Configuring list view, quick view, and show view display
On the domain view, three views are present to display data:
- List View: table representation of entity data with configurable paging defaulting to 10 entries per page.
- Quick View: allows to review information of one or more individual entries, while still observing the List View.
- Show View: displays individual entry information in a separate page
Each of the views may have its own set of fields. By default, all persistent entity fields of the following types are displayed:
- Byte
- Short
- Integer
- Long
- Float
- Double
- BigDecimal
- Date
- String
- Fields associated with other entities
It is possible to narrow down the list of persistent entity fields by explicitly specifying fields to be displayed:
@Administration( Booking.class )
public class BookingAdministration {
public static FieldSetConfigurationUnit listView( final FieldSetConfigurationUnitBuilder fragmentBuilder ) {
return fragmentBuilder
.field( "user" ).caption( "Customer" )
.field( "hotel" ).caption( "Hotel" )
.field( "smoking" ).caption( "Smoking" )
.field( "beds" ).caption( "Beds" ).build();
}
public static FieldSetConfigurationUnit quickView( final FieldSetConfigurationUnitBuilder fragmentBuilder ) {
return fragmentBuilder
.field( "checkinDate" ).caption( "Check-In Date" )
.field( "checkoutDate" ).caption( "Check-Out Date" ).build();
}
public static FieldSetConfigurationUnit showView( final FieldSetConfigurationUnitBuilder fragmentBuilder ) {
return fragmentBuilder
.field( "user" ).caption( "Customer" )
.field( "hotel" ).caption( "Hotel" )
.field( "smoking" ).caption( "Smoking" )
.field( "beds" ).caption( "Beds" )
.field( "checkinDate" ).caption( "Check-In Date" )
.field( "checkoutDate" ).caption( "Check-Out Date" ).build();
}
}
This will produce the following result:
Along with persistent fields, each of the views can display the following types of fields:
- Fields with dynamically calculated values, such as fields of an associated entity, results of entity's methods calls, non-persistent entity fields
- Fields with custom content based on persistent and associated fields
