Scaffolds: Adding Scaffolds

To add a scaffold:

  1. Add a table to your database. At present, it (and any tables it uses in relationships) may only have one column acting as a primary key. For the sake of example, we'll pretend we've added a table named "Contact"
  2. If the table is related to other tables in a one-to-many or many-to-many manner, add those relationships to the Reactor.xml file using <object>, <hasMany>, <hasOne>, and related tags. Full documentation for this is available in Reactor's documentation.
  3. Add the following tag to your ModelGlue.xml:
<scaffold object="contact" />

By default, this will create the following event handlers:

  1. Contact.List - Lists all contacts from the contact table
  2. Contact.View - Displays a specific contact in a read-only manner
  3. Contact.Edit - Provides a form to edit a contact
  4. Contact.Commit - Saves a contact to the database
  5. Contact.Delete - Deletes a given contact
