editablegridview extension to make rows of anCGridView editable

Requirements ¶

Yii 1.1 or above

Installation ¶

Extract both Classes to application/extensions/

CEditableGridView represents a grid view which contains editable rows and an optional 'Quickbar' which fires an action that quickly adds entries to the table.

When you assign an Column an relation-field (for example 'post.author') this Widget automatically renders an Drop-Down Field to choose between the available actions. To achieve this, the Relation-Widget is used (it is contained in the release) (since 0.2)

To make a Column editable you have to assign it to the class 'CEditableColumn'

Use it like the CGridView:

$this->widget('zii.widgets.grid.CEditableGridView', array(
     'dataProvider'=>$dataProvider,
     'showQuickBar'=>'true',
     'quickCreateAction'=>'QuickCreate', // will be actionQuickCreate()
     'columns'=>array(
           'title',          // display the 'title' attribute
            array('header' => 'editMe', 'name' => 'editable_row', 'class' => 'CEditableColumn')
     ));

With this Config, the column "editable_row" gets rendered with inputfields. The Table-header will be called "editMe".

You have to define a action that receives $_POST data like this:

public function actionQuickCreate() {
     $model=new Model;
      if(isset($_POST['Model']))
       {
        $model->attributes=$_POST['Model'];
        if($model->save())
        $this->redirect(array('admin')); //<-- assuming the Grid was used unter view admin/
       }
     }

Note: When using the newest "filter"-technique of Yii the automatic relation resolvment fails; so be sure to comment out the 'filter' => $model, generated by the yiic crud command.

Still todo ¶

make inputs writeable by JavaScript
make Drop-Down-List filterable by a criteria (will be in 0.3 soon)

Change Log ¶

January 26, 2010 ¶

The Widget now renders an automatic DropDownList when
an relation field (for example post.author) occurs

Usefull?

I wonder what the use of the editable fields are? They are not posted in the current implementation (v 0.2), only the QuickBar gets posted.

progress/news

unfortunately i do not have a project that needs a "updated" version of the CEditableGridView yet - altough i already have a lot of ideas on what could be made better.

For example, after -ing out of a column it could get green after a successfull ajax request that saved the column, yellow with a validation error message if it fails, and red if another error occurs. As soon as i need this funtionality in one of my projects i definitely will make it modular and release it under this extension.

If you want you could start something like that - any help is appreciated of course ;)

good to know that someone still looks at this extension even if it is >1 year old ;)

Saving the edited data?

I have seen a few comments on saving the edited data to the database, but don't see an answer. When I hit save on the main record, the value in the updated edited column of the grid does not save..

How do you save the data in the CEditableColumn?

_form

$this->widget('zii.widgets.grid.CEditableGridView', array(
 'dataProvider'=>$perfreviewsub->searchbyparent($model->performancereviewid),
 'showQuickBar'=>'true',
 'quickCreateAction'=>'QuickCreate', // will be actionQuickCreate()
 'columns'=>array(
       'standardname',
       'elementname',
       array('header' => 'ratingid', 'name' => 'ratingid', 'class' => 'CEditableColumn'),

 ))
);

Controller

public function actionQuickCreate() {
     $model=new PerfReviewSub;
      if(isset($_POST['PerfReviewSub']))
       {
        $model->attributes=$_POST['PerfReviewSub'];
        if($model->save())
        $this->redirect(array('update')); //<-- assuming the Grid was used unter view admin/
       }
     }

Reply to #3983

nadeem #3983 ran into the error: Alias "zii.widgets.grid.CEditableGridView" is invalid. This is a documentation problem. The documentation's example was:

$this->widget('zii.widgets.grid.CEditableGridView', array(
     'dataProvider'=>$dataProvider,
     'showQuickBar'=>'true',
     'quickCreateAction'=>'QuickCreate', // will be actionQuickCreate()
     'columns'=>array(
           'title',          // display the 'title' attribute
            array('header' => 'editMe', 'name' => 'editable_row', 'class' => 'CEditableColumn')
     ));

If you followed the installation instructions and put the class file in the extensions directory, the this should be:

$this->widget('ext.CEditableGridView', array(
     'dataProvider'=>$dataProvider,
     'showQuickBar'=>'true',
     'quickCreateAction'=>'QuickCreate', // will be actionQuickCreate()
     'columns'=>array(
           'title',          // display the 'title' attribute
            array('header' => 'editMe', 'name' => 'editable_row', 'class' => 'ext.CEditableColumn')
     ));

I instead created an editableGrid subdirectory (of the extensions directory) for the class files. This requires changing the example code to:

$this->widget('ext.editableGrid.CEditableGridView', array(
     'dataProvider'=>$dataProvider,
     'showQuickBar'=>'true',
     'quickCreateAction'=>'QuickCreate', // will be actionQuickCreate()
     'columns'=>array(
           'title',          // display the 'title' attribute
            array('header' => 'editMe', 'name' => 'editable_row', 'class' => 'ext.editableGrid.CEditableColumn')
     ));

Now I to need to figure out to get it to save the edited cell.

links are broken

Hi!

I'd like to try the demo, but it seems the links at the top :
> - Home page
> - Try out a demo
> - Join discussion
> - Report a bug

are broken...

Where can I see a demo?
(And maybe fix those links while you're here...)

Cheers!
