Class: CmseditController

Inherits:
DcApplicationController show all
Defined in:
app/controllers/cmsedit_controller.rb

Overview

This is main controller for processing actions by DRG forms. It provides CRUD actions for editing MongoDB documents. DRG CMS does not require controller to be made for every document model but centers all actions into single controller. Logic required to control data entry is provided within DRG forms which are loaded dynamically for every action.

Most of data entry controls must therefore be done in document models definitions. And there are controls that cannot be done in document models. Like controls which include url parameters or accessing session variables. This is hard to be done in model therefore cmsedit_controls had to be invented. cmsedit_controls are modules with methods that are injected into cmsedit_controller and act in runtime like they are part of cmsedit_controller.

Since Ruby and Rails provide some automagic loading of modules DRG CMS controls must be saved into app/controllers/drgcms_controls folder. Every model can have its own controls file. dc_page model’s controls live in dc_page_controls.rb file. If model has embedded document its control’s would be found in model_embedded_controls.rb. By convention module names are declared in camel case, so our dc_page_controls.rb declares DrgcmsControls::DcPageControls module.

Controls (among other) may contain 6 fixed callback methods. These methods are:

  • dc_new_record

  • dc_before_edit

  • dc_before_save

  • dc_after_save

  • dc_before_delete

  • dc_after_delete

Methods dc_before_edit, before_save or before_delete may also effect flow of the application. If method return false (not nil but FalseClass) normal flow of the program is interrupted and last operation is canceled.

Second control methods that can be declared in DRG CMS controls are filters for viewing and sorting documents. It is often required that dynamic filters are applied to result_set documents.

result_set:
  filter: current_users_documents

Example implemented controls method:

def current_users_documents
  if dc_user_can(DcPermission::CAN_READ)
    dc_page.where(created_by: session[:user_id])
  else
    flash[:error] = 'You can not perform this operation!'
    nil
  end
end

If filter method returns false user will be presented with flash error.
