List entities at a side bar

[howest-alexander]

Hi,
Is it possible to list the entities at the side bar so you don't have to go to the main page to select another entity?
And is grouping of those entities possible? Or is this in development?
Or do we have to do this with separate pages and render one entity per page?

Thanks

I'm sure it's possible to show the list of entities in the sidebar even in the current version. It's a matter of modifying EntityView or creating a new view class that has a slightly different layout.

We will investigate this possibility.

An API would be useful to be able to handle it yourself, for example:

var tables = easydata.GetAllTables()

foreach(var t in tables){
<a href=".../t.Name">t.Name</a>
}

Hello, this is nice another suggestion, how can we make the grid auto fit the entire container, with custom BS 5 styling

• Location: can we have the entities in the menu sidebar, would this be something we can edit, if so where
• Role based Access, we dont want all roles to have access to all tables
• Easily navigate between entity to entity, after modifying the entity item without returning back.
• Enums and Foreign keys as drop down options
• load only some properties, for e.g. when a aspUser table is split into 3 tables, option to load one or all 3 tables
