UbiquoFormBuilder Tabs syntax

[Jordi Beltran]

Hi guys,

I have a syntax question... I'm going to implement tabs on ubiquo forms as it's said on (http://ubiquo.lighthouseapp.com/projects/27683/tickets/492-extra-features-for-ubiquoformbuilder-fields) but I'm not sure about the syntax.

An example would be something like this:

<% ubiquo_form_for(@person) do |form| %>

  <% form.group(:type => :tabbed) do |group| %>

    <% group.add(t("personal_data")) do %>

      <%= form.text_field :name %>

      <%= form.text_field :surname %>

      <%= form.datetime_select :date_of_birdth %>

      <%= form.category_selector(:country, :type => :select) %>

    <% end %>

    <% group.add(t("hobbies")) do %>

      <%= form.category_selector(:hobbies, :type => :autocomplete) %>

    <% end %>

    <% group.add(t("professional") do %>

      <%= form.text_field :title %>

      <%= form.text_field :company_name %>

    <% end %>

  <% end %>

<% end %>

In case you want to untabb it, change the type to :div

What do you think? Is what you would expect?

Thanks!

Hi Jordi,

It's ok for me, but I think that it should be configurable what the default type is, so that if you want to transform all groups into tabs, you just configure it.

Also, it might be considered if tabs should in fact become the default field group display method.

Cheers,

Bernat

Hi,

  I would like to add that some kind of "automatic" (meaning available) tabs would be cool:

* Required fields
* Related fields
* Media fields
* Category fields

  I think it would be useful if they could be combined into a single tab, ex: maintab => Required & Media, etc.

  If all tabbing could be done automatically this should provide UI consistency and predictability at the cost of usability in some cases, but for the corner cases explicit tabbing could be  used... this has potential for improving forms without doing much extra work.

  But maybe we should discuss all of this, after there is an initial implementation. I don't think it's needed for the first iteration.

Regards
Ramon

Hi,

thanks for the comments.

Bernat, I'll add a configuration parameter to "unfold" all tabs from an application, as suggested by Bernat.

Ramon, the "automatic tabbing" features seems cool. I agree with you that it would be out of scope by now. I invite you to create a ticket for this topic.

Cheers,

Jordi
