General structure

The XML definition will be used to automatically create all views on the dataset (overview, detailed view, search view, edit/new view) and all SQL queries in the background. All attribute elements with given position (group and order) will be displayed except of no-matching cond-condition attributes.

Detailed description

view

• basedir: set to : ".."
• name: not in use
• title: not in use (Headline in old Layout)
• template (true|false): Enable function to save content as template
• parent: Parent XML-file (will be used to manipulate log entries)

Example:

<view basedir=".." name="variable" title="c_person_headline" parent="c_person_org" template="true">

rights

Controls the actions executed on the XML-file

• read (true|false): view activities
• write (true|false): write activities
• delete (true|false): delete activities

<rights read="true" write="true" delete="true"/>

id

• name: Identifier of the dataset. "md_metadata_id" should be used if available.

<id name="geodata.md_metadata_id"/>

group

• name: Internal name of the group (g + number). The number defines also the order of display.
• title: Group name (headline of group) replaced by translation id.

<group name="g0" title="geodata_g0"/>
<group name="g1" title="geodata_g1"/>
<group name="g2" title="geodata_g2"/>

map

The map-section describes if and how geometry information or displayed and linked to maps.

• id: Identification ID (should be equal to view -> id)
• layer_type (station|map): type of given geometry (station = point; map = bounding box)

<layer id="dsstation.md_metadata_id" link_type="station"/>

At least there is one section necessary to describe in which columns the geometry is located and to add rules to which layer the dataset should be linked to (RBISmap)

• layer
  • name: name of target layer (RBISmap)
  • title (station|map): not used
  • id: Identification ID (must equal to view -> id)
    • geometry:

<layer id="dsstation.md_metadata_id" link_type="station"/>

edit

• title: Headline (e.g. Edit dataset:)
• ref_id: Identifier (e.g. metadata.md_metadata_id)

• change (true|false): Display link
• change_view : Reference view for action.
• change_ov (true|false): Display link in overview
• change_title: Title replaced by translation id (e.g. Edit).

• delete (true|false): Display link
• delete_view : Reference view for action.
• delete_ov (true|false): Display link in overview
• delete_title: Title replaced by translation id (e.g. Delete).

• add (true|false): Display link
• add_view : Reference view for action.
• add_ov (true|false): Display link in overview
• add_title: Title replaced by translation id (e.g. Add).

Example 1:

<edit title="c_person_edit_title" 
ref_id="respparty.ci_respparty_id" 
change="true" 
change_ov="false" change_title="c_person_edit_change_title" delete="true" 
delete_ov="false" delete_title="c_person_edit_delete_title"/>

Example 2 (with "add" & reference view):

<edit title="adm_select_dropdown_edit_title"
ref_id="app_view_dropdown_ids.app_view_dropdown_ids_id" 
change="true" 
change_ov="false" 
change_title="adm_select_dropdown_edit_change_title" 
change_view="adm_select_dropdown_edit" 
delete="true" 
delete_ov="false" 
delete_title="adm_select_dropdown_edit_delete_title"
delete_view="adm_select_dropdown_edit" 
add="true" 
add_ov="false" 
add_title="adm_select_dropdown_edit_add_title"/>

• title:
• ref_id:
• ref_view_name:

association

• overview:

table

• name: table name in the database

<table name="metadata">

• cond: name of condition (if the name is not set in the config.php, the table will be ignored. The cond-attribute must be also set in the attribute and join element.)

config.php: $conditions["workgroup"] = 1;

<table name="fp_featpar_all2" cond="workgroup">

Example:

<table name="metadata">
</table>

attribute

• cond: name of condition (if the name is not set in the config.php, the attribute will be ignored. The cond-attribute can/must be also set in the table and join element.)

<attribute cond="workgroup" name="featpar" title="geo.... />

• pk
• type

• default:
• dateformat:
• check:

• link_id: Specifies the ID used for the link
• link_view: Specifies the target view
• link_target: Define the target php-file. The default target is view.php

• required:
• update:

• filter: true -> display selection list on overview column

• group:

join

• cond: name of condition (if the name is not set in the config.php, the table will be ignored. The cond-attribute must be also set in the table and attribute element.)

<join cond="workgroup" from_table="geodata" ... />
