[Salesforce] The create Task Button

[mrefaat]

The create Task on toolbar doesn’t fire the on Add event
so when we use it to create a task it's not created in the database
we can only create it if we pressed on the enter key
you can use this project to test "Test For Create Task2"

How can we review the code you used in Save btn handler of your custom "Add Task" popup?

[mrefaat]

This is the code

async onAddTaskClick() {
        const
            { gantt } = this,
            added = gantt.taskStore.rootNode.appendChild({ 
                name : 'New task', 
                duration : 1, 
                effort : gantt.project.hoursPerDay,
                shcedulingMode : 'Normal',
                calendar : 'general',
            });

    // run propagation to calculate new task fields
    await gantt.project.propagate();
    // scroll to the added task
    await gantt.scrollRowIntoView(added);

    gantt.features.cellEdit.startEditing({
        record : added,
        field  : 'name'
    });
}

You can find the code in the GanttToolbar.js under the lib folder in the lwc named tasksGantt

I tested this code and I see add event is triggered on taskStore of Gantt.
I checked your video second time, I can't get why do you think the problem you faced caused by not triggered add event.
Could you please subscribe on add event and log into console?

[mrefaat]

i'm already subscribing to add event on the task store

this.gantt.taskStore.on('add', ({ source, records, allRecords, parent, index, oldIndex, isChild, isExpand, isMove }) => { 
            if(! isExpand) {  //if(!isExpand && !isMove) //isMove || 
                let allTasks = this.getFlatTasks(records);
                for(let record  of allTasks){
                    if(!this.isSalesforceId(record.id)){
                        this.isInserting = true;
                        let task = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(record));
                        task.wbs = record.wbsCode;
                        task.id = null;
                        task.successors = null;
                        task.generateInvoice = task.generateInvoice == undefined ? false : task.generateInvoice;
                        task.stopTimeEntry = task.stopTimeEntry == undefined ? false : task.stopTimeEntry;
                        task.costAdjustment = task.costAdjustment == null?0:task.costAdjustment;
                        task.revenueAdjustment = task.revenueAdjustment == null ? 0 : task.revenueAdjustment;
                        task.percentDone = task.percentDone == null ? 0 : task.percentDone;                      

                        task.duration = task.duration == null ? 0 : task.duration;
                        task.effort = task.effort == null ? 0 : task.effort;
                        task.readOnly = false;
                        task.baselines = null;
                        task.predecessors = null;
                        task.children = null;
                        this.mpaTasks2Insert.set(record.id, task);
                    }
                }                

            }       

        });

I can assure you that add event is definitely triggered on the store. Check the way you fill the map and clear it. Check your conditions. Use loggers to better understand the flow.

Hi Maxim,

i'm sorry to tell you that the event is not triggered.

i added a console.log on the first line of the code and it's not writing it
Line 411

this.gantt.taskStore.on('add', ({ source, records, allRecords, parent, index, oldIndex, isChild, isExpand, isMove }) => { 
            console.log('on add');      

            if(! isExpand) {  //if(!isExpand && !isMove) //isMove || 
         

[mrefaat]

i can now see the on add event being triggered, but it's throwing a strange error " [Invalid revisions chain]"

[mrefaat]

In General the gantt is throwing this error

VM39329:72 Uncaught (in promise) Error: Unknown identifier Ll.$.assignmentsByCalendar

While in this project the on add event is not being triggered
https://klenka5-dev-ed.develop.lightning.force.com/lightning/r/cwproject360__Project__c/a01d20000056wzJAAQ/view

It's kind of a random behavior
