| [11:25:53] | <ZaneBelkhayat[m]> | Hi all, I'm new to farmOS and working on the same project as Marcos Carballal, could anyone point me to documentation on 'createAsset' as a part of Quick Forms? |
| [11:27:34] | <mstenta[m]> | Hi Zane Belkhayat - this might help: https://farmos.org/development/module/quick/ |
| [11:28:03] | <mstenta[m]> | Specifically the "Traits and helper methods" section |
| [11:28:31] | <mstenta[m]> | Note that these are just wrappers around Drupal core Entity API methods - so you may be able to get more detailed docs for those.... |
| [11:28:47] | <mstenta[m]> | https://www.drupal.org/docs/drupal-apis/entity-api/working-with-the-enti... |
| [11:29:03] | <mstenta[m]> | We just provide helpers to make common things easier within quick forms |
| [11:29:27] | <mstenta[m]> | But you can also work with the Entity API directly for full power :-) |
| [11:30:11] | <mstenta[m]> | Here are the traits that farmOS core provides, if you want to see what they are doing specifically: https://github.com/farmOS/farmOS/tree/2.x/modules/core/quick/src/Traits |
| [11:30:40] | <mstenta[m]> | eg, the `createAsset()` code specifically: https://github.com/farmOS/farmOS/blob/7014bdf9530ac59f2ff1fc7daef234a51b... |
| [11:31:51] | <ZaneBelkhayat[m]> | Ahhh, thank you this is the info I was looking for! |
| [11:31:57] | <mstenta[m]> | it's pretty simple... it basically just passes `$values` directly into `Asset::create()` - but it also trims the title to 255 chars, links the asset to the quick form that created it automatically, and displays a message to the user with a link to the new asset |
| [11:32:14] | <mstenta[m]> | so if you don't want any of those things, you can bypass `createAsset()` and roll your own |
| [11:45:33] | <ZaneBelkhayat[m]> | Another quick question, what permissions are needed for creating an asset? |
| [11:46:23] | <mstenta[m]> | Each asset type will have a permission `create [type] asset` |
| [11:46:42] | <mstenta[m]> | eg: `create plant asset` |
| [11:53:09] | <mstenta[m]> | FYI @room the farmOS weekly dev call starts in ~8 minutes here: https://meet.jit.si/farmos-dev |
| [11:53:27] | <mstenta[m]> | All are welcome! |
| [11:56:35] | <mstenta[m]> | Zane Belkhayat: if you want to hop in and ask any questions about quick forms etc feel free! or just to listen in... |
| [11:56:44] | <mstenta[m]> | Marcos Carballal too :-) |
| [11:57:46] | <MarcosCarballal[> | Sure, happy to join |
| [12:07:38] | <symbioquine[m]> | I think I'm going to miss the call today... 🥺 |
| [13:00:31] | <mstenta[m]> | @room farmOS 2.0.0-beta3 has been released! 🎉 https://github.com/mstenta/farmOS/releases/tag/2.0.0-beta3 |
| [15:53:01] | <ZaneBelkhayat[m]> | So I've been wracking my brain about this all day and can't seem to figure out how to record a field through quick forms |
| [15:59:09] | <mstenta[m]> | Hi Zane Belkhayat what are you trying to do? |
| [16:08:44] | <ZaneBelkhayat[m]> | I'm trying to record a simple text field, in the asset created by a quick form, but even though the field shows up on the form, it doesn't get recorded to the created asset |
| [16:09:31] | <mstenta[m]> | can you share your submit method code? |
| [16:09:55] | <mstenta[m]> | is it a custom field you've added to the asset type? or one of the ones that comes with farmOS? |
| [16:10:25] | <ZaneBelkhayat[m]> | Custom field |
| [16:11:25] | <mstenta[m]> | are you using `createAsset()`? can you share that chunk of code so i can see it? |
| [16:12:00] | <ZaneBelkhayat[m]> | $this->createAsset([ |
| [16:12:01] | <ZaneBelkhayat[m]> | 'name' => $name, |
| [16:12:01] | <ZaneBelkhayat[m]> | 'type' => 'producer' |
| [16:12:01] | <ZaneBelkhayat[m]> | ]); |
| [16:12:43] | <ZaneBelkhayat[m]> | Oh shoot hold on haha I edited that recently let me get back to you |
| [16:12:54] | <mstenta[m]> | if it's a simple single-value text field that you've added, you should be able to just do:... (full message at https://libera.ems.host/_matrix/media/r0/download/libera.chat/b432bfb32b...) |
| [16:13:27] | <mstenta[m]> | (that assumes that the custom field you've added to the asset is called `myfield`, and the field in your quick form is called `form_field_name`) |
| [16:14:34] | <ZaneBelkhayat[m]> | Yeah I got it working immediately, thank you! |
| [16:14:46] | <mstenta[m]> | Great! |
