Overview

The RowCount widget is a versatile tool designed to streamline the process of displaying row counts within a user interface. Specifically tailored for displaying row counts, this widget operates efficiently by returning the count of rows based on a provided query. By seamlessly integrating into various applications, it offers developers a convenient solution for showcasing the quantity of rows within a dataset or database table, enhancing user experience and facilitating data analysis with clarity and precision.

Use case

• Return the number of bio specimens generated from a host.

Configuration

To enable the widget's functionality, it requires the following settings.

• Table - Select a table to limit the query. If you want to search across different tables, leave it empty.

• Query - You can use the query string after the '?' from the advanced search, or you can use one or more filter sids. Variables that can be replaced: {{SID}} - The SID of the current record. {{UID}} - The UID of the current record. {{NAME}} - The name of the current record. Examples: 1. name=test 2. filter__sid=xxx

• Should auto update - If checked, this widget will perform a live calculation.

• Should auto update when readonly - If checked, this widget will perform a live calculation when readonly.

Example

{
    "table": {"sid":"xxx", "name":"xxx"}, # the table to limit the query
    "query": "name__icontains=test", # (requried)
    # paste the query
    # Some variables can be added to the link. The widget will replace it for you:
    # {{SID}}, the sid of the current record.
    # {{UID}}, the uid of the current record.
    # {{NAME}}, the name of the current record.
    "should_auto_update": false, # default to false. 
    # If true, the widget will perform live calculation
    # If false, the user have to click reload to update the value
    "format": {}, # the number in the wNumb format.
