Dynamic related fields

[talles.amadeu]

So i in the opportunities entity I related a Products entity, from which I created a few related fields, like product weight and price.

Is there a way to make these related fields appear as I select the product record? Because right now they only appear when I hit the save button.

I have websocket enabled and working.

Hello, in the path, select the file Opportunités.json

custom/Espo/Custom/Resources/metadata/entityDefs

        "products ": {
            "type": "link",
            "view": "custom:views/fields/profil",
            "isCustom": true
        },

        "opportunités": {
            "readOnly": true,
            "type": "foreign",
            "link": "products",
            "field": "name",
            "view": "views/fields/foreign-varchar",
            "isCustom": true
        },​​

and add this file to the path.

define('custom:views/fields/profil', ['views/fields/link', 'helpers/record-modal'], function (Dep) {

    return Dep.extend(/** @lends module:views/fields/link.Class# */{
  _foreignLinksAttributeHashMap: [],

    
    setup: function () {
            console.log("custom:views/digital-imaging-qa-qc-record/fields/digital-imaging-qa-qc-protocol this.model = ", this.model);



            Dep.prototype.setup.call(this);

            //setup foreign link hash map
            this._setupForeignLinkHashMap();

            // reRender the foreign field views anytime the link change event fires
            this.listenTo(this, 'change', () => {
                this._foreignLinksAttributeHashMap.forEach(function (obj, index, array) {
                    let fieldView = this.getParentView().getFieldView(obj.entityFieldName);
                    if (fieldView.isRendered()) {
                        fieldView.reRender();
                    }
                }, this);
            });
        },

        /**

this._foreignLinksAttributeHashMap.forEach(function(obj,index,array) {

let fieldView = this.getParentView().getFieldView(obj.entityFieldName);
fieldView.model.set(fieldView.name,model.get(obj.linkFieldName),{silent:true});

},this);

Dep.prototype.select.call(this,model);
},

        /**
         * Clear.
         */
      clearLink: function () {

        _setupForeignLinkHashMap: function () {
            let thisObj = this;
            thisObj._foreignLinksAttributeHashMap = [];
            thisObj.mandatorySelectAttributeList = this.mandatorySelectAttributeList || [];

            //get list of foreign fields of the entity this field belongs to
            $.each(this.getMetadata().get(['entityDefs', this.entityType, 'fields']), function (entityFieldName, entityFieldAttributes) {
                if ('type' in entityFieldAttributes && entityFieldAttributes.type === 'foreign' &&
                    'link' in entityFieldAttributes && entityFieldAttributes.link === thisObj.name &&
                    'field' in entityFieldAttributes) {
                    thisObj._foreignLinksAttributeHashMap.push({
                        entityFieldName: entityFieldName,
                        linkFieldName: entityFieldAttributes.field
                    });
                    thisObj.mandatorySelectAttributeList.push(entityFieldAttributes.field);
                }
            });
        },
