Shesha Objects

The Shesha framework simplifies the creation of dynamic, data-driven applications that respond to user interactions in real-time. It consists of built-in global objects and framework functions, that enhance the development process and enable seamless user experiences. Global objects enable users to execute http requests, share data between pages using parameters, gather information about the application's current state, and facilitate code debugging. Framework functions serve as valuable tools for developers to enhance user experience and effectively interact with the application.

📄️ App Context

App Context is a storage area shared by the whole application, useful for settings, configuration, or a value that needs to be shared across different parts of the application rather than kept on a single form.

📄️ Data

This object contains the values collected from the current form in question.

📄️ ParentFormValues

The term ParentFormValues indicates that these are the values collected from the form that is considered the parent or source of the dialog. In the context of a dialog, the parent form is the form that triggers or initiates the dialog's appearance. If we have a dialog rendering on top of a form, this is considered a parent-child relationship. The base invoice-details form acts as the parent, and the rendered invoice-line-item-create form is a child. Therefore, the current context of the application looks like this:

📄️ SelectedRow

In the context of a datatable, a SelectedRow object typically refers to the representation of a row that has been selected by the user. Datatables are commonly used in web applications to display tabular data, and allowing users to select one or more rows can be an essential feature for various interactions.
