New/create actions

[van-mronov]

Hi, we're trying to migrate from 1.1 to 2.0.

Previously, we used following pattern for rendering new item form and create this item by form submit:

class FoosController
  def new
    form Foo::Create
  end

  def create
    run Foo::Create do
      return redirect_to_index, notice: "Added foo item."
    end

    render :new
  end
end

Action new didn't process operation, just create contract.

So, here is my question. How I can use new operations with pipes in such way? Should I create operation for new action with only Model(Foo, :new) and Contract::Build steps and another operation for create action with full set of steps (validation, persisting, etc)?

Hi @van-mronov! The way you suggest your New and Create operations is correct. Please note that there will be a guide soon that explains this, TRB2 is not "officially" out yet, hence the lack of docs.

How are you liking it so far? 🍻

Hi, @apotonick! Thank you, waiting for docs)

I'm really excited about TRB2. It looks pretty simple and straightforward to use. I guess conception of steps and success/failure pipes are great features. This is how I think about business logic in my mind.

Can I help somehow/contribute? Let me know if you have any issue tracker.

Hey @van-mronov, we could need help with generators. They must be decoupled from Rails, using thor as a dependency, so we can reuse them for Hanami, etc.

Are you interested in helping? This would greatly improve TRB's accessability since people can quickly generate some concepts and play with TRB.
