I am trying to use expand
option in my XML view but it's resulting no data.
Data are coming from backend as I can see in debugging under 'Network' option but there seems to be some binding issue in XML view.
Component.js
sap.ui.define([
"sap/ui/core/UIComponent",
"sap/ui/Device",
"sem/stock_app/model/models"
], function(UIComponent, Device, models) {
"use strict";
return UIComponent.extend("sem.stock_app.Component", {
metadata: {
manifest: "json"
},
/**
* The component is initialized by UI5 automatically during the startup of the app and calls the init method once.
* @public

*/
init: function() {
var url = "/sap/opu/odata/sap/ZMATLIST_SRV_02";
var odata = new sap.ui.model.odata.ODataModel(url, {
json: true
});
this.setModel(odata);
UIComponent.prototype.init.apply(this, arguments);
this.getRouter().initialize();
this.setModel(models.createDeviceModel(), "device");
}
});
});

TL;DR
Here I created a running example from your code: https://plnkr.co/edit/a2pcO6.
In the production code, remove all mock server references.
Issues to fix
Backend
According to your service metadata, the foreign key inside
matdetails
is also the only primary key at the same time. I.e. theMatid
s inmatdetails
cannot be unique if onematlist
is supposed be associated with multiplematdetails
entities.Frontend
Model
setModel
.this.setModel(odata, "odata")
<Text text="{Matid}"/>
"results"
which ODataModel cannot deal with. Same as this issue, the"response"
property needs to be there in each collection so that UI5 can display the items correctly. Not sure about the cause though as I don't have any expertise in backend. Having all entities uniquely identifiable might resolve this problem.UI
<App>
from your table view. An application should contain only one root element. If not, you might end up having this kind of problems.Since you want to display
matdetails
entities of selectedmatlist
entity in the table, binding items there with the absolute path/matlistSet
doesn't make sense. So, replace .... with just
items="{odata>NP_ON_MATID}"
. This binding is now relative. The propertyNP_ON_MATID
will be resolved once the selected context is given which is done in the controller..Controller
On
patternMatched
, the selectedMatid
value is given. So far so good but there are two anti-patterns in the following lines:?$expand
manually as it won't expand the entity. Pass the navigation property to theparameters/expand
ofbindElement
instead.Off-topic but if you want to navigate back: Remove
window
parameter fromonNavBack: function(window) { ... }
. Otherwise, thewindow
inwindow.history.go
is not the globalwindow
object but thepress
event from the back button.
