HTML::...t::File(3pm)

💖 HTML::FormFu::Element::File — the tea ☕

okay bestie, so this is a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation set, and it's the manual for HTML::FormFu::Element::File (section 3pm, so it's a Perl module page, iykyk). It's all about a file upload form field and honestly? it's giving practical. let's get into it ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

HTML::FormFu::Element::File — the file upload form field. yes, that's literally it. that's the whole job. a field where you upload a file. iconic behaviour, no notes 💅

---

🎀 VERSION 🎀

version 2.07

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the vibe in YAML form, a whole config block, look at her go:

---
elements:
  type: File
  name: photo

then in your Perl, you grab the param like so:

my $photo = $form->param('photo');

my $blob = $photo->slurp;

and boom, $photo is your uploaded file object and $blob is the actual bytes. slay 🫶

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

it's a file upload form field. that's the whole thing. it does one job and it does it well, periodt.

but here's the important part — the behaviour depends on the query_type you're using, so go read the docs for whichever one is yours, fr fr:

• HTML::FormFu::QueryType::CGI
• HTML::FormFu::QueryType::Catalyst
• HTML::FormFu::QueryType::CGI::Simple

---

💅 METHODS 💅

so… there are no methods documented here. nothing. not a single one. the section exists and it is empty, and honestly that's a mood. whatever methods this thing has, it's inheriting them from its parent classes (see below 👇), so go look there bestie 💀

---

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

this one is a sub-class, and it inherits methods from all of these:

• HTML::FormFu::Role::Element::Input
• HTML::FormFu::Role::Element::Field
• HTML::FormFu::Element

also go check out:

• HTML::FormFu
