Page Configuration

In Media-iBox Server 3, all pages are configurable. The data model used includes three main concepts:

  • Component: A reusable web component that can be applied to multiple pages. MIB3 will come bundled with a few basic components, but more can be developed to allow more complex interfaces. Each component is referenced by an unique key called ComponentKey.
  • Template: A reusable page template, essentially composed of a sequence of ordered components. Each template has an unique key called TemplateKey. Components inside a template are referenced by a key called TemplateComponentKey. This key MUST be unique inside one particular template, but can be reused between different templates.
  • Page: A page inside the system. Is created by taking an existing template and applying configurations to each component inside it.

This data structure used to describe a page can be approximated by this:

  • Component
    • ComponentKey
    • AssemblyName
    • ClassName
  • Template
    • TemplateKey
    • HasAnchorMenu
    • List of Components
  • Page
    • PageKey
    • One Template
    • One Dictionary<string,object> of Settings for the Page itself
    • One Dictionary<string,object> of Settings for each Component in the template

In the database, this is represented by the following tables:

  • MIB3UX_COMPONENTS
  • MIB3UX_TEMPLATES
  • MIB3UX_TEMPLATE_COMPONENTS
  • MIB3UX_PAGES
  • MIB3UX_PAGE_CONFIGURATIONS
  • MIB3UX_PAGE_COMPONENT_CONFIGURATIONS

Accessing a page can be done by opening one of these URLs:

  • /Display/{page_key} (List Mode)
  • /Display/{page_key}/{comma-separated list of ids} (Edit Mode)

MIB3UX_PAGE_CONFIGURATIONS Keys

Each page can be configured to change its behaviour, for example allowing auditing or using a custom return url. These settings are shown here.

ALLOW_AUDIT_VIEW

Enables or disables auditing on the page. Can be either true or false.

If enabled, a button located at the right-upper side of a page will open an aside with auditing information.

CUSTOM_JAVASCRIPT

URL of a custom JavaScript file to be embedded in the page.

RETURN_URL

URL that will be used to set in the Return button.

RETURN_AT_SAVE

Enables or disables returning after saving. Can be either true or false.

Instead of showing the saved item, it returns to the last page or whatever is set to RETURN_URL.

RESTORE_STATE

Enabled or disables restoring the state on navigation. Can be either true or false.

Restores the page state after navigating out of it and going back. For example, search options.

Configurations Exclusive to MibReact

The following configurations are specific to MibReact pages.

ALERT_DELETE_MESSAGE

This setting allows you to customize the message displayed in the delete confirmation alert.
