I'm trying to build some foundations for a single page web app in Backbone.js. I've structured my JSON into "screens", with each screen being given an ID.
I would like to be able to render data from specific screens, both for the initial page load, and also after on.click events.
I've been trying to pass in an ID when I create a new model instance, but so far I'm getting erratic results: It is rendering different sections of JSON than I indicate, or simply rendering all of it. Any pointers on how to select a specific 'screen' (via its ID) would be greatly appreciated.
Here's an indicative JSON sample code:
[{
"id": 0,
"options": [
{ "text": "Tackle player", "next": [ 0, 1 ] },
{ "text": "Dribble the ball", "next": [ 1 ] }
],
"results": [
{ "text": "Tackle successful", "next": [ 0 ] },
{ "text": "You are close enough to shoot", "next": [ 0, 1 ] }
]
},
{
"id": 1,
"options": [
{ "text": "BLAH", "next": [ 0, 1 ] },
{ "text": "BLAH2", "next": [ 1 ] }
],
"results": [
{ "text": "BLAH3", "next": [ 0 ] },
{ "text": "BLAH4", "next": [ 0, 1 ] }
]
}
]
And here's my backbone code:
var app = app || {};
app.Screen = Backbone.Model.extend({
url: '/api',
parse: function(response){
return response;
}
});
var Screens = Backbone.Collection.extend({
model: app.Screen,
url: '/api'
});
app.AppView = Backbone.View.extend({
initialize: function(parameters){
this.listenTo(this.collection, 'add', this.addOne);
},
render: function(){
this.$el.html("test");
this.addAll();
return this;
},
addAll: function(){
this.collection.each(this.addOne, this);
},
addOne: function(model){
var screen_view = new app.ScreenView({
model: model});
screen_view.render();
this.$el.append(screen_view.el);
}
});
app.ScreenView = Backbone.View.extend({
template: _.template(
'<ul id="options">' +
'<% _.each(options, function(info) { %>' +
'<li id="optionA"><%= info.text %></li>' +
'<% }); %>' +
'</ul>'
),
initialize: function(options) {
this.listenTo(this.model, 'change', this.render);
this.listenTo(this.model, 'destroy', this.remove);
},
render: function() {
this.$el.html(this.template(this.model.toJSON()));
return this;
}
});
$(function() {
var screen = new app.Screen({id:0}); //CURRENTLY BEHAVING VERY STRANGELY - change ID to 1 and you will get id 0 expected responses
app.screenCollection = new Screens([screen]);
app.screenCollection.fetch();
new app.AppView({
collection: app.screenCollection, el: $('.gameWrapper')
}).render();
});
Why not just reference the array index in your parsed JSON data where screens is the array of screens:
var screen = new app.Screen(screens[index]);
The alternative is to use something like JSONPath to access the object based on the id which is a little more complicated.

I am developing of a SAPUI5 application, in my application I need to pass data from one View1 to View2. I follow some sample code from internet but it seems like does not work for me.
The following is my source code
View1.controller.js
onShoppingCartPressed: function(){
var viewCartData = {
"Customer" : SelectedCustomer,
"Salesman" : SelectedSalesman,
"TxnKey" : "TXN1000103"
};
this._oRouter.navTo("ViewCarts", viewCartData);
}
View2.controller.js
onInit: function () {
this._oRouter.getRoute("ViewCarts")
.attachMatched(this._onRouteMatched, this);
},
_onRouteMatched: function(oEvent) {
console.log(oEvent.getParameter("arguments"));
},
Manifest.json
"routing": {
"config": {
"routerClass": "sap.f.routing.Router",
"viewType": "XML",
"viewPath": "com.accenture.newspage.order.ui.order-ui.view",
"controlId": "flexibleColumnLayout",
"transition": "slide",
"controlAggregation": "beginColumnPages",
"bypassed": {
"target": [
"notFound"
]
},
"async": true
},
"routes": [
{
"pattern": "orderDetail/{order}/{layout}",
"name": "orderDetail",
"target": [
"order",
"orderDetail"
]
},
{
"pattern": "ViewCarts",
"name": "ViewCarts",
"target": "viewCarts"
}
],
"targets": {
"worklist": {
"viewName": "Worklist",
"viewId": "worklist",
"viewLevel": 1
},
"viewCarts": {
"viewName": "ViewCart",
"viewId": "ViewCartPage",
"viewLevel": 1
}
}
}
When I console.log() out the data, it shows me empty data and it does not show the data that I passed from View1.
You seem to have two options here in my option. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Hope this helps.
Option 1
Manifest
{
"pattern": "ViewCarts/customer/{Customer}/Salesman/{Salesman}/key/{TxnKey}",
"name": "ViewCarts",
"target": "ViewCarts"
}
Sending controller
onShoppingCartPressed: function(oEvent) {
var oRouter = sap.ui.core.UIComponent.getRouterFor(this);
oRouter.navTo("viewCarts", {
Customer: "XXXXXXXXXXXX", // can't be an object
Salesman: "xxxxxxxxxxxx",
TxnKey : "TXN1000103"
});
}
Receiving controller
onInit: function() {
var oRouter = sap.ui.core.UIComponent.getRouterFor(this);
oRouter.getRoute("viewCarts").attachMatched(this._onRouteMatched, this);
},
_onRouteMatched: function(oEvent) {
var customer = oEvent.getParameter("arguments").Customer;
var salesman = oEvent.getParameter("arguments").Salesman;
var key = oEvent.getParameter("arguments").TxnKey;
}
Option 2
Manifest
No changes from yours
Sending controller
onShoppingCartPressed: function(oEvent) {
var viewCartData = {
"Customer": "XXXXXXXXXXXX",
"Salesman": "xxxxxxxxxxxx",
"TxnKey": "TXN1000103"
};
var oModel = new sap.ui.model.json.JSONModel(viewCartData);
this.getOwnerComponent().setModel(oModel, "viewCartData");
// OR sap.ui.getCore().setModel(oModel, "viewCartData");
var oRouter = sap.ui.core.UIComponent.getRouterFor(this);
oRouter.navTo("viewCarts");
}
Receiving controller
onInit: function() {
var oRouter = sap.ui.core.UIComponent.getRouterFor(this);
oRouter.getRoute("viewCarts").attachMatched(this._onRouteMatched, this);
},
_onRouteMatched: function(oEvent) {
var oModel = this.getView().getModel("viewCartData");
// OR var oModel = sap.ui.getCore().getModel("viewCartData");
}
For me in most scenarios it's better to use sessionStorage.
It allows you to save almost anything (also javascript Object) and access it anywhere in webapp.
sessionStorage.setItem('myKeyString', 'myString'); //Set value
sessionStorage.getItem('myKeyString'); // Get saved string
sessionStorage.setItem('myObject', JSON.stringify({"key": "value"})); // Save object
JSON.parse(sessionStorage.getItem('myObject')); // Get saved object
The documentation at https://sapui5.hana.ondemand.com/#/controls provides many SAPUI5 samples. But all the views are written in XML. I can find examples written in Javascript elsewhere but I'm asking for a general rule to apply on XML code. Here is an example List.view.xml wich I need to manually convert to List.view.js
<mvc:View
height="100%"
controllerName="sap.m.sample.ListSelectionSearch.List"
xmlns:l="sap.ui.layout"
xmlns:core="sap.ui.core"
xmlns:mvc="sap.ui.core.mvc"
xmlns="sap.m">
<Page
showHeader="false" >
<subHeader>
<Toolbar>
<SearchField
liveChange="onSearch"
width="100%" />
</Toolbar>
</subHeader>
<content>
<List
id="idList"
items="{/ProductCollection}"
selectionChange="onSelectionChange"
mode="MultiSelect"
includeItemInSelection="true" >
<infoToolbar>
<Toolbar
visible="false"
id="idInfoToolbar" >
<Label id="idFilterLabel" />
</Toolbar>
</infoToolbar>
<items>
<StandardListItem
title="{Name}"
description="{ProductId}"
icon="{ProductPicUrl}"
iconDensityAware="false"
iconInset="false" />
</items>
</List>
</content>
</Page>
Any help will be appreciated.
Here is the same in SAPUI5's JSView with list aggregation done in the controller:
Alternatively, have a look at this full application Example SAPUI5 JSView Application

Make use of the Diagnostic tool by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+S and API References
sap.ui.define(["sap/m/Page", "sap/m/List", "sap/m/Toolbar", "sap/m/SearchField", "sap/m/Label", "sap/m/Text"], function(Page, List, Toolbar, SearchField, Label, Text) {

});
var oInfoToolbar = new Toolbar({
content: new Toolbar(this.createId("idInfoToolbar"), {

});
var app = new sap.m.App();
app.addPage(oPage);
app.placeAt("content");
return app;
}
});
});
//in Controller

"use strict";
var oData = {
"ProductCollection": [{
"titleId": 0,

};
return sap.ui.controller("sap.m.sample.ListSelectionSearch.List", {
// onInit: function() {
// },
onAfterRendering: function() {
var oModel = new JSONModel(oData);
this.getView().setModel(oModel, "products");
var oTemplate = new StandardListItem({
title: "{products>Name}",
description: "{products>ProductId}",
icon: "{products>ProductPicUrl}",
iconDensityAware: false,
iconInset: false,
type: "Active"
});
oTemplate.attachPress(this.onSelectionChange, this);
this.getView().byId("idList").bindItems({
path: "/ProductCollection",
template: oTemplate,
model: "products"
});
},
onSearch: function() {
console.log("Searching");
},
onSelectionChange: function() {
console.log("changing Selection");
}
});
});
Should not be that difficult:
new sap.m.Page({
showHeader: false,
subHeader: new sap.m.Toolbar({
content: [ // (**)
new sap.m.SearchField({
liveChange: onSearch, // event handler
width: "100%"
})
]
}),
content: [
new sap.m.List({
//...
})
]
});
OR you can keep writing XML and then create JS instances from it using API:
sap.ui.xmlfragment
sap.ui.xmlview
(**) here is probably the trickiest part. How could you know that this should be wrapped inside "content" property? Very easy! If you see one control inside another directly (without any tags around it), it means inner control is in default aggregation of parent control. So, all you need to do is check what is the name of the default aggregation of the parent control. In case of sap.m.Toolbar it's a content.
UPDATE: however, it might be difficult to understand which aggregation is default, because in our docs we do not show this information. I will contact responsible team on this matter. As a work around it's possible to get this information from the source code, e.g. sap.m.Page - see defaultAggregation definition in metadata description.
Please see the example below
View:
sap.ui.jsview("ResourceRootName.view.ViewName", {
getControllerName: function() {
return "ResourceRootName.view.ViewName";
},
createContent : function(oController) {
this.oList = new sap.m.List({
showUnread: true,
mode: sap.ui.Device.system.phone ? sap.m.ListMode.None : sap.m.ListMode.SingleSelectMaster,
itemPress: [oController.onListSelect, oController]
});
this.page = new sap.m.Page({
title: "{i18n>pageTitle}",
navButtonText: "Home",
showNavButton: true,
navButtonPress: function() {
oController.handleNavBack();
},
subHeader: new sap.m.Bar({
contentMiddle: [
new sap.m.SearchField(oController.createId("searchFieldTasks"), {
width: "100%"
})
]
}),
content: [this.oList]
});
return this.page; //Note: if you need to return more than two controls you can do so by using array
}
});
In controller you can bind your list as below
Controller:
this.getView().oList.bindAggregation("items", {
path: "/EntityCollectionSet",
template: new sap.m.StandardListItem({
title: "{Title}",
description: "{Description}"
}),
filters: []//If you want to pass any filters
});
I am trying to filter results using Typeahead.js. I can currently filter the results using a field called activity_title. This works fine.
How can I filter my results by a second value? In this case, I would like to select only the results that have a certain value for activity_level. I need to set this when the typeahead is initialised rather than hard coding it into the Bloodhound initialisation (e.g. I don't want to use url: 'api/activity/&range=1,3')
I have the following valid JSON that I access remotely:
{
"meta": [
{
"name": "activity_id",
"table": "table",
"max_length": 4
},
{
"name": "activity_title",
"table": "table",
"max_length": 91
},
{
"name": "activity_level",
"table": "table",
"max_length": 2
}
],
"detail": [
{
"activity_id": "57",
"activity_title": "Help old ladies to cross the road.",
"activity_level": "2"
},
{
"activity_id": "58",
"activity_title": "Help mum with the washing up.",
"activity_level": "3"
},
{
"activity_id": "59",
"activity_title": "Shine my shoes",
"activity_level": "1"
},
{
"activity_id": "60",
"activity_title": "Put the bins out",
"activity_level": "1"
}
]
}
I set up a Bloodhound instance like this:
var activities = new Bloodhound({
datumTokenizer: function (datum) {
return Bloodhound.tokenizers.whitespace(datum.activity_title);
},
queryTokenizer: Bloodhound.tokenizers.whitespace,
prefetch: {
url: '/api/activity/',
filter: function(data) {
return $.map(data['detail'], function(detail) {
return {
activity_id: detail.activity_id,
activity_title: detail.activity_title,
objective_level: detail.objective_level
};
});
}
}
});
I use Typeahead.js to do a lookup on the data as I type.
$( document ).on( "focus", ".typeahead-init", function() {
// + '&range=' + minimum + ',' + maximum
var minimum = $('#group-level-min-1').val();
var maximum = $('#group-level-max-1').val();
$(this).typeahead({
highlight: true
},
{
name: 'activity_title',
displayKey: 'activity',
source: activities.ttAdapter(),
templates: {
header: '<div class="header-name">Activities</div>',
empty: [
'<div class="empty-message">',
'No activities match your search',
'</div>'
].join('\n'),
suggestion: Handlebars.compile('<div class="typeahead-activity" id="typeahead-activity-{{activity_id}}"><strong>{{objective_level}}</strong> - {{activity_title}}</div>')
}
})
//info on binding selection at https://github.com/twitter/typeahead.js/issues/300
.bind('typeahead:selected', function(obj, datum, name) {
var target = $(this).closest('.activity-container');
var activityId = datum['activity_id'];
var url = '/api/activity/id/'+activityId;
$(target).children('.activity-id').val(activityId);
//http://runnable.com/UllA9u8MD5wiAACj/how-to-combine-json-with-handlebars-js-for-javascript-ajax-and-jquery
var raw_template = $('#activity-output').html();
// Compile that into an handlebars template
var template = Handlebars.compile(raw_template);
// Fetch all data from server in JSON
$.get(url,function(data,status,xhr){
$.each(data,function(index,element){
// Generate the HTML for each post
var html = template(element);
// Render the posts into the page
target.append(html);
});
});
});
$(this).removeClass("typeahead-init");
$(this).focus();
});
This has been cobbled together from several answers on Stackoverflow and others. Any help greatly appreciated.
I use can.Component to dispay JSON on the page.
can.Component.extend({
tag: "some-app",
scope: {
items: new Items.List({}),
displayedItems: function () {
...
return items;
}
},
helpers: {
...
},
events: {
"{Items} created": function (Items, ev, newItem) {
...
}
}
})
How can I get "meta" section of received JSON (below) to the scope or helpers?
{
"data": [
{
"description": "Some text",
"id": 1,
"measurement": "pcs",
"name": "Name of item",
"resource_uri": "/api/v1/item/1/"
},
{....}, {....}
}
],
"meta": {
"limit": 20,
"next": null,
"offset": 0,
"previous": null,
"total_count": 3
}
}
I can get it in console with Items.findAll().then(function(info){console.log(info.attr('meta'))}) , but I'm noob in (can.)js and can't understand how to get it in the place I need.
Instead of this:
scope: {
items: new Items.List({})
}
make the request:
scope: {
items: Items.findAll()
}
There are other ways to do this as well, in the template(not advised), or creating the request in another controller or component and passing in to the instantiation of the component.
If you want more specifics, you would nee to update your question with more details on your model.
Hi guys please take a look at this having trouble reaching second level inside a object that looks like this:
{
"results": [{
"title": "TEAM",
"subtitle": "athletes",
"offset": 0,
"icon": "info",
"relevance": 1,
"link": {
"title": "HOME",
"url": "http://www.test.com",
"id": "23458"
}]
}
and this is the code I have:
var theJson = {
init: function() {
this.url = 'http://test.com/js?jsonfeed=123123';
this.fetch();
},
fetch: function() {
$.getJSON(this.url, function( data ){
var obj = $.map(data.results, function( newObj ){
return {
title: newObj .title,
icon: newObj.icon,
topic: newObj.link.id, //??
topic: newObj["link"].id //??
topic: newObj[1].id //??
};
});
});
}
};
theJson.init();
My question is how do I reach the id var in link array inside results object? Thank guys you all rock!
You are doing it correct the first and second time:
newObj.link.id
newObj["link"].id
There are both correct ways to get the id under link.
You can easily access it by index, like that:
newObj["link"][0]
