p:dataExporter not exporting just the displayed page - jsf

I'm doing project in PrimeFaces. I want export datatable data using dataexporter. My problem is using a dataexporter attribute to export the current displayed page content.
I try this below code:
<p:dataTable id="tbl" var="car" value="#{dataExporterView.employee}"
paginatorTemplate="{CurrentPageReport} {FirstPageLink} {PreviousPageLink}
{PageLinks} {NextPageLink} {LastPageLink} {Exporters}"
paginator="true" rows="10" style="margin-bottom:20px">
............................
<h:commandLink>
<p:graphicImage name="/demo/images/xml.png" />
<p:dataExporter type="pdf" target="tbl" fileName="employee" pageOnly="true" />
</h:commandLink>
</p:dataTable>
But even though I added pageOnly="true", it will export all pages but I want export particular displayed page only.

You cannot export particular pages of a p:dataTable, but you can add a pre or post processor changing the exported content similar to
<p:dataExporter preProcessor="#{bean.preProcessExport}"
postProcessor="#{bean.postProcessExport}"/>
with
public void preProcessExport(Object document) {
if (document instanceof com.lowagie.text.Document) {
// ...
}
}
public void postProcessExport(Object document) {
if (document instanceof com.lowagie.text.Document) {
// ...
}
}

you should remove pageOnly="true" from your code then it export current page only.

p:dataTable filter/sort functions not working inside p:carousel

I have created a <p:dialog> with an embedded <p:carousel> with tabs and in one of the tabs I have a <p:datatable> but I am noticing that actions like Pagination, Filtering and Sorting do not work in my datatable when the datatable is inside a carousel component (I tried to remove the carousel and the actions work perfectly). Are there any known issues concerning the compatibility of carousel and datatable components? Am I doing something wrong?

Primefaces lazy datatable : how to retrieve the visible list

I have a lazydatatable displaying thousands of cars. I ll have a buy button on the top of the page.
Basically, i want the user to buy all the cars visibles on the list when I press on the Buy Button. I m struggling to get a list limited to these cars.
How can I do?
xhtml
<p:dataTable var="car" value="#{carView.listCars}" paginator="true" rows="10" paginatorTemplate="{RowsPerPageDropdown} {FirstPageLink} {PreviousPageLink} {CurrentPageReport} {NextPageLink}
{LastPageLink}" rowsPerPageTemplate="5,10,15" selectionMode="single" selection="#{carView.selectedCar}" id="carTable" lazy="true">
<p:column headerText="Year">
<h:outputText value="#{car.year}" />
</p:column>
<p:column headerText="Brand">
<h:outputText value="#{car.brand}" />
</p:column>
CarService
public void buy{
...
}
CarView
public void init(){
LazyCarDataModel cars= restService.getCars();
}
Using a p:datatable in lazy mode, you provide the data for the 'visible' list via the load method in your LazyDataModel. So if you keep that list in one way or another on the server (e.g. storing it in a #Viewscoped bean`), it is available when you click 'buy'.
Another way is to support multiple selection and have a 'select all' toggle box at the top of the selection. And then use the selected files server side

Unable to Select Table Rows in PrimeFaces Using RadioButtons

I am trying to develop a web application using a PrimeFaces data table. I am having difficulty getting the object that corresponds to the selected row. Whenever I do that, a null value gets selected. Here is the relevant code:
<p:dataTable id="presTable" var="pres" value="#{presBean.presentations}"
rows="10" scrollable="true" scrollWidth="85%"
selection="#{presBean.selectedPres}" rowKey="#{pres.id}" paginator="true"
paginatorTemplate="{CurrentPageReport} {FirstPageLink} {PreviousPageLink} {PageLinks} {NextPageLink} {LastPageLink} {RowsPerPageDropdown}"
rowsPerPageTemplate="10,25,100" widgetVar="presTable" filteredValue="#{presBean.filteredPres}" selectionMode="single">
</p:column>
<f:facet name="footer">
<p:commandButton id="updateButton" process="presTable" value="Update" action="#{presBean.printSelectedPres()}"/>
</f:facet>
</p:dataTable>
Java backing bean:
public Presentation getSelectedPres() {
System.out.println("Returning selected presentation: " + selectedPres);
return selectedPres;
}
public void setSelectedPres(Presentation selectedPres) {
System.out.println("Setting selected presentation to " + selectedPres);
this.selectedPres = selectedPres;
}
public void printSelectedPres() {
System.out.println("Printing list of checked presentations:");
System.out.println(selectedPres);
}
Add a column with seletionMode=single
<p:column selectionMode="single" style="width:16px;text-align:center"/>
you can find sample for radio button here : https://www.primefaces.org/showcase/ui/data/datatable/selection.xhtml

Datatable is not updated after adding records

I have an init() function that returns a list of emails that will be displayed in a Primefaces datatable. And I have a commandButton that extract emails and persist them in the dataTable. These new records show up in the dataTable only if I log out and log in.
This is my init() function ( my managed Bean is annotated with #ManagedBean(name = "mailMB") and #SessionScoped) :
#PostConstruct
public void init() {
emails = new ArrayList();
idCustomer = (String) session.getAttribute("idCustomer");
System.out.println(idCustomer + " this is it");
cust = customerBusinessLocal.findById(idCustomer);
System.out.println(cust.getName());
datas = dataBusinessLocal.findByCustomer(cust);
System.out.println(datas.size());
for (Data d : datas) {
for (Email e : mailBusinessLocal.mailsByData(d)) {
emails.add(e);
}
}
public List<Email> getEmails() {
return emails;
}
In my page xhtml i've implemented the code below:
<h:form id="form">
<p:commandButton value="Extract" update="tableemails" id="ajax" widgetVar="extractButton"
action="#{mailMB.searchEmails()}"
icon="ui-icon-disk" styleClass="ui-priority-primary"
onstart="blockUIWidget1.block()"
oncomplete="blockUIWidget1.unblock()"/>
<pe:blockUI target="formulaire" widgetVar="blockUIWidget1">
<h:panelGrid columns="2">
<img src="../../pictures/animated-loading-bar.gif" width="264" height="34" alt="animated-loading-bar"/>
<h:outputText value="Please wait..." style="white-space: nowrap;"/>
</h:panelGrid>
</pe:blockUI>
<p:panel id="display" header="Emails" >
<p:dataTable id="tableemails" value="#{mailMB.emails}" var="item" rowsPerPageTemplate="5,10,15" paginatorTemplate="{CurrentPageReport} {FirstPageLink} {PreviousPageLink} {PageLinks} {NextPageLink} {LastPageLink} {RowsPerPageDropdown}"
paginator="true" rows="10" styleClass="case-table" emptyMessage="No records found with given criteria" paginatorPosition="bottom"
filteredValue="#{mailMB.filteredMails}" rowKey="#{item.id}"
selection="#{mailMB.selectedMail}" selectionMode="single" >
<p:ajax event="rowSelect" update=":form:display"/>
<p:column styleClass="blockable" filterStyle="width: 250px" filterBy="#{item.email} " sortBy="#{item.email}">
<f:facet name="header">
<h:outputText value="Email"/>
</f:facet>
<h:outputText value="#{item.email}"/>
</p:column>
</p:dataTable>
</p:panel>
</h:form>
it looks like you do not reload your List<Email> emails after persisting some new data. #PostConstract is executed once after your bean is created (sincce it's #SessionScoped it's created once per session), thats why you see changes only after another login. Add a method repopulateEmails() that would load data from database and run it after you add/remove something, just add it to your persist() method.
public void persist()
{
....
getEntityManager().persist(getInstance());
getEntityManager().flush();
emails = null;
......
}
public List<Email> getEmails(){
if(emails == null){
emails = repopulateEmails();
}
return emails;
}

Primefaces Datatable RowSelect Event

I have the following in my xhtml
<h:form id="clientTableForm" prependId="false">
<p:dataTable id="clientTable" widgetVar="clientTableVar"
var="client" value="#{resendEmailController.lazyDataModel}"
paginator="true" rows="15"
paginatorTemplate="{RowsPerPageDropdown} {FirstPageLink} {PreviousPageLink} {PageLinks} {NextPageLink} {LastPageLink} {CurrentPageReport}"
rowsPerPageTemplate="5,10,15,20,25,50,75,100"
paginatorPosition="bottom" pageLinks="5" lazy="true"
sortBy="#{client.cclnCode}" sortOrder="ascending"
selection="#{resendEmailController.selectedClient}"
selectionMode="single" filterDelay="500" scrollable="true"
scrollHeight="380">
<p:ajax event="rowSelect"
listener="#{resendEmailController.changeClient}"
update="_accountTableForm_accountTable" />
<p:column id="cclnCodeColumn" headerText="Client Code"
style="width:25%;" sortBy="#{client.cclnCode}"
filterBy="#{client.cclnCode}" filterMaxLength="10">
<h:outputText value="#{client.cclnCode}"
converter="#{trimStringConverter}" />
</p:column>
<p:column id="cclnNamenColumn" headerText="Client Name"
style="width:75%" sortBy="#{client.cclnName}"
filterBy="#{client.cclnName}" filterMaxLength="50">
<h:outputText value="#{client.cclnName}"
converter="#{trimStringConverter}" />
</p:column>
</p:dataTable>
</h:form>
</p:layoutUnit>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function()
{
autoSelectClient();
});
function autoSelectClient()
{
if (clientTableVar.isEmpty() == false)
{
clientTableVar.selectRow(1, false);
}
}
</script>
And I have this in my backing bean
public void changeClient(SelectEvent selectEvent)
{
ResendEmailClient client = (ResendEmailClient) selectEvent.getObject();
selectedClient = client;
String cclnCode = client.getCclnCode();
selectedAccounts = getService().listAccounts(cclnCode);
}
I would just like to ask why the "selectedClient" variable in the backing bean is NULL when executed by the "autoSelectClient();". But if I clicked the rows the "selectedClient" is already set.
As you can see in my backing bean I can get the value I want by getting the object inside the SelectEvent but I just want to know what is the cause of the difference.
Also if possible can any also suggest how to replicate the emulate the second scenario so that the "selectedClient" is already set before the "changeClient()" is invoked.
Using
JSF 2.1
PrimeFaces 3.5
Mojarra 2.1
try to send your datatable id in process of your ajax selection event like this:
<p:ajax event="rowSelect" listener="#{resendEmailController.changeClient}" update="_accountTableForm_accountTable" process="clientTable" />
Because when you call your event the real situation of your selection has no sent.
