What I’m trying to do:
Hi, I’m trying to build a dynamic filter based on a dropdown menu.
What I’ve tried and what’s not working:
I have build a two anvil server callable functions get_TokenA() and get_TokenC().
They trigger the correct rows in the repeating panels.
Right now they work in two separate forms (form: TokenA, form: TokenB)
But, I would like to combine them in one form using a dropdown menu. When TokenA gets selected the get_TokenA() should be called, but when the dropdown menu changes to TokenC, get_TokenC() should be called.
Code Sample:
I have tried the following:
class TokenA(TokenATemplate):
def __init__(self, **properties):
# Set Form properties and Data Bindings.
self.init_components(**properties)
self.token_dd.items = [(r['name'], r) for r in app_tables.tokens.search()]
self.repeating_panel_token.items = anvil.server.call('get_TokenA')
# Any code you write here will run when the form opens.
def token_dd_change(self, **event_args):
"""This method is called when an item is selected"""
if self.token_dd.selected_value == 'TokenC':
self.repeating_panel_token.items = anvil.server.call('get_TokenC')
I am new to Anvil and not very experienced with Python in general, so please tell me if I am not heading in the right direction.
Thank you!
