silverstripe-pickerfield
========================

[](#silverstripe-pickerfield)

SilverStripe 3 GridField based management of has\_one , has\_many , and many\_many relationship selection

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- SilverStripe >= 3.1
- Andrew Short's GridFieldExtensions \[  \]

Why?
----

[](#why)

1. An efficient\* GridField based interface to manage relationship selections.
2. GridField doesn't appear to natively support has\_one relationships.
3. The ability to edit and create selected items.

Thanks to the great work of the SilverStripe team and Andrew Short's GridFieldExtensions, the development of this module was a bit easier. Be kind to them.

\* by efficient we needed ajax + pagination, as we couldn't load all records into a dropdown list for instance.

/***********************
	Mock DataObject
************************/

class Dog extends DataObject {
	static $db = array(
		'Title'				=> 'Varchar',
		// ....
	);

	static $has_one = array(
		'Breeder'			=> 'Breeder'
		'Dam'				=> 'Dog',
		'Sire'				=> 'Dog',
		// ....
	);

	static $has_many = array(
		'Owners'	=> 'Member',
		// ....
	);

// ....

}

/***********************
	Field Usage
************************/

// sortable field appropriate for selection of has_many and many_many objects
$field = new PickerField('Owners', 'Owners', $this->Owners(), 'Select Owner(s)', 'SortOrder');

// non-sortable version of the above
$field = new PickerField('Owners', 'Owners', $this->Owners());

// sortable field appropriate for the parent selection of a has_one relationship
$field = new HasOnePickerField($this, 'DamID', 'Selected Dam', $this->Dam(), 'Select a Dam');

// we also allow the ability to create and edit associated records via enableCreate, enableEdit methods.
$fields->addFieldsToTab('Root.Main', array(
  new HeaderField('Info','Info Blocks'),
  $field = new HasOnePickerField($this, 'AboutInfoBlockID', 'About Block', $this->AboutInfoBlock())
));

$field->enableCreate('Add Block')->enableEdit();
