October Webinar - XPages Flexible View Control with Michael G. Smith

Paul S Withers | 10:22:16 AM Friday, October 9, 2020 | Full Story and Comments
If you’ve been building XPages applications for any amount of time then you probably have struggled integrating view data into your apps and thought to yourself “it shouldn’t be this hard”. The Flexible View Control for XPages can simplify this process for you. The FVC is a re-usable XPages custom control built on jQuery and DataTables that sources data from Domino REST Services and xAgents.

By using “View Definitions” to handle all of the formatting for the View such as column order, sorting, categorization, and data types, the FVC separates View data from the design and keeps Domino Views in the back-end, allowing for much more flexibility and efficiency in your application. Using a creative approach to building your back-end View indexes helps minimize the number of Views needed and can eliminate single-use Views.

Take advantage of the tight integration with DataTables and bring your View to life with the immense functionality available in that library to create a rich, interactive experience for your users. By the end of the webinar you will see the many benefits of the FVC, how easy it can be to drag and drop highly functional Views into your application, and why I ditched the built-in XPages View components many years ago.

OpenNTF August Webinar - Water Cooler Talks: A Look into a Developer's Workbench

OpenNTF presents Water Cooler Talks, an irregular new series of webinars to provide a stage for individuals sharing their stories, experiences and best practices with their peers.

This month's topic is all about developers' workbenches. As developers, we all have tools and routines we use to develop, collaborate, and test our applications. We have experienced lots of issues and made mistakes and have a workflow that does the job, but may not be ideal. Are there better ways to do our jobs? Come learn from your fellow developers in this webinar that looks at the typical toolbox and workflow routines of several OpenNTF Board members and how they develop apps, manage tasks, track bugs, handle versioning and more.
        •        Howard Greenberg develops Notes/Domino/XPages applications for a variety of  clients. Come learn how he uses source control in Domino Designer along with SourceTree and BitBucket to collaborate with his clients and maintain a history of all changes.
        •        Jesse Gallagher develops XPages and webapp projects that target Domino. He will present his development environment and discuss using Maven and Jenkins to automate builds and delivery.
        •        Serdar Basegmez utilizes Domino to create RESTful APIs for his clients. He will present his development environment and share some tips on Eclipse configuration, deployment and testing Domino plugins.

This webinar will take place on August 20, 2020 at 11:00 AM to 12:30 PM US Eastern (3 PM GMT). There will be time for questions at the end.

New Language on OpenNTF Snippets

Paul S Withers | 11:01:25 AM Sunday, July 12, 2020 | Full Story and Comments
About eighteen months ago we relaunched XSnippets as OpenNTF Snippets with expanded languages and scalability for the future. Building on that, we've added a new language Javascript (Volt), for you to add snippets of JavaScript for use in HCL Volt apps. These may not be relevant for low-code developers and citizen developers to add. But it may be something that a mid-code developer can add into an existing Volt application to add value for their business users or set up in a starter application for their business users. We want OpenNTF to be the "go-to place" for the HCL Volt community, as it has been over the years for the Domino community. We're already speaking to HCL about various initiatives, so stay tuned. As part of that, there will be opportunities for our community to get involved in a variety of capacities.
