Hello everyone
I am looking to pre-fill a form with localStorage data.

It is better to go through the form or model?

I do not know what to do and I need your help.

thank you in advance

EDIT :

for the moment I chose to do it like this:

<?phpdefined('_JEXEC') or die('Restricted access');

if (!$this->form)
	return;

$fieldSets = $this->form->getFieldsets();
$fieldSet = $this->form->getFieldset('demandeform.form');
?>
<script>
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
	var title = localStorage.getItem('title');
	jQuery("#jform_title").val(title);
// others thinks...
});
</script>

<fieldset class="fieldsform">
	<?php
	// JForms dynamic initialization (Cook Self Service proposal)
	$fieldSet['jform_resourceId']->jdomOptions = array(
			'list' => $this->lists['fk']['resourceId']
		);
	$fieldSet['jform_Chambre']->jdomOptions = array(
			'list' => $this->lists['fk']['Chambre']
		);
		?>
			<?php $field = $fieldSet['jform_title']; ?>
					<?php echo $field->label; ?>
					<?php echo $field->input; ?>
//others thinks...
</fieldset>
</script>

But i don't know if it is protected. For sure that's work
Other Idea without localStorage ??

localStorage is a webstorage, you can only acces it via javascript.
So, there is no way of getting it in the model, the path you choose is therefore correct.

For the jquery stuff: the select box in Cook is a chosen select. You can change it in jquery like this:

        $('#adminForm').find("input[name='jform[resourceId]']").val(value);
        $('#adminForm').find("select[name='jform[resourceId]']").val(value);
        $('select').trigger("chosen:updated");
        //old way of updating
        $('select').trigger("liszt:updated");

Hello !

apologies for the answer delay. I was on holiday
everything works perfectly with your method.
thanks again

Is there a way to make a modification on the table without going through the form? something like Ajax post

$.ajax({
     url: 'index.php?option=com_mycomponent&task=component.save',
     data: 'title='+ event.title+'&start='+ start +'&end='+ end +'&id='+ event.id ,
     type: "POST",
     success: function(json) {
     alert("modified");
     }
});

thx a lot

Sure you can

            jQuery.ajax({
                type: "POST",
                url: "index.php?option=com_mycomponent&task=component.save",
                data: '<?php echo JSession::getFormToken()?>=1&title='+ event.title+'&start='+ start +'&end='+ end +'&id='+ event.id
                 });

You need to get the getFormToken in there.
If you need to know the result, you need to fork the controller, create a new function like "update" or so.
Then

	public function update($key = null, $urlVar = null)
	{
		JSession::checkToken() or JSession::checkToken('get') or jexit(JText::_('JINVALID_TOKEN'));
                $jinput = JFactory::getApplication()->input;
                $title = $jinput->get('title','','string');
                //here the rest of your inputs
		$result = new stdClass;
                $r = false;
                //you can do what you want here with adding properties to $result
                $result->status = $r;
                //echo the result
                echo json_encode($result);
                //important! Will otherwise put the html the repsonse
                exit;
         }

You the script call a bit different:

            jQuery.ajax({
                type: "POST",
                url: "index.php?option=ccom_mycomponent&task=component.update",
                data: '<?php echo JSession::getFormToken()?>=1&title='+ event.title+'&start='+ start +'&end='+ end +'&id='+ event.id,
                cache: false,
                success: function(r){
                    //parse the json
                    r = jQuery.parseJSON(r);
  		    if (r.status == false) {
			//do something when false
		    } else {
                       //yeah, all went well!
		    }
                } 
            });

Hello Romkabouter.
I'm trying to understand your code. but I don't understand how the controller can save the update on the database without something like :

$query->update($db->quoteName('#__litsupp_demandes'))->set($fields)->where(event_id)

for the moment I copied the code into the controller <fork / controllers / demande.php> but it does not seem to work.
The code I did on my page works fine but I do not know or send the result to edit the record:

eventDrop: function(event, delta, revertFunc, resource) {
			start = event.start.format("Y-MM-D HH:mm:ss");
			end = event.end.format("Y-MM-D HH:mm:ss");
			resource = event.resourceId;
			jQuery.ajax({
                type: "POST",
                url: "<?php echo JUri::base(); ?>index.php?option=com_litsupp&task=component.save",
                data: '<?php echo JSession::getFormToken()?>=1&start='+ start +'&end='+ end +'&resource='+ resource +'&id='+ event.id,
                cache: false,
                success: function(data){
                     //reload the page after update event on database
                    //alert("that's ok");
		},

why can not we use the component.save that already exists in the component for forms?

thx

Better to save data via the model
In your call, you give id as param, you can use that to save the model

public function update($key = null, $urlVar = null)
{
    JSession::checkToken() or JSession::checkToken('get') or jexit(JText::_('JINVALID_TOKEN'));
    $jinput = JFactory::getApplication()->input;
    $id = $jinput->get('id','','int');
    $resource = $jinput->get('resource','','int');
    $r = false;
    if ($id > 0) {
        $r = $model->save(array(
            'id' => $id,
            'resource' => $resource
        ));
        $r = true;
    }			
    $result->status = $r;
    $result->row = $id;
    echo json_encode($result);
    exit;		
}

You can use $model, because you are in the controller, it will be available there.
You have to put the info you need returned in $result, in my example $result->row will be your id which you have given as a parameter.

Then, in your ajax call (using your snippet)

eventDrop: function(event, delta, revertFunc, resource) {
			start = event.start.format("Y-MM-D HH:mm:ss");
			end = event.end.format("Y-MM-D HH:mm:ss");
			resource = event.resourceId;
			jQuery.ajax({
                type: "POST",
                url: "<?php echo JUri::base(); ?>index.php?option=com_litsupp&task=component.save",
                data: '<?php echo JSession::getFormToken()?>=1&start='+ start +'&end='+ end +'&resource='+ resource +'&id='+ event.id,
                cache: false,
                success: function(data){
                     //reload the page after update event on database
                    //alert("that's ok");
                    result = jQuery.parseJSON(data);
                    console.log(r);
		},

Console.log will log the result, should also have a property row, holding the ID
Please update what console.log outputs

After that, you can use the info to update elements on your page via Jquery

Why a different controller task?
Because you need a raw json output accomplished by "exit", which stops processing the rest of the controller and thus just echoing the json data.
The save function cannot be modified, because then you can not save the data via the form anymore (because of the exit)

I do not understand ...
I'm really not good, sorry.

The log returns "null" and nothing is registered in the database.

Here is what I did

In my controller : <fork / controllers / demande.php>

public function update($key = null, $urlVar = null)
	{
		JSession::checkToken() or JSession::checkToken('get') or jexit(JText::_('JINVALID_TOKEN'));
		$jinput = JFactory::getApplication()->input;
		$id = $jinput->get('id','','int');
		$start = $jinput->get('start','','string');
		$end = $jinput->get('end','','string');
		$resource = $jinput->get('resource','','int');
		$r = false;
		if ($id > 0) {
			$r = $model->save(array(
				'id' => $id,
				'start' => $start,
				'end' => $end,
				'resource' => $resource
			));
			$r = true;
		}			
		$result->status = $r;
		$result->row = $id;
		echo json_encode($result);
		exit;		
	}

and in my view : <fork/views/demandes/tmpl/default.php> :

eventDrop: function(event, delta, revertFunc, resource) {
			start = event.start.format("Y-MM-D HH:mm:ss");
			end = event.end.format("Y-MM-D HH:mm:ss");
			resource = event.resourceId;
			jQuery.ajax({
                type: "POST",
                url: "<?php echo JUri::base(); ?>index.php?option=com_litsupp&task=demande.update",
                data: '<?php echo JSession::getFormToken()?>=1&start='+ start +'&end='+ end +'&resource='+ resource +'&id='+ event.id,
                cache: false,
				success: function(data){
                    result = jQuery.parseJSON(data);
                    console.log(result);
				} 
			});
		}

i keep looking about that ...

Well, no 500 error so that is good news.
I see some problems, first change
$id = $jinput->get('id','','int');
to
$id = $jinput->get('id',0,'int');
My mistake.

Then, try console.log (data), that is the raw data. The return might actually return an error or something.
jsonParse will not work then.

If you still have problems, break it further down by removing all code except the result.
Something like

public function update($key = null, $urlVar = null)
	{
		$r = false;
		$result->status = $r;
		echo json_encode($result);
		exit;		
	}

yes my mistake is that i forget to call the "controller.update" like "demande.update" ....

console.log(data) return nothing. there is no message 'null' in the console

	}

It's the same probleme, nothing appens in the console.log and there is no error. i tried with an alert instead but there is nothing in my alert ....

should my event register at the same time normally? cause that's don't work too

Or do a console.log('test'); before start = event.start.format("Y-MM-D HH:mm:ss"); to see if your code is even called. Got any script errors maybe?

eventDrop: function(event, delta, revertFunc, resource) {
			start = event.start.format("Y-MM-D HH:mm:ss"); //return start date of droped event (verified)

				}

after many tests, my code above don't return the data .... and i don't know why ....

the function is triggered when I move an event on the calendar.
I would like the new start date and the new end date to be changed on the database ...
my variables 'start', 'end', 'resourceId' exist and are verified.
but I cant even return them on my ajax data....
