Details

This component displays lists of process instances both active and completed, using any defined process filter, and renders details of any chosen instance.

Setting the column schema

You can configure the list to show any of the properties of the TaskDetailsModel class. The example below shows how to set up the column schema from HTML:

<adf-tasklist ...>
    <data-columns>
        <data-column key="name" title="NAME" class="full-width name-column"></data-column>
        <data-column key="created" title="Created" class="hidden"></data-column>
    </data-columns>
</adf-tasklist>

You can also set a static custom schema declaration in app.config.json as shown below:

"adf-task-list": {
        "presets": {
            "customSchema": [
            {
                    "key": "name",
                    "type": "text",
                    "title": "name",
                    "sortable": true         
            }],
            "default": [
                {
                    "key": "name",
                    "type": "text",
                    "title": "name",
                    "sortable": true
            }],
        }
}
<adf-tasklist 
    [appId]="'1'" 
    [presetColumn]="'customSchema'">
</adf-tasklist>

You can use an HTML-based schema and an app.config.json custom schema declaration at the same time:

"adf-task-list": {
        "presets": {
            "customSchema": [
            {
                    "key": "id",
                    "type": "text",
                    "title": "Id",
                    "sortable": true         
            }],
            "default": [
                {
                    "key": "name",
                    "type": "text",
                    "title": "name",
                    "sortable": true
            }],
        }
}
<adf-tasklist
    [appId]="'1'" 
    [presetColumn]="'customSchema'">
    <data-columns>
        <data-column key="assignee" title="Assignee" class="full-width name-column">
            <ng-template let-entry="$implicit">
                    <div>{{entry.row.obj.assignee | fullName}}</div>
            </ng-template>
        </data-column>
    </data-columns>
</adf-tasklist>

Setting Sorting Order for the list

You can pass a sorting order as shown in the example below:

// Possible values are : `created-desc`, `created-asc`, `due-desc`, `due-asc`
let sortParam = 'created-desc'; 
<adf-tasklist
    [appId]="'1'"
    [sort]="sortParam">
</adf-tasklist>

Pagination strategy

The Tasklist also supports pagination as shown in the example below:

<adf-tasklist
    [appId]="'1'"
    [page]="page"
    [size]="size"
    #taskList>
</adf-tasklist>
<adf-pagination
    *ngIf="taskList"
    [target]="taskList"
    [supportedPageSizes]="supportedPages"
    #taskListPagination>
</adf-pagination>

DataTableAdapter example

See the Data Table Adapter interface page for full details of the interface and its standard implementation, ObjectDataTableAdapter. Below is an example of how you can set up the adapter for a typical tasklist:

[
 {"type": "text", "key": "id", "title": "Id"},
 {"type": "text", "key": "name", "title": "Name", "cssClass": "full-width name-column", "sortable": true},
 {"type": "text", "key": "formKey", "title": "Form Key", "sortable": true},
 {"type": "text", "key": "created", "title": "Created", "sortable": true}
]

DataColumn Features

You can customize the styling of a column and also add features like tooltips and automatic translation of column titles. See the Data Column component page for more information about these features.

showRowContextMenu event

Emitted before the context menu is displayed for a row.

Note that the TaskListComponent itself does not populate the context menu with items. You can provide all necessary content via the handler.

<adf-tasklist
    [contextMenu]="true"
    (showRowContextMenu)="onShowRowContextMenu($event)">
</adf-tasklist>

Event properties:

value: {
    row: DataRow,
    col: DataColumn,
    actions: []
}

Handler example:

onShowRowContextMenu(event: DataCellEvent) {
    event.value.actions = [
        {  title: 'Task List Context Menu' },
        { ... }
    ]
}

task list context menu

This event is cancellable. You can use event.preventDefault() to prevent the default behavior.

The TaskListComponent will automatically render the supplied menu items.

See the ContextMenu documentation for more details on the format and behavior of context actions.
