How to re-render the "record view" of a quote after a background processing triggered by a button ?

You basically want to refresh the related QLIs

I am not sure if Quotes is different but I have a custom module and when something changes in one subpanel I want to refresh the collection in another subpanel.

To do this I use the controller and trigger a refresh when needed (there is a process not seen here that deletes some Product Detail records when the Product is deleted).

The refresh function looks like this:

  refreshDetails: function() {
    //refreshes ProductDetails subpanel after an item is deleted from the Products Subpanel.
    var parentContract = this.context.parent.get('model'),
        detailsLink='wcont_wolframcontractpdetails_wcont_wolframcontracts',
        contractDetailsCollection = parentContract.getRelatedCollection(detailsLink);
    contractDetailsCollection.fetch({relate:true});
  },

In short: I get the parent, get the related collection I want to refresh and trigger another fetch on that collection. The system takes care of the re-render when the fetch is triggered.

Hope this works for your scenario.

Hi Francesca Shiekh ,

we gonna try this and give you a feedback. But it seems good.

Hi,

thanks this might work for other modules. But initialy we asked this question to find a workaround with the bug of the "extra-info" layout in Quotes (where bundles and products are showed) when fetching the collection it does not "refresh" the view but only add again the bundles resulting on having multiple duplicates displayed.

we succeeded to get around by disposing the bundles components before sugar displays the new ones. The trigger in our context is when we change a specific field that is only changed just before save. At this point we do this :

this.layout.getComponent('extra-info').getComponent('quote-data-list-groups').groupIds.forEach(
function(grpId,index){
    var grp = this.layout.getComponent('extra-info').getComponent('quote-data-list-groups')._getComponentByGroupId(grpId);
    if(grp !== undefined) {
        grp.dispose();
    }
}
,this);

you may want to adapt/optimize if this operation is to be done many times before changing view because I noticed the disposed components are still referenced in the layout, making it a possible memory leak issue.

I was thinking about this some more, and to refresh the whole quote you should be able to just do a simple this.model.fetch() if you are in the quote controller or get the parent quote model and then fetch it.

var parent = this.context.get("parentModel");
parent.fetch();
