return validated field on fs.sync as a dictionary #55

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
It would be nice if fs.validate() would return all "pythonized" fields and
fs.sync() would return all updated fields.

Hmm.

Validate doesn't do anything special.  (This isn't formencode.)  You can get 
the submitted, deserialized value with 
fs.fieldname.value.

I could see adding a .changes() method or something, but I don't like shoving 
it into sync.

.changes() would be great.

this is very useful for various reasons, for example sending emails to users 
based on
some database changes.

after further thought I don't see a compelling reason to build this into FA.

you can easily write your own changes method:

def changes(fs):
  return dict((key, value) for key, value in fs.render_fields.items() if value !=
getattr(fs.model, key))
