So on the people detail you would want to show a list view of all pets (related to that person)?

OK will see what I can whip up, having a nested listview is certainly possible

Making some progress on the listview field, just need to make sure it can filter now

Marking the property will look something like this (so you need to define the type and also the foreign key colum that will be used to filter on).

    [Ignore]
    [UIOMaticField("Dogs", "Manage your pets", View ="list",
        Config = "{'typeName': 'Example.Models.Dog, Example', 'foreignKeyColumn' : 'OwnerId'}")]
    public IEnumerable<Dog> Dogs { get; set; } 

Does this make sense? Still seeing if I can remove the typeName from the config since the property contains the type...

Ok just publised the new version to nuget that includes this list view

https://www.nuget.org/packages/Nibble.Umbraco.UIOMatic/

Let me know if you have further questions about this feature, have a good weekend!

So it crashes when you create a new object?

And if you mark it with the UIOMaticIgnoreFromListView attribute?

Then it shouldn't show up in the listview

Ok found the fix, just testing now and then I'll build a new version

Ok new version (1.4.1) is up https://www.nuget.org/packages/Nibble.Umbraco.UIOMatic/ that fixes the crash

Great :)

Yes Tim!! This is what I was asking for!! #h5yr

@Matthieu great :) hope it's even more useful now

@Jonas nope that isn't possible, so you want to be able to place a list view in read only mode (no create and no edit), can add that of course :)

Haha well I guess santa is here early for you ;) will add the option! Love these ideas btw makes it even better!

Awesome. I think it'd be great if we had different properties to allow or deny Create, Update, and Delete operations for each UIOMatic attribute, rather than just setting ReadOnly.

Our use case is that we only want our users to modify a few attributes of existing data, so what I've done as a bodge is added a line in list.controller.js:

        $scope.readOnly = response.data.ReadOnly;
        //if this is of a specific type, let's set our new property
        $scope.updateOnly = $scope.typeName.indexOf('UIOMaticAttributeName, ExampleProject') != -1;

and modified the list.html by adding to ng-hide attributes:

<div class="btn-group" ng-hide="readOnly || updateOnly">

This way I can hide the Create or Delete buttons. It doesn't stop the user from right-clicking in the left pane and clicking "Create" though.

Also, is there any way to change the text rendered for the application in the backend? It's a little confusing for users to see "UI-O-Matic" and I couldn't figure out how to change it beyond changing the wand icon.

Hi.

Running 1.6.0 I'm having trouble using the filter on the Person view for in your mentioned case (dogs, persons) when using the property for Dogs on the Person model as discussed here. The property is set like:

        [Ignore]
        [UIOMaticIgnoreFromListView]
        [UIOMaticField("Dogs", "Example", View = "list",
            Config = "{'typeName': 'Example.Models.Dog, Example', 'foreignKeyColumn' : 'OwnerId', 'canEdit' : false}")]
        public IEnumerable<Dog> Dogs { get; set; }

When trying to use the filter I'm getting a 500 internal server error, SQLException Invalid column name "Dogs". The list of persons is working and clicking one will show the person page with the list of dogs correct. Filtering on the dogs page works as well.

Can't seem to get a hang of what is wrong though? I saw you guys discussed inner joins in another thread "Foreign Keys with label view". Do I need to construct the BuildingQuery in that manner perhaps? Currently it's configured like:

void PetaPocoObjectController_BuildingQuery(object sender, UIOMatic.QueryEventArgs e)
        {
            if(e.TableName == "Person")
            {               
                e.Query.Where("SiteRootId = @0", UmbracoContext.Current.Security.CurrentUser.StartContentId);
            }
        }

Hmmm adding the ignore attribute should do the trick, what namespace is it coming form?

Nope you shouldn't add it to ownerid, but it seems like it isn't doing the trick on the dogs property (the ignore attribute) so maybe it's the wrong attribute (coming from a different namespace)

I've tried removing the ignore attribute on the Dogs property for Person model without any success. The dog model has the following for ownerId:

[UIOMaticIgnoreFromListView]
        public int OwnerId { get; set; } 

When entering list view for persons and start typing something in the search input for filtering I keep getting: Get 500 Internal Server Error with exception message: Invalid column name 'Dogs'.

I've also noticed that whenever I click somewhere on the page I get an error in the browser console saying: Uncaught Error: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: #/uiomatic/uioMaticTree/edit/Example.Models.Person, Example, Version=1.0.1202.1258, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null which also shows up whenever I click on the page when on list view for Dogs.

No idea/solution to why the filtering isn't working in the list view for persons and why clicking on a list view page (persons or dogs) keeps giving uncaught errors in the browser console?

Sorry didn't have time to look yet will try to see why it's happening this week

Hello,

the listview feature in the umbraco backend is awesome!

But how do i display the listview in a template, so i can see it in the frontend website? I should be able to access the property by its alias "layout" and then get the columns for example. How do i get the columns?

var layout = CurrentPage.Content.GetProperty("layout");
var columns = layout.Columns;

is working on a reply...
