class Add(form.Form):

    form.context(IClan)

    label = u"New person"
    fields = form.Fields(IPerson)
    actions =  form.Actions(
         form.AddAction("Add", factory=Person),
         form.CancelAction("Cancel"))
    actions['add'].fieldName = 'last_name'

    fields = form.Fields(IPerson)

Actions

AddAction

Action which take an extra parameter, factory, to create an object stored on the content object. The created object is added with the help of INameChooser to get its identifier.

Afterwards the created object is edited (like EditAction does) with the form data.

EditAction

CancelAction

Simple action which return on default view of the content without validating the form submission.
