[MIGX - New Feature] renderChunk

Finally it should be possible now with MIGX 2.4.0 beta3, to render subMIGX-items or other Information using modx-chunks for grid-columns:
https://github.com/Bruno17/MIGX/downloads

The new chunkrenderer.

works like that:
Create a new Column in the MIGX - configurator for yor MIGX-TV
fieldname for example 'submigx'.
in tab 'Renderer' - choose: renderChunk
create just one Renderoptions in the grid below.
Fill out the field 'name' for example with tplColumnSubmigx

Save it.

Create a chunk 'tplColumnSubmigx'

with something like that:



MIGX should now render your MIGX-call into each Row of your MIGX-grid.

Lots of new possibilities with that feature!
Its working on my Test-Environment for MIGX and MIGXdb.

It should now also be possible to do stuff serverside, each time you add,duplicate,edit,move,remove a MIGX-item, with custom-processors. Each Time you do that it sends a request with all items and inserts the responded items into the grid again.

Congrats Bruno!,
This is amazing, i will try this and will keep you inform.
Thank you very much for sharing this plugin.

Tried but is not working with a MIGXdb inputTV, nothing comes out in the expected grid Column, no errors in the console. ej:
submigx tv is called 'migx_showtime', created a new column for the grid in the parent migx configuration with fieldname 'migx_showtime' and in the Render Tab:
Render: this.renderChunk

Item:
Name: tplColumnSubmigx
Value: *empty*
Image: *empty*


Then in Chunks i have:

tplColumnSubmigx:


times being my column database name and migx_showtime_render_tpl my chunk tpl

then, in migx_showtime_render_tpl i have something like:

the submigx-TV: is it migx or migxdb?

it's a migxdb

getImageList does only work with a json-string as generated by a MIGX-TV

to get datas from custom-tables you will need a snippet like rowboat, bloX or a custom-snippet.

called like this in your column-chunk for example:

I'm using a custom prefix for my package.
How can i tell blox to use the correct custom prefix?

Seems i'm getting this error as a result





i'm using 'plm_cms_' as my tables prefix

As in this page:
http://rtfm.modx.com/display/xPDO20/Defining+the+Database+and+Tables
I even defined the 'tablePrefix' attribute in the <model> tag of my schema just in case.

Besides the bloX call, everything in the multiple configs i have seems to be working ok.
I think i can make my custom snippet for this call, but would like to know if it is possible to use bloX for this.



UPDATE:
Here's my Snippet call:

Can i use custom table prefix with bloX?
