问题

Context

A while ago I used this answer to implement remote sorting and filtering. Using the format 'associatedModel.associatedModelField', I could easily resolve the expression in my server side code in order to query the database.

Problem

While this does the job, I encountered another problem with grouping - which I have configured to be local - the associated models. If I group a column which displays an associated field, I cannot collapse or expand without errors. Doing the same thing for the root model of the grid doesn't throw any errors.

The problem can be reproduced in this fiddle.

The error trace in the console log goes like this:

ext-all-debug.js:198133 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'isModel' of undefined

In the code I have used the solution as provided above and I also applied for the the grouping feature. It isn't exactly clean code but it works as long as I respect the limits of the fix.

How should I tackle this problem? Based on the type of problem I suppose that means rewriting the whole grouping mechanism but I don't fancy that!

回答1:

I found the answer to my question by accident. On the official docs website, this line tells you what to do:

However, if you intend to group by a data field that is a complex data type such as an Object or Array, it is necessary to define one or more Ext.util.Grouper on the feature that it can then use to lookup internal group information when grouping by different fields.

So you need to define an array in the 'groupers' config of the grouping feature:

 features: [{
            ftype: 'grouping',
            remoteRoot: 'Summary',
            groupHeaderTpl: '{name}',
            collapsible: true,
            groupers:  [{
                          property: 'Customer.Address',
                          groupFn: function (val) {
                             return val.data.Job ? val.data.Customer.Address: '';
                        }
               }]
            }]

If you group on on this column, the groupFn will be used to do the actual grouping.
