Ryan Sytsma (In thread: AppBuilder custom functions)

So would this be a legal way of getting a return value from an AB JS function?

StartJS
window.App.RootScope.rowCount = window.GetCountChangeTrackingRows();
EndJS

Ryan Sytsma (In thread: AppBuilder custom functions)

Here is an example of what I am doing:

StartJS
//call JS function to get row count in sqlite table
window.App.RootScope.rowCount = window.GetCountChangeTrackingRows
EndJS

//use return value to see if modified records exist
If "[rowCount]" "==" "0"
   //we can do a database refresh and load http arrays into sqlite tables

ElseIf "[rowCount]" ">" "0"
       MessageBox "Database" "There are modified records so the database needs to sync. Would you like to sync right now?" "Yes|No" "warning" ""
       //if yes...loop the modified records and upload to web api
EndIf

As you can see, I am assuming I can set a variable in the StartJS/EndJS.
Would I do the same thing with passing arguements in JS? Does the "window.App.RootScope.SomeVariable" allow me to pass AB vars into a JS function? Ryan

Ryan Sytsma (In thread: AppBuilder custom functions)

I wrote some custom Javascript functions in the AB functions area.

How can I call this function and assign the return value to a variable? If it is JS does it need to wrapped in the StartJS/EndJS tags?

Ryan Sytsma (In thread: include a sqlite database file)

When I create a Cordova build, how can I include a sqlite file? I have added the sqlite file to the app files manager and it sets the path to the file automatically. Can the database file reside there or does it have to be a different location? If I do something like this in JS

  var db = window.sqlitePlugin.openDatabase({
  name: 'pts.db3',
  location: 'default',
  androidDatabaseProvider: 'system'
  });

I am not sure what location:'default' is in relation to where AB want to put included files. Ryan

Ryan Sytsma (In thread: Javascript objects)

Thank you. That helps.

Ryan Sytsma (In thread: Javascript objects)

Right, but what if the JS code between the StartJS and the EndJS actions performs something that returns a value from an external JS file or similar, can I set that returned JS variable to an AB variable?

Ryan Sytsma (In thread: Javascript objects)

Yes, I looked at that. But, what about accessing JS objects from AB controls and actions?

Ryan Sytsma (In thread: Javascript objects)

If I create Javascript in between the StartJS / EndJS actions -or- include an external JS file, are the objects visible in scope just by using

window.App.Scope....
or
window.App.RootScope....

? How would I access the custom JS objects in AB actions and embedded JS? Thank you.

Thanks for your help David.

Thank you David!

Ryan Sytsma (In thread: Install the Cordova Network plugin)

Where do I find the Network plugin for Cordova?

Ryan Sytsma (In thread: SQLite plugin and offline database use)

So, here is my use case for my app.

I am writing an application for a company in British Columbia Canada that contracts with the electrical utility. I created a web application that takes in the contract given to my client, and parses it out into individual tasks. They will have the tasks accesible by the Android device. Some of the work they do takes them into very remote areas of British Columbia and so I need to be able to download records to take offline.

I have already written a web api in C# and I am retrieving records into AB fine.

One contract will have about 500 related tasks and between 5,000 and 9,000 task detail rows.

I have seen some people here using Pouch DB and I am curious of anyones experience in offline data.

Ryan Sytsma (In thread: Installing a Cordova plugin)

I am trying to install this plugin: https://www.npmjs.com/package/cordova-sqlite-storage but, I don't understand what needs to installed or downloaded. Can you be of assistance or maybe someone who has added plugins to AB? Ryan

Deleting the compile folder did not help. I sent you an email with my project attached.
