Umbraco Content Apps can be configured to appear alongside forms in the Umbraco Forms backoffice section.
They will appear after the default "Design" and "Settings" apps when editing a form in the backoffice:
Umbraco Forms Content App A content app such as the following would display only in the forms section:
public class TestFormsContentApp : IContentAppFactory
{
public ContentApp GetContentAppFor(object source, IEnumerable<IReadOnlyUserGroup> userGroups)
{
// Only show app on forms
if (source is FormDesign)
{
return new ContentApp
{
Alias = "testFormsContentApp",
Name = "Test App",
Icon = "icon-calculator",
View = "/App_Plugins/TestFormsContentApp/testformscontentapp.html",
Weight = 0,
};
}
return null;
}
}
Within the /App_Plugins/TestFormsContentApp/
folder we need the client-side files, for which an example is shown below:
package.manifest
:
{
"contentApps": [
{
"name": "Test Forms Content App",
"alias": "TestFormsContentApp",
"weight": 0,
"icon": "icon-calculator",
"view": "~/App_Plugins/TestFormsContentApp/testformscontentapp.html",
"show": [
"+content/*",
"+media/*",
"+member/*",
"+forms/*"
]
}
],
"javascript": [
"~/App_Plugins/TestFormsContentApp/testformscontentapp.controller.js"
]
}
testformscontentapp.html
:
<div ng-controller="My.TestFormsContentApp as vm">
<umb-box>
<umb-box-header title="Forms Content App"></umb-box-header>
<umb-box-content>
<p>Current form: <b>{{vm.formName}}</b></p>
</umb-box-content>
</umb-box>
</div>
testformscontentapp.controller.js
:
angular.module("umbraco")
.controller("My.TestFormsContentApp", function ($routeParams, formResource) {
var vm = this;
formResource.getWithWorkflowsByGuid($routeParams.id)
.then(function (response) {
vm.formName = response.data.name;
});
});
Finally, it needs to be registered via a composer:
public class TestSiteComposer : IComposer
{
public void Compose(IUmbracoBuilder builder)
{
builder.ContentApps().Append<TestFormsContentApp>();
}
}
}
