I'm trying to keep old input in volt when the user submits wrong data (something like {{ old('variable') }} in laravel)
I've been going through some related posts without success ( https://forum.phalcon.io/discussion/1918/keep-old-inputs, https://forum.phalcon.io/discussion/1865/how-to-create-a-delete-confirmation-in-other-page).
I am using phalcon 3, without forms.
I've tried the following:
app/config/services.php
<?php
use Phalcon\Mvc\View;
use Phalcon\Mvc\View\Engine\Php as PhpEngine;
use Phalcon\Mvc\Url as UrlResolver;
use Phalcon\Mvc\View\Engine\Volt as VoltEngine;
use Phalcon\Mvc\Model\Metadata\Memory as MetaDataAdapter;
use Phalcon\Session\Adapter\Files as SessionAdapter;
use Phalcon\Flash\Session as Flash;
use Phalcon\Mvc\Dispatcher;
use Phalcon\Mvc\Model\Manager as ModelsManager;
/**
* Setting up the view component
*/
$di->setShared('view', function () {
$config = $this->getConfig();
$view = new View();
$view->setDI($this);
$view->setViewsDir($config->application->viewsDir);
$view->registerEngines([
'.volt' => function ($view) {
$config = $this->getConfig();
$volt = new VoltEngine($view, $this);
$volt->setOptions([
'compiledPath' => $config->application->cacheDir,
'compiledSeparator' => '_',
'compiledExtension' => '.compiled',
]);
return $volt;
}
]);
return $view;
});
/**
* Start the session the first time some component request the session service
*/
$di->setShared('session', function () {
$session = new SessionAdapter();
session_name('econtrol');
$session->start();
return $session;
});
/**
* Register the session flash service with the Twitter Bootstrap classes
*/
$di->set('flash', function () {
$flash = new Flash();
$flash->setAutomaticHtml(false);
return $flash;
});
// Registering a dispatcher
$di->set('dispatcher', function () {
$dispatcher = new Dispatcher();
$dispatcher->setDefaultNamespace('App\Controllers');
return $dispatcher;
});
app/controllers/InformacionController
<?php

// to implement soon...
} else {

$informacion->domicilio = $this->request->getPost('domicilio');
$informacion->actualizacion = date("Y-m-d H:i:s"); // update column
if ($informacion->update() == false) {
// getting errors
$old = [];
foreach($this->request->getPost() as $key=>$msg){
$old[$key] = $msg;
}
$this->session->set('errors', $old);
//die(var_dump($_SESSION['_flashMessages']));
//die(var_dump($_SESSION['domicilio']));
foreach ($informacion->getMessages() as $message) {
$this->flash->error($message->getMessage());
}
return $this->response->redirect('informacion/editar');
} else {
$this->flash->success('Información guardada');

$router->addPost('/informacion/actualizar', array(
'controller' => 'informacion',
'action' => 'update'
)); But is very ugly, doesn´t clean inputs on reload and a has bunch of code in the view.
I tried to send the data through return $this->response->redirect('informacion/editar'); in controller but response->redirect cannot send data and {% session.destroy('domicilio') %} nor {% session.remove('domicilio') %}cannot be called from volt.
Or if you can enlighten me with an explicit example, it would be much better because I am a beginner. Thank you.
