Current situation

  • At the moment, we use ext.js for the forms.
  • All forms are generated based on yaml files, very similar to our generation of Winforms.

Commands to use

generate all webforms in openpetraorg/webserver/OpenPetraOrg.ext 

nant generateWebforms

generate all webforms in openpetraorg/webserver/OpenPetraOrg.ext/Samples/SimpleForm 

nant generateWebform -d:file=Samples/SimpleForm

start the webserver, using xsp2 from Mono: 

nant startWebServer

Visit the demo and samples page: 

http://localhost:8081

Existing demo applications and forms

  • Simple form: very simple, to understand the yaml file etc
  • Multi Country and Language: depending on the country-id parameter, a different form is loaded and also in a different language.

TODO: Controls to be implemented and tested

  • Date time picker for birthday, limiting to certain years (custom validation)
  • Multi Language form that displays a different HTML text inside an iframe
  • File upload with server side validation of image dimensions and file size (extra web service for that?)
  • Navigation between several pages, with final submission button
