Composer custom field validation

Sebastián Cisneros

@baris here is some of my code, all hooks are firing, all but the "filter:composer.check"

(function(config, app, ajaxify, $, templates) {
    'use strict';

    

    $(document).ready(function() {

	
        require(['hooks'], function (hooks) {


           //validation of composer data before submit
            hooks.on('filter:composer.check', function (payload) {

                console.log('------------- HOOK NOT FIRED -------------')

                
            });

            //on composer open load variables to tpl
            hooks.on('filter:composer.create', function (data) {

                console.log('------------- HOOK FIRED -------------')
                
            });
        });

        //fired after composer is loaded, and ready for javascript
        $(window).on('action:composer.loaded', function (ev, data) {

            console.log('------------- HOOK FIRED -------------')
            
        });

        // after composer submit
        $(window).on('action:composer.submit', function(ev, data) {
            
            console.log('------------- HOOK FIRED -------------')
            
        });

        //after composer edited, we re load the tags of the post detail page if needed
        $(window).on('action:posts.edited', function(ev, data) {

            console.log('------------- HOOK FIRED -------------')
            
        });

        //after composer posted new
        $(window).on('action:posts.loaded', function(ev, data) {

            console.log('------------- HOOK FIRED -------------')

        });
    
    });

})(config, app, ajaxify, $, window.templates || null);

Did you try putting a console.log here to see if it's triggered?

Sebastián Cisneros

@baris yes, and the console log is working there. So Its like the fire event is not reaching my function or something.

I actually modified that composer file in that place, and added my code there and its working. But this is not a clean solution, I should be able to do the same with the hook.

@Sebastián-Cisneros said in Composer custom field validation:

//validation of composer data before submit
        hooks.on('filter:composer.check', function (payload) {

            console.log('------------- HOOK NOT FIRED -------------')

            
        });

Did you check if this code is executed? You should be able to look in the hooks module loaded property to see if your listener is added.

@baris said in Composer custom field validation:

console.log('------------- HOOK NOT FIRED -------------')

console.log('------------- HOOK NOT FIRED -------------')
is not being logged

how can I look into the hooks module properties?
console log of the hooks var? when?

<baris>

Like this

console.log('adding hook listener');
hooks.on('filter:composer.check', function (payload) {
            console.log('------------- HOOK NOT FIRED -------------')
});
console.log(hooks.loaded);

See if those print the function you just added.

@baris said in Composer custom field validation:

console.log(hooks.loaded);

{
    "action:ajaxify.start": {},
    "action:ajaxify.end": {},
    "filter:composer.check": {},
    "filter:composer.create": {},
    "filter:notifications.load": {}
}

@Sebastián-Cisneros

this is how I have the current hook coded

//validation of composer data before submit
            hooks.on('filter:composer.check', function (payload) {

                console.log('filter:composer.check');

                var selectedTags = [$(".composer #topic-list-select").val()];

                console.log('selectedTags');
                console.log(selectedTags);

              

                return payload;
                
            });

nothing is getting logged on the console after submitting the composer.

Maybe put a breakpoint here and check why your listener isn't triggered. I tried on this forum and it worked fine.

Sebastián Cisneros

@baris Thanks for the help. I appreciate it.
