Row index in templates

[Felipe Casanova]

Are there any variables available in a template such as the row index number? Something like ${ rowIndex } that is available automatically.

Thanks

Hello Matt,

In the newest version of the framework, widgets are using the uid field of the DataSource's Model, which represents an unique id. This identifier is available in the templates ( ${ uid } ), however it is not an auto incrementing row index number. You can find more information on that subject in the changes and backward compatibility page.

All the best,

If you are inserting rows couldn't you just pass in a row number as a parameter?

Hi Jon,

May I ask you to elaborate a bit on your question?  Do you need to pass a consecutive index (row number) to a given template instance? Can you provide a Dojo sample, which demonstrates the scenario in question?
