How can I add a custom attribute to the dialog element?

How can I add a custom attribute to the dialog element? We typically use attributes like granite:class, Id, and title. Similarly, I believe we can add custom attributes as well. This approach works for RTE.

 

        <textfieldsgroup
            granite:class="cq-RichText-FixedColumn-column"
            jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
            sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/container">
            <items jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured">
                <title
                    jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
                    sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/textfield"
                    fieldDescription="Please provide title text."
                    fieldLabel="Title" 
                    data-custom-attr1="myData"
                    data-custom-attr="100"
                    name="./title"/>
                <description
                    jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
                    sling:resourceType="cq/gui/components/authoring/dialog/richtext"
                    fieldDescription="Please enter description."
                    fieldLabel="Description"
                    name="./description"
                    useFixedInlineToolbar="{Boolean}true">
                </description>
            </items>
        </textfieldsgroup>

 

I attempted to implement the same for an input text field within a text fields group, but the attribute (

data-custom-attr and data-custom-attr1) is not available on the HTML for the input.

Hi @sateaswa94 , 

 

Thanks for help on this, If you observe the second screenshot above which I have added, you'll notice that I'm utilizing the Sling Resource Include feature. This implies that my text field group fields are part of a separate utility content component, and I'm including that group into multiple dialogs.

 

sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/include"
path="/apps/myproject/components/commonfields/content/items/textfieldsgroup"

 

I noticed that you added the text field group in the same container, and it seems to be working for you. However, if you try it that way, than I think issue will reproduceable to you as well.

 

Anyway, I found a workaround for it. I added the granite:data:


<granite:data
jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
data-length-Validation="45"/>

 

where I am including the my util content component and am able to see the attributes as expected.

Hi @Saravanan_Dharmaraj ,

No, it is not working for a text field within a text field group. @sateaswa94  it's somewhat similar to the post Saravana mentioned above. I tried that one as well, but unfortunately, it didn't work.

My dialog structure. Also remove data from the granite:data, granite also will append data to the attributes

<textfieldsgroup
jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/container">
<items jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured">
<title
jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/textfield"
fieldLabel="title"
name="./title">
<granite:data
jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
attr="100"
attr1="myData"/>
</title>
<description
jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/textfield"
fieldLabel="description"
name="./description">
<granite:data
jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
attr="100"
attr1="myData"/>
</description>
</items>
</textfieldsgroup>
