Filter list view by current record

[Maarten]

Thanks for all the help. That did it.

For future reference, please find the javascript handler below:

define('custom:handlers/select-related/same-project', [], () => {
return class {
    /**
     * @param {module:model} model
     * @return {Promise<module:handlers/select-related~filters>}
     */
    getFilters(model) {
        let advanced = {};

        let projectId = null;
        let projectName = null;

        if (model.get('id')) {
            projectId = model.get('id');
            projectName = model.get('name');
        }

        if (projectId) {
            advanced.project = {
                attribute: 'projectId',
                type: 'equals',
                value: projectId,
                data: {
                    type: 'is',
                    nameValue: projectName,
                },
            };
        }

        return Promise.resolve({
            advanced: advanced,
        });
    }

}

If you put your customizations to the "custom", then use "custom" as the module name. Note that your handler should be in AMD, not ES6.

define('custom:handlers/select-related/same-project', [], () => {
rerurn class {

}
});

[yuri]

You missed the module name.

"selectHandler": "your-module-name:handlers/select-related/same-project"

Thanks yuri

I am having a lot of trouble to get the basics of this working:

This is in the clientDefs of Project.js

 "relationshipPanels": {
        "trainings": {
            "layout": null
        },
        "projectBudget": {
            "layout": null,
            "createAttributeMap": {
                "projectId": "projectId",
                "projectName": "projectName"
            },
            "selectHandler": "handlers/select-related/same-project"
        }
    },
​

I have the same-project.js file in two locations:
/var/www/html/client/custom/src/handlers/select-related/same-project.js
/var/www/html/client/src/handlers/select-related/same-project.js

I am getting this error

loader.js:900:
GET https://XX/client/lib/transpiled/src/handlers/select-related/same-project.js?r=1697268291 404 (Not Found)

The files are readable by the server user: www-data

We are on Espo 8.0.3

I tried rebuilding en clear cache. As well as opening it in a new incognito browser.


Hope anyone can help, so I can actually start debugging.

The question is why you need it. The log is in the back-end. The handler is in the front-end (browser). Usually you need just console.log and check your browser console.

Another question: the same-account example is to filter a select handler through a third entity (account).

In my case, I don't have a third entity. I want to filter the selectHandler of projectDocument entity by the projectId from the project record.

Relationships:


How would the selectHandler have to be created to do this?

[Maarten]

Is there a way to print to $log from the selectRelatedHandler?

[rabii]

should be this client/custom/src/handlers/select-related/same-project.js

[Maarten]

yuri thanks. Should such a file be created in this directory?

client/custom/modules/advanced/src/handlers/select-related/same-project.js

metadata > clientDefs > Project > relationshipPanels > budget > selectHandler

I guess he wants to filter the document modal, when choosing a linked document to the main entity. It is only necessary to apply filters to the list. But one has still to activate the filter, when the modal opens.
There is a workaround to choose the filter automatically depending on the linked field, but I did not succeed in configure that function.
I think, something like this: https://forum.espocrm.com/forum/gene...active-entries

what do you mean by this ?

> I have an entity Project. It has multiple links to an entity Project Document, one for Budget, for Proposal, for Report, etc.

Why would you create multiple links between two entities, you could use a status field on project document and then apply filters when selecting.

I am not sure i understand how you set this up, if you share some screenshot we might be able to help

Hi,

I have an entity Project. It has multiple links to an entity Project Document, one for Budget, for Proposal, for Report, etc.
For each Project Document, the Project that it belongs to is set.

Now in the Project, I want to be able to select e.g. the budget. I click the select Project document. It opens the (small) list view to select from a list of Project Documents.

It shows me all project documents from all projects.
I want it to show all project documents from only the project record that I am working in.

I have tried:
- A report filter with a runtime filter (doesn't work)
- children - parent relationship (doesn't work)

This seems like a very common use case. But I can't find a reference to how to set this up.
Does this require coding, or is it possible in the UI?

If it requires coding, is there a good documentation for it?
