Adminpanel::Base methods

def self.form_attributes

This method is going to be used to generate the form and display the fields in the panel, it must return an array of hashes:

def self.form_fields
  [{
    'name' => {
      'type' => 'text_field',
      'label' => 'Nickname',
      'placeholder' => 'John Doe',
      'show' => 'index'
    }
  }]
end

in the example above, 'name' is the database field, 'type' is the form type, 'show' is an extra attribute described below and label and placeholder are that.

types supported

• 'type' => 'text_field'
• 'type' => 'adminpanel_file_field' works for adminpanel galleries
• 'type' => 'file_field' Used for single image input
• 'type' => 'non_image_file_field' Used for single file inputs like pdfs or documents.
• 'type' => 'wysiwyg_field'
• 'type' => 'boolean'
• 'type' => 'number_field'
• 'type' => 'password_field'
• 'type' => 'text_area'
• 'type' => 'date'
• 'type' => 'enum_field'
• 'type' => 'resource_select' Shows all your resources of the setup and lets you choose one
• 'type" => 'select', "options" => Proc.new { |object| Adminpanel::Model.scope }
• 'type' => 'checkbox', "options" => Proc.new { |object| object.custom_scope } # you may use the object available to create the scope.

additional keys and values supported

• 'show' => 'false' If you want an attribute that isn't going to be displayed in index and show.
• 'show' => 'index' If you want an attribute to be displayed in index only.
• 'show' => 'show' If you want an attribute to be displayed in show only.
• 'remote_resource' => false This resource isn't going to be created in relations forms, valid when 'type' is select or checkbox
• 'max-files' => 15 This is the maximum number of attachments that adminpanel/thismodelfile.rb is going to create.

def self.routes_options

This method should return a hash with params for the resources method in the routes, for example

{ except:[:destroy, :new], path:'super-resource' }

def self.member_routes

This methods insert routes inside a member when generating the routes, for restful custom routes.

[{
  'put' => {
    'path' => :some_controller_method,
    'args' => { as: 'super_action', path: 'super-path' }
  },
  'post' => {
    'path' => :other_controller_method,
    'args' => { as: 'move' }
  } 
}]

Adminpanel is going to insert those routes into:

resources :model do
  member do
    put :some_controller_methods, { as: 'super_action', path: 'super-path' }
    post :other_controller_method, { as: 'move' }
  end
end

After this, you'll only need to:

• Implement the method into the corresponding controller
• Add your custom button button to your view.

def self.collection_routes

def self.collection_name

This method returns the string that is going to be shown in the side menu, routes and breadcrumb, by default use the pluraliztion of self.display_name
