Extra Fields
Version
This requires opCharts-4.5.8 or later.
Nodes
It is possible to supply user-defined fields when editing a node, for example:
Note the new tab with title 'Extra-Fields' and inside that tab are two user-defined fields: 'Contact Person' and 'Customer ID' - these will be saved along with the node configuration data.
How To Enable
Extra fields are controlled using the Form Schema feature. Create a new schema file: /usr/local/opmojo/conf/form_schemas/admin_nodes.json
(adjust path to suit your installation location).
The content of the file should look something like this:
{ "label": "Custom node fields", "description": "Edit in conf/form_schemas/admin_nodes.json", "component": ["node_admin"], "tags": ["node"], "schema": { "configuration.customerId": { "title": "Customer ID", "type": "Text" }, "configuration.contact": { "title": "Contact Person", "type": "Text" }, "configuration.service_level": { "title": "Service Level", "type": "Select", "options": ["Aluminium", "Steel", "Carbon_Fiber", "Titanium"] } } }
Note that each field key must have prefix 'configuration.'
Refer to the documentation on the Form Schema page for more information on available options: field types, field order, form validation etc.
