Dashboard.fireChange JavaScript error in pentaho CDE

1
votes

I'm using pentaho CE v7.1, the CDE Dashboard Creator.

I'm capturing a selection on a chart. When I try to set the selected category on a param, I do in the click action javascript:

Dashboards.fireChange('param_ordername', atom2.label);

where:

  • param_ordername is the parameter
  • atom2.label contains the string I want to set to the parameter

In the JavaScript console I can see this error when clicking:

ReferenceError: Dashboards is not defined

I've tried this variant:

 this.dashboard.fireChange('param_ordername', atom2.label);

with the same results.

Any clue of how to set the value to the parameter?

Thanks,

Marta

Does your dashboard have requirejs support?

If so, the Dashboards object doesn’t exist anymore.

You have two options:

  1. Disable requirejs support on the dashboard settings;
  2. Change all references to Dashboards object to this.dashboard (note the spelling differences).

I don't know why this.dashboard.fireChange() doesn't work, but dashboard.fireChange() works for me with enabled requirejs support (Pentaho CE 7.1)

With RequireJS, the usage would be:

this.dashboard.setParameter('param_name','param_value');

you can use Dashboard.setParameter('parameterName','parameterValue') or Dashboard.setParametervalue('parameterName','parameterValue')
