Re: [pgadmin4] Creating a new Node in ACI Tree

Hi Joao,

Just like 'nodes' & 'children' operation, You have to implement several other methods,

'obj' - To create, update, delete & properties for External Tables

Ref: ../foreign_tables/__init__.py: 193

Which will call associated methods, def create(..), def update(...), def delete(...) & def properties(...)

'sql' - Displays reversed engineered sql on SQL panel

Which will call to method def sql(...) method

'msql' - Displays reversed engineered sql on Create/Properties dialog

Which will call to method def msql(...) method

'stats' -Displays object statistics sql on Statistics panel

Which will call to method def statistics(...) method

'dependency' - Displays object dependencies on Dependencies panel

Which will call to method def dependencies(...) method

'dependent' - Displays object dependents on SQL panel

Which will call to method def dependents(...) method

Hope that helps.

Hello Hackers,

Need some pointers while creating new node on ACI Tree. 

In GreenPlum there is a concept of External Tables that are more or less similar to Foreign Wrappers, but different. So we started implementing a new node for it.

We copied the Foreign Wrappers node and started it playing with it. The current status:

We can see the External Tables node, when we open it we see the External Tables.

The problem that we are facing now is when we select a table and then press the tabs 'SQL' or Properties nothing happens. What do we need to do in order for this to work?

Maybe the choice of foreign Wrappers was not the best to start off, but we would appreciate some help to make this work.

Attached you can find the code that I currently have.

Thanks

Joao
