HTML::...ndJoin(3pm)

💖 HTML::FormFu::Filter::CompoundJoin 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the User Contributed Perl Documentation page for HTML::FormFu::Filter::CompoundJoin(3pm) — yes that's a whole mouthful, we're just gonna call it the CompoundJoin filter, periodt ✨

---

✨ NAME ✨

HTML::FormFu::Filter::CompoundJoin — the CompoundJoin filter, and that's the whole vibe 🌸

---

🌟 VERSION 🌟

version 2.07 — she's got lore, she's got history, she's iconic 💅

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

here's the whole setup, copy it, don't tweak it, it's perfect:

---
element:
  - type: Multi
    name: address

    elements:
      - name: number
      - name: street

    filter:
      - type: CompoundJoin

and then, to actually get the compound-value back out:

# get the compound-value

my $address = $form->param_value('address');

like... param_value('address') and boom, the joined-up value is yours 🫶

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so lowkey the whole point: this filter is for use with a HTML::FormFu::Element::Multi group of fields. that's it, that's the assignment.

what does it actually do? it joins the input from several fields into a single value. several little inputs walk in, one single value walks out. main character energy fr fr 👑

---

💜 METHODS 💜

💫 join

• Arguments: $string
• Default Value: ' '

this is the string used to join the individually submitted parts. and if you don't say anything? defaults to a single space. so "123" + "Main St" becomes "123 Main St" — cute, tidy, no notes 🌈

---

🌸 field_order

Inherited. bestie, go read "field_order" in HTML::FormFu::Filter::_Compound for the full details, we're not re-explaining it here, we're just showing you the glow-up 💅

---
element:
  - type: Multi
    name: address

    elements:
      - name: street
      - name: number

    filter:
      - type: CompoundJoin
        field_order:
          - number
          - street

see how the elements are listed street then number, but field_order flips it to number then street? yeah. you control the order. you're in charge. slay 💖
