Passing a getResource parameter in a chunk

[kenzuniga]

Summary

I’m getting a snippet and a chunk, the chunk contains a getResources in which the &parents parameter (pops) should be set when calling the chunk.

Step to reproduce

1. Getting the snippet and the chunk:

[[!webinarIndexModule? &tpl=`upcomingWebinars` &pops=`77583`]]

Note: webinarIndexModule is a small snippet that simply sets the number of columns based on a TV. It has nothing to do with the getResources code.

2. This is the getResources in the (upcomingWebinars) chunk:

        [[!getResources?
        &parents= `[[+pops]]`
        &limit= `[[+limit]]`
        &tpl= `webinarFlexCard`
        &includeTVs= `1`
        &processTVs= `1`
        &tvPrefix=``
        &sortbyTV= `eventStart`
        &sortdirTV= `ASC`
        &includeContent= `0`
        &tvFilters= `eventStart>>[[!getDate]],eventStart!==`]]

Observed behavior

The &pops value (77583) is not being passed.

Everything works fine if I hardcode the &parents ID number in the getResources but it should be automated to pull content from multiple places.

Expected behavior

The &parents in getResources should be set to 77583

Environment

MODX Revolution 2.8.1

whats the code of that webinarIndexModule snippet?

[kenzuniga]

Bruno, the webinarIndexModule is a small snippet that simply sets the number of columns based on a TV. It has nothing to do with the getResources code. By the way, everything works fine if I hardcode the &parents ID number in the getResources but it should be automated to pull content from multiple places.

you need to pass the pops scriptProperty to the getChunk method within the webinarIndexModule snippet.
If I would see the snippet code, I could say, how exactly in that case.

I see, thank you Bruno. Here’s the webinarIndexModule snippet code:

<?php
// error_reporting(E_ALL);

$output = '';
$tvname = $modx->getOption('tvname', $scriptProperties, '');
$tpl = $modx->getOption('tpl', $scriptProperties, '');

$sectionOptions = $modx->fromJSON($modx->resource->getTVValue($tvname));

// Build flexcard
if (isset($sectionOptions[0])) {
    for ($i = 0; $i <= ($sectionOptions[0]['sectionColumns'] - 1); $i++) {
        $flexGrids[] = $modx->getChunk('htmlElement', [
            'output' => "",
            'element' => 'div',
            'attr' => 'class="new-flexcard"'
        ]);
    }

    $output .= $modx->getChunk($tpl, [
        'index-title' => $sectionOptions[0]['sectionTitle'],
        'flexgrid-cols' => $sectionOptions[0]['sectionColumns'],
        'limit' => $sectionOptions[0]['sectionLimit'],
        'flexGrids' => implode("", $flexGrids),
    ]);
}

return $output;

You can try:

    $output .= $modx->getChunk($tpl, array_merge($scriptProperties,[
        'index-title' => $sectionOptions[0]['sectionTitle'],
        'flexgrid-cols' => $sectionOptions[0]['sectionColumns'],
        'limit' => $sectionOptions[0]['sectionLimit'],
        'flexGrids' => implode("", $flexGrids),
    ]));

This should pass all scriptProperties

Thank you very much Bruno! Your solution works perfectly fine.
