George Gevoian	3d3a5e334a	(core) Update Plugin API documentation ... Summary: Updates to Plugin API documentation. Test Plan: Tested manually in grist-help. Reviewers: jarek Reviewed By: jarek Subscribers: jarek Differential Revision: https://phab.getgrist.com/D3447	2 years ago
Paul Fitzpatrick	98f64a8461	(core) add grist.selectedTable.create/update/destroy/upsert to custom widget api ... Summary: This makes an equivalent of the /records REST endpoint available within custom widgets. For simple operations, it is compatible with https://github.com/airtable/airtable.js/. About half of the diff is refactoring code from DocApi that implements /records using applyUserActions, to make that code available in the plugin api. Test Plan: added tests Reviewers: alexmojaki Reviewed By: alexmojaki Differential Revision: https://phab.getgrist.com/D3320	3 years ago
Jarosław Sadziński	b80e56a4e1	(core) Custom Widget column mapping feature. ... Summary: Exposing new API in CustomSectionAPI for column mapping. The custom widget can call configure method (or use a ready method) with additional parameter "columns". This parameter is a list of column names that should be mapped by the user. Mapping configuration is exposed through an additional method in the CustomSectionAPI "mappings". It is also available through the onRecord(s) event. This DIFF is connected with PR for grist-widgets repository https://github.com/gristlabs/grist-widget/pull/15 Design document and discussion: https://grist.quip.com/Y2waA8h8Zuzu/Custom-Widget-field-mapping Test Plan: browser tests Reviewers: paulfitz Reviewed By: paulfitz Differential Revision: https://phab.getgrist.com/D3241	3 years ago
Alex Hall	ecb30eebb8	(core) Parsing multiple values in reflists, parsing refs without table data in client ... Summary: Added a new object type code `l` (for lookup) which can be used in user actions as a temporary cell value in ref[list] columns and is immediately converted to a row ID in the data engine. The value contains the original raw string (to be used as alt text), the column ID to lookup (typically the visible column) and one or more values to lookup. For reflists, valueParser now tries parsing the string first as JSON, then as a CSV row, and applies the visible column parsed to each item. Both ref and reflists columns no longer format the parsed value when there's no matching reference, the original unparsed string is used as alttext instead. Test Plan: Added another table "Multi-References" to CopyPaste test. Made that table and the References table test with and without table data loaded in the browser.

Alex Hall	a64fb105e3	(core) Use GristObjCode in CellValue ... Summary: Makes type checking a bit stronger Test Plan: it just has to compile Reviewers: jarek Reviewed By: jarek Differential Revision: https://phab.getgrist.com/D3065	3 years ago
Dmitry S	7a8debae16	(core) Improve object serialization, to help get RECORD data to Custom Widgets. ... Summary: - Change RECORD's dates_as_str default to False. - Reimplement objtype encode_object/decode_object with less machinery. - Implement encoding of dicts (with string keys). - Make lists and dicts encode values recursively. - Implement encoding/decoding in the client - Decode automatically in plugins' fetchSelectedTable/Record, with an option to skip. Test Plan: Tested manually, not sure what tests may be affected yet. Reviewers: paulfitz Reviewed By: paulfitz Differential Revision: https://phab.getgrist.com/D2593	4 years ago
Paul Fitzpatrick	ac5452c89f	(core) add grist.onRecord and grist.onRecords event handlers ... Summary: This simplifies writing custom widgets that access selected data. To access the record at which the cursor is set, and get any future changes to it as the cursor moves or data changes, it suffices now to do: ``` grist.ready(); grist.onRecord(record => /* render */); ``` Similarly to access the set of selected records, and get any changes, it suffices now to do: ``` grist.ready(); grist.onRecords(records => /* render */); ``` The `records` argument will be a list of objects, each of which is a single record. This is distinct from the column-based representation favored in Grist up ontil now. That remains how methods like `fetchTable` or `fetchSelectedTable` represent their results. In the future, methods named like `fetchRecords` or `fetchSelectedRecords` could be added that return lists.
