Question

I'm relatively new to MVVMCross and MVVM architecture.

I'm trying to keep my CodeBehind as clean as possible so I've been using Interactivity:Interaction.Behaviors to trigger a command when clicking on an Item:

<views:MvxStorePage.Resources>
        <core:Theme x:Key="Theme"/>
        <b:NameScopeBinding  x:Key="ModuleGridView" Source="{Binding ElementName=ModuleGridView}" />
</views:MvxStorePage.Resources>
...
<GridView x:Name="ModuleGridView" >
...
<Interactivity:Interaction.Behaviors>
     <Core:EventTriggerBehavior EventName="SelectionChanged">
          <Core:InvokeCommandAction Command="{Binding SelectModuleCommand}" CommandParameter="{Binding Source.SelectedItem, Source={StaticResource ModuleGridView}}" />
     </Core:EventTriggerBehavior>
</Interactivity:Interaction.Behaviors>
...
</GridView>

And in my ViewModel:

MvxCommand<object> _selectModuleCommand;
        public ICommand SelectModuleCommand
        {
            get
            {
                _selectModuleCommand = _selectModuleCommand ?? new MvxCommand<object>((obj) => SelectModule(obj));
                return _selectModuleCommand;
            }
        }

        private void SelectModule(object module)
        {
            var test = 1;
        }

Problem is that the object passed in to SelectModule is of type ItemClickedEventArgs which isn't available in the PCL core project where my ViewModels are located. So i can't access the ItemClicked property of that object.

I've tried using this from my ´InvokeCommandAction´

 <Core:InvokeCommandAction Command="{Binding SelectModuleCommand}" CommandParameter="{Binding Source.SelectedItem.ClickedItem, Source={StaticResource ModuleGridView}}" />

But it has no effect, i still get ItemClickedEventArgs as parameter to my Command

Was it helpful?

Solution

Solved using InputConverter property of InvokeCommandAction

<interactivity:Interaction.Behaviors>
                            <icore:EventTriggerBehavior EventName="ItemClick">
                                <icore:InvokeCommandAction Command="{Binding SelectModuleCommand}" InputConverter="{StaticResource ItemClickedConverter}" />
                            </icore:EventTriggerBehavior>
                        </interactivity:Interaction.Behaviors>

ItemClickedConverter:

public class ItemClickedConverter : IValueConverter
    {
        public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, string language)
        {
            var args = value as ItemClickEventArgs;

            if (args != null)
                return args.ClickedItem;

            return null;
        }

        public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter,
            string language)
        {
            throw new NotImplementedException();
        }
    }
