Lesson 4: List All Customer Profiles on the UI

The app UI is powered by React Spectrum by default. To learn more about React Spectrum, please consult the React Spectrum Code Lab.

In the previous lesson, customer profiles were loaded to the front end only when you click the "Invoke" button. Now we want the profiles loaded automatically on the Home page when the page is ready, with no human interaction.

We will use the componentWillMount method to initiate loading profiles, and store the loaded data in profiles parameter of the component's state. We use <Flex> and <Grid> from React Spectrum to lay out spectrum components on the page. Each entry of the customer profiles returned by the get-profiles action is displayed with first name, last name, and email of the customer. You may also apply CSS styling in the index.css file to improve its appearance.

Below is the complete code of Home.js:

import React from 'react'
import PropTypes from 'prop-types'
import { Flex, Grid, ProgressCircle, Heading, Text, View } from '@adobe/react-spectrum'
import actions from '../config.json'
import actionWebInvoke from '../utils'

class Home extends React.Component {
  constructor (props) {
    super(props)

    this.state = {
      actionResponseError: null,
      actionInvokeInProgress: false,
      profiles: null
    }
  }

  async componentWillMount () {
    this.setState({ actionInvokeInProgress: true })

    const headers = {}
    const params = {}

    // set the authorization header and org from the ims props object
    if (this.props.ims.token && !headers.authorization) {
      headers.authorization = 'Bearer ' + this.props.ims.token
    }
    if (this.props.ims.org && !headers['x-gw-ims-org-id']) {
      headers['x-gw-ims-org-id'] = this.props.ims.org
    }
    try {
      const actionResponse = await actionWebInvoke(actions['get-profiles'], headers, params)
      this.setState({ profiles: actionResponse.body.content, actionResponseError: null, actionInvokeInProgress: false })
      console.log(`action response:`, actionResponse)
    } catch (e) {
      console.error(e)
      this.setState({ profiles: null, actionResponseError: e.message, actionInvokeInProgress: false })
    }
  }

  render () {
    const profiles = this.state.profiles
    console.log(`profiles object:`, profiles)
    return (
      <View>
        <Heading level={1}>Customer Profiles</Heading>
        <Flex UNSAFE_className='profiles'>
          <ProgressCircle
                UNSAFE_className='actions-invoke-progress'
                aria-label='loading'
                isIndeterminate
                isHidden={ !this.state.actionInvokeInProgress }/>
          { !!profiles &&
            <Grid>
              {profiles.map((profile, i) => {
                return <Flex UNSAFE_className='profile'>Name: { profile['firstName'] } { profile['lastName'] } - Email: { profile['email'] } - Date of birth: { profile['birthDate'] }</Flex>
              })}

            </Grid>
          }
          { !profiles &&
            <Text>No profiles!</Text>
          }
        </Flex>
      </View>
    )
  }
}

Note: For simplicity, we are displaying only the first page of the result. In a real environment with hundreds of profiles, results are returned in batches, so you will need to handle pagination of data accordingly.

The Home component above requires the ims object in its propTypes to get the IMS context for calling the back-end actions, including the access token and org ID. This object is passed from the App component, so it has to be updated accordingly in the App.js file.

Copy
<Home ims={props.ims} />

<Home ims={props.ims} />

Since your app is already running because you ran aio app run in the previous lesson, you can see the updated UI by refreshing the webpage at https://experience.adobe.com/?devMode=true#/apps/?localDevUrl=https://localhost:9080.
