Data Manager customization: extraTopRightButtonsForAddRecord

The extraTopRightButtonsForAddRecord customization allows you to add to, or modify, the set of buttons that appears at the top right hand side of the add record screen. It is provided an actions array along with the objectName in the args struct and is not expected to return a value.

Modifying args.actions is required to make changes to the top right buttons.

Info

See Reference: Data Manager top right buttons array for detailed documentation on the format of the action items.

For example:

// /application/handlers/admin/datamanager/blog.cfc

component {

	private void function extraTopRightButtonsForAddRecord( event, rc, prc, args={} ) {
		var objectName = args.objectName ?: "";

		args.actions = args.actions ?: [];

		args.actions.append({
			  link      = event.buildAdminLink( objectName=objectName, operation="reports" )
			, btnClass  = "btn-default"
			, iconClass = "fa-bar-chart"
			, globalKey = "r"
			, title     = translateResource( "preside-objects.blog:reports.btn" )
		} );
	}
