=head1 NAME

HTML::FormFu::Element - Element Base Class

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    ---
    elements:
      - type: Text
        name: username
        constraints:
          - type: Required
      
      - type: Password
        name: password
        constraints:
          - type: Required
          - type: Equal
            others: repeat-password
      
      - type: Password
        name: repeat-password
      
      - type: Submit

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Elements are the basic building block of all forms. Elements may be logical 
form-fields, blocks such as C<div>s and C<fieldset>s, non-blocks such as 
C<hr>s and other special elements such as tables.

For simple, automatic handling of fieldsets see the 
L<HTML::FormFu/auto_fieldset> setting.

See L<HTML::FormFu/deflators> for details of 
L<Deflators|HTML::FormFu::Deflator>.

See L<HTML::FormFu/FORM LOGIC AND VALIDATION> for details of 
L<Filters|HTML::FormFu::Filter>, 
L<Constraints|HTML::FormFu::Constraint>, 
L<Inflators|HTML::FormFu::Inflator>, 
L<Validators|HTML::FormFu::Validator> and 
L<Transformers|HTML::FormFu::Transformer>.

=head1 METHODS

=head2 name

For L<field|HTML::FormFu::Element::_Field> element, this value is used as 
the C<name> attribute which the field's value is associated with.

For all elements, the L</name> value can be useful for identifying and 
retrieving specific elements.

=head2 is_field

Return Value: boolean

Returns C<true> or C<false> depending on whether the element is a logical 
form-field.

This is used by L<HTML::FormFu/get_fields>.

=head1 BUILDING AN ELEMENT

=head2 load_config_file

Arguments: $filename

Arguments: \@filenames

Populate an element using a config file:

    ---
    elements:
      - type: Block
        load_config_file: 'elements.yml'

See L<HTML::FormFu/load_config_file> for further details.

=head2 load_config_filestem

Arguments: $filestem

Arguments: \@filestems

Like L</load_config_file>, but you shouldn't include the file extension
in the passed string. This allows you to change your config-file type,
without having to change the code that loads the files.

=head2 config_file_path

Arguments: $directory_name

L</config_file_path> defines where configuration files will be
searched for, if an absolute path is not given to
L</load_config_file>.

Default Value: not defined

This method is a special 'inherited accessor', which means it can be set on 
the form, a block element or a single element. When the value is read, if 
no value is defined it automatically traverses the element's hierarchy of 
parents, through any block elements and up to the form, searching for a 
defined value.

=head2 config_callback

See L<HTML::FormFu/config_callback> for details.

=head2 populate

See L<HTML::FormFu/populate> for details.

=head2 stash

See L<HTML::FormFu/stash> for details.

=head2 type

Returns the C<type> argument originally used to create the element.

Return Value: $form

See L<HTML::FormFu/add_attributes> for details.

L</add_attrs> is an alias for L</add_attributes>.

=head2 add_attributes_xml

=head2 add_attrs_xml

See L<HTML::FormFu/add_attributes_xml> for details.

L</add_attrs_xml> is an alias for L</add_attributes_xml>.

=head2 del_attributes

=head2 del_attrs

Arguments: [%attributes]

Arguments: [\%attributes]

Return Value: $form

See L<HTML::FormFu/del_attributes> for details.

L</del_attrs> is an alias for L</del_attributes>.

=head2 del_attributes_xml

=head2 del_attrs_xml

See L<HTML::FormFu/del_attributes_xml> for details.

L</del_attrs_xml> is an alias for L</del_attributes_xml>.

The following methods are shortcuts for accessing L</attributes> keys.

=head2 id

Arguments: [$id]

Return Value: $id

Get or set the element's DOM id.

Default Value: none

=head1 MODEL / DATABASE INTERACTION

See L<HTML::FormFu::Model> for further details and available models.

=head1 RENDERING

=head2 filename

This value identifies which template file should be used by 
L</render> to render the element.

=head2 prepare_id

Arguments: $render

See L<HTML::FormFu::Element::_Field/prepare_id> for details.

=head2 prepare_attrs

Arguments: $render

See L<HTML::FormFu::Element::_Field/prepare_attrs> for details.

=head2 render

Return Value: $string

=head1 INTROSPECTION

=head2 parent

Returns the L<block element|HTML::FormFu::Element::Block> or
L<form|HTML::FormFu> object that this element is attached to.

=head2 get_parent

Arguments: \%options

    my $repeatable = $field->get_parent({ type => 'Repeatable' });

Traverses the parent hierarchy, returning the first parent that matches the
supplied options.

=head2 form
