Example:

from dougrain_forms import FormsMixin

class FormsDocument(Document, FormsMixin):
    pass

doc = FormsDocument.empty()
doc.add_link('self', '/foo')

doc.set_form(
    'attack',
    '/attacks',
    headers={
        'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    },
    method='POST',
    schema=ATTACK_SCHEMA

API

By mixing in FormMixin into your document, you get three new methods:

• set_form(self, rel, target, **kwargs)

• delete_form(self, rel)

• form(self, href, **kwargs)
