check role

[hoang]

Hi,

Which are the possible ways can i check for user role in 5.1?
edit:
I managed to extend the editview and check for user role but don't know how to include my javascript file. I actually included the js file in editviewdefs.php but somehow it didn't work
How do i include the js file? which file/location?
Also Is it possible to check for user role in editviewdefs?

thank you very much

Hi Hoang

Take a loot at the file modules/Accounts/metadata/editviewdefs.php
There is a section to include javascript:

                             'includes'=> array(
                                            array('file'=>'modules/Accounts/Account.js'),
                                         ), 
  

Regards

Initially when i include my js file in editviewdefs, it works fine.
Now i wish to extend the view in view.edit.php and thats working fine except that all my validation in the js file is not included.
So my question is how to include the js file in view.edit.php if it's possible.
thank you

Hi Hoang

This is the content of a view.edit.php of a good js implementation that I´ll share to community this week.

 <?php
if(!defined('sugarEntry') || !sugarEntry) die('Not A Valid Entry Point');
 
require_once('include/MVC/View/views/view.edit.php');
 
class AccountsViewEdit extends ViewEdit {
    function display() {
        require_once('custom/modules/' . $this->bean->module_dir . '/metadata/toggle_required_fieldsdefs.php');
 
        $javascript = json_encode($toggle_required_fieldsdefs);
 
        echo '<script type="text/javascript" src="custom/include/javascript/lgs_utils.js"></script>';
        echo '<script>var requiredFieldsDefs = ' . $javascript . ';</script>';
 
        parent::display();
    }
}
?>  

Enjoy it

Hi Andopes,

Many thanks for that! Your contribution to the forum has been top notch!!
I actually managed to fix that problem. There was a problem with my js file that's why it didnt execute. Anyway, just include the js file in editviewdefs as per normal and it will still work

Cheers
