[CForms] Creating unique ids for new repeater rows
I'm a bit stuck here in trying to figure out how to assign a unique id
to new repeater rows. I tried referencing an external pipeline:
<fb:on-insert-row>
<fb:insert-node src="cocoon:/default-record"/>
</fb:on-insert-row>
where the "default-record" pipeline would create a record and assign a
unique id attribute, however, it seems that the pipeline is being
called only once, so all my records end up getting the same id.
It feels like there should be an obvious simple way of doing it and I'm
just completely missing it!
Thanks,
-Alex

I plugged it into 2.1.6 and it worked. Thanks for your help, Ben.

RE: [CForms] Creating unique ids for new repeater rows
Posted by Ben Pope <be...@REMOVE_MEhotmail.com>.
I guess I should also mention that it's probably prudent to set the @id
direction to load only:
<fb:repeater id="contacts"
parent-path="contacts"
row-path="contact">
<fb:identity>
<fb:value id="id" path="@id" direction="load">
..
Otherwise the element is bound in the save direction twice, I don't know
what the implications are.

Err... Yeah.
I'm using the 2.2 trunk.
I had noticed that this was "new" but I didn't know how new. Should have
checked, but since I decided to use 2.2-dev, I pretty much got rid of 2.1.6.
Should have some form of 2.1.x installed really :-p
As long as you "get the idea" from that snippet, I guess all is well.

Thanks Ben, this is exactly what I was looking for. Actually I
form2_bind_xml.xml is the file I've been looking at and it's not in my
version of it (2.1.6 release), are you using the HEAD version?
Thanks again,

RE: [CForms] Creating unique ids for new repeater rows

If you check out the form examples, you'll see:
<fb:on-bind>
<!-- executed on updates AND right after the insert -->
<fb:javascript id="id" path="@id" direction="save">
<fb:save-form>
var appValue = jxpathPointer.getValue();
if (appValue == '') {
var precSiblId =
jxpathContext.getValue("../preceding-sibling::contact/@id");
var newId = Number(precSiblId) + 1
jxpathPointer.setValue(newId.toFixed(0));
}
</fb:save-form>
</fb:javascript>
Which is inside:
form2_bind_xml.xml
Which is (probably) run from:
http://localhost:82/samples/blocks/forms/form2xml.flow
(I'm sure you'll figure out the URL differences)
Which seems to work ok for me.
