Bulk Manager

Perform actions on multiple records straight from the GridField. Comes with unlink, delete and bulk editing. You can also easily create/add your own.

Usage

Simply add component to your GridFieldConfig

$config->addComponent(new \Colymba\BulkManager\BulkManager());

Configuration

The component's options can be configurated individually or in bulk through the 'config' functions like this:

$config->getComponentByType('Colymba\\BulkManager\\BulkManager')->setConfig($reference, $value);

$config overview

The available configuration options are:

'editableFields' : array of string referencing specific CMS fields available for editing

Custom actions

You can remove or add individual action or replace them all via addBulkAction() and removeBulkAction()

Adding a custom action

To add a custom bulk action to the list use:

$config
    ->getComponentByType('Colymba\\BulkManager\\BulkManager')
    ->addBulkAction('Namespace\\ClassName')

Custom action handler

When creating your own bulk action RequestHandler, you should extend Colymba\BulkManager\BulkAction\Handler which will expose 2 useful functions getRecordIDList() and getRecords() returning either an array with the selected records IDs or a DataList of the selected records.

Make sure to define the handler's $url_segment, from which the handler will be called and its relating $allowed_actions and $url_handlers. See Handler, DeleteHandler and UnlinkHandler for examples.

Front-end config

Bulk action handler's front-end configuration is set via class properties label, icon, buttonClasses, xhr and destructive. See Handler, DeleteHandler and UnlinkHandler for reference and examples.
