| |
67.1 | 5 | The suggest widget is implemented using [[Selectize.js>>http://selectize.github.io/selectize.js/]] with its Bootstrap skin and is bundled by default in XWiki platform. |
 |
1.1 | 6 | |
| |
67.1 | 7 | == Predefined Suggesters == |
| |
1.1 | 8 | |
| |
67.1 | 9 | A couple of suggesters are available by default in XWiki. Each suggester provides: |
| |
14.1 | 10 | |
| |
67.1 | 11 | * dedicated helper Velocity macros (to import required resources and to output the required HTML) |
| 12 | * a jQuery plugin to activate the suggest behavior on any input or select element | ||
| 13 | * a CSS class that activates the suggest behavior automatically | ||
| |
14.1 | 14 | |
| |
67.1 | 15 | The dedicated Velocity macros are in fact loading a JavaScript code that calls the dedicated jQuery plugin on all the elements (input or select) that are marked with the dedicated CSS class. Here's the list of available suggesters: |
| |
49.1 | 16 | |
| |
67.1 | 17 | |=Data|=Velocity Macros|=jQuery Plugin|=CSS Class |
| 18 | |Pages|pagePicker, pagePicker_import|suggestPages|suggest-pages | ||
| 19 | |Attachments|attachmentPicker, attachmentPicker_import|suggestAttachments|suggest-attachments | ||

| |
67.1 | 24 | === Usage === |
| |
14.1 | 25 | |
| |
67.1 | 26 | There are 3 ways in which you can activate a predefined suggester: |
| 27 | |||
| 28 | * from Velocity (by calling the dedicated Velocity macro) | ||
| 29 | * from JavaScript (by calling the dedicated jQyery plugin) | ||
| 30 | * from HTML (by marking form fields with the dedicated CSS class) | ||
| 31 | |||
| 32 | Use the one that suits you the best. | ||
| 33 | |||
| 34 | ==== From Velocity ==== | ||
| 35 | |||
| 36 | You can do this by putting the following code in the content of a wiki page. Here we're calling the dedicated ##pagePicker## Velocity macro. Note that you can pass configuration options. Most of these settings are translated into HTML attributes (of the generated suggest input element) read by the dedicated jQuery plugin. You can use the ##data-xwiki-selectize## parameter to pass configuration options to the [[Selectize.js>>https://github.com/selectize/selectize.js/blob/master/docs/usage.md#configuration]] widget. Each predefined suggester might also have custom parameters you can set, check their documentation below. | ||
| 37 | |||
| 38 | {{code language="none"}} | ||
| 39 | {{velocity}} | ||
| 40 | {{html}} | ||
| 41 | #set ($pagePickerParams = { | ||
| 42 | 'name': 'targetPages', | ||
| 43 | 'value': ['Path.To.Alice', 'Path.To.Bob'], | ||
| 44 | 'multiple': 'multiple' | ||
| 45 | }) | ||
| 46 | #pagePicker($pagePickerParams) | ||
| 47 | {{/html}} | ||
| 48 | {{/velocity}} | ||
| |
48.1 | 49 | {{/code}} |
| |
1.1 | 50 | |
| |
67.1 | 51 | ==== From JavaScript ==== |
| |
1.1 | 52 | |
| |
67.1 | 53 | You can do this from a JavaScript Skin extension. First you need to configure the path to the suggester you want to use and then you need to call the dedicated jQuery plugin (##suggestAttachments##) from a require block. Note that you can pass configuration options when activating the suggester. These configuration options are either generic (for the [[Selectize>>https://github.com/selectize/selectize.js/blob/master/docs/usage.md#configuration]] widget) or specific to each suggester (see below). |
| 54 | |||
| 55 | {{code language="js"}} | ||
| 56 | require.config({ | ||
| 57 | paths: { | ||
| 58 | 'xwiki-suggestAttachments': "$xwiki.getSkinFile('uicomponents/suggest/suggestAttachments.js', true)" + | ||
| 59 | "?v=$escapetool.url($xwiki.version)" | ||
| 60 | } | ||
| 61 | }); | ||
| 62 | |||
| 63 | require(['jquery', 'xwiki-suggestAttachments'], function($) { | ||
| 64 | $('input[name="logo"]').suggestAttachments({ | ||
| 65 | accept: 'image/,.mp4,.pdf', | ||
| 66 | uploadAllowed: true | ||
| 67 | }); | ||
| 68 | }); | ||
| |
48.1 | 69 | {{/code}} |
| |
1.1 | 70 | |
| |
67.1 | 71 | Of course, you still need to load your skin extension code (from the content of a wiki page): |
| |
17.1 | 72 | |
| |
67.1 | 73 | {{code language="none"}} |
| 74 | {{velocity}} | ||
| 75 | {{html}} | ||
| 76 | #set ($discard = $xwiki.jsx.use('Path.To.Your.JSX')) | ||
| 77 | <input type="text" name="logo" value="Sandbox.WebHome@XWikiLogo.png"/> | ||
| 78 | {{/html}} | ||
| 79 | {{/velocity}} | ||
| 80 | {{/code}} | ||
| |
17.1 | 81 | |
| |
67.1 | 82 | ==== From HTML ==== |
| |
17.1 | 83 | |
| |
67.1 | 84 | Put the following code in the content of a wiki page. First you need to import the resources required by the suggester and then you need to mark the form fields you wish to enhance (using the dedicated CSS class, ##suggest-users## here). Note that you can use the ##data-xwiki-selectize## attribute to pass configuration options in JSON format to the [[Selectize.js>>https://github.com/selectize/selectize.js/blob/master/docs/usage.md#configuration]] widget. Each predefined suggester might also have custom attributes you can set, check their documentation below. |

67.1 | 96 | === Suggest Pages === |
| |
30.1 | 97 | |
| |
67.1 | 98 | This suggester displays the page rendered title and the page location. The value that is saved in the end is the page reference. The hidden page user preference is taken into account. |

| 117 | |||
| 118 | === Suggest Attachments === | ||
| 119 | |||
| 120 | This suggester displays the attachment (file) name and the attachment location. The suggestion icon is either a preview, if the attachment is an image or an icon that depends on the attachment media type. The value that is saved in the end is the attachment reference. The hidden page user preference is taken into account (e.g. attachments from hidden pages are not displayed by default). | ||
| 121 | |||
| 122 | {{code language="none"}} | ||
| 123 | {{velocity}} | ||
| 124 | {{html}} | ||
| 125 | #set ($attachmentPickerParams = { | ||

| |
48.1 | 134 | |
| |
67.1 | 135 | It supports local file upload, either by selecting the files from the file browser or by dropping them on the suggest input. It also supports drag and drop of attachment links from the Attachment tab at the bottom of the wiki page. |
| 136 | |||
| 137 | Custom configuration parameters: | ||
| 138 | |||

| 145 | |data-upload-allowed|Whether to allow the user to upload files|false | ||
| 146 | |data-accept|(((Indicates the type of files that can be selected or uploaded. The value is a comma separated list of: | ||
| 147 | * file name extensions (e.g. .png,.pdf) | ||
| 148 | * complete or partial media types (e.g. image/,video/mpeg) | ||
| 149 | |||
| 150 | If nothing is specified then no restriction is applied.)))|None | ||
| 151 | |||
| 152 | === Suggest Users === | ||
| 153 | |||
| 154 | This suggester displays the user avatar and their name. The value that is saved in the end is the user reference (the reference of the user profile page). | ||
| 155 | |||
| 156 | {{code language="none"}} | ||
| 157 | {{velocity}} | ||
| 158 | {{html}} | ||
| 159 | #set ($userPickerParams = { | ||

| |
45.1 | 170 | |
| |
67.1 | 171 | |=Name|=Description|=Default Value |
| 172 | |data-userScope|Where to retrieve the user suggestions from. Supported values are: LOCAL_ONLY, GLOBAL_ONLY, LOCAL_AND_GLOBAL|User scope of the current wiki | ||
| |
45.1 | 173 | |
| |
67.1 | 174 | === Suggest Groups === |
| 175 | |||
| 176 | The suggester displays the group logo and its name. The group logo is the first image attachment found on the group page. The value that is saved in the end is the group reference (the reference of the group page). | ||
| 177 | |||
| 178 | {{code language="none"}} | ||
| 179 | {{velocity}} | ||
| 180 | {{html}} | ||
| 181 | #set ($groupPickerParams = { | ||

| 194 | |data-userScope|Where to retrieve the group suggestions from. Supported values are: LOCAL_ONLY, GLOBAL_ONLY, LOCAL_AND_GLOBAL. Note that GLOBAL_ONLY has the same effect as LOCAL_AND_GLOBAL because a wiki with only global users can have local groups|User scope of the current wiki | ||
 |
38.1 | 195 | |
| |
67.1 | 196 | === Suggest Property Values === |
| |
49.1 | 197 | |
| |
67.1 | 198 | This suggester displays the label assocaited with a property value and saves the raw property value. The following property types are supported by this suggester: Static List and Database List. Note that these property types have default custom displayers associated that load the suggest widget when the "Use suggest" meta property is on. So normally the only thing you need to do is to display the property. |
| |
49.1 | 199 | |
| |
67.1 | 200 | {{code language="none"}} |
| 201 | {{velocity}} | ||
| 202 | $doc.display('myDatabaseListProperty') | ||
| 203 | {{/velocity}} | ||
| 204 | {{/code}} | ||
| |
38.1 | 205 | |
| |
67.1 | 206 | {{image reference="propertyValuePicker.png"/}} |
| 207 | |||
| |
81.1 | 208 | If you don't have a property to display then you can also enable this suggester by calling the generic ##suggestInput## macro like this: |
| 209 | |||
| 210 | {{code language="none"}} | ||
| 211 | {{velocity}} | ||
| 212 | {{html}} | ||
| 213 | #set ($discard = $xwiki.jsfx.use('uicomponents/suggest/suggestPropertyValues.js', | ||
| 214 | {'forceSkinAction': true, 'language': $xcontext.locale})) | ||
| 215 | #set ($suggestParams = { | ||
| 216 | 'class': 'suggest-propertyValues', | ||
| 217 | 'placeholder': 'Select the movie director', | ||
| 218 | 'data-className': 'Help.Applications.Movies.Code.MoviesClass', | ||
| 219 | 'data-propertyName': 'databaseList1' | ||
| 220 | }) | ||
| 221 | #suggestInput($suggestParams) | ||
| 222 | {{/html}} | ||
| 223 | {{/velocity}} | ||
| 224 | {{/code}} | ||
| 225 | |||
| |
82.1 | 226 | If you need tag suggestions then you can use this configuration: |
| 227 | |||
| 228 | {{code language="none"}} | ||
| 229 | #set ($suggestParams = { | ||
| 230 | 'class': 'suggest-propertyValues', | ||
| 231 | 'multiple': 'multiple', | ||
| 232 | 'data-className': 'XWiki.TagClass', | ||
| 233 | 'data-propertyName': 'tags' | ||
| 234 | }) | ||
| 235 | {{/code}} | ||
| 236 | |||
| |
67.1 | 237 | Custom configuration parameters: |
| 238 | |||
| 239 | |=Name|=Description|=Default Value | ||
| 240 | |data-className|The class where the property is defined|None | ||
| 241 | |data-propertyName|The property whose values are to be retrieved as suggestions|None | ||
| 242 | |data-freeText|Whether free text is allowed or forbidden. Possible values are: allowed, forbidden|None | ||
| 243 | |||
| 244 | == Custom Suggesters == | ||
| 245 | |||
| 246 | === Suggest from Static Data === | ||
| 247 | |||
| 248 | Let's see how you can use the suggest widget with static data (i.e. data that is available when the web page is loaded). | ||
| 249 | |||
| 250 | {{html wiki="true"}} | ||
