Numeric class
📖 Description
The Numeric class defines a slot that can hold a floating-point number. It is derived from the Slot class.
🗃️ Fields
🏷️ actionable
Sets or retrieves if the slot is actionable. When set to true the slot will be included in the actionables export function.
When set to true, the default value for the exportable property will be false. If you want to make a slot both actionable and exportable, you should set both properties to true.
More information about actionable data can be found here.
Type
boolean
🏷️ alias
Sets or retrieves the slot alias. This alias is used to identify the slot in the dataset of a form. The alias is, for example, used in the NVPs and CSV export functions.
When prefilling (or importing data into) forms the alias can be used to easily specify the right data for the right slot.
Type
string
🏷️ decimal
Sets or retrieves the decimal sign.
Type
string
🏷️ default
Sets or retrieves the default value. This default value will be used when there is no explicit value set for a slot or when the slot value is cleared.
Type
number
🏷️ digits
Sets or retrieves the number of digits.
Type
number
🏷️ exportable
Sets or retrieves if the slot is exportable. When set to true, the slot will be included in the exportables export function.
This property defaults to true when the exportable property is omitted, and the actionable property is either set to false or omitted as well.
More information about exportable data can be found here.
Type
boolean
🏷️ id
Retrieves the identifier of the slot.
Type
string
🏷️ kind
Retrieves the slot kind.
Type
"static" | "dynamic" | "feature" | "meta"
🏷️ label
Sets or retrieves the (localized) label for the slot. This label is often a description of the kind of data the slot holds. For example, Text for a text input block. When a block has multiple slots, the label is used to distinguish the different slots.
Type
string
🏷️ maximum
Sets or retrieves a maximum value.
Type
number
🏷️ minimum
Sets or retrieves a mimimum value.
Type
number
🏷️ minus
Sets or retrieves the minus sign.
Type
string
🏷️ name
Sets or retrieves the slot name.
For dynamic slots, this name is often the same as the name of the item for which the slot is intended.
Type
string
🏷️ pipeable
Sets or retrieves if the slot is pipeable. Piping is the process of recalling slot values in (markdown) text in the form. There are three possible values:
true: Slot can be used as piping value (this is the default behavior);false: Slot cannot be used as piping value;- Or a custom configuration to instruct Tripetto how to recall the slot.
To simply enable or disable piping for the slot (based on the slot value), supply a boolean value. If you need more control over the pipe, you can supply an object with a more specific configuration.
Type
boolean | {
/* Optional name for the pipe. This is used to group slot values that have the same pipe name. */
pipe?: string;
/* Optional localized label for the pipe. */
label?: string;
/* Optional alias for the pipe. */
alias?: string;
/*
* Specifies the field or content that should be used as the data that goes
* into the pipe. It can be one of the following values:
* - `value`: Use the current string value of the slot (this is the default behavior);
* - `label`: Use the slot label;
* - `name`: Use the name of the slot;
* - Custom configuration to supply the data that goes into the pipe.
*/
content?: "value" | "label" | "name" | {
/* Contains the content as a string without any markup or variables. */
string: string;
/* Contains the content as text with support for variables. */
text?: string;
/* Contains markdown content with support for basic formatting, hyperlinks, and variables. */
markdown?: string;
};
/*
* Specifies the name of a legacy pipe. Only here for backward compatibility. Do not use.
