Search

It is similar to the Browse and Search page available in the out-of-the-box UI. Using this widget you can control both the searchable attributes to be displayed on the screen and the records to be displayed in the search results. Using the Search widget you can do the following:

• Choose root repository attributes, relationships attributes, and child repository attributes to search records.
• After creating the search widget, reorder the attributes on the tree outline viewer.
• Choose the attributes to be displayed as columns for the search result data grid. The data grid is configurable.
• View the search result records on a custom page or in the out-of-the-box UI depending on the custom UI configurations.
• View or modify the search result records in the out-of-the-box UI or on a custom page. Ensure that the custom page is linked to the metadata operation.
  

  Properties	Description
  General
  Collapsible	Specify if you want to make the search filter collapsible. By default it is not collapsible and is set to False. Select True to make the search filter collapsible.
  Search Results
  Column Names	The column names are populated with the selected attributes of a particular repository in the Search widget wizard.
  Items Per Page	An array to construct a select box element in the pager in which we can change the number of the visible rows. Example: [10,20,30].
  Default Items Per Page	Specify the number of records you want to view in the search result grid. For example, 20.
  Enable Pager	Specify if you want to use the pager bar to navigate through the search result records. By default the pager bar is displayed. Select False if you do not want the pager bar.
  Row Actions	Specify if you want the Add, Modify, View, and Delete options to be enabled for the searched rows. By default it is enabled and set to True. Select False if you want to disable it.
  Result Container	Specify the result container value. By default the result container value is search_0. The search results data grid can be created in another container such as a panel. Provide the HTML DOM ID of the new container, in which you want to put the search result data grid. For example, if you defined the new container property as "panel_1", it creates a datagrid inside panel_1, which is on top of default search_0.
