I'd like to force saving data of NotesXSPDocument to prevent creating conflict document in case users are opening the same document.
For NotesDocument, there is a option in NotesDocument.save method but not in NotesXSPDocument.save.
For instance, when clicking 'save' button, I think the next codes meets my requirement. However I have lots of custom control and fields, it is not a smart solution... Is there any other good solution?
var doc:NotesDocument = document1.getDocument();
doc.replaceItemValue("Field1", data1);
doc.replaceItemValue("Field2", data2);
doc.replaceItemValue("Field3", data3);
.....
doc.save(true);
You can save a datasource as described here: https://openntf.org/XSnippets.nsf/snippet.xsp?id=save-datasource-fire-querysavepostsave-events

I've start to develop XPage 7 weeks ago, and i have a problem with "getting data".
On my first page i have a view with a lot of documents, and a button who redirect me on a new page, to create a new document. On my first page i can select a document and when i click on the button i put my id document selected on a sessionSCope.
Button script:
var viewPanel=getComponent("viewPanel1");
var docIDArray=viewPanel.getSelectedIds();
var docUID=database.getDocumentByID(docIDArray[0]).getUniversalID();
sessionScope.put("docUID", docUID);
context.redirectToPage("AjoutSuivi");
On my new XPage i want to get some data on my selected document so on clientLoad of the XPage i execute this script:
var docUID = sessionScope.get("docUID");
var doc:NotesDocument = database.getDocumentByUNID(docUID);
getComponent("contactname1").setValue(doc.getItemValueString("ContactName"));
On my database i have a field "ContactName" and on my XPage i have a field contactname1. I have try with "database.getDocumentByID(docUID)" and i'm sure that "database" is the good link of the database.
When i try it, there is nothing on the field contactname1 have u an idea why that's doesn't work ?
So much thank's if you can help me

PS: sorry for my bad english
Put your code into the event afterPageLoad and it should work (for the execution order of events take a look at XPage Cheat Sheet #1 - The Page Lifecycle).
Y4nn welcome to the XPages club. When you bind a control to a data source it is better to set the value in the data source than in the control. So you write:
document1.getDocument().replaceItemvalue(...)
(picking on a glass now, watch out for correct syntax)
I have an Xpages application that pulls data from another .nsf file. I have a view panel linked to a view in that db. The view has documents with several different forms in it. I want to be able to open each document in it's own form(xpage).
How do I write a computed At Runtime, open selected document using: statement that will select the correct Xpage to present the document.
If you use the Data View component instead of a View Panel, you can compute the pageName attribute, referencing the var attribute to return a different value for each row based on the document that row represents. The flexibility of the Data View component also makes it easier to make your app look more like a modern web application and less like an Excel spreadsheet. As an additional bonus, the mobile theme invokes a renderer that makes each Data View instance look like a native mobile list, so using Data Views instead of View Panels simplifies mobile development.
You have 2 options:
use "use xpage associated with form" and edit the form's property
use a SSJS formula to compute the Form. You provide a variable name in the view control var to access a view row as XSPViewEntry. If the Form is in a view column even one you don't display you use .getColumnValue otherwise getDocument.getItemValueString
Does that work for you?
Maybe this mothed can help you: Unable to get document page name for
Hope this helps

I had a similar problem today. I use only one form but 3 different xpages for associated with this form. I have 3 different document types in the view. I used rowData the get the type of the document.
try{
var v=rowData.getColumnValue("form");
if(v.indexOf("x")> -1){var page ="x.xsp"}
else if(v.indexOf("y") > -1){var page = "y.xsp"}
else{var page = "z.xsp"}
}catch(e){
var page = "x.xsp"
}
So to your view you can create a column with the value of the form and you can use it.
I have used the extension library Dynamic View control which has an event you can code to get a handle to the NotesViewEntry which was selected. See the demo database page Domino_DynamicView.xsp and the Custom Event Handler tab for an example.
Note, in 8.5.3 (I have not upgraded yet) if you add or edit the eventHandler for onColumnClick it will be added to the XPages source as an xe:eventHandler. It needs to be an xp:eventHandler to work. The way to do it is to copy the code in the source from the exiting event and delete it. Recreate the event and update the code. Then go back into the source and change the tags within the eventHandler to xp:.
I have a repeat control using a view as the datasource with a custom control within the repeat. The custom control is made up of a panel with two tables. One table has computed fields with an Edit button and the other has editable fields with a Save and Cancel button. The Edit and Cancel buttons work as needed, but the Save button gives a NotesDocument.save() is null error. I have already narrowed the issue down to the error occurring on the edoc.save() line by commenting out all prior lines. I even tried to do an edoc.lock(), but got the same error.
var edoc:NotesDocument = database.getDocumentByUNID(viewScope.get('docid'));
edoc.replaceItemValue('Ext_1',viewScope.get('ext_1'));
edoc.replaceItemValue('DID',viewScope.get('did'));
edoc.replaceItemValue('Mobile',viewScope.get('mobile'));
try {
edoc.save();
} catch(e) {
print(e.toString());
}
The storage of a DocID in the viewScope and a repeat control doesn't seem right. You want to add a custom property to your custom control called DocID and then instead of
database.getDocumentByUNID(viewScope.get("docid"));
You do:
database.getDocumentByUNID(compositeData.DocID);
This was you can be sure that you get the document that was in that view for that row.
What you also might consider, instead of all the manual steps (the ones you commented out) have a panel with a DocumentDataSource and then simply bind your input fields to that one. Handover of id via custom property and "IgnoreRequestParameter = true
Then you simply do a rowDoc.save() (presuming you named the datasource rowDoc) and you don't need to recycle anything. Let us know how it goes.
I have 2 xpages that interact together. The first acts as a homepage and allows the user to create a new document and fill out some basic header information. The button to create the new document, sets a sessionScope var with the NoteID. It then saves document1 and opens the same document using another xpage.
The second xpages is bound to document1, and uses the sessionScope to edit the document. This xpages contains and editPanel bound to document2. I want to create a child document to document2. This works but what happens is document1 is also saved as conflict. It is also saved as a second main document.
I DO NOT want to save document1 at all, but can't seem to prevent it. The button that creates document2 uses the simple action save document, and specfies document2.
HELP, I have tried everything, and have been stuck on this for 2 days.
Thanks!
Steve
To bind to multiple datasources, on your XPage, under Properties expand Data and set "Ignore Request Params" to TRUE
If you change the type of your buttons, to a simple button instead of a submit button, and handle the doc.save() yourself should solve your problem.
The Save Document simple action accepts the name of the data source to save as a String argument. If supplied, it will only save that specific data source.
When a form is saved via a button, I want to also create a new document using the form "MSG", which has fields for message title, body and recipient. At first I thought it might be possible using only a JS library, but now I am unsure. What about opening an unrendered XPage which is bound to that document's form, and inheriting the values into it?
I hope I understand your question right: try inserting code like this in XPage's datasource (e.g. document1) postSave event:
var doc:NotesDocument=database.createDocument();
doc.replaceItemValue("Form","msg");
doc.replaceItemValue("title",document1.getItemValueString("title"));
...
doc.save(true);
