Nuxeo Data Table View and Filtering

Sudarshan_Ghate

I have a folderish object called EmployeeData. This contains multiple Employees which is basically a DocumentType. Employees have properties such as EmployeeID, First Name, Last Name etc. When I view the EmployeeData, I can see all the Employees. For the EmployeeData content view, I want to be able to filter the data based on first name, last name etc.

None of the values I have typed in seem to work. Can someone assist with the filter-by clause and what additional things I should be doing?

Here is the code fragment.

<nuxeo-data-table-column name="First Name" id="FirstName" field="employee:FirstName" sort-by="employee:FirstName" filter-by="employee:FirstName">

[[item.properties.employee:FirstName]]

</template>

</nuxeo-data-table-column>

Thank you ,

"filter-by" needs to contain the id of the predicate or aggregate that you're using for the filtering (as defined in your page provider).

EDIT: There's an example in the source, can't find one in the doc unfortunately:

In the Studio Designer, it seems to be using [[nxProvider]] but clearly this must be a build in PP because I cannot find the definition for it. When I trace the traffic it seems to be calling the "advanced_document_content" . Is there a way to customize it using the following in the XML Extensions of Nuxeo Studio?

<component name="org.nuxeo.ecm.document.pageproviders.override">
<require>org.nuxeo.ecm.document.pageproviders</require>

<extension target="org.nuxeo.ecm.platform.query.api.PageProviderService" point="providers">
<coreQueryPageProvider name="advanced_document_content">
<trackUsage>true</trackUsage>
<property name="maxResults">DEFAULT_NAVIGATION_RESULTS</property>
<whereClause docType="AdvancedContent">
<fixedPart>
ecm:isVersion = 0 AND ecm:mixinType != 'HiddenInNavigation'
</fixedPart>
<predicate operator="FULLTEXT" parameter="dc:title">
<field name="title" schema="advanced_content"/>
</predicate>
<predicate operator="=" parameter="ecm:parentId">
<field name="ecm_parentId" schema="advanced_content"/>
</predicate>
<predicate operator="=" parameter="ecm:isTrashed">
<field name="ecm_trashed" schema="advanced_content"/>
</predicate>
<predicate operator="STARTSWITH" parameter="employee:FirstName">
<field name="FirstName" schema="advanced_content"/>
</predicate>

Thank you

Yes "advanced_document_content" is an OOTB page provider. Yes you can override any OOTB page provider, whether via XML contrib or just creating a PP in Studio with the same ID (which is effectively the same thing, in the end it's an XML contrib). I'd recommend making a PP of your own though, it will have fewer side effects. The "advanced_document_content" PP is used throughout WebUI so you need to be careful when modifying it.

In general whenever I create a custom Folderish document type I will also create a matching page provider, as inevitably I will need to customize the viewing of its contents.

Thank you. So if the Folderish object is "Invoices", I should create a PP for it and use the PP in the View layout?

The PP should specify the predicates and aggregates from contained objects?

Thanks,
