Actions¶

Horizon has two types of actions

TableActions
RowActions

some actions can by used for both categories.

Filter Action¶

Simple filter action which provide initial for our client-side filtering. Server-side is not implemented for now, but is not too many work and it’s in the plan.

default search in all fields

from horizon_contrib.tables.actions import FilterAction

or specify one field

from horizon_contrib.tables.actions import FilterAction

class MyFilter(FilterAction):

    fields = ['name', 'subject']

    lookups = ['project__name']

DeleteAction¶

Simple action based on horizon’s DeleteAction. It’s BatchAction for more detail see Horizon doc.

from horizon import tables
from horizon_contrib.tables import DeleteAction

class MyTable(tables.DataTable):

    class Meta:
        table_actions = (DeleteAction,)
        row_actions = (DeleteAction,)

Warning

For this time is not implemented in transaction !

CreateAction¶

There is nothing special it’s only LinkAction with implemented get_link_url

from horizon_contrib.tables.actions import CreateAction

UpdateAction¶

There is nothing special it’s only LinkAction with implemented get_link_url

Packs of Actions¶

For less code is there some action packs

CD_ACTIONS - CREATE and DELETE can be used for table and row actions
ROW_ACTIONS - same as CD_ACTIONS, but with UpdateAction
TABLE_ACTIONS - same as CD_ACTIONS but with FilterAction

from horizon import tables
from horizon_contrib.tables import ROW_ACTIONS, TABLE_ACTIONS

class MyTable(tables.DataTable)

    class Meta:
        row_actions = ROW_ACTIONS
        tables_actions = TABLE_ACTIONS

Warning

In default state these actions sets works only with our table classes !
