pwix:modal-info
What is it ?
This is a Bootstra-based Meteor package which displays standard informations about an object:
- maybe a name as a (centerd) title
- created at
- created by
- last updated at
- last updated by
- identifier
Configuration
None at the moment.
What does it provide ?
A global object
miModalInfo
Blaze components
miButton
Just a button which will triggers the dialog opening with the attached object.
Accepted parameters are:
- titleButton: the title attached to the button, defaulting to 'Informations about '
- titleDialog: the title of the to-be-opened dialog, defaulting to 'Informations'
- name: the name to be displayed at the top of the object informations, defaulting to nothing
- object: (mandatory) the object to be displayed.
miPanel
The display panel as an independant component. You are so able to integrate it into your own page.
Accepted parameters are:
- name: the name to be displayed at the top of the object informations, defaulting to nothing
- object: (mandatory) the object to be displayed.
miDialog
The modal dialog itself.
Accepted parameters are:
- title: the title of the dialog, defaulting to 'Informations'
- name: a name to be displayed on the first row, defaulting to an empty string
- object: (mandatory) the object to be displayed.
Note: the package is cool enough to destroy itself the Blaze created view on dialog close. So you don't have to take care about that.
Server-side
It could be useful to know that this package works by initializing a publication on Meteor.users collection for all records.
Only requested fields are:
- username
- emails
- createdAt
- createdBy
- updatedAt
- updatedBy
Draggable dialogs
This package can take advantage of the jQuery UI resources. If it happens that your application already has this jQuery UI dependency, then pwix:modal-info will benefit of that, and make the modal dialogs draggable. Isn't fun ?
NPM peer dependencies
Starting with v 1.1.0, and in accordance with advices from the Meteor Guide, we no more hardcode NPM dependencies in the Npm.depends clause of the package.js.
Instead we check npm versions of installed packages at runtime, on server startup, in development environment.
Dependencies as of v 1.1.0:
- @popperjs/core, starting with v 2.11,
- bootstrap, starting with v 5.2.
Each of these dependencies should be installed at application level:
meteor npm install <package> --save
