Extension: controller not found

[manuel7b]

Hi,

first of all thanks for EspoCRM.

I am writing an extension which will let me interact with Nextcloud API. You can find attached the relevant code.

The extension correctly appears in the menu, but when I click on the menu item I get a 404 error, saying: "Nextcloud controller not found".

Could you help me figure out what I am doing wrong?


Thank you.

After more debugging with the help of some logs, I found a typo. In Nextcloud.php, under Controllers, this line:

namespace Espo\Module\Nextcloud\Controllers; 

must be:

namespace Espo\Modules\Nextcloud\Controllers;

Hello
check backend controller namespace (Module{s})

Thank you, tanya.

I have another question, don't know if I can ask here or you need me to open a different topic.

I can now call my external API correctly and get a JSON back in the response. How can I display the result in my template? If you check the attached source code, I have an index.tpl file. I want to print the JSON in that file. Is it possible?

[tanya]

create other view for results and render results view after response

client/src/views/list.js -> createListRecordView function (loadList) -> to view client/src/views/record/list.js

Sorry, but I don't understand. Could you share more details? I mean:

- do I have to add another file under espocrm-nextcloud/files/client/modules/nextcloud/src/views?
- do I have to extend client/src/views/list.js somehow?
- it seems to me client/src/views/record/list.js operates on clientDefs. How can it operate on data coming from an external JSON?

Thank you.

- it's desirable
- no
- pass it in 'data'

[manuel7b]

- pass it in 'data'

Do you mean something like this:

Espo.define('nextcloud:controllers/nextcloud', 'controller', function (Dep) {
    return Dep.extend({
        carter: function () {
            var result;
            $.ajax({
                url: 'Nextcloud/action/tweets',
                type: 'GET',
                dataType: 'json',
                async: false,
                success: function (data) {
                    result = data;
                }
            });
            return result;
        },

        getSettingsModel: function () {
            var model = this.getConfig().clone();
            model.defs = this.getConfig().defs;

            return model;
        },

        index: function (options) {
            var result = this.carter();

            var model = this.getSettingsModel();
            this.main('nextcloud:views/nextcloud/index', {
                model: model,
                data: result
            });
        }
    });
}); 

This seems to be working, I can see the contents of "data" if I logged it on the JS console.

Espo.define('nextcloud:views/nextcloud/index', 'view', function (Dep) {
    return Dep.extend({

        template: 'nextcloud:nextcloud/index',

        init: function () {
            console.log('result: ' + JSON.stringify(this.data, null, 2));
        }

    })
}); 

I still don't understand how to have it displayed in index.tpl, though.

I managed to print the content of data using:

<div>
    {{#each ./this}}
    <h2>{{text}}</h2>
    {{/each}}
</div>

Thanks for the support.

[manuel7b]

Sorry if I keep asking question, I am still learning.

What if now I want to show the results in a list like, say, the one already existing for Opportunities?
