use wire query args in actions

[Behrad Zari]

Considering I have 

{% wire name="user_did_that" action={update target="id" template="my.tpl"} %}

z_event("user_did_that", { foo: bar });

then, how can I access {{ foo }} in my.tpl? (if it will be possible, since we had talked about a topic on actions being early bound in previous topics)

[Behrad Zari]

Anybody?

Ah, sorry. At first I thought someone else would chime in on this. I
think it is a interesting question, that I'd like answered too...

I'll poke around a bit see what I can find out.. :)

Aha, first, I see your example is pretty similar to that in the docs:
http://zotonic.com/docs/0.9/manuals/templates/calling-zotonic.html#wired-events

And there, it hints at the info is in the query args: " ‘foo’ and
other arguments will become query args ". No proper example use is
given, though, especially for use within a template :/

However, you can access the query args from a template with the `q` variable.

So this ought to work (not tested), my.tpl:

Value of foo is: {{ q.foo }}.


Now, I spent a few minutes searching the docs for any reference at all
to this "magic" q variable in the templates, but came out short.
Well, now that I did find some reference to this use, I also found it
mentioned in the docs, but that was so in passing so it's impossible
to find when searching for it.
http://zotonic.com/docs/0.9/ref/scomps/scomp_pager.html

Try it, see if it works! :)

I hope "q" will work Andreas, I'd noticed missing information about "query args" in zotonic docs when I was reading http://zotonic.com/docs/0.9/manuals/templates/calling-zotonic.html#wired-events. I hope I gets updated.

I'll check it...

Yep. I stumbled over this as well. It is not clear what variables are
available to you in the template. We should have a list of default
variables documented somewhere in the templates manual.

I can't access query args in actions with z_context:get_q, I searched the source and found that they are accessible after making postbacks !!!

Why !?
