Feature Request: Standard Events #19

Closed geeknikolai closed 4 years ago

geeknikolai commented 5 years ago

Have been using your app mostly for generating my Event subscriber signatures - and even for just that it is awesome thank you.

However, unless I'm missing something, this doesn't include the standard Events (e.g. Record.OnInsert or Field.OnValidate) - not sure how to include them without making the Event list messy but it would be very useful.

martonsagi commented 5 years ago

Standard events are not listed in the Symbol packages where I extract events from, hence the absence of them.

It's possible to generate Record/Field events, however it may have a notable performance impact. Doing a quick calculation, we are talking about ~27 000 additional events in a W1 database. We'll see how it works out :D

There are much more events then I anticipated at first. 64K! Searching and browsing events became very slow. Reading the cached results (38MB) takes longer than generating standard events on the fly. :)

I continue thinking on how to optimize the listing part.

I'd be very happy with them generated on the fly, they don't have to be searchable.

Maybe off the Assist Edit on the Table list - generate a file with all the Event Subscribers for the Table and it's Fields - like you have "New Card" at the moment.

Took some time but it's finally done as of v0.1.4. You can choose from standard events for tables and pages as well. More details here: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/subscribing-events-al-object-designer-m%C3%A1rton-s%C3%A1gi/
