[Forums] Import Excel file and Update my Table Records

Hi Miguel,

Depends exactly on what you want to do... I will explain the three typical scenarios, although yours seems to be the last one: 

  1. If your Excel data has no equivalent representation in OutSystems then you can go to the Data tab in Service Studio, right-click on Entities->Database and select "Import Entities from Excel...". This will create a new entity (or entities) that map to the Sheet(s) you have on your Excel file, and will use the info on the Excel file to bootstrap those entities with data.
  2. If you already have the entities and just want to bootstrap data, you can go to the Data tab in Service Studio, right-click on your Entity definition and select Advanced->"Create Action to Bootstrap Data from Excel...". This will create an Action and associated Timer to bootstrap those entities with data from the Excel file.
  3. If you want to dynamically import data when clicking on a button, I'd suggest:
    1. using the Popup_Upload RichWidgets web screen (as the target of a Popup_Editor) to get the Excel file, and then
    2. in the Notify action use the Excel To Record List tool to transform an Excel sheet into a list of Structure instances and process it.

A shortcut to implement the 3. scenario logic is to follow the instructions on the 2. scenario to let the platform generate the bootstrap action and any required structures and then remove the generated timer and the Excel file in the Data->Resources folder, and adapt the generated action to perform the import and any extra logic required in 3.2.



Hey there,


I've just solved the problem using a similar method from this post:

I would like to thank you for your time to answer my question.

[Forums] Dependency management, what kind of refresh?

July 25, 2017, 10:02 am

There seems to be two levels of refreshing dependencies in OutSystems and I feel at a loss when I try to talk about them without taking the time to explain the difference in actions.

The first type is mostly automatic, when you change something about how a module works without changing it's signature or interface. To pick up that change it seems you need to open the Add/Remove Dependencies window in outdated consumers (in v9, Manage Dependencies in v10) and then click OK and click Publish. Then the consumer picks up the changed code. I believe that republishing consumers when publishing into a new environment does the same thing. If I publish in the same environment without opening the Add/Remove Dependencies window and clicking OK it still doesn't pick up the change so it seems that opening the Dependencies window and clicking OK is doing some kind of reference refresh.

The second type requires a manual acknowledgement when you change the interface of a module. To pick up that change you do almost the same as the nearly automatic type, but you must also click the circular arrow refresh button to the right of the module name (or ) which gives you a chance to review the changes and then click OK. Once you publish that kind of change with your consuming module, OutSystems helps by enforcing that the producing module is already in the next environment or moves at the same time that you promote your consuming module to the next environment, for example from development to testing.

Is the first case not a type of reference refresh? What is it called?

I have trouble calling both of them a refresh when I discuss them with others because their scope of change, of dependency coupling, and need to potentially update all consumers or hotfix items is completely different and I have not been able to find them called differently in the documentation.

Hello,

You can use an aggregate with entity user, filtered by the user id. Then assign the value of the email returned in the current of the list of the aggregate to the variable bound to the input/expression you are using to show the mail. If the button is set to submit, you don't need to refresh nothing as it will be done automatically. If is set to Ajax submit, do an Ajax refresh in the input/expression (it needs a name)

I suggest you to take an OutSystems class or do the online courses provided free of charge by OutSystems here on the site.

In a week you will be able to do this and much more.

Cheers,

Eduardo

Hello Jacob,

For what I could infer of those two situations, the first happens when the changes in the producer does not impact the consumer. Like when you change something that the consumer is not using.

If you look in the application page, the consumer is marked outdated, because there is a new version of the producer, but when you open the references management, there is nothing to "refresh", because nothing you are using changed. 

It seems that in this case, you can "force" the consumer to use the new producer version by pressing "ok", but it seems to me that the behaviour in the consumer will not change at all, in this case.

Cheers,

Eduardo Jauch

[Forums] FullCalendar2 in mobile app

Hi May,


The Full Calendar 2 is a web plugin and its not meant for mobile apps. However, there is a way of using it with a mobile app, but it's a very difficult job. You have to download the web plugin from the Forge, create a simple mobile app and them try to convert/replicate everything from the web plugin to your new mobile app.


But, In my opinion since you are trying to create a mobile app. I would recommend you to use the Calendar Plugin from the Forge, that is supported by OutSystems (see more here). To use it you just have to follow this guide: Use Mobile Plugins in Your Application


Thank You,

Bruno Grácio

[Ideas] Simple query to advanced convertion

There could be some magic feature that would make this time saver feature. :-)


Then we could make a simple query to build the 'skeleton' of a query and then introduce the aditional rules that cannot be defined in a simple query.

Specially when we are integrating with other systems we need to create an structure to send just 2 attributes of our Entity, and in those cases we need to design an advanced query instead of doing a simple query to retrieve that 2 attributes.

[Ideas] Translations Behavior: excluding elements visible only in Service Studio

June 2, 2010, 10:41 am

The Translations Behavior screen allows the user to specify which elements of the eSpace should or should not be translated.


However, among the list of elements there is a large amount of elements that are only visible in Service Studio. This is noted on the Location column, however, there is no way to select these elements in order to specify they should not be translated.


Since in 99% of the cases these elements will not be translated (and I really can't figure out what the other 1% of the cases would be, but I leave you the benefit of the doubt), it should be possible to select all these elements easily in order to exclude them. Otherwise we're left with the tedious process of choosing all of them by hand (and there can be thousands of them in a large application), one by one...


Another solution would be simply to exclude these elements from the list. That would be fine by me also.

Henrique Capela

It would be nice if you could use dynamic data (variables) in the texts that appear as tooltips. If this was the case you could show the user context-depended information.


I know you can solve this with the balloon pattern but then you need to do a couple of things whereas filling a tooltip is just filling in a text.
