I have a UI that shows a CRUD(create, read, update and delete) account of an employee. Now, I want to add a generate button that when its click, a window will pop-up that will show and ask if the following data in the grid lines under the UI are to be open or saved using the excel report.Also, I have already EXcelPhp library.
Here's my code for my 'actions.class.php':
public function executeLoadEmployeeList(sfWebRequest $request)
{
// $start = $request->getParameter('start') ? $request->getParameter('start'): 2;
// $limit = $request->getParameter('limit') ? $request->getParameter('limit'): 2;
$query = pg_escape_string($request->getParameter('query'));
$start = $request->getParameter('start');
$limit = $request->getParameter('limit');
if(isset($limit))
{
$page = $start / $limit;
$page ++;
}
else
$page = 1;
$criteria = Doctrine_Query::create();//what is the query?? is it select,inset,update,delete?
$criteria->select("(fname || ' ' || lname) AS fullname, department");
$criteria->from('Employees'); // Select * from profile
$criteria->orderBy('id'); // order by id
//print $criteria->getSqlQuery();
//die();
if($query!=null)
{
$criteria->where("(fname ilike '%$query%' or lname ilike '%$query%' or department ilike '%$query%')"); //where (uname ilike '%$query%' or status ilike '%$query%')
}
$allData = $criteria->fetchArray();
// print "<pre>";
// print_r($allData);
// die();
$this->pager = new sfDoctrinePager('Employees', 20); //what is sfdoctrine about? dont mind this.. this is a symphony built in class for pager
$this->pager->setQuery($criteria);
$this->pager->setPage($page);
$this->pager->init();//What is the purpose of this line? //initialize sfDoctrinePager
$result['data'] = $this->pager->getResults();
$result['totalCount'] = count($allData);
$result['limit'] = $limit;
$result['page'] = $page;
$result['query'] = $query;
die(json_encode($result));
}
public function executeAddEmployee(sfWebRequest $request)
{
try{
$fname = $request->getParameter('fname');
$lname = $request->getParameter('lname');
$department = $request->getParameter('department');
$Employee = new Employees();
$Employee->fname = $fname;
$Employee->lname = $lname;
$Employee->department = $department;
//save the data to the database
$Employee->save();
$data = array("success"=> true, "data"=>"Employee Added.");
}
catch(Exception $e)
{
$data = array("success"=> false, "data"=>$e->getMessage());
}
//$data is a return value of trycatch
die(json_encode($data));
}
public function executeDeleteEmployee(sfWebRequest $request)
{
try{
//what is Doctrine::getTable's purpose // to get the table profile
$this->forward404Unless($Employee = Doctrine::getTable('Employees')->find(array($request->getParameter('id'))), sprintf('Employee ID in Form does not exist (%s).', $request->getParameter('id')));
$Employee->delete();
$data = array("success"=> true, "data"=>"Employee record is Deleted.");
} catch(Exception $e) {
$data = array("success"=> false, "data"=>$e->getMessage());
}
//$data is a return value of trycatch
die(json_encode($data));
}
public function executeEditEmployee(sfWebRequest $request)
{
try{
$this->forward404Unless($Employee = Doctrine::getTable('Employees')->find(array($request->getParameter('id'))), sprintf('Employee ID in Form does not exist (%s).', array($request->getParameter('id'))));
$criteria = Doctrine_Query::create();
$criteria->select('fname,lname,department');
$criteria->from('Employees');
$criteria->where('id = ?', $request->getParameter('id'));//('id = ?', $request->getParameter('id') means... id = $request->getParameter('id')
$result = $criteria->fetchArray();
$record['fname'] = $Employee['fname'];
$record['lname'] = $Employee['lname'];
$record['department'] = $Employee['department'];
$data = array("success"=> true, "data"=>$record);

What I've tried so far is setting only the generate button and there's no action yet. This is under my try.js:
var generateItem = new Ext.Action ({
text: 'Generate Excel Report',
width: 60,
enabled: true,
});
Could someone help me regarding this issue?
