Modal window in wagtail page editing interface
I want to add a custom BlockFeature and for that i need a modal window for input. I don't understand how to make a modal input window so that the entred data will go straight to my custom blockfeature props.
The feature i'm working on is an ordered list that starts with a given number (). So yeah, basically, i need that modal window to enter the starting number
@hooks.register('register_rich_text_features')
def register_ol_custom_feature(features):
feature_name = "ol-custom"
type_ = "ol-custom"
control = {
"type": type_,
"label": "ol+",
"element": "ol",
"description": "Set start",
}
features.register_editor_plugin(
'draftail',
feature_name,
BlockFeature(
control,
js=["static/js/orderedListCustom.js"],
),
)
db_conversion = {
"from_database_format": {
"ol[start]": BlockElementHandler(type_)
},
"to_database_format": {
'block_map': {
type_: lambda props: DOM.create_element(
"ol",
{"start": props.get("start") if "start" in props else 1}
)
}
},
}
features.register_converter_rule("contentstate", feature_name, db_conversion)
features.default_features.append(feature_name)
I tried several js codes that i found online or got from ai, none of them worked (my bad, i suck at js). Also came across one post on here, but it didn't help (: In the end, i'm not even sure what things i need to consider/add/alter, what's the workflow here. Can anyone help?
