Updates and changes in application

[yuri]

In 7.1 version it's not possible to change the ID of the entity from the formula.

Possible workarounds:

• Before-Save hook
• Custom formula function

View: wait method now accepts promises

wait method holds rendering of the view until conditions met.

    setup: function () {
            this.wait(
                this.model.fetch()
            );
    },

    setup: function () {
            this.wait(
                this.getModelFactory().create('Case')
                .then(function (model) {
                    model.id = this.model.id
                    return model.fetch();
                }.bind(this))
                .then(function (model) {
                    console.log(model);
                })
            );
    },

    setup: function () {
            this.wait(
                Promise.all([
                    this.model.fetch(),
                    this.model.collection.fetch()
                ])
            );
    },

5.6.9 version

ORM: Parameter returnSthCollection

Can be used with find and findRelated methods. With this param provided, they will return a collection that doesn't allocate memory for all result data.

https://github.com/espocrm/documentation/blob/master/docs/development/orm.md#returnsthcollection

$collection = $entityManager->getRepository('Email')->limit(0, 10000)->find(['returnSthCollection' => true]);
foreach ($collection as $entity) {
    // memory is allocated for each item, when collection is iterated
}

5.5.0 version


User type field

We add Type field that will be used Instead of current multiple fields 'isAdmin', 'isPortalUser' etc. Old fields will be also supported for a while. User types: 'regular', 'admin', 'portal', 'super-admin', 'system', 'api'.


Sorting parameters

We introduce 'orderBy' and 'order' for sorting lists. These parameters can be passed as get paramers in API requesrs, used in frontend collections and defined in entityDefs for default sorting. Previous parameres 'sortBy' and 'asc' will be supported for a while.

Example:

orderBy: 'createdAt',
order: 'desc'.
