how to create a loop of parameters?
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to get equanda/accordion to work with a variable set of tabs
and contents. The intent is that I want to loop across a list of
groups of objects, with each group a tab and each entry in the tab is a
Link to a page about the object. Something like this:
Group A
obj 1
obj 2
obj 3
Group B
obj 1
obj 4
For various reasons an accordion will work well for this.
This doesn't work but describes what I'd like to do:
<div type="equanda/accordion">
<t:loop source="groups" value="group">
<t:parameter id="${panel.title_id}">${panel.title}</t:parameter>
<t:parameter id="${panel.content_id}">${panel.content}</t:parameter>
</t:loop>
</div>
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Chuck Kring

I'm going to give it a try. It looks very usable.
Thanks for the lead.

Separate issues.
For this I'm using the SImple Stupid JQuery Accordion and it's working
well.
The issue that I've run into in the past is that there are cases where
generating Blocks in the page based upon page data and accessing them
(e.g. to pass into a zone) would be useful.
I understand the issues with generating Blocks and using them in
components in the same page.

First, in order to create the dynamic blocks that you want to access
with findBlock, you would actually have to render the body of the
component. When would you get a chance to call findBlock? your outer
component calls setuprender, beginrender, beforerendertemplate,
beforerenderbody before the body is actually rendered.
It seems like what you are running into is that your use case is
outside the scope of the component you are trying to use. Accordion
was built to have a static number of panes.
You could build a new component that supports dynamic panes.

Clarification: programatically created with ids specified from the
page or component class, then retrieved using findBlock() or something
similar.

Understood.
The use model for this would be to allow Blocks to be dynamically
created in the template then retrieved using
ComponentResources.findtBlock(). I think findBlock() works off of the
Tapestry id which can't be set.

I don't see that as doable; that implies that the structure of the
page itself is variable. A component's id, just like its type and
parameter bindings, is part of the static structure that is essential
to Tapestry's ability to share a single page instance across multiple
threads, or share requests across multiple servers in a cluster.
Typically, you will use an Environmental object to coordinate an outer
component (that pushes an object into the Environment) with an inner
component (that pulls the environmental out of the Environment).

Re: how to create a loop of parameters?
Posted by Chuck Kring <cj...@pacbell.net>.
Whoa. Everything is easy in Tapestry. The hard part is figuring out
the easy way to do it.
Howard, if you happen to read this, one thing that would be generally
useful would be to allow t:id to be set using a variable. Something
like this:
<t:loop source="items" value="item">
<t:something t:id="${item.identifier}"/>
</t:loop>
Right now you can set the HTML id but not the tapestry id this way.
There have been a number of cases where I wanted to do this. It might
have been useful here.
Thanks for building a great framework.
Chuck

Re: how to create a loop of parameters?

There isn't a good way to do this.
You could inject the "parameters" as Blocks into your code, then pass
a List or Map of those Blocks to your component.
It isn't as pretty in the markup.
Alternately, you could have a naming convention, i.e.
<t:parameter name="fooTitle"> ... </t:parameter>
<t:parameter name="fooContent"> ... </t:parameter>
<t:parameter name="barTitle"> ... </t:parameter>
<t:parameter name="barContent"> ... </t:parameter>
