Exercise 9 - Card with NumericHeader

In this exercise you'll enhance the sensor status page with an sap.f.Card to show some more data about the sensor's status. You'll add some layouting with box controls and add an sap.f.cards.NumericHeader to properly display the temperature.

Exercise 9.1 - Add a Card to SensorStatus.view.xml

Now you'll dress up the SensorStatus.view.xml view.

  1. Open sensormanager/webapp/view/SensorStatus.view.xml.

  2. Add the sap.f and sap.f.cards libraries to SensorStatus.view.xml.

sensormanager/webapp/view/SensorStatus.view.xml

<mvc:View displayBlock="true"
  controllerName="keepcool.sensormanager.controller.SensorStatus"
  xmlns:mvc="sap.ui.core.mvc"
  xmlns="sap.m"
  xmlns:f="sap.f"
  xmlns:card="sap.f.cards">
  1. Add an sap.f.Card with a card header to SensorStatus.view.xml. Enter the customer name as the header title via data binding.

sensormanager/webapp/view/SensorStatus.view.xml

    <Page id="SensorStatusPage" title="{i18n>titleSensorStatus}" showNavButton="true" navButtonPress=".navToSensors">
        <content>
            <VBox class="sapUiContentPadding">
            <f:Card>
                <f:header>
                <card:Header title="{parts: ['i18n>cardTitle', 'sensorModel>customer'], formatter: '.formatMessage'}"/>
                </f:header>
                <f:content>

                </f:content>
            </f:Card>
            </VBox>
        </content>
    </Page>

Exercise 9.2 - Enhance SensorStatus.controller.js

To be able to show the data in your card, you need to assign the correct binding context using the information provided by the navigation step.

  1. Open sensormanager/webapp/controller/SensorStatus.controller.js.

  2. Attach a callback function to the routeMatched event to retrieve the selected index and bind it to the current view. Also add the module sap/base/strings/formatMessage, which formats your localized text nicely.

sensormanager/webapp/controller/SensorStatus.controller.js

sap.ui.define([
    "sap/ui/core/mvc/Controller",
    "sap/base/strings/formatMessage"
], function (Controller, formatMessage) {
    "use strict";

    return Controller.extend("keepcool.sensormanager.controller.SensorStatus", {

        formatMessage: formatMessage,

        onInit: function () {
        this.getOwnerComponent().getRouter().getRoute("RouteSensorStatus").attachMatched(this.onRouteMatched, this);
        },

        onRouteMatched: function (oEvent) {
        this.getView().bindElement({
            path: "/sensors/" + oEvent.getParameter("arguments").index,
            model: "sensorModel"
        });
        },

        navToSensors: function () {
        this.getOwnerComponent().getRouter().navTo("RouteSensors");
        }

    });
});
  1. Switch to the browser tab where the application preview is opened. Click any sensor. Now the sensor status page contains a card with the customer name.



Exercise 9.3 - Add a NumericHeader to the Card

To improve the visualization further, you will replace the sap.f.card.Header by the sap.f.cards.NumericHeader in your newly created card.

  1. Open sensormanager/webapp/view/SensorStatus.view.xml and add the following content:

sensormanager/webapp/view/SensorStatus.view.xml

                <f:header>
                    <card:NumericHeader
                        title="{parts: ['i18n>cardTitle','sensorModel>customer'], formatter: '.formatMessage'}"
                        subtitle="{parts: [
                        'i18n>cardSubTitle',
                        'i18n>locationLabel',
                        'sensorModel>location',
                        'i18n>distanceLabel',
                        'sensorModel>distance',
                        'i18n>distanceUnit'],
                        formatter: '.formatMessage'}"
                        number="{sensorModel>temperature/value}"
                        scale="{i18n>temperatureUnit}"/>
                </f:header>

  1. Switch to the browser tab where the application preview is opened. Click any sensor. Now the sensor status page contains a card which includes temperature information.



  2. Add a formatter to provide semantic coloring for the card header. The formatter fetches both the threshold and the current temperature from the model. On the basis of these values it then returns the sap.m.ValueColor. Open sensormanager/webapp/controller/SensorStatus.controller.js and add the formatter function given below. Don't forget to import the sap.m.ValueColor module, which provides nice color support!

sensormanager/webapp/controller/SensorStatus.controller.js

sap.ui.define([
  "sap/ui/core/mvc/Controller",
  "sap/base/strings/formatMessage",
  "sap/m/ValueColor"
], function (Controller, formatMessage, ValueColor) {

and

        formatValueColor: function (oThreshold, iTemperature) {
            oThreshold = oThreshold || {};
            if (iTemperature < oThreshold.warm) {
                return ValueColor.Neutral;
            } else if (iTemperature >= oThreshold.warm && iTemperature < oThreshold.hot) {
                return ValueColor.Critical;
            } else {
                return ValueColor.Error;
            }
        }

  1. The sap.f.cards.NumericHeader control provides a state property, which allows you to render the state of your control in a fancy way. Open sensormanager/webapp/view/SensorStatus.view.xml.

  2. Add the state property to your numeric header and enter data binding information pointing to your newly created formatter function.

sensormanager/webapp/view/SensorStatus.view.xml

                <f:header>
                    <card:NumericHeader
                        title="{parts: ['i18n>cardTitle','sensorModel>customer'], formatter: '.formatMessage'}"
                        subtitle="{parts: [
                        'i18n>cardSubTitle',
                        'i18n>locationLabel',
                        'sensorModel>location',
                        'i18n>distanceLabel',
                        'sensorModel>distance',
                        'i18n>distanceUnit'],
                        formatter: '.formatMessage'}"
                        number="{sensorModel>temperature/value}"
                        scale="{i18n>temperatureUnit}"
                        state="{parts: [
                            'sensorModel>/threshold',
                            'sensorModel>temperature/value'],
                            formatter: '.formatValueColor'}"/>
                </f:header>
  1. Switch to the browser tab where the application preview is opened. Click any sensor. Now the sensor status page contains a card with colored temperature information depending on the value of the temperature.
