Given a unique id, find the user

Given an username (probably email address), find the user

Given a String representing the User ID, find the user

Append a DispatchPF function to LiftRules.dispatch. If the partial function is defined for a give Req it will construct a new Record based on the HTTP query string parameters and will pass this Record to the function returned by func parameter.

Encode a record instance into a JObject

Returns the JSON representation of inst record

Encode a record instance into a JValue

Returns the JSON representation of inst record, converts asJValue to JsObj

Based on a FieldPointer, build a FieldPointerBridge

Given a field pointer and an instance, get the field on that instance

Create a new instance of the User

Creates a new record

Creates a new record, setting the value of the fields from the original object but applying the new value for the specific field

The list of fields presented to the user for editing

Get a field by the field name

Defines the order of the fields in this record

Obtain the fields for a particular Record or subclass instance by passing the instance itself. (added 14th August 2009, Tim Perrett)

Set this to use your own form template when rendering a Record to a form.

This template is any given XHtml that contains three nodes acting as placeholders such as:

<lift:field_label name="firstName"/> - the label for firstName field will be rendered here
<lift:field name="firstName"/> - the firstName field will be rendered here (typically an input field)
<lift:field_msg name="firstName"/> - the  will be rendered here having the id given by
                                            uniqueFieldId of the firstName field.


Example.

Having:

class MyRecord extends Record[MyRecord] {

	def meta = MyRecordMeta

	object firstName extends StringField(this, "John")

}

object MyRecordMeta extends MyRecord with MetaRecord[MyRecord] {
 override def mutable_? = false
}

...

val rec = MyRecordMeta.createRecord.firstName("McLoud")

val template =
<div>
	<div>
		<div><lift:field_label name="firstName"/></div>
		<div><lift:field name="firstName"/></div>
		<div><lift:field_msg name="firstName"/></div>
	</div>
</div>

MyRecordMeta.formTemplate = Full(template)
rec.toForm((r:MyRecord) => println(r));

Create a record by decoding a JValue which must be a JObject

Create a record with fields populated with values from the JSON construct

Create a record with fields populated with values from the request

Make a new record instance. This method can be overridden to provide caching behavior or what have you.

Renamed from fields() due to a clash with fields() in Record. Use this method to obtain a list of fields defined in the meta companion objects. Possibly a breaking change? (added 14th August 2009, Tim Perrett)

Specifies if this Record is mutable or not

Prepend a DispatchPF function to LiftRules.dispatch. If the partial function is defined for a give Req it will construct a new Record based on the HTTP query string parameters and will pass this Record to the function returned by func parameter.

Attempt to decode a JValue, which must be a JObject, into a record instance

Set from a Json String using the lift-json parser

Populate the fields of the record with values from an existing record

Populate the fields of the record with values from the request

The list of fields presented to the user at sign-up

Returns the XHTML representation of inst Record. You must provide the Node template to represent this record in the proprietary layout.

Returns the XHTML representation of inst Record. If formTemplate is set, this template will be used otherwise a default template is considered.

Returns the HTML representation of inst Record.

Convert an instance of TheUserType to the Bridge trait

Validates the inst Record by calling validators for each field
