Set list view

This example demonstrates how to change the file list display mode in DocSpace using the JavaScript SDK.

Before you start​

Please make sure you are using a server environment to run the HTML file because the JavaScript SDK must be launched on the server. You need to add the URL of your server's root directory to the Developer Tools section of DocSpace.

Full example
<!-- Step 1: HTML Setup -->
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8" />
    <title>Set List View</title>

    <!-- Replace with your actual portal URL -->
    <script src="{PORTAL_SRC}/static/scripts/sdk/1.0.1/api.js"></script>

    <style>
      #button {
        position: fixed;
        bottom: 20px;
        left: 50%;
        transform: translateX(-50%);
        background-color: #007bff;
        color: white;
        font-size: 16px;
        padding: 10px 20px;
        border: none;
        border-radius: 6px;
        cursor: pointer;
      }
    </style>
  </head>

  <body>
    <!-- SDK iframe -->
    <iframe id="ds-frame"></iframe>

    <!-- Trigger Button -->
    <button id="button">Set List View</button>
  </body>

  <!-- Step 2: JavaScript SDK Logic -->
  <script>
    function onAppReady() {
      const frame = DocSpace.SDK.frames["ds-frame"];
      console.log(frame);
      document.getElementById("button").onclick = () => {
        docSpace.setListView(1);
      };
    }

    const config = {
      frameId: "ds-frame",
      width: "100%",
      height: "700px",
      events: {
        onAppReady,
      },
    };

    const docSpace = DocSpace.SDK.initManager(config);
  </script>
</html>

Step 1. Set HTML structure​

Create an HTML page with a button and an embedded DocSpace frame.

<!-- Step 1: HTML Setup -->
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8" />
    <title>Set List View</title>

    <!-- Replace with your actual portal URL -->
    <script src="{PORTAL_SRC}/static/scripts/sdk/1.0.1/api.js"></script>

    <style>
      #button {
        position: fixed;
        bottom: 20px;
        left: 50%;
        transform: translateX(-50%);
        background-color: #007bff;
        color: white;
        font-size: 16px;
        padding: 10px 20px;
        border: none;
        border-radius: 6px;
        cursor: pointer;
      }
    </style>
  </head>

  <body>
    <!-- SDK iframe -->
    <iframe id="ds-frame"></iframe>

    <!-- Trigger Button -->
    <button id="button">Set List View</button>
  </body>
</html>
info

The API JavaScript file can normally be found in the following DocSpace folder: {PORTAL_SRC}/static/scripts/sdk/1.0.1/api.js where {PORTAL_SRC} is the name of the server with the ONLYOFFICE DocSpace installed.

Step 2. JavaScript SDK logic​

Use the setListView() method to toggle the document list layout. The parameter 1 sets the list view mode.

function onAppReady() {
  const frame = DocSpace.SDK.frames["ds-frame"];
  console.log(frame);
  document.getElementById("button").onclick = () => {
    docSpace.setListView(1);
  };
}

const config = {
  frameId: "ds-frame",
  width: "100%",
  height: "700px",
  events: {
    onAppReady,
  },
};

const docSpace = DocSpace.SDK.initManager(config);
