Where do I require docForm from?

[Jofan]

Hi,

I'm trying to get Sofa up and running but get a message when I access
the new post page:
"docForm has been moved to vendor/couchapp/lib/docForm.js, use
app.require to load"

I can see that this is sent from jquery.couch.app.js file, and that
app.docForm is used in edit.html.

I've tried requiring it from edit.html, and while that removes the
alert nothing is saved to the database. I've also tried to require it
from other files but no luck so far. Is there someone that has Sofa
running on couchApp 0.7.0, that could guide me to a solution?

Thanks
/Stefan

If anybody else run into the same problem I can tell you that I was
able to require it from edit.html by updating docform.js so that it
"exports" the function docForm. See lib/blog in Sofa for an example of
en export.

Cheers

I place the following at the bottom of my sofa/vendor/couchapp/lib/
docform.js
Just thought I'd ask if this is what you did:

exports.docForm = function(formSelector, opts) {
return docForm(formSelector, opts);
}

This made it work for me after massaging edit.html by:

$("#tagcloud").evently(tagcloud, this);
NEW>>> var docForm = app.require("vendor/couchapp/lib/docform");

...

MODIFIED>>> postForm = docForm.docForm("form#new-post", {

The problem is that although that can remove the alert nothing was
save to database! I tried to fix it with no avail.

Not try to be negative or make other mad but I kinda lost faith in
couchdb. I feel like it is still immature and not ready for production
code.

I did make further changes to get the edits to save properly.

Basically it's making the app object available in the docform closure.

In docform.js changed all occurrences of:

db. -> opts.app.db.

In edit.html add the app as a var passed to docform:

postForm = docForm.docForm("form#new-post", {

id : {{ docid }},
>>> NEW app : app,

Hope this helps.

I've been trying to clone my version of sofa up to couchone, or
cloudant and having problems with both at the moment or I'd just point
you to that.

I just updated Sofa so it no longer uses docForm.

That code was never any good. Sorry I wrote it in the first place. The new edit.html is much better.

Hi where can I get your latest codes ? I just run "couchapp clone
http://jchrisa.net:5984/drl/_design/sofa" again and docform.js is
still there.

Thanks.

I have tested your fix. It works. Thank you Chris!

So maybe you can update the chapter "storing document" of the
definitive guide as well :)

Does that mean docform is now somewhat deprecated and we shouldn't use
it too?

I heard there is someone working on spiffing it up. I think it could
probably be really useful but I think the problem of managing forms is
too big for CouchApp to tackle.

I'm trying to pare it down to the bare minimum so I can ship it with CouchDB.
