SAPUI5: UI5’s Custom Control

We occasionally find ourselves unable to utilize the software’s built-in functionality. Not everyone fits into one size. We have these multi-million dollar projects because they match the business needs and procedures of our clients. This restriction applies to all products, regardless of whether they are made by SAP, Oracle, or another company. In a similar vein, SAPUI5 occasionally requires the creation of Custom Controls. The purpose of this article is to show how to create new controls that SAP does not provide. It’s time to take on the role of creation (SAPUI5 God).

I’ll walk you through a quick demo of how to add properties, events, and a new button that we made and used in the SAPUI5 application.

Step 1: Open the WebIDE and create an example SAPUI5 project.

Step 2: Make a Custom folder

Step 3: Make a file in JS

I’ve given it the demo name Sagar, which translates to “ocean” in Sanskrit.

Step4: Give the control name.

This will be expanded to sap/ui/core/Control at com/sampleCustom/Custom/Sagar

The characteristics, aggregates, associations, and events make up metadata. I’ve included the parameters width, height, and event hover for demo purposes.

You will write the HTML content in the renderer method, and I have bound the button’s meta properties.

I made a property text for the dynamic passing values and a hover text for the event example.

To trigger the events Make sure to add an additional line of code during render.

WriteControlData(oControl) oRm.write;

Step 5: Define a function in the controller and view using the custom control.

xmlns:Sagar=”com.sampleCustom.Custom” and the hover method “fnHover” should be noted.

Define the function fnHover as follows.

Testing Time

Continue dragging the cursor over that new control to see if the event hover is activated.

I hope it was simple for you to comprehend and apply this instruction. One of the easiest articles I’ve ever written is this one.For more in-depth and useful instructions from me, be sure to check out the part titled “More from the Author” at the conclusion of this post.
