Element binding by attribute (for example ID) possible?

[dominik_auras]

Hi,

it's possible to bind a view to the data via an index:

this.getView().bindElement("EntitySet>/entity/23");

But it is also possible to bind it to the data via a specific attribute?

Something like this:

this.getView().bindElement("EntitySet>/entity('id=12')";

I think i saw something similar somewhere ...

Would be great!

Ok, because I haven't solved it I've now rebuilt my application and split the data into two models.

One with the actual data that i want to display and a second (if requested) with the other data.

Hi Dominik,

Your syntax is correct and will work.

Little side note: You don't specify the entityset before the '>', you'll have to specify the model you want to bind to the view (although if you added the model with key 'entitySet', this will work ). Also refer to SAPUI5 SDK - Demo Kit - Data Binding

Best regards,

Hi Maarten,

yes,I also think that it's right but it does not work.

Isn't there a documentation that explains exactly this?

Can't find anything.

Thanks and regards,

Hi Dominik,

Refer to this blog: (it doesn't matter what type of model you are using, this example is with 2 ODataModels)

Hi Maarten,

thanks for the link!

But unfortunately this solves not my problem that the binding via ID is not working

Still have the problem that binding via line number works and via attribute not...

Kind regards,

Dominik

Hi Dominik,

Which type of model are you using? I mostly work with ODataModel buth maybe there is a difference when using other models...

Hi Maarten,

in case of testing/building my UI I use JSONmodel from a .json file.

Later I want to replace it with ODataModel received from NW Gateway.
