Redirect form data to another component

[Giacomo Lamonaco]

Hi all,

I'm having some troubles with hippo forms. Initially a defined a form in a specific page:

<@hst.actionURL var="actionLink"/>

<form action="${actionLink}" method="post">

 <!-- form fields here -->

</form>

If I persist form data in the component (component-1),  I am able to retrieve data from the doBeforeRender() method:

Component-1.java
public void doAction(..){
..
FormMap map = new FormMap(request, new String[]{"inputFieldName"});
FormUtils.persistFormMap(request, response, map, null);
..
}

public void doBeforeRender(..){
..

FormMap map = new FormMap();

FormUtils.populate(request, map);

..
}

Now I would to define a similar form that is rendered by another component (component-2): once this form has been submitted, I would to redirect form data from component-2 to component-1.

I tried to to store form data and then perform a sendRedirect 

Component-2.java

public void doAction(..) {
        ..

try {     

   HstLinkCreator linkCreator = request.getRequestContext().getHstLinkCreator();

   HstLink link = linkCreator.createByRefId("myRefId", request.getRequestContext().getResolvedMount().getMount());

   String location = link.toUrlForm(request.getRequestContext(), false);

   

   FormMap map = new FormMap(request, new String[]{"myData"});

   FormUtils.persistFormMap(request, response, map, null);

         

   response.sendRedirect(location);

} catch (IOException ex) {

   LOG.error("Error");

}

}

Unfortunately, from component-1 I'm not able to retrieve form data. 

Can you help me?

Thanks for your attention

Hi,

you could try to add "u_u_i_d" parameter of your form to location object, so you could read form data again (unless you sealed your form data, in that case it is not readable anymore)

cheers

Hi, 

thanks for your reply. I set the "u_u_i_d" parameter in component-2 using the response object

myParamtersMap.add(FormUtils.DEFAULT_UUID_NAME, ((HstResponseImpl) response).getRenderParameters().get(FormUtils.DEFAULT_UUID_NAME))

then, from component-1 I am able to retrieve form data from the servlet request (and not from the request it self !)

public void doBeforeRender(..){

FormMap map = new FormMap();

FormUtils.populate(request.getRequestContext().getServletRequest(), map);

Thanks!
