thank you!

No problem. We'll see if @edvin or @Ruckus have a better suggestion.

That sounds about right, great work @jchildress 🙂 You should never need to instantiate a

CssRule

manually, there are helper functions for this, like 'elem`, `id ', 'c',

pc

etc.

I wonder what to do if I ever have 5 slices...

Having trouble wrapping my head around doing an api search and updating my view in a "good" way

So, I have a search box, and a view, I'm assuming I should set up an object in the view, then do a runasync that updates the object.

That's the simplest and most straight forward approach 🙂

yeah, trying it out, not sure how to do the update part

What is your UI? A TableView or something else?

something else

@User uploaded a file: Untitled

charts, tableviews, labels

If you used an ItemViewModel here, you would simply update your data and the UI would follow. For the charts you would have to redraw, they aren't data driven for now 🙂

Yeah, I was wondering how to make the itemviewmodel from the response

but I still have to deal with the jsonArrays and converting them to models.

@User uploaded a file: Untitled

I already have the ItemViewModel, just unsure how to use it with the api.

I wrote a script yesterday that generates both for me from a POJO

@pike The IDEA Plugin generates ViewModels for you automatically 🙂

View but not ItemView 😛

@pike Why do you save the jsonArray in your objects instead of a List<YourDomainObject>?

because I haven't gotten that far yet

OK. Once you have the domain objects you just call toModel() on the JsonArray

brb

working on it.

ok, updated the domains to class them into List<domain> for their jsonmodel, now I just need to figure out how to make them ItemViewModels

Generally, you would only wrap them in ItemViewModel when you're about to edit them.

That is true, I just want my view to update when the api gets the model back.

thanks for that tip, I totally overlooked parsing the arrays.

I've done a major refactoring of the TableView support in TornadoFX and included support for at

TableCellFragment

which can be used with

TableColumn.cellFragment()

.

TableCellFragment

has two properties,

itemProperty

and

rowItemProperty

, where the first points to the value from the cellValueFactory and the second points to the item for the current row. This makes it easy to support things like inline editing with validation in TableView. One example here:
