🦋 HTML::FormFu::Constraint::MinMaxFields — the manual, but make it make sense

okay bestie, you found the perl docs for HTML::FormFu::Constraint::MinMaxFields, which lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation section of the manual (that's the (3pm) situation, iykyk). It's a Min/Max Multi-field Constraint, and honestly? it's giving "count your friends and make sure you have enough but not too many." Let's go. 💅

✨ VERSION ✨

version 2.07 — yes, that's the one, no cap.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

type: MinMaxFields
name: foo
others: [bar, baz]
min: 1
max: 1

that's the whole vibe right there. foo is your main character, bar and baz are the supporting cast, and you're telling the form "hey, between 1 and 1 of these should actually be filled in." periodt. 🎀

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So what does this thing actually do? It makes sure that at least a minimum number of fields are present, and only a maximum number of fields are present. Like a bouncer for your form. 💪

⚠️ important lore: this constraint doesn't honour the not() value. So if you were hoping to flip it, uh, no. It said no. 🙈

✨ METHODS ✨

minimum / min 🌸

The minimum number of named fields which must be filled in.

min is an alias for minimum. two names, one job, we love an efficient icon. 👑

maximum / max 🔥

The maximum number of named fields which must be filled in.

max is an alias for maximum.

And the default for max? It's the number of all affected fields — in other words, one more than the number of elements given to others. so if you don't set it, it's basically like "sure babe, all of them, go off." ✨

attach_errors_to_base 💖

Default Value: 1

attach_errors_to_others 🫶

Default Value: 0
