Thanks for the reply and advice, happydude. I will think about the DMZ integration as an option. In the meantime i would like to proceed with developing the CarboModel, which is not exactly an ORM, but will have the same benefits + form generation. The main advantage compared to DMZ would be, that I don’t have to create a new model, every time I add a new table, i only have to make the setup in the database ( = no changes in the source code). I will release a preview of CarboModel within the next few days.
Anyway, DMZ is still a good idea, expecially for those, who are already using it and would like to use CarboGrid.
I haven’t tested it yet, but checked out the demo. Love it specially the example with CarboModel. Waiting for the full release. This will be very helpful I guess.
Thanks for the feedbacks.
@happydude: Ready with full features… i don’t know, i’m doing it in my spare time. But I try to make a useful release next week I hope. Unfortunatly we had a server failure at the company I work for, so this gives me I few days of hard work, no time for fun.
Long time no updates… Things are getting crazy over here in Romania and I have to work hard for a living, no time for my project.. :(
Anyway, I released version 0.8, which includes now CarboModel with some basic features. The main idea is, to be able to add/edit/delete more tables and fields based on a database setup, without the need to modify the application code for every new table and/or field you add.
Now you are able to create new tables and fields, you can define relationships within tables (no database relations are created for now, foreign key integrity is maintained in the model), and some validation rules for the fields.
So that’s it for now, check out http://carbogrid.sourceforge.net/tables/ to see and understand more. Download is also available. Update scripts will not be available until something production ready comes out.
I am trying to utilize your carbogrid because it is the best one out there compared to what I need. I have installed all the files but I am trying to figure out how to use it for my existing tables.
Ok I figured what I needed to do. Loving CarboGrid still working the model aspect.
I have figured out how to add rows but the problem I am working is how to delete and edit a single row. Based off the jquery the delete links post the row number and not the id of the table row. What do I need to do to change that? I am java newbie Thanks.
You pass the data in an array for the grid, right? Make sure that the array is an associative array which has your id as key (instead of index). E.g $data[124] = array(...)
Anyway, CarboGrid is under major changes, the current version isn’t too flexible and has some issues. It will take a config array as paramater and will generate the CRUD querys based on config. Built in database setup will be dropped for a while.
Maybe in a few weeks I can come up with something.
