How to capture data (extension)?

[jhosellrod]

Hello guys, i'm new so i'm doing an extension and i want to capture data from options(like change() method from jquery) and parse it through client's controller, so i want to know the proper way to do this:

client>modules>location>src>views>location>index.j s

Espo.define('location:views/location/index', 'view', function (Dep) {
return Dep.extend({
template: 'location:location/index',
setup: function() {
Dep.prototype.setup.call(this);
this.listenTo(this.model, 'change', function() {
this.captureData();
this.reRender();
});
},
captureData: function() {
console.log("captureData");
}
})
}); 

client>modules>location>src>controllers>location>l ocation.js

Espo.define('location:controllers/location', 'controller', function (Dep) {
return Dep.extend({     
getSettingsModel: function () {
var model = this.getConfig().clone();
model.defs = this.getConfig().defs;
return model;
},
index: function (options) {
var model = this.getSettingsModel();
this.main('location:views/location/index', {
model: model
});
}
});
}); 

this is de data i want to capture:
application>espo>modules>location>resources>client Defs>location.json

{
"fields": {
"map_canvas": {
"type": "varchar"
},
"country": {
"options": ["all", "country1", "country2"]
},
"type": {
"options": ["all", "type1", "type2"]
}
}
} 

application>espo>modules>location>resources>layout s>detail.json

[
{
"label":"Filter",
"rows": [
[
{"name":"country","fullWidth": false},
{"name":"type","fullWidth": false}
]
]
},
{
"label":"Details",
"rows": [
[{"name":"data","fullWidth": true}]
]
}
] 

how do i create my template in client>modules>location>res>templates>location>ind ex.tpl ?

Hello
you can write any text in client>modules>location>res>templates>location>ind ex.tpl and check if everything is ok... open browser console and network tab
layout s>detail.json this layout is not loaded

this.listenTo(this.model, 'change', function() {
this.captureData();
this.reRender();
}, this); //without 'this' captureData and reRender be unreachable


If you need default entity, the easiest way is to create needed entity with Entity Manager on other instance and move file to and your module with some modification

Find the closest entity you need in basic version and use it as example
