Hi everyone,
I'm getting crazy trying to bind a Command in order to remove an item from a grouped ListView.
My ViewModels inherit from a BaseViewModel in order to ease the notification of a changing property.
I followed the common approach that seems to be the correct one by using two ObservableCollections.
Those are my ViewModels, that are displayed correctly, but I cannot bind the RemoveCommand to each item (of type ArticleForOrdineOTIVM). I used the constructor for creating dummy objects.
I tried every sort of combination in my xaml file within Command="", for example by pointing Source reference to the listview name, but I can't make it work. It always says like i cannot reach the scope of the inner Context, but at most I can bind a command within OrderOTIVM, no further (for example the Command "TestCommand"). I need to do this because I want to remove, edit and do stuff inside each item of the list, and the error explained before says:
Binding: 'RemoveCommand' property not found on 'System.Collections.ObjectModel.ObservableCollection`1[BrScanner.ViewModels.GroupedArticlesVM]', target property: 'Xamarin.Forms.Button.Command'
In the View file I set the BindingContext as:
public partial class OrderOTIView : ContentPage { public OrderOTIView() { InitializeComponent(); OrderOTIVM orderOTIViewModel = new OrderOTIVM(); BindingContext = orderOTIViewModel; } }
These are my ViewModels:
public class OrderOTIVM : BaseViewModel { ObservableCollection<GroupedArticlesVM> _carrelliGrouped; public ObservableCollection<GroupedArticlesVM> CarrelliGrouped { get => _carrelliGrouped; set { _carrelliGrouped = value; OnPropertyChanged();} } public OrderOTIVM() { CarrelliGrouped = new ObservableCollection<GroupedArticlesVM>(); GroupedArticlesVM car1 = new GroupedArticlesVM(); car1.Carrello.Nome = "Carrello A"; CarrelliGrouped.Add(car1); GroupedArticlesVM car2 = new GroupedArticlesVM(); car2.Carrello.Nome = "Carrello B"; CarrelliGrouped.Add(car2); } public Command TestCommand { get { return new Command( (x) => { Debug.WriteLine("TestCommand"); }); } } } public class GroupedArticlesVM : ObservableCollection<ArticleForOrdineOTIVM> { CarrelloMinimarketVM _carrello; public CarrelloMinimarketVM Carrello { get => _carrello; set { _carrello = value; } } public GroupedArticlesVM() { Items.Add(new ArticleForOrdineOTIVM()); Items.Add(new ArticleForOrdineOTIVM()); Items.Add(new ArticleForOrdineOTIVM()); Items.Add(new ArticleForOrdineOTIVM()); Carrello = new CarrelloMinimarketVM(); } public Command<ArticleForOrdineOTIVM> RemoveCommand { get { return new Command<ArticleForOrdineOTIVM>( (articolo)=>{ Items.Remove(articolo); }); } } } public class CarrelloMinimarketVM : BaseViewModel { string _nome; public CarrelloMinimarketVM() { this.Nome = "CARRELLO"; } public string Nome { get => _nome; set { _nome = value; OnPropertyChanged(); } } } public class ArticleForOrdineOTIVM : BaseViewModel { string _oarti; string _tarti; int _amount; public string Oarti { get => _oarti; set { _oarti = value; OnPropertyChanged(); } } public string Tarti { get => _tarti; set { _tarti = value; OnPropertyChanged(); } } public int Amount { get => _amount; set { _amount = value; OnPropertyChanged(); } } public ArticleForOrdineOTIVM() { this.Oarti = "Oarti blabla"; this.Tarti = "Descrizione blabla"; this.Amount = 22; } }
This is my Xaml code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <ContentPage xmlns="http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml" xmlns:d="http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms/design" xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006" mc:Ignorable="d" x:Class="BrScanner.Views.OrderOTIView" x:Name="OrderOTIPage" > <ListView x:Name="carrelliListView" ItemsSource="{Binding CarrelliGrouped}" HasUnevenRows="True" GroupDisplayBinding="{Binding Carrello.Nome}" IsGroupingEnabled="True"> <ListView.ItemTemplate> <DataTemplate> <ViewCell> <StackLayout Orientation="Horizontal" Padding="10"> <Label Text="{Binding Oarti}"/> <Label Text="{Binding Tarti}"/> <Button Text="cancella" Command="{Binding Path=BindingContext.CarrelliGrouped.RemoveCommand, Source={x:Reference Name=OrderOTIPage}}" CommandParameter="{Binding .}"/> </StackLayout> </ViewCell> </DataTemplate> </ListView.ItemTemplate> </ListView> </StackLayout> </ContentPage.Content> </ContentPage>
My BaseViewModel:
public class BaseViewModel : INotifyPropertyChanged { public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged; protected virtual void OnPropertyChanged([CallerMemberName] string propertyName = null) { PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName)); } }
Thanks for your time!
