Hello,
I modify SELECT_OR_ADD_OPTION in order to combine autocomplete widget and
the SELECT_OR_ADD_OPTION widget, but only thing I get from autocomplete in
form is it instance id :
<gluon.sqlhtml.AutocompleteWidget object at 0x44f0390>
Here what I change in SELECT_OR_ADD_OPTION :
class SELECT_OR_ADD_OPTION(object):
def __init__(self, controller=None, function=None, form_title=None,
button_text = None, dialog_width=1000):
if form_title == None:
self.form_title = T('Add New')
else:
self.form_title = T(form_title)
if button_text == None:
self.button_text = T('Add')
else:
self.button_text = T(button_text)
self.dialog_width = dialog_width
self.controller = controller
self.function = function
def widget(self, field, value):
#from gluon.sqlhtml import *
#generate the standard widget for this field
select_widget =* AutocompleteWidget(request,
db.ref_eregistry.exp_num,*
* id_field=db.ref_eregistry.eregistry_id, limitby=(0,10),
min_length=2)*
#get the widget's id (need to know later on so can tell receiving
controller what to update)
my_select_id =*
'table1_eregistry_id'*#select_widget.attributes.get('_id', None)
add_args = [my_select_id]
#create a div that will load the specified controller via ajax
form_loader_div = DIV(LOAD(c=self.controller, f=self.function,
args=add_args,ajax=True), _id=my_select_id+"_dialog-form",
_title=self.form_title)
#generate the "add" button that will appear next the options widget
and open our dialog
activator_button = A(T(self.button_text),
_id=my_select_id+"_option_add_trigger")
#create javascript for creating and opening the dialog
js = '$( "#%s_dialog-form" ).dialog({autoOpen: false, show: "fade",
hide: "fade", width: %s});' % (my_select_id, self.dialog_width)
js += '$( "#%s_option_add_trigger" ).click(function() { $(
"#%s_dialog-form" ).dialog( "open" );return false;}); ' % (my_select_id,
my_select_id)
#decorate our activator button for good measure
js += '$(function() { $( "#%s_option_add_trigger" ).button({text:
true, icons: { primary: "ui-icon-circle-plus"} }); });' % (my_select_id)
jq_script=SCRIPT(js, _type="text/javascript")
wrapper = DIV(_id=my_select_id+"_adder_wrapper")
wrapper.components.extend([ select_widget, form_loader_div,
activator_button, jq_script])
return wrapper
Help will be really appreciate.
