Hi, I'm trying to add a document library web-part in a modern page using CSOM, PnP. Here is my code.

var web = clientContext.Web; var page = clientContext.Web.AddClientSidePage("Home_Custom.aspx", true); CanvasSection section = new CanvasSection(page, CanvasSectionTemplate.TwoColumn, 10); page.Sections.Add(section); page.Save(); var wpExtDoc = page.InstantiateDefaultWebPart(DefaultClientSideWebParts.[DocumentEmbed/List/Image Gallery]); Document Library is missing. Although Document Library is available in web part gallery, which can be added manually. Am I missing something here. Any workaround/ resolution/ reference is highly appreciated.. Thank you

You can add a list web part like this using PnP cmdlets:

Connect-PnPOnline https://<tenant>.sharepoint.com/sites/test
$page = Add-PnPClientSidePage -Name "Home_Custom.aspx" -Publish
$list = Get-PnPList "Shared Documents" # get your list here
Add-PnPClientSidePageSection -Page $page -SectionTemplate TwoColumn
Add-PnPClientSideWebPart -Page $page -DefaultWebPartType List -WebPartProperties @{isDocumentLibrary=$true; selectedListId=$list.Id} -Section 1 -Column 1

Hope this helps.

Thank you for your response. Can't we do it in CSOM,?? As I'm doing it in a windows console application. Thank you ananda

@anandasanyal Yes you can; I wasn't sure since you mentioned PnP. I would suggest searching for the implementation of the PnP cmdlets over here: https://github.com/SharePoint/PnP-PowerShell They are implemented using CSOM.

anandasanyal commented 5 years ago

I'm using using OfficeDevPnP.Core.Enums; using OfficeDevPnP.Core.Entities; using OfficeDevPnP.Core.Pages;

Searched Github, not found any. So thought to check in. anyways Thank you ananda

Yes, you were correct. Here is my code.

var wpExtDoc = page.InstantiateDefaultWebPart(DefaultClientSideWebParts.List); wpExtDoc.Properties["isDocumentLibrary"] = true; wpExtDoc.Properties["Name"] = "Documents"; wpExtDoc.Properties["View"] = "All Documents"; wpExtDoc.Properties["Folder"]= "External Document Library"; page.AddControl(wpExtDoc, section.Columns[0]); page.Save(); page.Publish();

But still there are issues, I can only see the web part [library] when I edit the page, The web part does n't appear in normal mode. I had to edit and select the folder.

Any idea??

Thank you ananda

heinrich-ulbricht commented 5 years ago

@anandasanyal I had to set the property selectedListId to the ID of the list to show (Documents lib in your case). Try this instead of setting Name. (But I'm just guessing; PnP PowerShell sets the properties via webpart.PropertiesJson.)

anandasanyal commented 5 years ago

Hi Heinrich Thank you for your response. It was quite helpful. I'm having another issues, just checking if you can give a direction.

I'm trying add a SPFX webpart, in my new provisioned page. The webpart is already deployed. I can see that using AppManager(clientContext);

When I’m trying to get the app using, var components = page.AvailableClientSideComponents(); it’s not getting, as it’s in [Apps you can add] state, not in added state. Not appeared in Webpart gallery.

Once I add this, then it will appear in Webpart gallery. How to achieve this condition, automate the above state. Am I missing something here.

Any help on this is much appreciated.

Code:

var components = page.AvailableClientSideComponents();

//string wpName = "project-status-client-side-solution";

string wpName = "7fd19df0-1ec9-4fe8-9c7e-7812e5ef583a";

// Find our custom "project-status-client-side-solution" web part

List componentsnames = components.Select(k => k.Name).ToList();

var webPartToAdd = components.Where(wp => wp.ComponentType == 1 && wp.Name == wpName).FirstOrDefault();

            if (webPartToAdd != null) // always returning null

            {

                ClientSideWebPart clientWp = new

ClientSideWebPart(webPartToAdd) { Order = -1 };

                page.AddControl(clientWp);

            }

page.Save(); Checked with wp.Name and wp.Id, bot not worked..

Thank you anand
