How to build a page(like projects page, app page) in private seatable server or it is possible to add webpages

2

Dear regulan,

thanks for joining the SeaTable Forum. I do not fully understand what you mean. Do you want to create a webpage with content that you add in SeaTable?

Here is an example.
https://market.seatable.cn (I know it is chinease language) is a website that show content from a SeaTable base. Every entry in a base will be shown as an element on market.seatable.cn.

This could be done with the SeaTable API. You can use any kind of programming language to get the lines of a base and show them as html on your page. Is that what you want?

Best regards
Christoph

Thanks, Christoph. This is exactly what I am looking. Could you please explain how to do that?. I created setable server, I need to create similar page like this(https://market.seatable.cn/). I have to build on top of seatable

For market.seatable.cn, we use Django framework to get data from a base and provide APIs to the frontend:

Frontend <-----> API Middleware (use SeaTable Python library)  <-----> base

For simple pages, you can use framework like nextjs and skip the middleware.

Frontend <-----> base

To load a base to the frontend, you can generate an API token for the base, then use dtable-sdk to load the base: https://docs.seatable.io/published/dtable-sdk/home.md

Hi daniel,
Is it possible to update the frontend page design as we wish? or is it possible to create a new page based on our requirement with seatable flow, database and server?

Which frontend page do you mean? Can you post a design picture to better explain your ideas?
