pdf each in each

[hupka36@gmail.com]

Hi, I want to do pdf template for case:



Case name:{{name}}<br>

Accounts:<br>

{{#each accounts}}
Account name:{{name}}<br>

{{#each contacts}} // of course in listed account
Contact name:{{name}}<br>
{{/each}}
<br>
{{/each}}


but i cant go deeper than 1 level.
is it normal that each in each not work or some mistake from me??

thank you

Hello,
{{#each}} iterator supports the link-multiple relationship. By default the Case entity has:
1. Many-to-One relationship with Account
2. Many-to-Many relationship with Contacts

So if you are using the default relationships then in your case for Contacts it will work, but will not for Account. For Account you need to utilize a simple Placeholder instead - {{accountName}}.

ok it is wrong example from me - sorry
i can make another better example

protocol (many to many) relation to case
case(many to many) relation to usedSpareParts

this mean that protocol have 1 or more linked cases
and every case have included count of usedSpareParts

i need print in protocol with all linked cases
and all usedSpareParts separated according to cases

this is why i ask each in each

-------------------------------------
protocol: 01
customer: john
cases:
- case no 1
- repair wheel
- usedSpareParts:
-- 1x wheel
-- 1x bearing
- case no 4
- repair mirror
- usedSpareParts:
-- 1x mirror

etc...
--------------------------------------

dash mean depth of each cycle

my problem is pdf {{#each ...}} use as recursing function

thank you

its maybe only problem formating of variable like>

Protocol:{{name}}<br>
Cases:<br>
{{#each cases}}
Case name:{{name}}<br>
Used spareparts:
{{#each usedSpareParts}}
{{name}}<br>
{{/each}}
<br>
{{/each}}

?!? more complex locks {{{{name}}}}
or some prefix before {{usedSpareParts.name}} ?!?
i thing it´s only some little mistake why not work recursion

Hello,

i think you or me don't understand..
you say pdf for case..

so you can only (!) have a case.. and case have only one parent ..

maybe you need to do pdf for account and then forEach case ?

i am trying make pdf template .
so printing all cases is not problem (it work good and i have the same solution for meetings)
but in cases i cant generate to pdf used parts (screenshots may help with understanding)
for the printing cases and meetings is used helper {{/each}}

but i need for spareparts use {{/each}} in {{/each}} - it not work

this is only generating pdf via template problem
structure of listing and inserting data is not problem

Ha ok,

you pdf (entity template =) Protocol !!! so you go 2 depth ..
not possible out-of-box (for me)... need custom code

if you pdf (entity template = Case) .. then you can each spareParts and too have protocoleName

[hupka36@gmail.com]

one of way is :
make custom helper with direct sql query and incuding iterations. With this helper generate "used spare part as html table" outside of pdf temlpate (directly in helper)
so this is not ideal complex solution, but it is only about transfering problem from one scripting language to another.

PS> (worst but working can be create in "case entity" columns: sparepart1, sparepart2 .... and forward data thru that columns, but sorry - noway for me)

thanks

Multi level would be good wouldn't it. Unfortunately it is probably will never be supported in default installation.
