apostrophe-pages | pages adds page rendering to the Apostrophe content | Data Visualization library

I'm following this answer which was really useful for me to have some pre-defined widgets on newly created pages.

I need to add a column on the 'Pages' modal in the Apostrophe CMS and potentially override the existing column titles (i.e. "Link" to something a little more intuitive). The closest thing I saw in the online documentation was here: https://docs.apostrophecms.org/apostrophe/reference/modules/apostrophe-pages#contextmenu

Though, when I paste the example code into my apostrophe-pages/index.js, I don't see any change anywhere in the CMS.

Hope someone can offer any insight!

I'm interested into a method like self.play from apostrophe-widgets that permit us apply Jquery selectors without having any doubt that the selector only should be applied to the widget, thanks to $widget parameter.

What I want to obtain is the same behaviour but with apostrophe-pages, I've research into the documentation and I didn't find anything. Is there any way to replicate the same behaviour?

I let a reference to the method I'm talking about to clarify the question. https://docs.apostrophecms.org/apostrophe/modules/apostrophe-widgets#more

Thanks for your help!

I was playing with Apostrophe CMS, and tried to create a widget which gets some values from a third party API based on its settings. Is there any way I could retrieve the values of the widget inside the widget index.js? Basically when the admin creates a page, he will add a widget with some values set. And the widget behavior should change based on those settings. Is this possible at all and if it is then how?

I am trying to get the children of apostrophe pages to appear in my navigation object - however the _children array is always empty. My page does have child pages set up via the front end Pages UI.

My index.js for the lib/modules/apostrophe-pages module contains the following:

In order to have a common setup in most of my Apostrophe projects, I plan on building some custom npm-modules to bundle them and add them to my projects. Some of the features I would like to do in them, appart from adding widgets and backend functionality, is editing official apostrophe modules' setup (e.g., setting up default page types for apostrophe-pages) and overriding nunjuck blocks and/or templates.

Both things can easily be overwritten on a project-level configuration with Apostrophe's implicit subclassing mechanism, so my goal of sharing a common base setup for different projects could be achieved with a custom boilerplate, although I would lose the ability of upgrading my defaults by releasing new versions of my node modules.

All in all, I was thinking in a Maven-style dependency hierarchy like this:

Apostrophe npm modules <- custom npm modules <- project modules

Coming form a Java and Maven based CMS, I understand I will need to change my way of thinking in many things, so: is what I'm trying to do possible and does it make sense in the Apostrophe world? What would be "The Apostrophe Way" to achieve something like this? Do I need to create a custom npm module to with the moog option improve for each module I want to extend?

Thanks in advance.

I'm attempting to add a custom page, that will not be associated with a particular type of piece or other set of data. It will be used to run actions for reporting and processing/showing data, so it needs to be fairly stand-alone. I want it to be a page type, so it will be handled in navigation the same way that any other page is. I mostly have it working, but am running into an issue - no matter how I set it up, when I try to navigate to an instance of the page that gets created, it always looks for the template in lib/modules/apostrophe-pages/views/pages instead of the module folder.

In this case, I'm currently calling the module test-item (will rename once I figure out what the issue is). So, I have a folder called lib/modules/test-item, with index.js and views/index.html. I also attempted to rename the template in the views folder to show.html and test-item.html just to be sure it wasn't a naming issue. Here's how the module is configured in index.js:

This error came out on my console when I configured pieces in same database name using apos.singleton , but I managed to delete directly from DB itself using $unset method :

In Apostrophe, I have a custom module where I would like to pass an option from the Nunjucks apos.area call to the construct method of the widget itself. Concretely, I want to adjust the output of getWidgetWrapperClasses based on the options passed to the module in the template. Is this possible?

Here's an example of what I would like to achieve:
