Overview
Repeater is a component used to dynamically display and manage multiple instances of a data set or list of items. It allows you to repeat a specific set of components for each item in a collection, effectively creating a list or grid of repeated elements.
Here’s how a Repeater typically functions in noKodr:
Data Binding: The Repeater is bound to a data source, such as a list of records from a Salesforce object or an external data source.
Template Layout: You define a template layout, which could include components like text fields, images, or buttons. This template is repeated for each item in the data set.
Dynamic Rendering: The Repeater dynamically renders the repeated items for each record in the data collection, allowing users to see and interact with multiple records simultaneously.
Customizable: You can customize the appearance and behavior of the repeated items, adding actions, styles, or conditional logic as needed.
The Repeater is particularly useful for displaying lists of records, product catalogs, or any other scenario where you need to present multiple items in a consistent, repeated format within the noKodr application.
Attributes:
Attributes are the options available for each component, allowing you to customize its appearance and functionality. They help you tailor the look and behavior of your components to fit your needs.
