Service Portal Widget, Delete or Update based on the button pressed

[Dylan Mann1]

I'm trying to create a widget which displays a users information. I'm calling both the User Table and my custom 'members table' which references many of the fields within the user table. When a user clicks the delete button I want the record from the members table to be deleted and when the update button is pressed I want the User table to be updated. This isn't my issue though. My issue is that when I use the server.update() method it updates and then deletes the record no matter which button is pressed. I understand why it's not working but not how to fix it. How can I separate the calls to the server?

Here's my client and server side code:

$scope.deleteUser = function() {

$scope.server.update();

}

$scope.updateUser = function() {

$scope.server.update();

}

================================

if(this.input) {

memberRecord.deleteRecord();

}

if(this.input) {

userRecord.first_name = this.input.user.firstName.toString();

userRecord.last_name = this.input.user.lastName.toString();

userRecord.email = this.input.user.email.toString();

userRecord.roles = this.input.user.roles.toString();

userRecord.update();

data.user = this.input.user;

gs.addInfoMessage('Update Successful');

}

Thanks,

Dylan

Hey Jesse do you have a full example of updating with a button.

The html, server, and client side sample code

Hi Dylan,
  You are very close to making these connections that you are attempting. One thing about Angular is that you can pass the whole data object in your function. What I mean by that is if you are using an ng-click function you can reference it like this:

<div ng-repeat="user in c.data.user_array">
      <div ng-click="deleteUser( user )" >{{user.first_name}}
      </div>
</div>
on your client controller you can reference that

function deleteUser( user ) {

      user.action = delete

      c.server.update()
}

I hope this helps and if you have any more questions let me know and I will be glad to help.

Hello Phillip what if I want to update information in a record could I use the same code

Text in a pre element is displayed in a fixed-width font, and it preserves both spaces and line breaks
