So… I’ve been diving into all things Lightning/Skuid as it’s increasingly requested of me.
I’m really quite excited to dive into Lightning Events as it seems to be the most crucial understanding needed for this.
I have a few questions on the “Publish Event” action.
1. Publishing Scope. Do I have the correct understanding when “converting” to terms?
a) “All active pages and Lightning Components” is an Application Event.
b) “All active pages” is a Component Event.
c) “Only this page” is an event that doesn’t publish beyond the current Skuid page.
2. Event Name. Currently there’s a short list of events in a drop down.
a) I assume these are the most commonly used events?
b) Can we assume that all these standard events can be used?
c) Additionally, custom Events can be triggered by simply knowing their name?
3. Event Parameters. Seemingly this is handled like “Show Toast Message”. As in, parameters automatically exposed on the skuid page builder. Is this able to handle all possible types of parameters? Such as a list of records?
Event-Triggered Sequences
1. Event Name.
a) There is a drop down list of events. Are these there as there a handler function that you’ve built into the Lightning Skuid component? Or is this something all Lightning components come with?
2. Inputs.
a) Are inputs event parameters for other lightning components?
Lastly, can Skuid provide an updated CRM package that goes ham with all sorts of ways in which Skuid can integrate into the Lightning experience? I’ve seen demos, but the underlying architecture being accessible would be great.
