Repeat Size

    Hello, I am using repeat on a component. I wonder if there is a simple way to save the size of repeating components into a variable without the use of custom code. Thank you.

    Also the repeating formula is filtered so it's not the same size as from API.

    By size do you mean like min-width/height type of thing?
  • You could probably use style variables for it

    Hey @Lucas G, thanks. Sorry, I meant length of objects in a repeating array. I write size because Toddle is using size in the formula.

    What are you trying to accomplish?
  • If you want a specific amount of items from an array then you could use the Take node and specify the number you need

    @Lucas G Let me try to explain differently. So I have an API, which I use to repeat components based on the objects in an array. That repeating formula contains a filter, that changes the repeating array based on the query params. All I want is to get the length of that repeating array and save it to a variable.

    Do you mean you want to know how many repeated items you'll have as a result of the filter? Have you checked the Size formula?

    That's right. I wanted to use size, but where?

    You'd just use the Size node with your filtered data as the input

    If you need to know the size without changing the repeated array simply create a new variable or a custom formula and connect the array and the size node as Lucas has pointed out

    Thanks. So what I did is create a new custom formula and then copied the whole repeated array formula and added size at the end. I know about this, but I was hoping there was something that could be done directly on the component. However, as long as it works, it's fine.

    Here is an example to set a style variable to a % width so all items have the same width inline using the Size node

    Also, it can get messy to copy paste complex formulas, would suggest creating a custom formula and just use that on both sides for simplifications + if you make changes in the future, those will be applied everywhere the formula is used

    Yes, I will go in this direction. The formula is so large that the lines connecting nodes stopped showing😄

    Might need to split that formula into chunks if it is that large
  • That would be an insanely big formula
  • I need a screenshot lol

    omg, you may also use a Size node to count the conditionals there 😜
