As Ryan says, it's generally easier to look at a partially working
example to understand what you are aiming for. But if I understand you
correctly, you might be able to use the "recursive rendering" feature of
lenses. You can define a lens for each item type (using <div
ex:role="lens" ex:itemTypes="Parent"> etc.). If the lens for the Parent
type displays the child, then the child lens will be invoked to display
each child.
<div ex:role="lens" ex:itemTypes="Parent">
...
<div ex:content=".tables"></div>
In place of the tables div, each child item should be displayed using
the child lens.
you need to specify that the valuetype of the tables property is "item"

Hello group
I have 2 data sets: One is a list of records with several fields per
record, and the other is a list of urls and other information that
goes with each url. Each record is linked to one or more urls. I
want to provide a view that presents each record together with the
urls (and associated information). I would appreciate guidance and
perhaps illustrations on how to do that using Exhibit.
Example data:
Parent
{items:[
{
type: "Parent",
id: "item1",
"label": "label for item 1",
"url": "http://url-for-metadata-field";,
"division": "some division",
"topic": "some topic",
"identifier": "http://url-for-identifier";,
"keywords": ["keyword1","keyword2"],
"tables": ["table1
<http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Resource/Doc/933/0092739.xls>", "table2
<http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Resource/Doc/933/table2.xls>"]
}
]
}
Child:
{items:[
{id: table1,
type: "Child",
label:"child label 1
<http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Resource/Doc/933/0092739.xls>",
"referredPageTitle": "some title",
"referredPageDescription": "some description",
"webPublicationDate": "December 22, 2005",
"lastModifiedDate": "December 29, 2007",
"documentType": "Excel Workbook",
"fileSize": "932 kb",
"filePath": "some-file-path
<http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Resource/Doc/933/0092739.xls>"
},
{id:table2,
type: "Child",
label: "child 2 label
<http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Resource/Doc/933/table2.xls>",
"referredPageTitle": "some other title",
"referredPageDescription": "yet another description",
"webPublicationDate": "October 11, 2008",
"lastModifiedDate": "October 14, 2009",
"documentType": "Excel Workbook",
"fileSize": "1292 kb",
"filePath": "some-other-file-path
<http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Resource/Doc/933/table2.xls>"
}
]
}
Many thanks
Peter
