List edit in a Data table widget

brittany_sorrel · ‎02-20-2018

Hi all,

I've embedded the Data table with Filter widget into a custom widget and now trying to see if it is possible to perform a list edit action on the table. I've searched through the community and haven't found anything yet.

I'm doubtful that the Data table with Filter widget will allow me to perform inline edits based on what the code was showing, but I wanted to ask if anyone has found a workaround for this limitation. Or do I need to use a different widget to be able to do inline list editing?

Thanks,

~britt

I put it inside the td. but there are a few other issues that I had to overcome in that the sp-editable-field directive requires a data model that you would normally get from the $sp.getForm call. But I didn't want to call that for every record in the list, so created a custom script include to give me the data I needed for each field. If you think of a better way, let me know, but here is the update set for what I did. hope that helps you.

yeh, I noticed that as well. I think some work will need to be done to get it working on this control. I saw that issue a couple months ago, but haven't had time to work on it since.

Hi Jon,

I found your editable list widgets very helpful, but for ESS users with no roles, it keeps throwing 500 (Internal Server Error) when it is trying to "PUT". Can you please point me to the right direction, and also I would to know if there any documentation or resources that you used for building these portal widgets. I cant find any documentations on these such as the sp-editable-field directives.

Thank you - this works great!! One thing I cannot figure out is how to reorder the table columns. I have three fields showing and I need to get one of them moved to the the first column in the table. Let me know if there is an easy way to do this. Thanks!!!
