Is it possible to access CurrentPage ID from dojo widget

Hi,

We have developed a custom key value property using dojo. We'd like to extend this widget with a dropdown list for value that is aware of it's context. In this case we'd like to populate the dropdown with a call to an external database by providing the currentpage ID as a parameter to a rest service. Is this possible?

Do you mean the content link?
If true, you can get through context service (can be mixed-in with your widget by: _ContentContextMixin class):

For example:

define([

"dijit/_Widget",

"epi-cms/_ContentContextMixin"

], function(

_Widget,

_ContentContextMixin

) {

    return declare("Your widget name", [_Widget, _ContentContextMixin], {

        contextChanged: function (context, callerData) {
            this.inherited(arguments);

            // TODO: Your code when context change

            // Update dropdown data for instace!

        }

    });

});

Hope that help!

// Ha Bui

Is it possible to get a particular episerver property id on a page without using currentPage option. Is it possible to get the id by dojo framework ?
