ajaxButton not working when using Lift Wiring

My goal is to have text displayed normally on initial load, but when an 'Edit' button is pressed, the text changes to be an input text box. The html is this:

<div class="user">
    <div>
        <span>Edit</span><lift:WiredUser.edit />
    </div>
    <div class="details">
        <lift:WiredUser.email />
    </div>
</div>

My wiring class looks like so:

class WiredUser {

  val userToWire = (Users.userForDisplay or userDetail.currentValue).get

  private object User {
    val entity = ValueCell(userToWire)
    val edit = ValueCell(false)
    val email = edit.lift(b => entity.lift(_.getEmail.asScala.headOptio开发者_如何转开发n).get)
  }

  def edit = {
    WiringUI.toNode(User.edit, JqWiringSupport.fade)((mode: Boolean, ns:NodeSeq) => { Wired.editable(
      mode,
      mode,
      (b: Boolean) => ajaxButton(h("Done"), () => {User.edit.set(false); JsCmds.Noop}),
      (b: Boolean) => ajaxButton(h("Edit"),  () => {User.edit.set(true); JsCmds.Noop})
    )})
  }

  def email = WiringUI.toNode(User.email, JqWiringSupport.fade)((email: Option[String], ns: NodeSeq) => {
    Wired.editable(
      email.getOrElse(""),
      User.edit.get,
      (n: String) => ajaxText(n, s => {refresh(setEmail(_, s)); JsCmds.Noop}),
      (n: String) => h(n)
    )
  })
}

object Wired {

   def editable[T](o: T, mode: Boolean, t: (T)=> NodeSeq, f: (T) => NodeSeq) : NodeSeq = {
     mode match {
       case true => t(o)
       case false => f(o)
     }
   }
}

On initial load, there is an 'Edit' button that is displayed. When that button is pressed, an ajax call with the form data "F531904251245BAWYT:true" is executed, however the function attached to the ajax call is never executed: () => {User.edit.set(true); JsCmds.Noop} and the result is empty:

jQuery(document).ready(function() {
});

Any thoughts on what I might be missing?

Note that I have submitted this to the Lift google group without a response.

I have created a working example: https://github.com/OleTraveler/scala-wiring-example

I have faced with the same problem and I've found some solution. I created my custom version of net.liftweb.WiringUI (MyWiringUI), where I changed the following methods

  def toNode[T](in: NodeSeq, cell: Cell[T], jsEffect: (String, Boolean, JsCmd) => JsCmd)(f: (T, NodeSeq) => NodeSeq): NodeSeq = {
val myElem: Elem = in.find {
  case e: Elem => true
  case _ => false
}.map(_.asInstanceOf[Elem]).getOrElse(<span id={Helpers.nextFuncName}>{in}</span>)

val (elem: Elem, id: String) = Helpers.findOrAddId(myElem)
addJsFunc(cell, (t: T, first: Boolean) => {
  jsEffect(id, first, SetHtml(id, f(t, elem.child)))
})
f(cell.currentValue._1, elem)

}

and

  def addJsFunc[T](cell: Cell[T], f: (T, Boolean) => JsCmd) {
for {
  cometActor <- S.currentCometActor
} cell.addDependent(cometActor)

val trc = TransientRequestCell(cell)
var lastTime: Long = 0L
var lastValue: T = null.asInstanceOf[T]
for {
  sess <- S.session
} sess.addPostPageJavaScript(() => {
  val (value, ct) = trc.get
  val first = lastTime == 0L
  if (first || (ct > lastTime && value != lastValue)) {
    lastValue = value
    lastTime = ct
    if(first) Noop
    else f(value, first)
  }else{
    Noop
  }
})

}

The most important change is:

        if(first) Noop
    else f(value, first)

Thats all.
