The tab control can manage a set of panes and will selectively show and hide or invoke the selected panes. If the "click" option is defined, the selected pane will be invoked via a foreground click. If the "remote" option is defined, the selected pane will be invoked via a background click. If the "toggle" option is defined the selected pane will be made visible and other panes will be hidden. If using show/hide tabs, define the initial visible pane to be of the class "-ejs-pane-visible" and define other panes to be "-ejs-pane-hidden". The control's client side code will toggle these classes to make panes visible or hidden

Parameters:

rec	Tab data for the control. Tab data is a single object where the tab text is the property key and the target to invoke is the property value.
options	Optional extra options. See EspControl for a list of the standard options. click Set to "true" to invoke the selected pane via a foreground click. remote Set to "true" to invoke the selected pane via a background click. toggle Set to "true" to show the selected pane and hide other panes.

cchar * uri (cchar *target)

Create a URI.

Description:: Create a URI link by expansions tokens based on the current request and route state. The target parameter may contain partial or complete URI information. The missing parts are supplied using the current request and route tables. The resulting URI is a normalized, server-local URI (that begins with "/"). The URI will include any defined route prefix, but will not include scheme, host or port components.

Parameters:

target

The URI target. The target parameter can be a URI string or JSON style set of options. The target will have any embedded "{tokens}" expanded by using token values from the request parameters. If the target has an absolute URI path, that path is used directly after tokenization. If the target begins with "~", that character will be replaced with the route prefix. This is a very convenient way to create application top-level relative links.

If the target is a string that begins with "{AT}" it will be interpreted as a controller/action pair of the form "{AT}Controller/action". If the "controller/" portion is absent, the current controller is used. If the action component is missing, the "list" action is used. A bare "{AT}" refers to the "list" action of the current controller.

If the target starts with "{" it is interpreted as being a JSON style set of options that describe the link. If the target is a relative URI path, it is appended to the current request URI path.

If the target is a JSON style of options, it can specify the URI components: scheme, host, port, path, reference and query. If these component properties are supplied, these will be combined to create a URI.

If the target specifies either a controller/action or a JSON set of options, The URI will be created according to the route URI template. The template may be explicitly specified via a "route" target property. Otherwise, if an "action" property is specified, the route of the same name will be used. If these don't result in a usable route, the "default" route will be used.

These are the properties supported in a JSON style "{ ... }" target:

scheme String URI scheme portion
host String URI host portion
port Number URI port number
path String URI path portion
reference String URI path reference. Does not include "#"
query String URI query parameters. Does not include "?"
controller String Controller name if using a Controller-based route. This can also be specified via the action option.
action String Action to invoke. This can be a URI string or a Controller action of the form {AT}Controller/action.
route String Route name to use for the URI template

Returns:: A normalized, server-local Uri string.

Example:: Uri("http://example.com/index.html", 0);
uri("/path/to/index.html", 0);
uri("../images/splash.png", 0);
uri("~/static/images/splash.png", 0);
uri("${app}/static/images/splash.png", 0);
uri("@controller/checkout", 0);
uri("@controller/")
uri("@init")
uri("@")
uri("{ action: '@post/create' }", 0);
uri("{ action: 'checkout' }", 0);
uri("{ action: 'logout', controller: 'admin' }", 0);
uri("{ action: 'admin/logout'", 0);
uri("{ product: 'candy', quantity: '10', template: '/cart/${product}/${quantity}' }", 0);
uri("{ route: '~/STAR/edit', action: 'checkout', id: '99' }", 0);
uri("{ template: '~/static/images/${theme}/background.jpg', theme: 'blue' }", 0);.

EspControl

Suite of high-level controls that generate dynamic HTML5.

Description:

There are two forms of the ESP control APIs. The "full" form and the "abbreviated" form. The "full" form API takes a HttpConn request connection object as the first parameter and the function names are prefixed with "esp". The "abbreviated" form APIs are shorter and more convenient. They do not have a connection argument and determine the request connection using Thread-Local storage. They do not have any function prefix. Ocassionally, an ESP control name may clash with a function name in another library. If this happens, rename the ESP function in the esp-app.h header.

ESP Controls are grouped into two families: input form controls and general output controls. Input controls are typically located inside a form/endform control pair that defines a current database record from which data will be utilized. Output controls can be used anywhere on a page outside a form/endform group.

Input controls are generally of the form: function(field, options) where field is the name of the property in the current record that contains the data to display. The options is an object hash that controls and modifies how the control will render. The options hash is a JSON string, which is interpreted as a set of property values.

Various controls have custom options, but most share the following common set of option properties:

action String Action to invoke. This can be a URI string or a Controller/Action pair of the form @Controller/action. If only the controller is provided (@Controller/), the "list" action assumed.
apply String Client JQuery selector identifying the element to apply the remote update. Typically "div.ID" where ID is the DOM ID for the element.
background String Background color. This is a CSS RGB color specification. For example "FF0000" for red.
click (Boolean|Uri|String) URI to invoke if the control is clicked.
color String Foreground color. This is a CSS RGB color specification. For example "FF0000" for red.
confirm String Message to prompt the user to request confirmation before submitting a form or request.
controller Controller owning the action to invoke when clicked. Defaults to the current controller.
data-* All data-* names are passed through to the HTML unmodified.
domid String Client-side DOM-ID to use for the control
effects String Transition effects to apply when updating a control. Select from: "fadein", "fadeout", "highlight".
escape Boolean Escape the text before rendering. This converts HTML reserved tags and delimiters into an encoded form.
height (Number|String) Height of the control. Can be a number of pixels or a percentage string. Defaults to unlimited.
key Array List of fields to set as the key values to uniquely identify the clicked or edited element. The key will be rendered as a "data-key" HTML attribute and will be passed to the receiving controller when the entry is clicked or edited. Each entry of the key option can be a simple string field name or it can be an Object with a single property, where the property name is a simple string field name and the property value is the mapped field name to use as the actual key name. This supports using custom key names. NOTE: this option cannot be used if using cell clicks or edits. In that case, set click/edit to a callback function and explicitly construct the required URI and parameters.
keyFormat String Define how the keys will be handled for click and edit URIs. Set to one of the set: ["params", "path", "query"]. Default is "path". Set to "query" to add the key/value pairs to the request URI. Each pair is separated using "&" and the key and value are formatted as "key=value". Set to "params" to add the key/value pair to the request body parameters. Set to "path" to add the key values in order to the request URI. Each value is separated using "/". This provides "pretty" URIs that can be easily tokenized by router templates. If you require more complex key management, set click or edit to a callback function and format the URI and params manually.
id Number Numeric database ID for the record that originated the data for the view element.
method String HTTP method to invoke.
pass String attributes to pass through unaltered to the client
params Request parameters to include with a click or remote request
period Number Period in milliseconds to invoke the refresh URI to update the control data. If period is zero (or undefined), then refresh will be done using a perisistent connection.
query URI query string to add to click URIs.
rel String HTML rel attribute. Can be used to generate "rel=nofollow" on links.
remote (String|URI|Object) Perform the request in the background without changing the browser location.
refresh (String|URI|Object) URI to invoke in the background to refresh the control's data every period. milliseconds. If period is undefined or zero, a persistent connection may be used to refresh data. The refresh option may use the "\@Controller/action" form.
size (Number|String) Size of the element.
style String CSS Style to use for the element.
value Object Override value to display if used without a form control record.
width (Number|String) Width of the control. Can be a number of pixels or a percentage string. Defaults to unlimited. Dynamic Data

bool espUpdateFields (HttpConn *conn, cchar *tableName, MprHash *data)

Write field values to a database row.

Description:: This routine updates the current record with the given data and then saves the record to the database. The "data' argument supplies a hash of fieldNames and values. The data hash may come from the request params() or it can be manually created via ediMakeHash to convert a JSON string into an options hash. For example: ediWriteFields(rec, params()); The record runs field validations before saving to the database.

Parameters:

conn	HttpConn connection object.
tableName	Database table name.
data	Hash of field names and values to use for the update.

Returns:: "true" if the field can be successfully written. Returns false if field validations fail.

bool espUpdateRec (HttpConn *conn, EdiRec *rec)

Write a record to the database.

Description:: The record will be saved to the database after running any field validations. If any field validations fail to pass, the record will not be written and error details can be retrieved via ediGetRecErrors. If the record is a new record and the "id" column is EDI_AUTO_INC, then the "id" will be assigned prior to saving the record.

Parameters:

conn	HttpConn connection object.
rec	Record to write to the database.

Returns:: "true" if the record can be successfully written.

cchar * espUri (HttpConn *conn, cchar *target)

Create a URI.

Description:: Create a URI link by expansions tokens based on the current request and route state. The target parameter may contain partial or complete URI information. The missing parts are supplied using the current request and route tables. The resulting URI is a normalized, server-local URI (that begins with "/"). The URI will include any defined route prefix, but will not include scheme, host or port components.

Parameters:

conn

HttpConn connection object.

target

The URI target. The target parameter can be a URI string or JSON style set of options. The target will have any embedded "{tokens}" expanded by using token values from the request parameters. If the target has an absolute URI path, that path is used directly after tokenization. If the target begins with "~", that character will be replaced with the route prefix. This is a very convenient way to create application top-level relative links.

If the target is a string that begins with "{AT}" it will be interpreted as a controller/action pair of the form "{AT}Controller/action". If the "controller/" portion is absent, the current controller is used. If the action component is missing, the "list" action is used. A bare "{AT}" refers to the "list" action of the current controller.

If the target starts with "{" it is interpreted as being a JSON style set of options that describe the link. If the target is a relative URI path, it is appended to the current request URI path.

If the target is a JSON style of options, it can specify the URI components: scheme, host, port, path, reference and query. If these component properties are supplied, these will be combined to create a URI.

If the target specifies either a controller/action or a JSON set of options, The URI will be created according to the route URI template. The template may be explicitly specified via a "route" target property. Otherwise, if an "action" property is specified, the route of the same name will be used. If these don't result in a usable route, the "default" route will be used.

These are the properties supported in a JSON style "{ ... }" target:

scheme String URI scheme portion
host String URI host portion
port Number URI port number
path String URI path portion
reference String URI path reference. Does not include "#"
query String URI query parameters. Does not include "?"
controller String Controller name if using a Controller-based route. This can also be specified via the action option.
action String Action to invoke. This can be a URI string or a Controller action of the form {AT}Controller/action.
route String Route name to use for the URI template

Returns:: A normalized, server-local Uri string.

Example:: EspUri(conn, "http://example.com/index.html", 0);
espUri(conn, "/path/to/index.html", 0);
espUri(conn, "../images/splash.png", 0);
espUri(conn, "~/static/images/splash.png", 0);
espUri(conn, "${app}/static/images/splash.png", 0);
espUri(conn, "@controller/checkout", 0);
espUri(conn, "@controller/")
espUri(conn, "@init")
espUri(conn, "@")
espUri(conn, "{ action: '@post/create' }", 0);
espUri(conn, "{ action: 'checkout' }", 0);
espUri(conn, "{ action: 'logout', controller: 'admin' }", 0);
espUri(conn, "{ action: 'admin/logout'", 0);
espUri(conn, "{ product: 'candy', quantity: '10', template: '/cart/${product}/${quantity}' }", 0);
espUri(conn, "{ route: '~/STAR/edit', action: 'checkout', id: '99' }", 0);

int espCache (HttpRoute *route, cchar *uri, int lifesecs, int flags)

Add caching for response content.

Description:: This call configures caching for request responses. Caching may be used for any HTTP method, though typically it is most useful for state-less GET requests. Output data may be uniquely cached for requests with different request parameters (query, post and route parameters).

When server-side caching is requested and manual-mode is not enabled, the request response will be automatically cached. Subsequent client requests will revalidate the cached content with the server. If the server-side cached content has not expired, a HTTP Not-Modified (304) response will be sent and the client will use its client-side cached content. This results in a very fast transaction with the client as no response data is sent. Server-side caching will cache both the response headers and content.

If manual server-side caching is requested, the response will be automatically cached, but subsequent requests will require the handler to explicitly send cached content by calling httpWriteCached.

If client-side caching is requested, a "Cache-Control" Http header will be sent to the client with the caching "max-age" set to the lifesecs argument value. This causes the client to serve client-cached content and to not contact the server at all until the max-age expires. Alternatively, you can use httpSetHeader to explicitly set a "Cache-Control header. For your reference, here are some keywords that can be used in the Cache-Control Http header.

"max-age" Max time in seconds the resource is considered fresh. "s-maxage" Max time in seconds the resource is considered fresh from a shared cache. "public" marks authenticated responses as cacheable. "private" shared caches may not store the response. "no-cache" cache must re-submit request for validation before using cached copy. "no-store" response may not be stored in a cache. "must-revalidate" forces clients to revalidate the request with the server. "proxy-revalidate" similar to must-revalidate except only for proxy caches.

Use client-side caching for static content that will rarely change or for content for which using "reload" in the browser is an adequate solution to force a refresh. Use manual server-side caching for situations where you need to explicitly control when and how cached data is returned to the client. For most other situations, use server-side caching.

Parameters:

route	HttpRoute object.
uri	URI to cache. If the URI is set to "*" all URIs for that action are uniquely cached. If the request has POST data, the URI may include such post data in a sorted query format. E.g. {uri: /buy?item=scarf&quantity=1}.
lifesecs	Lifespan of cache items in seconds. If not set to positive integer, the lifesecs will default to the route lifespan.
flags	Cache control flags. Select ESP_CACHE_MANUAL to enable manual mode. In manual mode, cached content will not be automatically sent. Use httpWriteCached in the request handler to write previously cached content. Select ESP_CACHE_CLIENT to enable client-side caching. In this mode a "Cache-Control" Http header will be sent to the client with the caching "max-age". WARNING: the client will not send any request for this URI until the max-age timeout has expired. Select HTTP_CACHE_RESET to first reset existing caching configuration for this route. Select HTTP_CACHE_COMBINED, HTTP_CACHE_ONLY or HTTP_CACHE_UNIQUE to define the server-side caching mode. Only one of these three mode flags should be specified. If the HTTP_CACHE_COMBINED flag is set, the request params (query, post data and route parameters) will be ignored and all request for a given URI path will cache to the same cache record. Select HTTP_CACHE_UNIQUE to uniquely cache requests with different request parameters. The URIs specified in uris should not contain any request parameters. Select HTTP_CACHE_ONLY to cache only the exact URI with parameters specified in uris. The parameters must be in sorted www-urlencoded format. For example: /example.esp?hobby=sailing&name=john.

Returns:: A count of the bytes actually written.
