I have a view with some data, and a column with the creation date of each document.
I want to make a search feature with 3 input fields:
Name, StartDate, EndDate.
The result of the search should be all the documents with the same name and within the 2 dates.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks
Use the search
property of DominoView data source. It does a full text search on all documents in view. Create a search string like
[Name]="Meier" AND [_creationDate]>=12-01-2013 AND [_creationDate]<=30-08-2014
Your data source code would look like this:
<xp:this.data>
<xp:dominoView
var="view1"
viewName="YourView">
<xp:this.search><![CDATA[#{javascript:
var search = "";
var formatter = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat("dd-MM-yyyy");
if (viewScope.Name) {
search += ' AND [Name]="' + viewScope.Name + '*"';
}
if (viewScope.StartDate) {
search += ' AND [_creationDate]>=' + formatter.format(viewScope.StartDate);
}
if (viewScope.EndDate) {
search += ' AND [_creationDate]<=' + formatter.format(viewScope.EndDate);
}
return search.substring(5);}]]></xp:this.search>
</xp:dominoView>
</xp:this.data>
This code assumes that there are editable search fields which value is bound to viewScope.Name
, viewScope.StartDate
and viewScope.EndDate
e.g.
<xp:inputText
id="inputText1"
value="#{viewScope.Name}">
</xp:inputText>
<xp:inputText
id="inputText2"
value="#{viewScope.StartDate}">
<xp:this.converter>
<xp:convertDateTime
type="date"
dateStyle="short">
</xp:convertDateTime>
</xp:this.converter>
<xp:dateTimeHelper></xp:dateTimeHelper>
</xp:inputText>
