livewire view don't send any xhr request to component - xmlhttprequest

I have a select html tag in livewire view:
<select wire:model="categoryId" wire:change="$emit('attr_cat', $event.target.value)" name="category_id" class="form-control">
<option value="0">Select category</option>
#foreach($categories as $category)
<option value="{{$category->id}}">{{ $category->name }}</option>
#if(count($category->childs))
#include('admin.categories.subcategorylist',['childs' => $category->childs])
#endif
#endforeach
</select>
and a livewire component with following code:
namespace App\Http\Livewire\Admin;
use App\Models\Attribute;
use App\Models\Category;
use App\Models\CategoryAttribute;
use Barryvdh\Debugbar\Facade as Debugbar;
use Livewire\Component;
class CategoryAttributes extends Component
{
public $attributeId;
public $categoryId;
public $attributeCategories;
public $categories;
protected $listeners = ['attr_cat' => 'addAttributeToCategory'];
public function mount()
{
$this->attributeCategories = Attribute::find($this->attributeId)->categories()->get();
$this->categories = Category::whereNull('category_id')->orderBy('name')->with('childs')->get();
$this->categoryId = 0;
}
public function render()
{
return view('livewire.admin.category-attributes');
// return view('livewire.admin.cat-attr-test');
}
public function addAttributeToCategory($value){
Debugbar::addMessage($value);
CategoryAttribute::create([
'category_id' => $this->categoryId,
'attribute_id' => $this->attributeId,
]);
}
public function updatedCategoryId(){
Debugbar::addMessage($this->attributeId);
}
}
and mount livewire component with this line in my blade view:
#livewire('admin.category-attributes', ['attributeId' => $attribute->id], key('attr-'.$attribute->id))
but, when I change selected item, nothing happens and no xhr requests are sent to the server by the browser.
Let me say this too, I have inserted #livewireStyles and #livewireScripts in master blade file and they are loaded correctly.
Thank you for your help.

I found the solution to my problem. I had to put all the contents of the view in a standalone tag so that livewire could assign an ID to it. Otherwise, livewire will refuse to send any request to the server.

Could not set or bind model property with Bootstrap Datepicker in Blazor

I am using bootstrap datepicker and the problem is that when I pick a date, it does not fire a change or input event and noting is binding with the model property Course.StartDate or Course.EndDate.
The default datepicker works but does not support Afghanistan datetime. That is why I use boostrap datepicker.
Blazor code:
#using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.Rendering
#using myproject.Data
#using Microsoft.JSInterop;
#inject myproject.Repository.CoursesRepository _coursesRepository
#inject IJSRuntime JS
<EditForm Model="#Course" OnValidSubmit="e=> { if(selectedId == 0) { addCourse(); } else { updateCourse(Course.CourseId); } }">
<div class="mb-2">
<div>#Course.StartDate</div>
<label class="col-form-label" for="StartDate">#Loc["Start Date"]<span class="text-danger fs--1">*</span>:</label>
<InputDate class="form-control" #bind-Value="Course.StartDate" #bind-Value:format="yyyy-MM-dd" id="StartDate" />
<ValidationMessage class="text-danger" For="(() => Course.StartDate)"/>
</div>
<div class="mb-2">
<label class="col-form-label" for="EndDate">#Loc["End Date"]<span class="text-danger fs--1">*</span>:</label>
<InputDate class="form-control" #bind-Value="Course.EndDate" #bind-Value:format="yyyy-MM-dd" id="EndDate"/>
<ValidationMessage class="text-danger" For="(() => Course.EndDate)"/>
</div>
</EditForm>
#code {
public CourseModel Course = new();
public string[] dates = new string[] { "#StartDate", "#EndDate" };
protected override void OnAfterRender(bool firstRender)
{
base.OnAfterRender(firstRender);
loadScripts();
}
void addCourse()
{
_coursesRepository.AddCourse(Course);
FillData();
Course = new();
var title = "Course";
Swal.Success(title : Loc[$"{title} added successfully"],toast : true);
}
// initializes the datepicker
public async Task loadScripts()
{
await JS.InvokeVoidAsync("initializeDatepicker", (object) dates);
}
}
This is script for initializing the datepickers
<script>
function initializeDatepicker(dates) {
dates.forEach((element) => {
$(element).datepicker({
onSelect: function(dateText) {
// this is not working
element.value = this.value;
/*
tried this and still not working
$(element).trigger("change");
also tried this and still not working
$(element).change();
*/
// this is working
console.log("Selected date: " + dateText + "; input's current value: " + this.value);
},
dateFormat: 'yy-mm-dd',
changeMonth: true,
changeYear: true
});
});
}
</script>
The reason for this is that the changes are made with JavaScript and so the page state does not change for Blazor, in other words, Blazor does not notice the value change at all.
To solve this problem, you must inform the Blazor component of the changes by calling a C# method inside the JavaScript function. For this, you can use the DotNet.invokeMethodAsync built-in dotnet method. As follows:
DotNet.invokeMethodAsync('ProjectAssemblyName', 'ComponentMethod', this.value.toString())
Its first argument is the assembly name of your project. The second argument is the name of the C# function that you will write in the component, and finally, the third argument is the selected date value.
The method called in C# should be as follows:
static string selectedDate;
[JSInvokable]
public static void ComponentMethod(string pdate)
{
selectedDate = pdate;
}
This method must be decorated with [JSInvokable] and must be static.
I have done the same thing for another javascript calendar in Persian language. Its codes are available in the JavaScriptPersianDatePickerBlazor repository.
You can also create a custom calendar in the form of a component so that you can use it more easily in all components in any formats that you want such as DateTime or DateTimeOffset or string and so on. There is an example of this in the AmibDatePickerBlazorComponent repository.

Spinner does not show b/c the bound variable is not updated

I'm working on a Blazor server side app. The page has a table with a list of cars and some filter elements on top. When I select a filter, a spinner should be visible until the new data is fetched and rendered.
The spinner with its variable:
<div class="spinner-border #spinner" role="status">
<span class="visually-hidden">Loading...</span>
</div>
#code{
string spinner = "invisible";
public string vehicleTypeFilter
{
set
{
_vehicleTypeFilter = value;
ApplyFilters();
}
get { return _vehicleTypeFilter; }
}
}
The select for the Baumuster (vehicleType) is bound to the vehicleTypeFilter variable:
<div class="col-md-2 form-floating">
<select class="form-control" #bind="vehicleTypeFilter">
<option value="" selected>Alle</option>
#foreach (var vehicleType in vehicleTypes.OrderBy(x => x.Description))
{
<option value="#vehicleType.Description">#vehicleType.Description</option>
}
</select>
<label>Baumuster</label>
</div>
Then a value is selected, the ApplyFilter method is triggered through the setter of the vehicleTypeFilter variable:
public void ApplyFilters()
{
ToggleSpinner();
// I also tried a StateHasChanged(); right here
// 1. Get all cars
cars = model.CreateIndexViewModel();
// 2. Filter for Baumuster / vehicle type
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(vehicleTypeFilter))
{
cars.viewModels = cars.viewModels.Where(x => x.VehicleDescription == vehicleTypeFilter).ToList();
}
ToggleSpinner();
}
The ToggleSpinner method:
public void ToggleSpinner()
{
if (spinner == "invisible" )
spinner = "";
else
spinner = "invisible";
}
Unfortunately, I don't see the spinner. When I inspect the html page right after the breakpoint hits the Baumuster-filter, the value of spinner is still set to "invisible". I even tried to call StateHasChanged(); after the first ToggleSpinner() but that didn't help.
You've shown a lot of code, but I don't see ToggleSpinner
However, you call it twice in your ApplyFilters method, with no blocking calls, so I'd assume that it's turning the spinner on and off so fast that it doesn't render (or at least that you can't notice it).
If the methods you call in ApplyFilters actually take any time, then Henk's got the right idea-- except you should use async Task I think.
Your problem is that you want async behaviour from a synchronous property. The standard advice is against async void but if you want to stay with the property, the minimal change would be:
public async void ApplyFilters()
{
ToggleSpinner();
// I also tried a StateHasChanged(); right here
StateHasChanged(); // this _requests_ an update
await Task.Delay(1); // this is why you need async void
... as before
ToggleSpinner();
StateHasChanged();
}

First option in Blazor InputSelect displayed but value is null

I have encountered a weird behavior of InputSelect element in Razor component.
On my input form, I have several fields bound with the model (Partner). Some of these fields I placed in form of dropdown selection. Because the bound field's (PartnerCategory) value is the id (integer) I fetch a lookup table from DB with a name corresponding to a selected id.
On a page, I can see all names in the dropdown list. But when I try to insert a record from the form to the database it throws an SQL exception, because InputSelect treats the first value in the list as NULL. Just to be clear - there is no blank value in the dropdown list, and all names are shown. It just takes it's value as NULL. Followingly because the data type is an integer and it converts NULL to zero. And because I don't have an id that is zero in my table, the Insert command fails.
Below is my simplified code
<EditForm Model="#partner">
<InputSelect #bind-Value="partner.PartnerCategoryId">
#if (categoryList != null)
{
#foreach (var item in categoryList.OrderBy(x => x.PartnerCategoryId))
{
<option value="#item.PartnerCategoryId">#item.Name</option>
}
}
</InputSelect>
</EditForm>
#code {
Partner partner = new Partner();
private IEnumerable<PartnerCategory> categoryList;
protected override async Task OnInitializedAsync()
{
categoryList = await CategoryService.GetAllAsync();
}
}
How can I handle this? Does it bind values to a model before it fetches data from DB?
To solve this issue you can add <option value="">Select...</option> in your code like this:
<InputSelect #bind-Value="partner.PartnerCategoryId">
#if (categoryList != null)
{
<option value="">Select...</option>
#foreach (var item in categoryList.OrderBy(x => x.PartnerCategoryId))
{
<option value="#item.PartnerCategoryId">#item.Name</option>
}
}
</InputSelect>
And in your PartnerCategory model define the PartnerCategoryId as required. Note that the type of PartnerCategoryId is nullable: int?
[Required]
public int? PartnerCategoryId {get; set;}
This will prevent the 'submission' of your form unless the user has selected a value
To test the new changes:
Add the OnValidSubmit attribute to your EditForm component and set its value to "HandleValidSubmit"
Add a HandleValidSubmit method, like this:
private void HandleValidSubmit()
{
// Put code here to save your record in the database
}
Add a submit button at the bottom of your EditForm:
<p><button type="submit">Submit</button></p>
Run your app, and hit the "Submit" button...As you can see the form is not "submitted", and the select element's borders are painted red.
Here's a complete version of your code:
<EditForm Model="#partner" OnValidSubmit="HandleValidSubmit">
<InputSelect #bind-Value="partner.PartnerCategoryId">
#if (categoryList != null)
{
<option value="">Select...</option>
#foreach (var item in categoryList.OrderBy(x => x.PartnerCategoryId))
{
<option value="#item.PartnerCategoryId">#item.Name</option>
}
}
</InputSelect>
<p><button type="submit">Submit</button></p>
</EditForm>
#code {
Partner partner = new Partner();
private IEnumerable<PartnerCategory> categoryList;
protected override async Task OnInitializedAsync()
{
categoryList = await CategoryService.GetAllAsync();
}
private void HandleValidSubmit()
{
Console.WriteLine("Submitted");
}
}
In case someone is facing the same issue, here is my code which solved the issue:
<div class="mb-3 form-check">
<label for="category" class="form-label">Select category</label>
<InputSelect TValue="int" #bind-Value="subcategory.CategoryId" class="form-control" id="category">
<option value="">Select...</option>
#foreach(var cate in categories)
{
<option value="#cate.CategoryId">#cate.CategoryName</option>
}
</InputSelect>
<ValidationMessage For="#(()=>subcategory.CategoryId)"/>
</div>

How to export PDF from back-end edit/update view using DynamicPDF plugin in OctoberCMS

I am going to use DynamicPDF plugin to export to pdf some fields from backend on update/edit view of my plugin in OctoberCMS, can someone help me?
on plugin controller i have this call:
<?php namespace Vimagem\Pacientes\Controllers;
use Backend\Classes\Controller;
use BackendMenu;
use Renatio\DynamicPDF\Classes\PDF;
use Renatio\DynamicPDF\Classes\PDFWrapper;
class Pacientes extends Controller
{
public $implement = [ 'Backend\Behaviors\ListController', 'Backend\Behaviors\FormController', 'Backend\Behaviors\ReorderController' ];
public $listConfig = 'config_list.yaml';
public $formConfig = 'config_form.yaml';
public $reorderConfig = 'config_reorder.yaml';
public function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
BackendMenu::setContext('Vimagem.Pacientes', 'main-menu-item');
}
/** PDF **/
public function pdf($id)
{
return PDF::loadTemplate('export-data-pdf')->stream('download.pdf');
}
}
On the PDF Template (export-data-pdf) i need to call some form fields from one client:
{{ name }}
{{ address }}
{{ phone }}
etc...
but i can´t get the fields show up, what its wrong ?
Thank you,
Vitor
This code was found in the plugins documents.
use Renatio\DynamicPDF\Classes\PDF; // import facade
...
public function pdf()
{
$templateCode = 'renatio::invoice'; // unique code of the template
$data = ['name' => 'John Doe']; // optional data used in template
return PDF::loadTemplate($templateCode, $data)->stream('download.pdf');
}
I have used this plugin and it works well. You need to pass in data to the PDF stream.
This is done, worked around a solution for this.
Here is the controller application:
<?php namespace Vimagem\Pacientes\Controllers;
use Backend\Classes\Controller;
use BackendMenu;
use Renatio\DynamicPDF\Classes\PDFWrapper;
use Vimagem\Pacientes\Models\Paciente;
use \October\Rain\Database\Traits\Validation;
use Str;
class Pacientes extends Controller
{
public $implement = [ 'Backend\Behaviors\ListController', 'Backend\Behaviors\FormController', 'Backend\Behaviors\ReorderController' ];
public $listConfig = 'config_list.yaml';
public $formConfig = 'config_form.yaml';
public $reorderConfig = 'config_reorder.yaml';
public function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
BackendMenu::setContext('Vimagem.Pacientes', 'main-menu-item');
}
/**** PDF Export ***/
public function pdf($id)
{
$paciente = Paciente::find($id);
if ($paciente === null) {
throw new ApplicationException('User not found.');
}
$filename = Str::slug($paciente->nome) . '.pdf';
try {
/** #var PDFWrapper $pdf */
$pdf = app('dynamicpdf');
$options = [
'logOutputFile' => storage_path('temp/log.htm'),
];
return $pdf
->loadTemplate('export-data-pdf', compact('paciente'))
->setOptions($options)
->stream($filename);
} catch (Exception $e) {
throw new ApplicationException($e->getMessage());
}
}
}
Now i can use partials on the template like this:
<p>{{ paciente.nome }}</p>
<p>{{ paciente.morada }}</p>
etc...
Thank you all that try to helped me.

Aurelia compose bind.two-way not working

I am trying to render my aurelia view dynamically, using compose within repeater and it is working fine but my two way binding not working. The view that is getting rendered using compose element doesn't update the property of parent view model.
my code for parent view js file is
export class Index {
public _items: interfaces.IBaseEntity[];
public data: string;
constructor() {
this._items = new Array<interfaces.IBaseEntity>();
this._items.push(new Address());
this._items.push(new HomeAddress());
}
activate() {
this._items.forEach((entity, index, arr) => {
entity.init();
});
//this.data = "data";
}
}
my parent html is as below. In this html i got custom element on which my two binding works but not with compose
<template>
<require from="form/my-element"></require>
<div repeat.for="item of _items">
<!--<my-element type.two-way="data" model.two-way="item.model"></my-element>-->
<compose view-model="${item.view}" model.two-way="item.model"></compose>
</div>
</template>
My child view model
import * as interfaces from '../interfaces';
import {useView, bindable} from 'aurelia-framework';
export class Address implements interfaces.IBaseEntity {
public view: string = "form/address";
#bindable model: string;
constructor() {
console.log("address constructed - " + this.model);
}
init = (): void => {
this.model = "Address";
}
activate(bindingContext) {
this.model = bindingContext;
console.log("address ativated - " + this.model);
}
}
and child view html is
<template>
<h2>Address Template</h2>
<input type="text" value.two-way="model" class="form-control" />
</template>
I know the issue now. I am passing simple property into my compose which doesn't gonna work. It has to be an object
