How-to add a Grid to Search and Identify

Add template links in the mapbook

• For search the templates are named search-grid-columns and search-grid-row.

• For identify the templates are named identify-grid-columns and identify-grid-row.

The search example is shown below:

<template name="search-grid-columns" src="./templates/parcel-columns.json" />
<template name="search-grid-row" src="./templates/parcel-row.html" />

Add a search alias to the service configuration

Adding a search alias allows the search-grid-columns and search-grid-row templates to be used for search services that aren’t named search, while still allowing you to point to different template files for the individual services.

To add an alias, allowing you to use the search templates for single-search, make the following changes to app.js:

app.registerService('single-search', SearchService, {
    ...
    // this tells GeoMoose to use "search" templates instead of "single-search"
    alias: 'search'
});

Further customize the search service

You can also change some of the default search options, like overwriting the title, zooming to results, or having the grid be minimized by default.

    app.registerService('single-search', SearchService, {
    ...
    // this overwrites the service title
    title: 'Simple Search'
    // this overwrites the results title
    resultsTitle: 'Simple Search Results'
    // this tells the service to zoom to the results by default
    zoomToResults: true,
    // this will enable the grid
    showGrid: true,
    // this tells GeoMoose to use "search" templates instead of "single-search"
    alias: 'search',
    // this tells the service that the grid results should be minimized by default
    gridMinimized: true
});
