Request for help - Several arrayslist to table about htmlflow HOT 9 CLOSED

Hi @Buchx ,

There is no direct support for this Issue in HtmlFlow. But maybe you can work around it with:

1. Merge the arraylists in a single List with: man.addAll(tir) or Iterable<SkemaLektion > res = () -> Stream.concat(man.stream(), tir.stream()).iterator();. Then pass the resulting iterable to the view taskView.setPrintStream(out).write(res);

2. Instead of printing the week day value in a th, just print “Week Day” on the th and then print the values "Mandag", "Tirsdag", etc in td bellow. In that case maybe the type SkemaLektion should have a property getWeekDay() which provides the data to that td: "Mandag", "Tirsdag", etc. Thus you can control inside the lambda if you have already printed the Week Day or not, like:

WeekDay last = {""}; 
…
skemaLektion -> {
   if(last[0].equals(skemaLektion.getWeekDay())) return " "
   last[0] = skemaLektion.getWeekDay();
   return skemaLektion.getWeekDay().getText();
}

Hope this helps.

Hi, @fmcarvalho

It now works flawlessly!

Maybe a bit out of context, but do you know If I can merge thoose cells with the dates OR give it attributes so I can style it a bit more? Or should I just target it with CSS children?

Kind regards

In current version of HtmlFlow td s are automatically created by trFromIterable() method and there is no way to specify further attributes on those td.s

On next version 2.0 of HtmlFlow which is in development branch and is being prepared for release this method trFromIterable() is removed and you have a completely different approach which you can check at the unit test TestTable.java and it is like:

    table.<List<Task>>binder((tbl, list) -> {
            list.forEach(item -> {
                tbl.tr()
                        .td().text(item.getTitle()).º()
                        .td().text(item.getDescription()).º()
                        .td().text(item.getPriority().toString());
            });
        });

In this way you can do whatever you want with each td.

See the README.md of development branch for further details.

Brilliant! Looking forward to version 2.0!
Thank you for all the help!

When will version 2.0 be released? Really eager to style my tds :)
So I can get it more looking like this:

Here is what I've made it to currently.

Source for above output.

public static void saveWeek(
            String weekNum,
            String header,
            String footer,
            String extrasFooter,
            ArrayList<SkemaLektion> lektures) {

        footer = footer.replaceAll("[\n]", "<br />");
        header = header.replaceAll("[\n]", "<br />");
        extrasFooter = extrasFooter.replaceAll("[\n]", "<br />");

        HtmlView<Iterable<SkemaLektion>> taskView = new HtmlView<Iterable<SkemaLektion>>();


        taskView
                .head()
                .title(weekNum)
                .linkCss("https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/css/bootstrap.min.css")
                .scriptBlock()
                .code("</script>\n<meta charset='UTF-8'>\n<script>");

        HtmlBody<Iterable<SkemaLektion>> body = taskView
                .body()
                .classAttr("container");

        // Set header text
        body
                .div()
                .text(header);

        HtmlTable<Iterable<SkemaLektion>> table = body
                .heading(2, "Øvelsesliste for uge " + weekNum.replaceAll("[-]", " "))
                .table().classAttr("table");

        // Set footer text
        body
                .br()
                .div()
                .text(footer);

        if (!extrasFooter.isEmpty()) {
            body
                    .br()
                    .div()
                    .text(extrasFooter);
        }

        String[] last = {""};
        HtmlTr<Iterable<SkemaLektion>> headerRow = table.tr();
        headerRow.th().text("Uge " + weekNum.replaceAll("[-]", " ") + " - " + SkemaController.dp.getValue().getYear());
        headerRow.th().text("Tid");
        headerRow.th().text("Enhed");
        headerRow.th().text("Fag");
        headerRow.th().text("Lek Nr");
        headerRow.th().text("Aktivitet");
        headerRow.th().text("Leder");
        headerRow.th().text("Påklædning");
        headerRow.th().text("Sted");
        table.trFromIterable(
                skemaLektion -> {
                    if (last[0].equals(skemaLektion.getWeekDay())) return "&nbsp;";
                    last[0] = skemaLektion.getWeekDay();
                    return "<div id='" + skemaLektion.getWeekDay().replaceAll("[\n]]","").substring(0, skemaLektion.getWeekDay().length() - 8) + "' style='white-space: pre-wrap;'>" + skemaLektion.getWeekDay() + "</div>";
                },
                skemaLektion -> skemaLektion.getLektid().getText(),
                skemaLektion -> skemaLektion.getEnhedValue(),
                skemaLektion -> skemaLektion.getFagValue(),
                skemaLektion -> skemaLektion.getLekNummerValue(),
                skemaLektion -> skemaLektion.getAktivitet().getText(),
                skemaLektion -> skemaLektion.getAnsvar().getText(),
                skemaLektion -> skemaLektion.getPaaklaedning().getText(),
                (SkemaLektion skemaLektion2) -> skemaLektion2.getLokation().getText());


        String fileName = "Uge_" + weekNum + "_" + SkemaController.dp.getValue().getYear() + ".html";
        try {
            PrintStream out = new PrintStream(new FileOutputStream(fileName), true, "UTF-8");
            taskView.setPrintStream(out).write(lektures);

            Desktop.getDesktop().browse(URI.create(fileName));

        } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

Maybe if you have time you could help me setting up the code for reaching an output similar to picture1?

@Buchx

When will version 2.0 be released? Really eager to style my tds :)

Maybe at the end of this week... In meanwhile you can clone this repository, checkout development branch , open a console and run mvn clean install and then add a reference to htmlflow-2.0-SNAPSHOT in your project.

I can help you with any issue that you find. But I am overwhelmed and I have no time to translate your source code to current version 2.0 HtmlFlow. Try yourself and open an Issue if you have any doubt.

Thanks,
Miguel

@Buchx

Just to let you know that version 2.0 of HtmlFlow has been released right now.

Now we just have to wait for the synchronization process with Maven Central.

Note that now we are on xmlet oganization: http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/github/xmlet/ and
https://github.com/xmlet/
