[Ideas] Text string manipulation

$
0
0
Expression editor, Build-in Functions, Text

Left(t,length)
right(t,length)

in my opinion, this could be very helpfull in text string manipulation.

It's my first Idea, and I'm not sure it's allready posted or relevant.

[Ideas] [Service Center] Send Test Email

Service Center should have a button in "Administration > Email" to send a test email so we can check if the configurations are all ok, and the platform can communicate/authenticate with the email server.

[Ideas] [Expose REST] Implement assistance feature to comply with jsonapi.org specification

When a outsystems rest is exposed, help assist developers to expose REST web services that comply with jsonapi.org specification.

http://jsonapi.org/

(Assist, not force every company wants to comply with jsonapi specifications)

[Ideas] Advanced Query: Mismatch between number of columns instead of warning make it an error.

$
0
0

Hi Guys,


When using a structure as an output of the Advanced Query, if the developer added a new attribute to the structure right away the Advance Query or the Service Studio will show an error instead of a warning.



With this, it will prevent future bugs, especially in a large application.


Sometimes small things like this developers tend to forget to check. =D




[Ideas] CodeEditor/web viewer to help the implementation of external (html,css and js) code

$
0
0

the service studio already have an editor that recognizes the changes of the code, for example when changing the color for a web block, he will change immediately. that doesn't happen when you import external code. for example, if you take an graph with all the three components(html, css, and js) you will not be able to see the result on the service studio. If you are like me, you will spend plenty of time just trying to implement this code working on the service studio.


possible Solution: Implementation of an web block that can run the code(as a code editor). there are many sites where you can write, compile and see the result on the same website.


would be great to have this just to see if the code just runs correctly without the need of deploy.

[Ideas] Ability to disable auto-reference on copy/paste

$
0
0
Sometimes when doing a major refactoring, I would like the ability to disable the automatic referencing of needing items on copy/paste. The reason is that we may also be bringing those dependencies into the other eSpace as well, and it is easier to find what needs to come over if there is an error than trying to figure out what was copied over.

[Ideas] "Prompt" property for the Password widget

Right now, the only way to use a "Prompt" on a Password widget is the deprecated Input_SetPassword from RichWidgets, "Password" should have "Prompt".

[Ideas] App Documentation Rating in the Forge

$
0
0

Can an additional rating 5 star rating measure be incorporated into the Forge for the quality of the app documentation?

The forge has many many many great apps, but I find I often spend a lot of time figuring out how to use them because the documentation is extremely lacking.

A number of the apps load with samples, but even then not all of the properties are used or documented clearly or documented at all.  The forum is handy for asking questions, but now I am interrupting others.

[Ideas] Master Page Template

$
0
0
I would really like to see something similar to ASP.NET Master Pages, where I can have a screen that other pages derive from, and when that master screen changes, so do the child pages. It is too easy to just use a 1 column table for page design because it is easy to use, but it really is the wrong way of doing things.

[Ideas] Make roles weak dependencies

$
0
0

In a large application portfolio, it is nice to have a seperate module with all roles.

However adding a public role to it causes a lot of consumer modules to be outdated for no reason, if they do not need the new role. If a consumer module needs the new role it is oke to have it outdated, as it will be published with a new dependency to the new role.

Making roles two have weak dependencies would solve the problem of having many outdated modules.

[Ideas] Role Authorisation for REST API methods

$
0
0

In OutSystems we use REST API Authentication.

But for role based authorisation we need to put logic in a REST  API method to avoid unautohorised access of the method.

If  we could select which User Roles are authorised to call a REST API method, like we can for a Screen, this would eliminate adding autorisation logic manually.

[Ideas] Platform mechanism to prevent button double-clicking

It's always a problem when users click on buttons more than once, duplicating server requests.

There are solutions for both client and server-side.

[Ideas] [Community Forums] Change Top Posters for Top Solvers

$
0
0

As you might know, there is a leaderboard for top posters which aims to "recognize" the people that devote their time to helping others. 

Unfortunately, this has a massive side effect: more often than not, people just post for the sake of getting higher in the ranks of the leaderboard, without any concern for helping the person in need. As the saying goes "quantity doesn't mean quality".

As such, I would like to suggest that instead of having the list of Top Posters, we would have a list of Top Solvers, which would highlight the users who had the bigger number of posts marked as solution.

Hopefully this will increase the overall quality of the answers around the forums.

[Ideas] Only actions that are functions can be used in other functions: why?

$
0
0

Why can't a client action marked as a function in a mobile app use other client actions that are not marked as functions?

I get the error "Invalid Client Function" error in Service Studio with the explanation "(...) Only actions that are functions can be used in other functions" once I use a client action that is not a function within the flow of another client action marked as a function.

I don't see a reason for not being able to do so. It would be nice to get rid of this constraint ;)

[Ideas] Jump to the top of a webpage when showing a Feedback message if scrolled down.

$
0
0

Currently if you are scrolled right down a long webpage and a Feedback message is displayed, the user has no way of knowing this because the message can only be seen when the page is scrolled up to the top.

To me this behaviour is bug because there is no way to send a message to the user and ensure that they see it.

[Ideas] More String Built in Functions Needed

$
0

I had to recently strip off the first character of a string.  Doesn't sound too difficult but here it is...
 
What I did was use the familiar Substring command and had to find the Start of the text I wanted to keep using the Index command. Next figure out the Length of the string using the Length command and then subtract the Index of the Start of the Text I wanted to keep using the Index command again. There I had it.
 
But could there be possibly an easier way.
 
What if a Left or Right command existed that would work like this:
 
Left(string,Index) this might be able to give you back the left part of the string up to the index
and
Right(string,Index) this might be able to give you back the right part of the string starting at the index.

Mabe even a Mid command
Mid(string,left Index, right Index) this might be able to give you back the center part of the string
 
Now you would only need to figure out the index and provide the string.
 
Maybe not a priority but would make things less messy

[Ideas] Automate Service Module Creation

$

0

Frequently its necessary to create rules for getting, creating, updating or deleting records so it would be nice to simplify this process. Maybe an option could be to automate services module creation, just like the Customers module in CRM Services. I think this should be done right clicking an Entity and selecting an option like "Create Service Module".

[Ideas] Form disabling

Allow us to disable all the input widgets inside a form from a single form variable.
