davidfateh / repeater-app Goto Github PK

The plugin is installed

But the field type doesn't show up

Any idea what is going wrong?

Hi, Can you please make one of the fields (for ex: Item Name) an Autocomplete Field. I have been facing some difficulty in configuring that within a table

Hi David,

Thanks for this awesome app. This app solved my requirement with a single content-model.

Can we add few more functionalities to it?

1. Ability to rearrange the blocks [each block should be draggable and droppable any place inside the repeater container]
2. Number of fields should be configurable [now it's restricted to two]
3. Max number of characters for each field should be configurable.

Thanks in advance
Anjan

Awesome Contentful app, it would however be very helpful if this component would also support adding a help text.

Hello,

I am trying to create a migration to configure the view of a json object to this app, however, i can't seem to find the widget ID for this?

Tried:
repeater
repeater-app
repeaterApp

  ComponentContentModel
    .changeFieldControl(
      'anchorLinks',
      'extension',
      'repeater'
    )

David, thanks for this awesome app, I would like to know how I could have a third field allowing me to put an Image
Do you think it s possible?
Thank you

Hey @davidfateh I Installed the repeater app from the app store.

Digging into the code uncommenting onChange={createOnChangeHandler(item, 'value')} fixes this but obviously wont save the value.

I'm using the latest Firefox on Mac.

I see this library has not been updated in 15 Months at the time of filing this issue, this is to document for other potential users.

There are issues with this field application when it comes to localizing at a field level. What is returned from this field in some cases is an empty array for the value and not null. Contentful's fallback logic is weak and evaluates the empty array as a useful value and therefore does not fall back. This is a problem as there are unknown variables that go into when this field produces an empty array for a value. It is somehow related to how field level localization works. One does not have to directly edit and save a field to produce an empty array, but I suspect the field being visible for a locale (ie editing multiple locales in the contentful UI) has some impact.

If this app were to write empty values for keys as null I believe that would mitigate the issue and allow the field level fallback behavior to work as expected.

A tangentially related issue:
contentful/contentful.js#1000

We update our content models using the CLI through JSON. I can not find anywhere how to setup the Repeater app correctly for a field we are using. I would assume it would have to look something like this:

{
fields: [
    {
       id: 'myJsonFields',
       type: 'Object',
       name: 'MyJsonFields',
       widget: {
           id: 'Repeater', <-- probably not correct
           namespace: 'app',
       }
   }]
}

but I can not find an id anywhere, and if I set it by hand then everytime I run my migration script the Repeater app is removed from the appearance and I have to set it back, wich is quite annoying.
Any help is appreciated.
