Zend Framework - multiplate navigation blocks
I'm trying to make breadcrumbs render in my application ( they don't show up anywhere, not even the homepage, which has a corresponding Zend Page Uri object ), which has multiple navigation areas - primary and utility. For the menu generation, I have a MenuController which I render with from within the layout using:
$this->layout()->utility = $this->action('render', 'menu', null, array('menu' => $this->utilityId));
$this->layout()->nav = $this->action('render', 'menu', null, array('menu' => $this->mainMenuId));
The utilityId and mainMenuId properties are numbers, grabbed from a database.
The Menu controller's render method just builds an array and creates a Zend Navigation object, then invokes setContainer and sets it to that container. This is pseudo code because it's rather long:
// MenuController.php
private function renderAction() {
$itemArray[] = array('label' => $label, 'uri' => $uri ); // in a loop
$container = new Zend_Navigation($itemArray);
if ( $container instanceof Zend_Navigation_Container ) {
$this->view->navigation()->setContainer( $container );
$uri = $this->_request->getPathInfo();
$item = $this->view->navigation()->findByUri($uri);
$item->active = true;
}
}
So this render method is called twice from within the layout for the utility and nav.
EDIT:
I think the issue is that I need to specify the $container so my code would be
$this->navigation($container)->breadcrumbs();
However because I'm using $this->action('render', 'menu' ) the $container variable is set there and not returned, is there a way I can specify the container some other way? Possibly using $this->layout()->nav and a property in that which points to the container.
This looks like it's the same issue and someone suggests setting/getting them with Zend_Registry, perhaps I'll try this out.

I suspect you don't have a navigational hierarchy. You need pages within pages.
e.g.
Home Page
[pages] => Sign In
[pages] => Forgot Password
=> Create Account
[pages] => Confirm Account Email
=> Email Confirmed
With the above, breadcrumbs will be rendered on all active pages except for the Home Page... all pages if you do this:
$this->navigation()->breadcrumbs()->setMinDepth(0); // don't skip the root page
Or maybe it's something else, but it's hard to say. I hope that helps, though!

This is probably a dirty solution, but I manually set the container reference using Zend_Registry like so:
Zend_Registry::set( 'nav' . $menu, $container );
And spit it out like so:
$main = Zend_Registry::get( 'nav' . $this->mainMenuId );
echo $this->navigation( $main )->breadcrumbs()->setMinDepth(0);

How to add condition for a field in the layout of SuiteCRM.?

In that in studio I have created some fields in one module and i also add those fields in Layout. but i want to display the fields according to the selection, for example: if user select option-1 from dropdown field then it has to display say only three field, and if user select option-2 from dropdown field then it has to display say six fields. so i need to add some condition in the layout field. but i can't find any option there.. please help me to find out.
i also attached the example image below.
If you are using sugar 7.6 I can help,
You want to change the fields according to drop down values if i am not wrong .
For that you have to right a code in "record.js" and "create-actions.js" files . just write a js function.
This is an example for crerate-action.js
({
extendsFrom: 'CreateActionsView',
initialize: function (options) {
this.model.on("change:dropdown", this.renderFields, this);
},
renderFields: function () {
// write your code here
},
})
You need to modify the view definitions to add a script into the edit view of your module.
Example:
$viewdefs ['<Module Name>'] =
array(
'<View Name>View' =>
array(
'templateMeta' =>
array(
...
'includes' =>
array(
0 =>
array(
'file' => 'path/to/your/script.js',
),
1 =>
array(
'file' => 'path/to/your/script.js',
),
),
...
),
...
),
...
);
You then can use jQuery or any javascript library to hide or show the fields. if you are using SuiteR or SuiteP theme you can simply add/remove the hidden class to the elements.
Just make sure that you add all the fields into your view which you wish to show or hide.
To make this upgrade save modify or create
custom/modules/module name/metadata/editviewdefs.php for the edit view
custom/modules/module name/metadata/detailviewdefs.php for the detail view
There are many defined ways in sugarcrm, as you have created new fields, all you need to add dependencies on those fields like
$dictionary['YOUR_MODULE_NAME']['fields']['YOUR_FIELD_NAME']['dependency']='(equal($YOUR_DROPDOWN,"OPTION_1"))
see
http://support.sugarcrm.com/Documentation/Sugar_Developer/Sugar_Developer_Guide_7.7/Architecture/Sugar_Logic/Dependency_Actions/SetVisibility/#Visibility_Dependencies_in_Field_Definitions
This can also be added through Studio.
Go to Studio > module > fields > YOUR_FIELD > Dependent and add dependency.

Symfony 2 Forms - add new item to Collection server-side, depending on button clicked

I have a form which contains a Collection of an unspecified number of subforms. I want to have functionality allowing the user to add a new, blank item to the Collection for them to fill in. The Symfony docs tell us how to do this using Javascript clientside to add new blank form controls, which are then submitted and persisted as normal, but I'd like to do it serverside in the controller, without Javascript.
The problem I'm encountering is to do with the way Symfony Forms work. I have an "Add" button added to my main form, and I intend to detect whether it is that button which has been clicked, so that I can add the blank item to the Collection and re-render the form. But to detect the click I need to call $this->createForm and at that point the form is fixed with the original set of items, it's too late to add an extra one.
//Symfony Action
//A Person has many Selections
$person = $this->getPerson($id)
//All fields are frozen at this point, according to data in $person!
$form = $this->createForm(new SelectionsType($lookups), $person);
$form->handleRequest($request);
//Ideally I'd somehow do this test earlier, but I need $form to do it...
if ($form->get('add')->isClicked() )
{
//TOO LATE!
$person->getSelections()->add(new Selection() );
}
if ($form->isValid())
{
if ($form->get('save')->isClicked() )
{
//Persist
}
}
//Render page etc
Things I've thought about:
Putting the Add button in a completely different form on the same page, which submits to a different Action which can then do some preparatory work before forwarding to the main Action above
Inspecting submitted HTTP data directly to note that Add has been clicked (shame not to use the standard Symfony method)
Give up and use Javascript as suggested (it might work in this example, but I'd like to have the option of carrying out server-side activity (without AJAX...) as part of adding the new blank item)
How can I best achieve this in a proper Symfony way?
EDIT Just seen this: https://github.com/symfony/symfony/issues/5231, which is essentially a feature request to allow what I'm after. One suggestion a commenter makes is to add a blank item to the Collection and then remove it if it's not needed - I don't know how one would do that, but it sounds promising.
ANOTHER EDIT It occurs to me that, because I need two different aspects of the $form I'm creating, I could maybe just make the $form, use it to handle the request, detect the button click, and then throw that $form away, before altering my model and creating another $form. I don't know if that would somehow fall foul of some rules about handling the submission twice.
I'm not 100% but I think you could do the following...
//Symfony Action with (Request $request, ...)
//A Person has many Selections
$person = $this->getPerson($id)
//All fields are frozen at this point, according to data in $person!
$form = $this->createForm(new SelectionsType($lookups), $person);
if ($request->isMethod('POST')) {
$form->submit($request);
if ($form->get('add')->isClicked()) {
// Add thing
} elseif ($form->isValid()) {
// or
// } elseif ($form->get('save')->isClicked() && $form->isValid()) {
// Persist and what not
}
}
//Render page etc
I haven't tested it so I don't know whether it will trigger the form errors (or if it will actually work) so if it does (or it doesn't) I apologise.
What I did in the end was have my Add button hit a separate Action, which then delegates to the main action with a flag to say "add a new Selection", as below:
public function selectionsAddAction(Request $request, $id)
{
return $this->selectionsAction($request, $id, true);
}
public function selectionsAction(Request $request, $id, $addNew = false)
{
$person = $this->getPerson($id);
//Also use "add mode" if we just deleted the last one!
if (!$person->getSelections()->count())
{
$addNew = true;
}
//$addNew is set by a separate action, hit by a different form with the Add button in
if ($addNew)
{
$person->getSelections()->add(new Selection() );
}
//We now have the right number of items, and can build the form!
$form = $this->createForm(new SelectionsType($lookups), $person);
//...
}

How to disable layout and view renderer in ZF2?

How can i disable layout and view renderer in Zend Framework 2.x? I read documentation and can't get any answers looking in google i found answer to Zend 1.x and it's
$this->_helper->viewRenderer->setNoRender(true);
$this->_helper->layout->disableLayout();
But it's not working any more in Zend Framework 2.x. I need to disable both view renderer and layout for Ajax requests.
Any help would be great.
Just use setTerminal(true) in your controller to disable layout.
This behaviour documented here: Zend View Quick Start :: Dealing With Layouts
Example:
<?php
namespace YourApp\Controller;
use Zend\View\Model\ViewModel;
class FooController extends AbstractActionController
{
public function fooAction()
{
$viewModel = new ViewModel();
$viewModel->setVariables(array('key' => 'value'))
->setTerminal(true);
return $viewModel;
}
}
If you want to send JSON response instead of rendering a .phtml file, try to use JsonRenderer:
Add this line to the top of the class:
use Zend\View\Model\JsonModel;
and here an action example which returns JSON:
public function jsonAction()
{
$data = ['Foo' => 'Bar', 'Baz' => 'Test'];
return new JsonModel($data);
}
EDIT:
Don't forget to add ViewJsonStrategy to your module.config.php file to allow controllers to return JSON. Thanks #Remi!
'view_manager' => [
'strategies' => [
'ViewJsonStrategy'
],
],
You can add this to the end of your action:
return $this->getResponse();
Slightly more info on the above answer... I use this often when outputting different types of files dynamically: json, xml, pdf, etc... This is the example of outputting an XML file.
// In the controller
$r = $this->getResponse();
$r->setContent(file_get_contents($filePath)); //
$r->getHeaders()->addHeaders(
array('Content-Type'=>'application/xml; charset=utf-8'));
return $r;
The view is not rendered, and only the specified content and headers are sent.

Zend Framework 2 Translating the text of the radio buttons

I´m developing an application using Zend Framework 2 and I need to translate the text of the radio buttons ("Show", "Hide") that I´ve created in my form:
//within the Form
public function addRadioButtons ()
{
$isPublicRadioButtons = new Element\Radio('isPublic');
$isPublicRadioButtons->setAttribute('id', 'isPublic')
->setAttribute('value', '0')
->setValueOptions(array(
'0' => 'Show',
'1' => 'Hide',
));
$this->add($isPublicRadioButtons);
}
What do I have to do in the view side to be able to translate them?
I know that to render translations to the views I need to use $this→translate() view helper. So within the view I´ll have to somehow call the text of the radio buttons..
//Whithin the view
echo $this->translate($someHowCallTheTextOfRadioButton('isPublic') , $textDomain, $locale);
Look at FormLabel section to read about translating labels in zend framework 2. I think that most important thing to remember is:
If you have a translator in the Service Manager under the key,
‘translator’, the view helper plugin manager will automatically attach
the translator to the FormLabel view helper. See
Zend\View\HelperPluginManager::injectTranslator() for more
information.
How to properly setup translator you have in ZendSkeletonApplication
In your view you can do something like this:
$this->formRadio()->setTranslatorTextDomain('textdomainhere');
You can have your form implement the TranslatorAwareInterface and, if you are using PHP 5.4+, have it use the TranslatorAwareTrait (otherwise you simply have to implement the interface yourself). You can now inject a translator instance into your form, e.g. in the form's factory. Then you can translate the labels as follows:
//within the Form
public function addRadioButtons ()
{
$isPublicRadioButtons = new Element\Radio('isPublic');
$isPublicRadioButtons->setAttribute('id', 'isPublic')
->setAttribute('value', '0')
->setValueOptions(array(
'0' => $this->getTranslator()->translate('Show'),
'1' => $this->getTranslator()->translate('Hide'),
));
$this->add($isPublicRadioButtons);
}

zend form elements display hidden field value

$emailmessage = new Zend_Form_Element_Hidden('emailmessage');
the hidden filed value, i.e 'emailmessage' retrieves the value of the same field name inside the database. However on loading the page, value of the 'emailmessage' cannot be seen, since the element is hidden.
Is there any way to display it without using any other form elements. I want it without using text, textarea, etc.
in controller you need to assign it to view and in the view you can echo it where ever you want:
controller
$form = new Your_Form();
$this->view->emailmessage = $emailmessage;
View
echo $this->escape($this->emailmessage);
You need to set formNote decorator for the element.
You do it by extending Hidden element or by setting decorator in the form.
Form
public function init()
{
// ...
$emailMessage = new Zend_Form_Element_Hidden();
$emailMessage->setDecorators(
array(
array('ViewHelper', array('helper' => 'formNote'))
)
);
$this->addElement($emailMessage, 'emailMessage');
// ...
}
