cubicweb-relationwidget 0.10.0

Select the relation widget for your relation

You can use the two following mecanisms to configure the user interface:

• either cubicweb.web.uihelper.FormConfig:

  from cubicweb.web import uihelper
  from cubes.relationwidget.views import RelationFacetWidget
  
  class MyEntityConfig(uihelper.FormConfig):
        etype = 'MyEntity'
        # Move `my_relation` into the attribute section:
        rels_as_attrs = ('my_relation', )
        # Edit `my_relation` using RelationFacetWidget:
        widgets = dict(
            my_relation=RelationFacetWidget,
        )

• or directly via uicfg.autoform_field_kwarg:

  from cubicweb.web.views import uicfg
  from cubes.relationwidget.views import RelationFacetWidget
  
  # edit the relation as attribute.
  uicfg.autoform_section.tag_subject_of(
      ('MyEntity', 'my_relation', '*'),
      formtype=('main', 'muledit'), section='attributes')
  
  # add the RelationFacetWidget for `my_relation`
  uicfg.autoform_field_kwargs.tag_subject_of(
      ('MyEntity', 'my_relation', '*'), {'widget': RelationFacetWidget})

Configure it (optional)

If you want to desactivate the ability to create a new entity to be linked to the edited one, you can do it:

• for a single relation using uicfg again:

  uicfg.autoform_field_kwargs.tag_subject_of(
  ('MyEntity', 'my_relation', '*'),
  {'widget': RelationFacetWidget(no_creation_form=True)})

• application-wide by overriding SearchForRelatedEntitiesView.has_creation_form to always return False:

  from cubes.relationwidget.view import SearchForRelatedEntitiesView
  
  class MySearchForRelatedEntitiesView(SearchForRelatedEntitiesView):
  
      @property
      def has_creation_from(self):
          return False
  
  def registration_callback(vreg):
      vreg.register_and_register(MySearchForRelatedEntitiesView,
                                 SearchForRelatedEntitiesView)

There is also a dialog_options dictionary that can be used to configure the bootstrap modal window (see http://getbootstrap.com/javascript/#modals-options):

uicfg.autoform_field_kwargs.tag_subject_of(
('MyEntity', 'my_relation', '*'),
{'widget': RelationFacetWidget(dialog_options={'keyboard': False})})
