front-end CRUD

[pankaspe]

Hello everyone, I need to rewrite entire application and I want to choose PW for speed reason and logic. I love the roles/permissions system and relationships in db, but now the question..

My app is based on users roles, foreach user role I need to write a big form (around 30fields)->store in database->edit and show the form. Simple crud system in frontend.
I can not find a guide to do this, I would use as much as possible the PW's API can you give me some advice?

edit: this module works fine! http://modules.processwire.com/modules/form-template-processor/
@ryan with the upload fields the page say "The page must be saved"
my code in my template is:
 

$form = $modules->get('FormTemplateProcessor');
$form->template = $templates->get('my_template'); 
$form->requiredFields = array('field1', 'field2', 'field3'); 
$form->parent = $page; 

echo $form->render(); 

Thank you all guys!

Hi,

I do not think Ryan will have time to support the module (and this is not the right topic for that anyway), however you can take a look at the code to learn form it. I can also recommend the following as staring points to implement forms based on the PW form API:

Also. these gists by @Soma are good demonstrations:
