full view with relationships details

[cbovio]

I would like to have a full detailed view on a table with relationships.

By default on 0.7, we have details on main table and html links to related tables.

How can i have same thing but with all visible fields of related tables ?

Thanks.

HI,

Sorry for the lagging documentation on this.Ê ... there is currently no documentation on this yet..

You can define "sections" to be displayed in the view tab by defining methods of the form section__%sectionname%(&$record){..} in which you can place any content you want.

These methods must return an associative array that can have the following keys:

class : To decide where the section is shown.Ê 'left' for left column, 'main' for main column.

content: The content to be displayed in the section.

label: The label to be displayed at the top of the section.

edit_url: If there is a url where this section's content can be edited it can be placed here.

Here is an example section implementation:

function section__profile_page_1(&$record){
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ $query = array('company_id'=>$record->val('company_id'),'owner_type'=>'COMPANY', 'active'=>1,'-limit'=>1,'-skip'=>0);
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ $pages = df_get_records_array('profile_pages',$query);
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ //echo "Num Profile Pages: ".count($pages);
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ //$page = df_get_record('profile_pages', $query);
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ if ( count($pages) > 0 ){
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ $content =Ê $pages[0]->val('approved_content');
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ if ( !$content ) return null;
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ return array(
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ 'class'=>'main',
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ 'content'=> $content,
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ 'label'=> $pages[0]->strval('title'),
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ 'edit_url'=>( $pages[0]->checkPermission('edit') ? $pages[0]->getURL('-action=edit') : null)
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ );
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ } else {
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ return null;
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ }
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ
ÊÊÊ }

Now if you wanted to display all related fields you might have something like:

function section__profile_page_1(&$record){
ÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ $related_records =& $record->getRelatedRecordObjects('my_relationship');
ÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ // Let's assume there is only one related record.
ÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ if ( count($related_records) == 0 ) return null;
ÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ $content = '

etc...

Value 1	'.$related_records[0]->strval('Val1').'

';
ÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ

ÊÊÊ Ê
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ return array(
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ 'class'=>'main',
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ 'content'=> $content,
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ 'label'=> $pages[0]->strval('title')
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ );
ÊÊÊ ÊÊ
ÊÊÊ ÊÊÊ
ÊÊÊ }

Hope this helps a little.

OK, i understand now how using sections.

- new sections come before main details. How fix the sections order ?
- How can i automaticaly display fields of those sections : labels, values because i personnalized labels in fields.ini and i used __display functions to personnalize values (dates, moneys, etc...).

Thanks.

- new sections come before main details. How fix the sections order ?

Add an order attribute to the array that is returned from your section function:
e.g:
function section__profile_page_1(&$record){
$related_records =& $record->getRelatedRecordObjects('my_relationship');
// Let's assume there is only one related record.
if ( count($related_records) == 0 ) return null;
$content = ' etc...

Value 1	'.$related_records[0]->strval('Val1').'

';



return array(
'class'=>'main',
'content'=> $content,
'label'=> $pages[0]->strval('title'),
'order'=>10

);


}

- How can i automaticaly display fields of those sections : labels, values because i personnalized labels in fields.ini and i used __display

Labels: Obtain a reference to the table object that contains the field.
e.g.
$table =& Dataface_Table::loadTable('my_table');

Then obtain a reference to the Field config array for the field you want:
$field =& $table->getField();

The label will be stored in :
$field['widget']['label']

Note you could also attain this same information from the related record object as follows:
First obtain a Dataface record for the table with the column in question:
$record =& $related_record->toRecord('my_field');
Then obtain a reference to the table.
$table =& $record->_table;
...
This is probably better because it is more generic, - i.e. we don't need to know the name of the table this way.

Display fields:
Instead of using the strval method, use the display() method
e.g.
$related_record->display('my_field');

or you could use the htmlValue() method:
$related_record->htmlValue('my_field');

So could you post a complete function to make a related table section appear in the detail view.
For example like in this picture, the overnight address, and details, are from two different tables (i presume) and the layout is the same. Also how did you get the edit button on the sections? Also I see mutual funds (growth funds) bit is a hyperlink?


Is there a tutorial on this somewhere that I am missing???

Im sorry I post so many questions, but I really love XF and dont want to change systems!

Thanks in advance.

Here is the full delegate class for the table in that example. Notice the use of the edit_url attribute in the section__xxx() methods to give the edit link.

Thankyou shannah, a few examples of functions in there look promising!

Just quickly, off the top of your head, is it possible to create a custom grid layout for the details page, and place whichever fields wherever we want?

I have actually managed to create a right sidebar, which is a mirror of the left one, and it works very well! But I would like to mix and match my field display. The hardest one probably is to move two of my fields to the top right (so inbetween middle and right bars). Also I would like the clients photo (a BLOB field) in a different spot and if i can, even have it as a small icon somewhere near the breadcrum.....just to make life harder.
so to clarify those two fields, they are from the main table, not from a related table.

Is this at all possible? What is the code to display a single label and field from the main table.

also widget:atts:style = "font-size: 24pt;"changes the field in the form upon creating/editing

how about changing the style of certain fields in display view?
