Examples

Example 1: An insert layer with a source query

Goal: Create a list that is being filled with query result data.

To achieve this the following code can be used:

{
  "type": "insert",
  "name": "products",
  "dataKey": "products",
  "source": "query",
  "sourceParams": {
    "table": "posts",
    "query": "products",
    "layout": "i_productAfter",
    "template": "post",
    "columnSpan": 12,
    "aspectRatio": "3.5"
  }
}

Database table, query, layout and template are being provided to the insert layer inside of the sourceParams object.

Example 2: An insert layer with a source picker

Goal: Create a list that is being filled with asigned picker layer stored values.

To achieve this the following code can be used:

{
  "type": "insert",
  "name": "imageGallery",
  "source": "picker",
  "sourceParams": {
    "name": "imagePicker",
    "layout": "i_pickedImages",
    "columnSpan": 6,
    "height": "100pt"
  }
}

Name of the picker layer, layout and height are being provided to the insert layer inside of the sourceParams object.
