Address autocomplete widget

The address autocomplete widget allows to input an address as a text value, autocompleted by the Google Maps API.

agent.customize_collection('customer').add_action('Update address', {
    "scope": "Single",
    "form": [
        {
            "label": 'Address',
            "type": 'String',
            "widget": 'AddressAutocomplete',
            "placeholder": 'Type the address here',
        },
    ],
    "execute": lambda context, result_builder: pass,  # perform work here
})

The above code will produce the following form (when empty):

And once the user starts typing:

Options

Option	Type	Dynamic support	Usage	Minimal version	Description
default_value	string	dynamic or static	optional	*	Default value when displaying the field for the first time.
description	string	dynamic or static	optional	*	Description shown above the field, with additional help for users.

Checkbox widget

The checkbox widget allows to activate or deactivate a boolean value.

agent.customize_collection('product').add_action('Refresh price', {
    "scope": "Single",
    "form": [
        {
            "label": 'Send a notification',
            "type": 'Single',
            "widget": 'Checkbox',
            "is_required": True,
            "default_value": False,
        },
    ],
    "execute": lambda context, result_builder: pass,  # perform work here
})

The above code will produce the following form:

Checkbox widget on an action form

Options

The Checkbox widget has no specific options, but its behavior can be customized using the following already existing options on fields:

Option	Type	Dynamic support	Usage	Minimal version	Description
default_value	boolean or None	dynamic or static	optional	1.3.0	Default value of the field. Define a value different from None in combination to is_required to receive a not-null value even if the user did not click the widget.
description	string	dynamic or static	optional	*	Description shown above the field, with additional help for users.
is_read_only	boolean	dynamic or static	optional	*	Displays a read only field.
is_required	boolean	dynamic or static	optional	1.3.0	If is_required is set to false (default value), the checkbox widget allows users to choose between 3 states: True, False and Null. Setting is_required to True only allows 2 states: True and False. In both cases the default value will be None if not defined.
label	string	static value only	required	*	Field's label.

By default, the Checkbox widget allows 3 states:

• None

• True

• False

To ensure having only 2 states, you need to:

1. set the is_required option to True,

2. define a value for the default_value option.

Checkbox group widget

The checkbox group widget allows to select multiple values from a list of options.

agent.customize_collection('product').add_action('Leave a review', {
    "scope": 'Single',
    "form": [

            "label": "Why do you like this product?",
            "type": "StringList",
            "widget": "CheckboxGroup",
            "options": [

Dropdown widget on an action form

In this next example, we call a remote api to get a list of products and then perform a custom filter based on given fields of the json response, and return the first 25. This example uses "search": "dynamic" dropdown widget, which provides you with the search_value in the callback context.

Note: when a search is performed, only the field on which it is performed will have its options recomputed.

from forestadmin.datasource_toolkit.decorators.action.context.base import (
    ActionContext
)
import requests

def options_fn(context: ActionContext, search_value: str | None):
    products = requests.get('https://api.fake-eshop.com/v2/products').json()
    searched_products = []
    for product in products:
        if search_value is None:  # case of initialization
            searched_products.append({ "label": product["name"], "value": product["id"] })
            continue

        for field in ['description', 'name', 'features', 'keyword', 'category']:
            if search_value.lower() in product[field].lower():
                searched_products.append({ "label": product["name"], "value": product["id"] })
                break

    return sorted(searched_products, key=lambda x: ["label"])[0:25]

agent.customize_collection('product').add_action('Add more products', {
    "scope": "Global",
    "form": [
        {
            "label": "Select some products",
            "type": "StringList",
            "widget": "Dropdown",
            "options": options_fn,
