Kibana 4 Plugins – Field Formatters: Create URL using multiple fields

[Otolepp]

Hi,

I am trying to create a new field formatters for kibana that can create an URL using multiple fields (looking like this: http://company.net/profiles?user_id=field1&company_id=field2).
Creating the field format isn't the issue here, but I can't access the value of the field.

This is what I have so far:

function Url2FormatProvider(Private) {

   var _ = require('lodash');
    var FieldFormat = Private(require('ui/index_patterns/_field_format/FieldFormat'));    
    var row = require('ui/doc_table/components/table_row.js');

    _.class(Url2).inherits(FieldFormat);

    function Url2(params) {
      Url2.Super.call(this, params);
    }

    Url2.id = 'url2';
    Url2.title = 'Url2';
    Url2.fieldType = ['string'];

    Url2.prototype._convert = {  
      text: function (value) {
        return this._formatLabel(value);
      },
       html: function (rawValue, field, hit) {
        var url = _.escape(this._formatUrl(rawValue));
        var label = _.escape(this._formatLabel(rawValue, url));
      }
    };

    Url2.prototype._url2 = function (val) { 
      return '<a href="http://stackoverflow.com/?id=' + row._id + '/?type=' + row._type + '"> link </a>'

    Url2.prototype._convert = {
      text: function(val) {
        return this._url2(val, function convertToUpperCase(match) {
          return match.toUpperCase();
        });
      },
      html: function(val) {
       return this._url2(val);
      }
    };
    return Url2;
  };
}); 

The problem is that the "row._id" and the "row._type" are not returning the field value but only returning "undefined ".

P.S: I inspire myself from a link already existing in kibana 4 that do exactly what I want (on the discover page, at your right when you open the _source).

Agree, this would be useful. We have another issue tracking this here, closing this one.
