HANA Cloud Portal widget creation using SAPUI5

379 views Asked by At

I'm trying to create two widgets that use <sap-context> feature for HANA Cloud Portal using SAPUI5 framework.

The problem is that I cannot find any tutorials/examples of using mvc model for widget creation. Every example I have found till now uses SAPUI5 inside <script> tag in html file as if it's jquery or javascript.

Is it possible at all to create widgets using mvc model at all? If it is, links for examples/tutorials would help me alot.

NB:

As a matter of fact, I did try to use mvc model, but when I try to call a function using the following syntax:

sap.ui.getCore().byId('<view-name-here>').getController().publish("<key-name-here>", "<value-here>");

I get Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'getController' of undefined error. I'm not sure what causes this error - is it a flaw in my code or the fact that there is no 'core' if I don't build SAPUI5 application... (I'm still new to this SAPUI5 thing)

Thank you.
