FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package dynamic-dropdown
Pimcore - Dynamic Dropdown
Dynamic Dropdown allows you to populate pimcore input fields with the content of other objcts.
Getting started
- Download Plugin and place it in your plugins directory
- Open Extension Manager in Pimcore and enable/install Plugin
- After Installation within Pimcore Extension Manager, you have to reload Pimcore
or install it via composer on an existing pimcore installation
Configuring
The plugin doesn't require any configuration but provides several input elements. These input fields can be configured like any other of pimcore's input elements.
Usage
The plugin extends pimcores class data compent menu in the section "Select". Four new elements can be used:
-
Dynamic Dropdown: a single select dropdown menu
-
Dynamic Dropdown (multiselect): a box with several items to select. Select one by clicking it, all other will be deselected. Hold the CTRL-key while clicking to add the item without deselecting the others.
-
Itemselector: the items are displayed in two columns, on the left are the available (or remaining) items, on the right are the selected ones. Transfer to the other column by doubleclicking or using the left/right arrow button. Up/down arrow buttons arrange the order.
- Superbox Select: Like a "tag field". Select one item and it get's displayed, click the little "x" next to it to remove it.
Options
The options for all input elements are the same, only the way the information is presented differes.
Following options need to be set:
- Width: the width of input element
- Parent ID: the path to the folder containing the source objects. You can use drag&drop
- Recursive: check this if objects in subfolders shall be used as well
- Unpublished selectable: usually unpublished objects will be displayed in the item list, but be of a grey color and unselectable. Check this if you want unpublished objects to be selectable. This option is currently only used by the single select dropdown!
- Sort by: either "Value" or "Id". By value is alphabetically ascending, by Id is numerically ascending by pimcore's object id.
- Allowed classes: the object class, that provides the data. Only objects of this class we be considered, all others will be ignored.
- Method: the method that provides the data. The possible methods are extracted from the class definition of the source class.
Dynamic Dropdown
The Dynamic Dropdown is the "classic" version of the provided input elements: a dropdown input field (ExtJS: Combobox). Every option is provided by an object in a configured folder, by a configured method. The folder can have nested subfolders, but only one type of object class can provide the data.
This input element extends pimcore's href element. Programatically, you can set it's value with the API like you'd do with a href.
Dynamic Dropdown (multiselect)
The multiselect Dynamic Dropdown is like the single select version, but you can select more than one item. It uses ExtJS' UX MultiSelect. It extends pimcore's multiselection. Setting it with the API is like working with a multiselection.
Itemselector
The Itemselector is like the Multiselect, but uses the ItemSelector as UI element.
SuperboxSelect
The SuperboxSelect is like the Multiselect, but uses the TagField as UI element.
