svy-autoapply

Anchor
autoApply autoApply

Is the main way of 'pushing' dataprovider updates (for 'dataprovider' typed properties defined in the web component's model) from browser to server (to the record or global/form var ...). It requires angular's 'ng-model' directive (value being the model dataprovider property) to be used on the same input element. It's purpose is to listen for any change (html 'change' event) from the input element to which it is applied as attribute and to send the new value to the server record/dataprovider after setting it in the web component's model as well (client-side). It also monitors focus and triggers startEditing on the server when the input receives focus. Behind the scenes it uses servoyApi provided to the web component by Servoy in svyServoyapi. See also apply and startEdit.

Info
title IMPORTANT
In orderfor order for svy-autoapply to work properly, the .spec file must declare that dataprovider property from the model as pushToServer: allow or higher. Otherwise the server will reject the dataprovider value updates and log a change denied warning.
