I have a ComboBox and I'd like to fetch data from server first when user type at least 3 characters.
I've used dojo.data.* but it's deprecated and I cannot find something similar in dojo.store.* and xhr|ajax in one sentence. Do you have some tips?
I use declarative markup.
You probably used the dojox/data/QueryReadStore? There is no similar store at the moment I think. The best alternative you have (with the dojo/store API) is the JsonRest store.
But it isn't exactly the same, so you might have to extend it. You should probably start by looking at both API's (the old and the new API) and compare the dojox/data/QueryReadStore and the dojo/store/JsonRest to successfully extend it.

I'm currently working on a notes app because I really dislike any notes app that I could find on the app store because the lists you can create are either:
only text
only checkboxes
lines of text followed by checkboxes or vice versa
But by now I found no app (except for Samsung's proprietary Samsung Notes app which only works on Samsung smartphones as it seems) that allows alternating use of lines text and checkboxes.
When thinking about how to implement this properly I had some issues coming up with a proper way of identifying when there is a checkbox and when there should be a line of text. For obvious reasons, just storing text and specifying an identifier like <chkbox> (or something along those lines) is not a good solution because checkboxes should only be placeable by clicking the respective icon. The user should neither be restricted to use the term <chkbox> (because for whatever reason he might want to use it) nor should injections like this be possible.
The best thing that came to my mind up until now was to store each line individually (identified by \n) in a list with dynamic datatype and for each line either store it as text object or string or as checkbox item. Finally, I could simply store the list as one single object in the database. However, I'm unsure whether that's good practice as I could imagine that it makes changes to the list quite cumbersome (e.g. for changing the ticked-value of one single checkbox we would need to store the entire datastructure again instead of just changing one boolean in the database)?
I'm working in Flutter and use Firebase Firestore as my backend/database. Although I'm mostly looking for a general approach/solution to this, with the chosen technologies in mind, is there any solution that would work better than what my recent thoughts are, or is there any serious flaws or drawbacks that I overlooked? Thanks in advance for any constructive input.
I am parsing an XML document to JSON, and eventhough I have the type array declared in the json schema, if there is just one element in the array it gets transformed into an objet like this.
"ListOfCodes":{"Codes":{{"Code":"111"}}}
but I need this:
"ListOfCodes":{"Codes":[{"Code":"111"}]}
I have several arrays in the document and I only get the sqare brackets when there is a multiple array.
and adding the properties manually is not an option.
Anyone know what can i modify to fix this in the logic app?
Unfortunately, there isn't a good solution for us to implement this requirement in logic app. Here is another post which is similar to your problem. To implement the requirement, we can just:
1. Use the "Compose" action to generate the object by hand (manually put all the properties and arrays where they need, potentially using the #array() action.
2. Call an Azure Function or some external code that can more specifically craft a valid JSON.
I also try to test it in some other way, such as use json:Array="true" and use <?xml-multiple?> but they all fail in logic app. So I think the only above two solutions(mentioned in that post) can be used. Neither approach is good, though.
New to backbone/marionette, but I believe that I understand how to use backbone when dealing with CRUD/REST; however, consider something like results from a search query. How should one model this? Of course the results likely relate to some model(s), but they are not meant to be tied to said model(s).
Part of me thinks that I should use a collection using a model that doesn't actually sync with a data store through the server, but instead just exists as a means of a modeling a search result object.
Another solution could be to have a collection with no models and just override parse.
I assume that the former is preferred, but again I have no experience with the framework. If there's an alternative/better solution than those listed above, please advise.
I prefer having one object which is responsible for both request and response parsing. It can parse the response to appropriate models and nothing more. I mean - if some of those parsed models are required somewhere in your page, there is something that keeps reference to this wrapper object and takes models from response it requires via wrapper methods.
Another option is to have Radio (https://github.com/marionettejs/backbone.radio) in this wrapper - you will not have to keep wrapper object in different places but call for data via Radio.
We have multiple projects with multiple portlets and need to send an array of objects between them.
Our situation:
One of the porlets is like a "Master-portlet", it will be responsible for all the REST-calls and consume json-data and parse it to Java-Objects.
All the other portlets will receive an array of objects and show them to the user.
Our thoughts and solution:
We wanted to implement this by sending arrays of objects trough events. One of the "smaller" portlets will send an event to the "Master-portlet" and the "Master-portlet" will then answer with a new event and send the right array of objects back.
Our problem:
We dont know how to send arrays of objects trough events. Is this even possible?
Also we are not sure if this is the right way to solve this. Are events ment to send a bigger amount of data?
Is there a better solution for our case? Maybe it would be better to implement a database and all the portlets get the information from there?
Consider portlet events (and portlets) the UI layer of your application. Based on this, judge if the amount of data that you send back and forth makes sense or not. Also, if you closely couple the portlets, you're just hiding the fact that they can only function together - at least a questionable idea. You rather want them to react to common circumstances (events), but not rely on a specific source of events (master portlet) being available.
That being said: The more complex the data is that you send as payload of a JSR-286 event, the easier you run into classloading problems in cases where your portlets are in different webapplications. If you restrict yourself to Java native types (e.g. String, Map, etc) you will omit problems with the classloader.
Typically you want to communicate changes to the current context (e.g. new "current customer" selected - and an identifier) but not all of the particular data (e.g. the new customer's name and order history). The rest of the data typically comes through the business layer anyway.
That's not to say that you absolutely must not couple your portlets - just that my preference is to rather have them very loosely coupled, so that I can add individual small portlets that replace those that I thought of yesterday.
If you have some time, I've covered a bit of this in a webinar last year, I hope that this adds some clarification where I was too vague in this quick answer.
Is it possible to have multiple VOICE_CALL options for a given TimelineItem? A scenario would be that I have a Store that has multiple contact numbers. One would be for the 800 number while a second option would be to call a specific store location directly. I have tried adding multiple MenuItems whose action is VOICE_CALL, but not surprisingly it only recognizes the first. Is something like this possible with custom menu items? I am currently writing this in Java.
This is not yet possible with the API. Please file a feature request on our issues tracker if you'd like to see this implemented.
