Introduction
Reportnet 3 includes a web forms framework that data custodians can use to design Web Forms on data set schema’s.
How to configure a Webform
Webforms are based on a JSON-configuration file that is then uploaded onto the Reportnet 3 platform.
Dataset schema design
The initial configuration of our webform is specified in a json file. In this file you will see the scheme that will be configured in the webform referring to the different tables and fields. It also includes labels that are shown in the webform, such as tooltips or descriptions, and some extra properties as references to other tables or other fields, which we will have to take into account for their correct operation.
As we can see in the Figure 1, in this Json file we would have the name of the table to create [A] , the fields [B] to include on this table, if this field is marked as primary key or not [C], the tooltip [D] that we are going to see with a brief, informative message that appears when a user through a mouse-hover gesture on the field, if we have some dependency [F] which performs different actions such as, for example, hide a field based on another attribute and its value, etc..
