Widget data input and output
A widget template The client controller components:
- Template specifies specifies the widget view and the way it displays with in HTML format. It also allows end-users to input and to interact with data.
- Client script runs a JS script on the client-side, so that it . It receives data from the server-side, processes data idata before rendering, then passes it to the widget template. Also, the client script passes the input data input received to the server-side.
In the widget template scripts, use data input fields for passing the data values to a widget for any purpose. The client script uses the data object to access data received form the server dataside. After processing data by the client script processed the data, invoke the the s_widget.serverUpdate() method to send the data to the server controller. When calling this method, the server script data object script data object automatically overwrites the client controller data objectcontroller data object.
Input and output fields
Widget elements can be defined as input fields and manage the input data in the way you wantInput fields are widget elements. You can manage the entered data according to your purposes.
The code below implements data input using the model widget tag attribute, then after the data gets updated on the client-side, this value passes to the <h1>
header.
Code Block | ||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||||||
<string model="data.input"> </string> <h1> {data.input} </h1> |
The <string>
field is a text field that allows a user to enter some text information. The <h1>
header dynamically displays this text with the {data.input}
object.
Multiple data output
The examples below describe how to place the values into two fields and output the joined value of them formatted with "h1 header" style in two different ways.
Example 1
Code Block | ||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||||||
<string model="data.lastname" event-change=";(( ) => { const lastname = s_widget.getFieldValue('lastname') || ''; const firstname = s_widget.getFieldValue('firstname') || ''; s_widget.setFieldValue('fullname', lastname + ' ' + firstname) } )();"> </string> <string model="data.firstname" event-change=";( () => { const lastname = s_widget.getFieldValue('lastname') || ''; const firstname = s_widget.getFieldValue('firstname') || ''; s_widget.setFieldValue('fullname', lastname + ' ' + firstname) })();"> </string> <h1>{data.fullname}</h1> |
Example 2
Code Block | ||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||||||
;(() => { window.s_widget_custom = window.s_widget_custom || {}; window.s_widget_custom.updateFullname = function() { const lastname = s_widget.getFieldValue('lastname') || ''; const firstname = s_widget.getFieldValue('firstname') || ''; s_widget.setFieldValue ('fullname2', lastname + ' ' + firstname) } } )(); |
