me an email and I'll be happy to (they're on my radar to be better
interlinked, and cleaned up a bit).
