[Form] Added code to use custom date_pattern
Current DateType doesn't make use of the `date_pattern` option. Added code to use the custom `date_pattern` if provided.

You should also pass the pattern option to the DateTimeToLocalizedStringTransformer so the pattern is taken in consideration when converting from and to localized string. You can check the commit I did on my repository (maoueh/symfony@01ae75dd84) which do the same as yours for the DateType but also includes the modification needed by the DateTimeToLocalizedStringTransformer class.
Not sure if there is more work needed to fully support the pattern option. Moreover, I did not run the tests to check if everything pass correctly. It would also be a good idea to add some tests to check that the date_pattern is working as expected.

There is also a problem with the regex, but this is not regarding the pattern option. If you set the 'format' option to 0, it returns the IntlDateFormatter::FULL but it does not pass the regex because there is first EEEE in the standard pattern so it comes on the fallback pattern year month day
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by kertz at 2011/05/02 23:36:05 -0700
Thanks for your suggestions @maoueh and @dot-i-fy, I will check them.
I found the `date_pattern` doesn't work when using text widget. I will try to fix this.

@kertz: It is working for me using the text widget on my development machine. Don't know what is the problem on our side but it is working correctly for me. I'm willing to help track this problem if you want. Just let me know.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by dot-i-fy at 2011/05/03 07:57:34 -0700
@kertz : It is also working for me, we just have to pay attention about the format to be used in the text input regarding IntlDateFormatter.

Ah well I guess I screwed up the whole commit log!

wow !
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by maoueh at 2011/05/03 11:23:51 -0700
Hell yeah! :) You should do a rebase the next time instead of merging Symfony master branch into yours:
`git rebase symfony/master date_pattern` and when you need to push your changes to your repository, do `git push -f origin date_pattern`. This way, it will be easier for the core team to handle the merge process.
Since @dot-i-fy opened a pull request for fixing the same issue as here, maybe it would be a good idea to close this PR?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by kertz at 2011/05/03 11:33:34 -0700
Well, it's done. I just pushed it a little earlier that I should have! Well I didn't know that @dot-i-fy opened a PR, where is it? This patch currently works for me.
Regarding the change in regex, well I think it should also have a ChoiceList for week days, otherwise it's not useful. Probably that alone can be a separate PR.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by maoueh at 2011/05/03 11:46:09 -0700
Yep it is much better now :) I think it would be a good idea to remove this commit from your PR kertz/symfony@e47cfb6d49.
The other PR is [PR751](https://github.com/symfony/symfony/pull/751). Maybe @dot-i-fy could change is PR so it will only be about the regex? In both cases, you should coordinate with each other I think.
Thanks for merging the changes I made to the DateTimeToLocalizedStringTransformer class.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by dot-i-fy at 2011/05/03 12:00:06 -0700
Yeah, I will modify my commit to take only the regex in account.
Would someone work with me on the TimeType ? The pattern is also not working there but it looks like a little bit more complicated!
Thanks

@kertz: I don't think it is strictly necessary to remove this commit. But I think it is a good idea since you kinda reverted it with some changes in a later commit. The core team might ask you to remove it. So leave it for now, and change it if they ask you to do so.
Hehe right, Coding Standards looks way better :)

@RapotOR : Are you talking about the dateType method in IntlDateFormatter ? If no can you make a snippet in gist with an example ?
If yes ...The option "format" already allows an IntlDateFormatter input, you can either set a \IntlDateFormatter::MEDIUM for example or an integer representing the dateType to use (0 -> full, 1 -> long, ... ).
The problem we are reveling here is the pattern based off the dateFormat option :
the $formatter look for Locale -> then for format option and based off these options he generate a pattern who can be different regarding the Locale. For example, for me I have my locale in php set to fr_BE, so my dates are always d-m-Y formatted but if I want to modify that it is momently not possible.
Grtz
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by RapotOR at 2011/05/04 00:57:03 -0700
@dot-i-fy : my thought was more about having a full control of IntlDateFormatter from outside; instead of defining every variables. It is more like a DI way... especially if you have more than one DateType field!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by dot-i-fy at 2011/05/04 01:11:21 -0700
Oh so, it may be indeed a nice way to follow. Don't hesitate to submit your code suggestions.
But I think that if we go deeper in the core modifications, it is maybe a solution to take the $formatter out of the dateType class and put it in a own class and call it from the dateType class ???@}#

by maoueh at 2011/05/05 08:22:40 -0700
@mweimerskirch: Maybe it would be better to rename your option html_pattern? Since the pattern is not strictly associated to a date type, it would be a better name in my opinion if it was named html_pattern or html5_pattern?
I think it would lead to more misunderstandings if we had a date_pattern and a pattern option. In both cases, I agree totally that one or the other needs a renaming. Moreover, if we change the pattern option in the date type, I think the format option should be changed also to date_format.
What do you think?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by kertz at 2011/05/05 23:58:21 -0700
@mweimerskirch
I too think when we specify `pattern` in `DateType` everyone expects it to be the date pattern. So maybe renaming the HTML5 pattern to `html_pattern` would be more appropriate?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by bschussek at 2011/05/18 12:20:56 -0700
Looks good. Why don't we reuse the "format" option for this? If "format" is not one of the predefined constants, we could treat it as a custom date format.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by maoueh at 2011/05/18 12:28:22 -0700
@bschussek: I think it is a good idea indeed. When I first played with forms, I thought that the purpose of the format option was exactly for this but I soon realized it wasn't. I'm +1 for this.
@kertz: Let me know if you don't have time to do this switch, I will gladly submit the changes to you own repo if we agree to use "format" option instead of the "pattern" one.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by dot-i-fy at 2011/05/18 12:33:33 -0700
``format`` and ``pattern`` options are related to the IntlDateFormatter, I also agree with you but we have to keep in mind that we will loose the symmetry with the IntlDateFormatter class.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by bschussek at 2011/05/18 13:39:07 -0700
I think we can safely add this level of abstraction.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

@maoueh Would be great if you can make the changes :)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

@bschussek : I saw you removed pattern option, what are further intentions ?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by maoueh at 2011/05/19 09:42:40 -0700
@kertz: I will do the changes needed tomorrow as I have some spare times. You will need to sync your branch with current master or I will need to send another PR since @bschussek removed the pattern option which will cause bad conflicts with this implementation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

@maoueh I've merged the changes.

by kertz at 2011/05/20 07:11:36 -0700
@maoueh I just removed a couple of commits from the log. Seems like the tests you committed are now missing from the PR. Can you please send the tests once again? Sorry about that.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by maoueh at 2011/05/20 09:03:52 -0700
@kertz: I will resend them along with the code modifications to use `format` instead of `pattern`.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by maoueh at 2011/05/20 19:11:28 -0700
I did the changes to make it possible to pass a custom pattern via the format option. I sent a PR on @kertz repository [here](https://github.com/kertz/symfony/pull/2) that will be merge eventually in this PR.
I have two small questions about it. First, since format option can now be a string, the allowed values for the option `format` have been removed from the array returned by `getAllowedOptionValues`. The check is done instead in the method `buildForm` directly. The 'format' option can be either one of the `IntlDateFormatter` constants (FULL, LONG, MEDIUM, or SHORT) or a string. If those conditions are not respected, a `FormException` is thrown. Is this correct?
When the `format` option is a custom pattern, the IntlDateFormatter needs a valid format even if it will not be used. So I retrieved the default format option by using the `getDefaultOptions` method. Is this correct or should I specify the default value directly:
this (specify directly):
$format = \IntlDateFormatter::MEDIUM;
instead of (use predefined defaults):
$defaultOptions = $this->getDefaultOptions($options);
$format = $defaultOptions['format'];
Also added more tests to verify that the format option is validated correctly and updated previous ones.
Regards,
Matt

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by mprizmic at 2011/06/16 14:06:47 -0700
what do you think about
$pattern = $form->getAttribute('pattern');
instead of
$pattern = $form->getAttribute('formatter')->getPattern();
in line 96 of
symfony/component/form/extension/core/type/datetype.php
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by maoueh at 2011/06/16 14:40:37 -0700
It is simpler to use the pattern of the formatter directly I think. The reason is that if the option to change the format is null, the default pattern of the formatter will be available and will be the right pattern to use. If the option is set, we modify the formatter before hand so getting the pattern from it will return the custom pattern we have set in the options.
So in both cases, no conditional is required to verify if it is set or not when retrieving the pattern from the formatter. Moreover, I think the pattern must be set as an attribute of the form for your suggestion to work correctly which is not the case right now.
Regards,
Matt

@fabpot What we do with that ? I have tried to rebase it with master, but my (Windows) git always gets insane and this ends up with unfixable error. This feature __should__ be in Symfony2 before final. Should I start work on it from "none" ?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by fabpot at 2011/07/06 05:44:26 -0700
@stloyd: I need to review the patch first.
* TimeType:
- seconds are no longer populated if "with_seconds" = false
- "widget = text" is now properly rendered (closes#1480)
* DateTimeToStringTransformer:
- fixed using not default "format" (probably fix#1183)
* DateType, DateTimeType, TimeType:
- fixed "input = datetime" and test covered
- a bit changed readability

[Form] Added support for additional attributes
Added support for additional attributes in Form types that list field as their parent.
This is needed particularity for html5 data and data- attributes support, unfortunately $options['data'] is already taken, so adding a general $options['attributes'] is the easiest solution without breaking BC.
Now I know that this will be tempting for some to stuck style and class attributes here also, but I'd rather not restrict the keys that are passed in.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by Seldaek at 2011/05/22 14:51:02 -0700
Maybe it should be called attr for consistency with the template stuff, or the other should be renamed attributes. Other than that, I'm +1, data-* attributes are awesome, and abusers will find ways to abuse things either way.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by mvrhov at 2011/05/22 21:48:01 -0700
Naming it attr also crossed my mind when I was signing off yesterday.
Along with the possibility to go the way xml attributes are handled when node is converted to/from array.
So every option with @ prefix would automatically become html attribute. However going the latter path, it'd be harder to implement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by fabpot at 2011/06/13 07:43:52 -0700
Can you give an example of a real-world use case? Thanks.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by Seldaek at 2011/06/13 07:54:51 -0700
You can use `array('attr' => array('data-foo' => 'bar'))`, which will output `data-foo="bar"`, which can be read easily by jQuery for example as `$('el').data('foo')`. It's a standard compliant and elegant way to pass extra data needed by the JS code along with DOM nodes, without polluting everything with script tags and all.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by fabpot at 2011/06/13 08:01:08 -0700
@Seldaek: I understand that. But why not doing this in the template?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by Seldaek at 2011/06/13 08:04:10 -0700
Well, I agree it most likely belongs in the template, but it's kind of data stuff that is not directly impacting the display rules of the element, so in some cases having the possibility to set that from the php code might be useful. Anyway I'll let @mvrhov answer maybe he had a more concrete use case. I just think it's nice to leave the door open, but I don't really need it.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by mvrhov at 2011/06/13 10:27:03 -0700
A bit late to the party. Ok, here is my use-case.
I have a pretty large form where part of the data is of tabular form. The number of rows is almost every time a lot larger than the number of columns
So I can either output a lot of text inputs filled with data and make already a large form intimidating. Or I can use a grid that supports editing. So I serialize that tabular data as json and put it as a value into one hidden field. Somehow I also have to get the column definitions to that grid. I decided to I serialize it and put it inside data-* attribute. Putting it into another hidden field doesn't make sense as when data is submitted back I don't need the column definitions as only the number of rows changes.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by fabpot at 2011/06/13 10:44:58 -0700
@mvrhov: ok, but what prevents you from doing this in the template directly?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by mvrhov at 2011/06/13 11:22:53 -0700
I have to get it into the view somehow. What I'd really not like to do is, iterate through that data in a controller and then pass it as another template variable.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by fabpot at 2011/06/14 00:10:22 -0700
But the controller is where you prepare the data that you want to send to the view. Without any concrete example, I'm going to close this PR.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by mvrhov at 2011/06/14 01:21:10 -0700
IMHO this has to go out through form as this is the part of the form also I do have a very slim controllers in this case 10 LOC, where half of them is just setting up an view data..
Nonetheless I went looking again very closely at the AbstractType and I do have buildView function available which I can override and set the column data I need there, and then provide custom view for that, so at least from this part this is an non issue.
With this PR all default form attributes can be set from outside and when searching for a good use-case I have found out that @henrikbjorn has implemented this via extensions [1], maybe he has a good use-case for this.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by stof at 2011/06/14 02:08:09 -0700
@fabpot The issue is that passing it from the controller as another template variable makes it really hard when you use the type twice with different values. Passing them from the form would be the easiest way

by shuogawa at 2011/06/14 19:37:50 -0700
hello. thanks for great form library.
I want to support two ways to display additional attributes for form elements.
1) control in template like
{{ form_row(form.name, { 'width': '30' }) }}
2) control from php
$builder->add('name', 'text', array('attr'=>array('width'=>'30')));
If form elements configure by end user like cms,
and form elements dynamically change.
The second method is useful.
template designer can write {{form_row(form)}}
but
template designer can not write {{form_row(form.name), { 'width': '30' }}}
Thank you
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by fabpot at 2011/06/14 23:01:18 -0700
@shuogawa: That's what I fear. Setting the `width` or any other attribute in PHP is wrong. This belongs to the templates.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by stloyd at 2011/06/15 00:09:05 -0700
@fabpot Then maybe just restrict allowed tags to `data-*` and don't use `attr` but some other not confusing name ? Just like we do with i.e. `maxlength`.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by fabpot at 2011/06/15 04:44:25 -0700
I'm going to merge it as a "convenience" tool, but the documentation should clearly state that the only usage should be for `data-*` attributes.

[Form] Make the prototype view child of the collection view
This PR should be a base for discussion.
The [current implementation](https://github.com/symfony/symfony/pull/1188) has some drawbacks because the prototype view is not a child of the collection view:
* The 'multipart' attribute is not propagated from the prototype to the collection,
* The prototype view do not use the theme from the collection.
Those 2 points are fixed by the proposed implementation and one more benefit is that the template markup might be easier to work with:
before:
```html
<div id="form_emails">
<div>
<label for="form_emails_0">0</label>
<input type="email" id="form_emails_0" name="form[emails][0]" value="a@b.com">
</div>
<script type="text/html" id="form_emails_prototype">
<div>
<label for="$$name$$">$$name$$</label>
<input type="email" id="$$name$$" name="$$name$$" value="" />
</div>
</script>
</div>
```
after:
```html
<div id="form_emails">
<div>
<label for="form_emails_0">0</label>
<input type="email" id="form_emails_0" name="form[emails][0]" value="a@b.com">
</div>

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by fabpot at 2011/06/14 07:09:46 -0700
The templates are much better but I'm a bit concerned that we need to add the logic into the Form class directly. That looks quite ugly. If there is no other way, I will merge it.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by vicb at 2011/06/14 07:42:07 -0700
@kriswallsmith tried and dismissed, the id and name are bad & you have to go for `render_widget(form.get('proto'))` in the template. That should be fixeable but not any better.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by kriswallsmith at 2011/06/14 07:45:21 -0700
What do you mean the id and name are bad? If we have a distinct type for the prototype, can't we do whatever we want using buildView() and the template?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by vicb at 2011/06/14 07:53:31 -0700
@kriswallsmith the id would be smthg like `form_emails_$$name$$_prototype` but yes we should be able to do whatever we want but the code might end up being more complex.
I am done with the tweaks but still open to feedback on this PR.

That should be the id of the `<input>`, the id of the script would be `form_emails_$$name$$_prototype_prototype` (if prototype is the name of the nested node).
I am trying to setup a branch with my code (playing with git & netbeans local history)

@kriswallsmith https://github.com/vicb/symfony/tree/kris/proto if that can help (there are still changes in Form.php)

Thanks, I'll take a look.

I would have expected it to be faster however `array_map` is about twice slower... reverted !
* kriswallsmith/form/collection-proto:
added script[type="text/html"] collection prototype to form themes
[Form] removed collection prototype from form tree
