Please help to improve

Hello to everyone!

I just start to use this nice crm. System is really good, but I want to improve some mechanisms.
For example we have a standard document section, that has opportunity to download the document from crm.

But i want have a possibility to read pdf without downloading - just from the system page.

to do this i need to add php code something like this:

function pdf_viewer($attr, $url) { return '<iframe src="http://docs.google.com/viewer?url=' . $url . '&embedded=true" style="width: 600px; height: 500px;" frameborder="0">no frame eror</iframe>'; } add_shortcode('pdfview', 'pdf_viewer');
and write a shortcode with link like this:

[pdfview]http://mywww.url/link/to/uploads/documents/document.pdf[/pdfview] Could you help me explain, how can i do this? Thanks!

Hi

You can create custom field in entityDefs with custom view class

Document's entityDefs

{
   "fields": {
      "fields": {
         "pdf": {
             "type": "base",
              "view": "Custom:Document.Fields.Pdf"  
         }
     }
   }
} 

create client/custom/src/views/document/fields/pdf.js

Espo.define('custom:views/document/fields/pdf', 'views/fields/base', function (Dep) {

 return Dep.extend({

    detailTemplate: 'custom:document/fields/pdf/detail',
  
    readOnly: true,

    getValueForDisplay: function () {
       return "your IFRAME IS HERE";
    }

  });    
    
}); 

create client/custom/res/templates/document/fields/pdf/detail.tpl

with only single line:
{{{value}}}

thank you it works, Yuriy - you are the best!
one more little question: i have 1 attached pdf file to any contact in crm, for viewing this file I need a get link to it.
How can i write dynamic link in my getValueForDisplay: function () like this

getValueForDisplay: function () {
return "[pdfview]http://mywww.url/link/to/uploads/documents/document.pdf[/pdfview]";
}

like

getValueForDisplay: function () {
return "[pdfview]dynamic-link-to-pdf-file-of-this-contact[/pdfview]";
}

Thank you!

You can display anything you like.

var html = 'something';
html += 'something';
html += this.model.get('someField');
html = '<a href="hello">' + html + '</a>';
return html;
