Hello,
I have a list of items in my Drop Down.
What I want is: When I click a specific item, it will do something
How can I do that ?
Can you guys tell me, I found nothing in Anvil site.
What I want to do is:
When I click a item in drop down it will run a script in my RaspberryPi
https://anvil.works/build#clone:3NJCBG2T75UPVLXG=SQBMMPDLKKDAKDEISTRVFOWH
I leave what I have for now.
Someone can help please.
you need to set the change event of the dropdown menu.
and then decide what to do on the change event.

I know that, but when i click in one of this options, the app dont known what option i click
I try to do with some if but doesn’t work.
What I was thinking -> if i click in 4xCOM: print(“you choose 4xCOM”)
if i click in PCB1: print(“you choose PCB1”)
Simple as that, but I dont understand to much of programing oriented objects, so how do I do that ?
Have you tried?
def dropdown_change(self, **event_args):
print(self.dropdown.selected_value)

then just do something similar to the way you set up the items I guess:
def nome_da_placa_change(self, **event_args):
"""This method is called when an item is selected"""
print(self.nome_da_placa.selected_value['Nome da Placa'])

The way you configured the items of your drop down, you select a certain table row (the live object) of your table. Now you need to decide which column of that row you want to use.
Create a server funtion on your raspi, connect the raspi via uplink and call this function here in the change event with the value of the selected row that you want to pass to your funtion:
anvil.server.call('function_on_raspi', self.dropdown.selected_value['Nome da Plaxe'])
