Common config

Each property in the CMS has its own API, but they all share some common props:

  • dataType Datatype of the property. (e.g. string, number, etc.)

  • name Property name (e.g. Price).

  • description Property description.

  • longDescription Longer description of a field, displayed under a popover.

  • columnWidth Width in pixels of this column in the collection view. If not set, the width is inferred based on the other configurations.

  • readOnlyIs this a read only property. When set to true, it gets rendered as a preview.

  • disabledIs this field disabled. When set to true, it gets rendered as a disabled field. You can also specify a configuration for defining the behaviour of disabled properties (including custom messages, clear value on disabled or hide the field completely) PropertyDisabledConfig

  • Field If you need to render a custom field, you can create a component that takes FieldProps as props. You receive the value, a function to update the value and additional utility props such as if there is an error. You can customize it by passing custom props that are received in the component.

  • Preview Configure how a property is displayed as a preview, e.g. in the collection view. You can customize it by passing custom props that are received in the component. More details about how to implement custom previews

  • customProps Additional props that are passed to the components defined in Field or in Preview.

  • defaultValue This value will be set by default for new entities.
