editable_if

Conditional Edit Access

Control whether an existing record can be edited, based on a conditions reference evaluated at runtime.

If not defined, the default is to allow editing only for the most recently created item in the list. Use always: true to make items always editable.

Pattern 1: Always Editable

!defs(extra_options_editable_if_pattern_1_always_defs.yaml)

Pattern 2: Never Editable

!defs(extra_options_editable_if_pattern_2_never_defs.yaml)

Pattern 3: Conditional Edit Access

!defs(extra_options_editable_if_pattern_3_conditional_defs.yaml)

Pattern 4: Merge Shared Conditions With Local Rules

!defs(extra_options_editable_if_pattern_4_merge_anchor_defs.yaml)

editable_if must be a hash using the standard conditions syntax.
