Bug #: 40629
Summary: Add 'values from query' parameter for the 'field' tag
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: master
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: SemanticForms
AssignedTo: yaro...@gmail.com
ReportedBy: katkov.ju...@gmail.com
CC: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
Currently the 'values from concept' is the only way to get the list of allowed
values from some SMW query. I propose to add 'values from query' parameter that
will allow to use SMW query language to get the list of pages that will be the
allowed values. This parameter will make Semantic Forms more flexible.
For forms that are created from a template there will be a way to specify the
allowed values without creating the concepts.
1) simple example:
Here is a simplest possible example of the new 'values from query' parameter:
{{field|somename|values from query=[[Category:Flowers]][[Color::Red]]|input
type=listbox}}
this will work in the same way as
{{field|somename|values from concept=Red Flowers|input type=listbox}}
2) real world example will make use of 'Reusing form elements' feature of
Semantic Forms:
Here is the Template:Relation_To_Flowers page:
<nowiki>{{</nowiki>field|somename|values from
query=[[Category:Flowers]][[Color::{{{1}}}|input type=listbox
<nowiki>}}</nowiki>
Here is the Form:Some form
...//some form definition
{{Relation_To_Flowers|Red}}
