Edit Mode For People

Now we want to edit name, surname and e-mail of people:

Edit Person

First of all, we create the necessary DTOs to transfer people's id, name, surname and e-mail. Then create the functions in PersonAppService for editing people:

        public async Task<GetPersonForEditOutput> GetPersonForEdit(IEntityDto input)
        {
            var person = await _personRepository.GetAsync(input.Id);
            return ObjectMapper.Map<GetPersonForEditOutput>(person);
        }

        public async Task EditPerson(EditPersonInput input)
        {
            var person = await _personRepository.GetAsync(input.Id);
            person.Name = input.Name;
            person.Surname = input.Surname;
            person.EmailAddress = input.EmailAddress;
            await _personRepository.UpdateAsync(person);
        }

And create mapping in CustomDtoMapper.cs:

configuration.CreateMap<Person, GetPersonForEditOutput>();

View

@using Acme.PhoneBook.People
@using Acme.PhoneBook.Web.Areas.App.Models.Common.Modals
@using Acme.PhoneBook.Web.Areas.App.Models.PhoneBook
@Html.Partial("~/Areas/App/Views/Common/Modals/_ModalHeader.cshtml", new ModalHeaderViewModel("Edit Person"))
@model EditPersonModalViewModel

<div class="modal-body">
    <form role="form" novalidate class="form-validation">

        <input type="hidden" name="Id" value="@Model.Id" />

        <div class="form-group form-md-line-input  no-hint">

        </div>
    </form>
</div>

@Html.Partial("~/Areas/App/Views/Common/Modals/_ModalFooterWithSaveAndCancel.cshtml")

View Model

using Abp.AutoMapper;
using Acme.PhoneBookDemo.PhoneBook;

namespace Acme.PhoneBook.Web.Areas.App.Models.PhoneBook
{
    [AutoMapFrom(typeof(GetPersonForEditOutput))]
    public class EditPersonModalViewModel : GetPersonForEditOutput
    {

    }
}

Scripts

Create _editPersonModal.js:

(function ($) {
        app.modals.EditPersonModal = function () {

        var _modalManager;
        var _personService = abp.services.app.person;
        var _$form = null;

        this.init = function (modalManager) {
            _modalManager = modalManager;
            personId = _modalManager.getArgs().personId;
            _$form = _modalManager.getModal().find('form');
            _$form.validate();
        };

        this.save = function () {
            if (!_$form.valid()) {
                return;
            }

            var person = _$form.serializeFormToObject();

            _modalManager.setBusy(true);
            _personService.editPerson(person).done(function () {
                _modalManager.close();
                location.reload();
            }).always(function () {
                _modalManager.setBusy(false);
            });
        };
    };
})(jQuery);

Add Those lines to index.js:

    var _editPersonModal = new app.ModalManager({
        viewUrl: abp.appPath + 'App/PhoneBook/EditPersonModal',
        scriptUrl: abp.appPath + 'view-resources/Areas/App/Views/PhoneBook/_EditPersonModal.js',
        modalClass: 'EditPersonModal'
    });

    $('#AllPeopleList button.edit-person').click(function (e) {
        e.preventDefault();
        var $listItem = $(this).closest('.list-group-item');
        var id = $listItem.data('person-id');
        _editPersonModal.open({ id: id });
    });

Add Those lines to PhoneBookController.cs:

        public async Task<PartialViewResult> EditPersonModal(int id)
        {
            var output = await _personAppService.GetPersonForEdit(new EntityDto { Id = id });
            var viewModel = ObjectMapper.MapTo<EditPersonModalViewModel>(output);

            return PartialView("_EditPersonModal", viewModel);
        }
