cq 5.3 editorgrid

Hi,

Does anyone know how to create editorgrid in dialog? I have tried following this:

http://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/cq/5-3/widgets-api/index.html?class=CQ.Ext.grid.EditorGridPanel

but I am still missing some nodes and get errors in console. I don't know any example of correct structure for this.

 

I have found also description of creating a component by using CQ.Ext here:

https://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/using/creating-custom-cq-grid.html

but it is for cq 5.5. Was anyone trying it for 5.3?

Here is a communtiy article that works with that xtype:

Creating a custom CQ component that uses an editable dialog grid

Although tested on 5.5 - it should work on 5.3. You can modify the code so it appears in the dialog. 

That is - create a custom xtype and use the logic of the grid on that custom xtype (just a script).

To learn how to build custom xtypes and code against them - see this AEM article:

https://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/using/creating-aem-multifield-components.html

Now from this article - download and install the hero component. It will show you and the article will describe coding custom xtypes. Then extend the code to use the grid. Now you will have a grid in a component's dialog.

If apis exist there should not be any change in instructions. It should work for 5.3 as well.

Hi, thank you for answer. What I need is actually a grid in dialog and not in component on page. I would like to use xtype editorgrid but I can't configure it propertly. Do you or anyone have example of it?

Maybe I will describe more in detail. I have created node with

jcr:primaryType: cq:Widget

name: ./grid

xtype: editorgrid

When I open component to edit, dialog doesn't appear and I get error:

TypeError: cm is undefined
for (var i = 0, len = cm.getColumnCount(); i < len; i++) {

so I added node under grid: colModel, I get another error now:

TypeError: cm.on is not a function
cm.on("configchange", this.onColConfigChange, this);

This object does not have events defined. It seems like it is not created properly. I tried to set some properties but didn't help.

Hi,

I know this article about custom cq grid but it doesn't solve my problem :( This grid is placed into component, and I need grid placed into dialog. Is there any possibility to create grid by using xtype in dialog without to much hassle?
