Hi! I’m really interested in looking into your product! It’s really amazing.
I’ve read the tutorials and it was a great source of information, but when I tried to find more information in the API, I noticed it is down.
Is there any way to get it back on?

Thanks in advance, and again, it looks really promising!

Tim


The link to the API is here: xataface.com/documentation

I believe it is still in the process of being revised. In the meantime, these links might be helpful:

http://www.xataface.com/wiki/

As a last resort, most of the source files are well documented, so you can always grep through those.

Thanks a lot, that was very helpful!

Then I have just another small question:

When I make a field hidden in the fields.ini file (I want to hide a ID, because it’s useless information for a user) it is hidden in the EDIT view, but it is still visible on the overview. How can I make sure the field is also hidden in the SELECT view?

Thanks!

There are several visibility directives outlined on this page:

The two that you might need are:

Code: Select all
visibility:browse=hidden visibility:list=hidden

Aaah I see! That’s helpful, I wasn’t aware of those commands! Thanks.

It is really amazing what this piece of software can do!

edit after reading some of that stuff, I must admit that I’m getting more and more exticted about this greate program! Job very well done already you devs! I love how the documentation is all very clear (you can’t say that for every open source project on the internet..)
