battk
10/03/2021, 1:47 AMput in the full path to react.js in your define statement
battk
10/03/2021, 1:48 AMotherwise use a require Configuration
k
kwood
10/03/2021, 1:49 AMAh ok I tried using the relative path and copied it to the same directory as my react app and sure enough the IDE doesn't see it as a valid NetSuite module
kwood
10/03/2021, 1:50 AMugh, what a headache. I just wanted to make this interface more useful than the standard suitelet list
b
battk
10/03/2021, 1:50 AMreact is for browser side usage, so at the very least you need to put your define's there
battk
10/03/2021, 1:50 AMyou would not actually put it in the suitelet script
k
kwood
10/03/2021, 1:50 AMyeah it's being called from my client script at the moment
kwood
10/03/2021, 1:51 AMthe suitelet just defines which client script it's using
b
battk
10/03/2021, 1:54 AMmore normal is writing everything in react and using the html it generated as the output of your suitelet
k
kwood
10/03/2021, 1:54 AMYeah that's how I've got it
kwood
10/03/2021, 1:54 AMSuitelet contains a div which gets replaced by the react content
kwood
10/03/2021, 1:54 AMSuitelet has a regular client script that calls the react app
kwood
10/03/2021, 1:54 AMIs that not what you mean?
b
battk
10/03/2021, 1:55 AMas in you do nothing or close to nothing using serverWidget
k
kwood
10/03/2021, 1:55 AMRight, the suitelet just displays the container div for all the stuff that goes on in react
b
battk
10/03/2021, 1:56 AMas in use ServerResponse.write to write the entire html page
battk
10/03/2021, 1:57 AMor minimal serverwidget, which involves using an inline html field whose default value is your entire html page
k
kwood
10/03/2021, 2:02 AMOooh that does sound better
kwood
10/03/2021, 2:02 AMthen just use vanilla react instead of NetSuite's modules from the client script?
b
battk
10/03/2021, 2:04 AMhonestly it depends what you want
battk
10/03/2021, 2:05 AMif you want everything react, then the two options I gave are ideal
battk
10/03/2021, 2:06 AMif you want partly react, partly serverWidget, then the inline html field is an option
battk
10/03/2021, 2:06 AMthe other option is client script, which sounds like what you are attempting
battk
10/03/2021, 2:06 AMI can tell you that all 3 can work

10/03/2021, 2:07 AMWe are nearing the end of implementation and there's functionality in their legacy system that they need duplicated in NetSuite. Namely they need a search dialog of bills and their payments to send to the bank in XML format. The problem is the native suitelet list functionality is very limited. The AP team needs to be able to filter by vendor and date, then select the bills they want included and click a button to generate the XML file.
kwood
10/03/2021, 2:08 AMI can't get the native suitelet functionality to be that interactive
kwood
10/03/2021, 2:08 AMWhich reminded me that I'd done similar in react before
kwood
10/03/2021, 2:08 AMI just don't remember how I set it up from scratch. 😣
kwood
10/03/2021, 2:10 AMI guess what I'm looking for is any generic suitelet with a react client script that I can use as a basis to add the rest of the functionality.
kwood
10/03/2021, 2:12 AMI'd be happy if I could get a hello world to display at this point
b
battk
10/03/2021, 2:13 AMwhat does the client script look like
k
kwood
10/03/2021, 2:20 AMAt the moment it just calls the react script no more no less, then logs "hello world"
kwood
10/03/2021, 2:20 AMit dies before it gets to the hello world. I'm just commenting things out one line at a time until it runs now
kwood
10/03/2021, 2:22 AMI got the react script to log the hello world!
kwood
10/03/2021, 2:22 AM😄
kwood
10/03/2021, 2:22 AMNow to add in components as needed
kwood
10/03/2021, 2:22 AMI guess I just talked a lot in here for nothing
kwood
10/03/2021, 2:22 AMthank you for helping though. 🙂
kwood
10/03/2021, 2:22 AMIt at least gave me a better idea of where to look

10/03/2021, 5:00 PMThe native Netsuite suitelet can do what you need. You will need 2 buttons one of which is the standard submit which will trigger a POST to filter a sublist of records populated by a saved search using 3 fields, one for your vendor list and 2 for your date range. And then you will need a checkbox field for each record row on the filtered sublist. Your custom client-side button will then trigger the rest of your process after collecting the internal id of each record selected via the checkbox.

10/03/2021, 11:54 PMI'd still like to use react/redux if possible because I'd like to add more functionality in the future that it would go well with. The hard part is just getting it playing nice with NetSuite.
kwood
10/03/2021, 11:56 PMI've got it working with react now but it still doesn't see the functions within redux
kwood
10/03/2021, 11:56 PMMaybe it's my transpiler
kwood
10/04/2021, 2:06 AMI've resolved all issues. All I had to do is use the HITC tools and it worked flawlessly first try.
