Portlet Factory, Version 6.1.2

 

Creating a Domino View in a Portlet

You can use the Domino Data Access builder to create a Domino view in a portlet. Follow these general steps to create a Domino View in a portlet:

  1. First four Builder inputs (Name, Host server, User name for generation, Password for generation).

  2. Press the Get Database List button. This should populate the list of databases. If it does not, confirm that you have correctly enabled remote (IIOP) access to your server.

  3. Select a Domino database and View, and press OK.

  4. Add a call to the builder helper's getViewData method, for example, from your "main" action or from an OnWebAppLoad event handler. This will fetch the view data and populate the buildername_results variable.

  5. Display the buildername_results variable using a Data Page builder or Data View builder.

  6. Optional: Depending on the application, you might need to hide the URL and UNID columns. Use the Omit URL column input to hide the URL column and a Data Field Modifier builder to hide the UNID.

  7. Use a Link builder to provide access to URLs that open View row data. (Be sure to open in a new window.)
