Usage
You need to add xmlns:gv="@nstudio/ui-collectionview"
to your page tag, and then simply use <gv:CollectionView/>
in order to add the widget to your page. Use <gv:Gridview.itemTemplate/>
to specify the template for each cell:
Simple Example
Create a simple array of objects in your JS/TS file.
const items = [
{ index: 0, name: 'TURQUOISE', color: '#1abc9c' },
{ index: 1, name: 'EMERALD', color: '#2ecc71' },
{ index: 2, name: 'PETER RIVER', color: '#3498db' },
{ index: 3, name: 'AMETHYST', color: '#9b59b6' },
{ index: 4, name: 'WET ASPHALT', color: '#34495e' },
{ index: 5, name: 'GREEN SEA', color: '#16a085' },
{ index: 6, name: 'NEPHRITIS', color: '#27ae60' },
{ index: 7, name: 'BELIZE HOLE', color: '#2980b9' },
{ index: 8, name: 'WISTERIA', color: '#8e44ad' },
{ index: 9, name: 'MIDNIGHT BLUE', color: '#2c3e50' }
];
<!-- test-page.xml -->
<Page xmlns="http://schemas.nativescript.org/tns.xsd" xmlns:gv="@nstudio/ui-collectionview" loaded="pageLoaded">
<GridLayout>
<gv:CollectionView items="items" colWidth="50%" rowHeight="100">
<gv:CollectionView.itemTemplate>
<Label text="value" verticalAlignment="center"/>
</gv:CollectionView.itemTemplate>
</gv:CollectionView>
</GridLayout>
</Page>
Templates Example
You can also have multiple templates the same way you add them in the builtin ListView
control:
<gv:CollectionView id="gv" row="0" class="cssClass" items="items"
colWidth="colWidth" rowHeight="rowHeight" itemTemplateSelector="templateSelector"
itemTap="gridViewItemTap" itemLoading="gridViewItemLoading" loadMoreItems="gridViewLoadMoreItems">
<gv:CollectionView.itemTemplates>
<template key="odd">
<GridLayout backgroundColor="#33ffff" style="margin: 10 10 0 0">
<Label text="value" verticalAlignment="center"/>
</GridLayout>
</template>
<template key="even">
<GridLayout backgroundColor="#33ffff" rows="auto, auto" style="margin: 10 10 0 0">
<Label row="0" text="value" verticalAlignment="center"/>
<Label row="1" text="value" verticalAlignment="center"/>
</GridLayout>
</template>
</gv:CollectionView.itemTemplates>
</gv:CollectionView>
export function templateSelector(item: any, index: number, items: any) {
return index % 2 === 0 ? "even" : "odd";
}
Usage in Angular
Import the module into your project.
import { CollectionViewModule } from '@nstudio/ui-collectionview/angular';
@NgModule({
imports: [
CollectionViewModule,
],
})
Simple Example
Create a simple array of objects in your Typescript file.
items = [
{ index: 0, name: 'TURQUOISE', color: '#1abc9c' },
{ index: 1, name: 'EMERALD', color: '#2ecc71' },
{ index: 2, name: 'PETER RIVER', color: '#3498db' },
{ index: 3, name: 'AMETHYST', color: '#9b59b6' },
{ index: 4, name: 'WET ASPHALT', color: '#34495e' },
{ index: 5, name: 'GREEN SEA', color: '#16a085' },
{ index: 6, name: 'NEPHRITIS', color: '#27ae60' },
{ index: 7, name: 'BELIZE HOLE', color: '#2980b9' },
{ index: 8, name: 'WISTERIA', color: '#8e44ad' },
{ index: 9, name: 'MIDNIGHT BLUE', color: '#2c3e50' }
];
Add the following to your component HTML.
<CollectionView [items]="items" colWidth="50%" rowHeight="100">
<ng-template let-item="item">
<Label [text]="item.name"></Label>
</ng-template>
</CollectionView>
Templates Example
If you want to use multiple item templates, you can do that very similarly to how you do it for the builtin ListView
control. The only difference is that due to current limitations instead of using the nsTemplateKey
directive you need to use the cvTemplateKey
directive that comes from the CollectionView. (In a future version, once the framework allows it this will be changed and you will be able to use the same directive for the CollectionView
as well)
<CollectionView row="1" [items]="items" colWidth="33%" rowHeight="100" [itemTemplateSelector]="templateSelector">
<ng-template cvTemplateKey="Defender" let-item="item" let-odd="odd">
<StackLayout [nsRouterLink]="['/item', item.id]" borderColor="blue" borderWidth="2" borderRadius="5" verticalAlignment="stretch" class="list-group-item" [class.odd]="odd">
<Label verticalAlignment="center" [text]="item.name" class="list-group-item-text" textWrap="true"></Label>
</StackLayout>
</ng-template>
<ng-template cvTemplateKey="Goalkeeper" let-item="item" let-odd="odd">
<StackLayout [nsRouterLink]="['/item', item.id]" borderColor="black" borderWidth="2" borderRadius="5" verticalAlignment="stretch" class="list-group-item" [class.odd]="odd">
<Label verticalAlignment="center" [text]="item.name" class="list-group-item-text" textWrap="true"></Label>
</StackLayout>
</ng-template>
<ng-template cvTemplateKey="Midfielder" let-item="item" let-odd="odd">
<StackLayout [nsRouterLink]="['/item', item.id]" borderColor="yellow" borderWidth="2" borderRadius="5" verticalAlignment="stretch" class="list-group-item" [class.odd]="odd">
<Label verticalAlignment="center" [text]="item.name" class="list-group-item-text" textWrap="true"></Label>
</StackLayout>
</ng-template>
<ng-template cvTemplateKey="Forward" let-item="item" let-odd="odd">
<StackLayout [nsRouterLink]="['/item', item.id]" borderColor="red" borderWidth="2" borderRadius="5" verticalAlignment="stretch" class="list-group-item" [class.odd]="odd">
<Label verticalAlignment="center" [text]="item.name" class="list-group-item-text" textWrap="true"></Label>
</StackLayout>
</ng-template>
</CollectionView>
For a more complete example, look in the demo-ng
directory.
Usage in Vue
Register the plugin in your app.ts
.
import CollectionView from '@nstudio/ui-collectionview/vue';
Vue.use(CollectionView);
Simple Example
In your component, add the following to make a simple array of objects.
export default {
// ...
data() {
const items = [
{ index: 0, name: 'TURQUOISE', color: '#1abc9c' },
{ index: 1, name: 'EMERALD', color: '#2ecc71' },
{ index: 2, name: 'PETER RIVER', color: '#3498db' },
{ index: 3, name: 'AMETHYST', color: '#9b59b6' },
{ index: 4, name: 'WET ASPHALT', color: '#34495e' },
{ index: 5, name: 'GREEN SEA', color: '#16a085' },
{ index: 6, name: 'NEPHRITIS', color: '#27ae60' },
{ index: 7, name: 'BELIZE HOLE', color: '#2980b9' },
{ index: 8, name: 'WISTERIA', color: '#8e44ad' },
{ index: 9, name: 'MIDNIGHT BLUE', color: '#2c3e50' }
];
return {
itemList: items
};
},
// ...
};
Then add the following XML to your component.
<CollectionView
:items="itemList"
colWidth="50%"
rowHeight="100"
>
<v-template>
<Label :text="item.name"></Label>
</v-template>
</CollectionView>
For a more complete example, look in the demo-vue
directory.
Usage in Svelte
Register the plugin in your app.ts
.
import CollectionViewElement from '@nstudio/ui-collectionview/svelte';
CollectionViewElement.register();
Simple Example
In you component, add the following to import Svelte Templates
and to create a simple array of objects.
import { Template } from 'svelte-native/components';
const items = [
{ index: 0, name: 'TURQUOISE', color: '#1abc9c' },
{ index: 1, name: 'EMERALD', color: '#2ecc71' },
{ index: 2, name: 'PETER RIVER', color: '#3498db' },
{ index: 3, name: 'AMETHYST', color: '#9b59b6' },
{ index: 4, name: 'WET ASPHALT', color: '#34495e' },
{ index: 5, name: 'GREEN SEA', color: '#16a085' },
{ index: 6, name: 'NEPHRITIS', color: '#27ae60' },
{ index: 7, name: 'BELIZE HOLE', color: '#2980b9' },
{ index: 8, name: 'WISTERIA', color: '#8e44ad' },
{ index: 9, name: 'MIDNIGHT BLUE', color: '#2c3e50' }
];
Then add the following XML to your component:
<collectionView
{items}
colWidth="50%"
rowHeight="100"
>
<Template let:item>
<label text="{item.name}" />
</Template>
</collectionView>
For a more complete example, look in the demo-svelte
directory.
Usage in React
Register the plugin in your app.ts
.
import { registerCollectionView } from '@nstudio/ui-collectionview/react';
registerCollectionView();
Simple Example
In your component, add the following code to create a simple list.
import { CollectionView } from '@nstudio/ui-collectionview/react';
const items = [
{ index: 0, name: 'TURQUOISE', color: '#1abc9c' },
{ index: 1, name: 'EMERALD', color: '#2ecc71' },
{ index: 2, name: 'PETER RIVER', color: '#3498db' },
{ index: 3, name: 'AMETHYST', color: '#9b59b6' },
{ index: 4, name: 'WET ASPHALT', color: '#34495e' },
{ index: 5, name: 'GREEN SEA', color: '#16a085' },
{ index: 6, name: 'NEPHRITIS', color: '#27ae60' },
{ index: 7, name: 'BELIZE HOLE', color: '#2980b9' },
{ index: 8, name: 'WISTERIA', color: '#8e44ad' },
{ index: 9, name: 'MIDNIGHT BLUE', color: '#2c3e50' }
];
interface Item {
index: number;
name: string;
color: string;
}
const cellFactory = (item: Item) => (
<label text={item.name} />
);
export function First() {
return (
<CollectionView items={items} colWidth="50%" rowHeight="100" cellFactory={cellFactory} width="100%" height="100%" />
);
}
