LookupField currently shows only a single label field in a flat list with no pagination, making it impossible to distinguish records (e.g., orders showing only ORD-2024-001 with no customer, amount, or status context). This upgrades the lookup experience to match enterprise standards (Salesforce/SAP Fiori pattern).

Schema types (@object-ui/types)

  • New LookupColumnDef interface ({ field, label?, width?, type? }) with type hint for future cell renderer integration
  • New LookupFilterDef interface ({ field, operator, value }) for base filter configuration with operator compatibility docs
  • Extended LookupFieldMetadata with lookup_columns, description_field, lookup_page_size, lookup_filters

RecordPickerDialog component (@object-ui/fields)

New standalone dialog component with:

  • Multi-column table via Shadcn Table primitives
  • Server-side pagination ($top/$skip) with page navigation
  • Column sorting via clickable headers ($orderby) with ascending/descending toggle and aria-sort attributes
  • Debounced $search
  • Keyboard navigation — Arrow keys to move between rows, Enter/Space to select, role="grid" semantics
  • Single/multi-select with confirmation flow
  • Loading, error, empty states
  • Responsive layout — mobile-friendly width (w-[95vw] sm:w-full, max-h-[85vh] sm:max-h-[80vh])
  • Auto-inferred columns from displayField when lookup_columns is unset

LookupField two-level interaction

  • Level 1 (Popover): Converted from Dialog to Popover for inline typeahead experience (anchored dropdown, non-modal), matching the Salesforce/SAP pattern
  • "Show All Results (N)" button appears when totalCount > displayed — opens Level 2
  • Level 2: RecordPickerDialog with full table, pagination, sorting, configured columns
  • Reads lookup_columns, lookup_page_size from field metadata

Usage

{
  type: 'lookup',
  name: 'order',
  reference_to: 'orders',
  reference_field: 'order_number',
  description_field: 'customer_name',
  lookup_columns: [
    { field: 'order_number', label: 'Order #' },
    { field: 'customer_name', label: 'Customer' },
    { field: 'total_amount', label: 'Amount' },
    'status',  // string shorthand, auto-labels as "Status"
  ],
  lookup_page_size: 15,
}

Zero-config works — omitting lookup_columns auto-infers a single column from reference_field.

Tests

20 new tests covering RecordPickerDialog (table rendering, pagination, search, single/multi-select, error/loading/empty, custom columns, auto-inference, column sorting with $orderby, sort direction toggling, aria-sort indicators, keyboard navigation, responsive layout) and LookupField integration (Show All Results visibility, dialog opening, column passthrough).

All 375 pre-existing tests continue to pass. One pre-existing scrollIntoView JSDOM failure is unrelated.

<issue_title>【长期架构级优化】LookupField/Reference 字段下拉弹窗的企业级 Record Picker 方案升级</issue_title>
<issue_description>

目标

将 LookupField(关联选择控件)的弹窗/下拉体验全面升级为企业管理软件标准(参考 Salesforce、SAP Fiori、Oracle Fusion 等),实现高信息密度、强可定制、支持搜索+筛选+多列+分页+批量选择的通用 Record Picker。

🔥 当前存在的核心问题

从截图中可以看到,当前 Order 的 Lookup 弹窗仅展示了 ORD-2024-001 这样的单字段信息:

image1

9 大问题清单:

# 问题 严重度
1 列表项信息密度极其不足:仅展示 label,缺少客户名称、金额、状态等辅助信息,用户无法区分订单 P1
2 缺少筛选/高级搜索能力:只能简单文本搜索,无法按状态、客户、日期等字段筛选 P1
3 只支持简单列表模式:不能像主列表页那样多列对齐、支持货币/枚举/日期等格式化 P2
4 无分页与大数据友好性:仅取前 50 条(LOOKUP_PAGE_SIZE = 50),无滚动/翻页 P2
5 通用性弱/难以定制:只能通过 display_field/description_field 静态指定,无 schema 级配置 P2
6 复用性低:ObjectView/ObjectGrid 已有完整表格/搜索/筛选能力,但 LookupField 自实现简陋弹窗 P2
7 用户体验不符主流习惯:未实现 Typeahead 下拉 + "Show All Results" 弹窗二级交互模式 P2
8 未对齐业界标准:Salesforce/SAP 的 Record Picker = 主列表页功能子集 + selection P3
9 无障碍/响应式/移动端体验有限 P3

✨ 拟解决方案总览(长期架构路线)

1. LookupField 结构升级为两级交互

  • 一级(Popover): 内联 typeahead,快速检索前若干条,footer 有「Show All Results」按钮
  • 二级(Dialog): 打开完整 Record Picker 弹窗,内嵌 ObjectGrid,拥有表格列、排序、分页、��选、Badge/格式化等全功能
  • 同时解决弹窗嵌套 ModalForm 场景的用户体验

2. Record Picker Dialog 企业级能力

  • 自动展示多列,默认根据被引用对象的 objectSchema 智能推断主字段+关键业务字段
  • 支持 schema 配置列/过滤(lookup_columns / lookup_filters / lookup_layout,对标 Salesforce Search Layout)
  • 支持单/多选、批量选择、可定制操作区(如「创建新记录」)
  • 所有表格功能与 ObjectGrid 保持一致

3. 配置协议升级

  • 字段级(lookup_columnslookup_filterslookup_base_filter
  • Object 级(lookup_layout)集中定义全局 Pick 列配置
  • 智能 fallback(无配置时自动从 objectSchema 选主/常用字段)

4. 与 ObjectView/ObjectGrid/FilterUI 完全解耦复用

5. 可国际化、移动端友好、无障碍

📝 详细需求清单

1. LookupField 级联交互升级

  • 一级 Popover 下拉支持最近、快速匹配、footer「Show All Results」按钮
  • 二级 RecordPickerDialog 实现,弹窗内嵌 ObjectGrid(selection: single/multi)
  • Dialog 支持 schema 配置 columns、filters、排序、分页
  • 支持弹窗可定制宽度,移动端全屏
  • 修复 ModalForm、Drawer 内弹窗嵌套问题

2. 信息密度多字段渲染

  • RecordPickerDialog 行支持多字段展示,兼容 badge、currency、日期等格式化
  • 支持 schema template(display_template/subtitle_template)自定义每条展示
  • 智能 auto-resolve objectSchema 字段作为默认展示(可零配置)

3. 高级筛选与表格功能

  • 支持 FilterUI 作为弹窗 filter bar、多字段组合筛选
  • 支持 ObjectGrid 标准的列排序、分页、列宽调整、空态适配
  • RecordPickerDialog 支持 loading / error / empty 状态自适应

4. Schema/协议层面增强

  • lookup_columnslookup_filters 字段级协议、object 级 lookup_layout
  • 可 schema/admin/低代码配置,无需代码变更即可调整 picker 行为

5. 通用性增强

  • 同一控件支持不同 lookup/主对象在弹窗内体验一致

6. 无障碍和国际化优化

  • 完善 Keyboard/ARIA/屏读
  • 弹窗、popover、listitem 完全移动端支持

@copilot 仔细评估是否完成了任务中要求的所有开发内容

After thorough evaluation of the issue requirements, I identified 6 significant gaps and addressed all of them in commit a884191:

Newly completed items:

  1. Level 1 → Popover (§1.1) — Converted LookupField quick-select from Dialog to Popover for inline typeahead (Salesforce/SAP pattern)
  2. Column Sorting (§1.3) — Clickable column headers with $orderby, ascending/descending toggle, aria-sort attributes
  3. Responsive/Mobile (§1.4) — Dialog uses w-[95vw] sm:w-full for mobile-friendly layout
  4. Schema: lookup_filters (§4.2) — Added LookupFilterDef interface with operator compatibility docs
  5. Keyboard Navigation (§6.1) — Arrow key row navigation + Enter/Space selection in RecordPickerDialog, role="grid" semantics
  6. Type hint for cell rendering (§2.2) — Added type property to LookupColumnDef for future getCellRenderer integration

Remaining long-term items (per the issue's "长期架构路线" roadmap):

  • FilterUI integration as dialog filter bar (requires FilterBuilder component)
  • ObjectGrid embedding (requires refactoring to decouple ObjectGrid from plugin-view)
  • display_template/subtitle_template template engine
  • ModalForm/Drawer nesting fix (complex portal management)
  • objectSchema auto-resolution (requires DataSource.getSchema() or similar)
  • Full getCellRenderer integration (needs objectSchema field-type information per column)

Test results: 395 pass, 1 pre-existing JSDOM scrollIntoView failure (unrelated). CodeQL: 0 alerts.

Pull request overview

This PR upgrades the lookup field UX to an enterprise-style, two-level record picking flow (typeahead popover + full-featured picker dialog) and extends the lookup metadata schema to support richer configuration.

Changes:

  • Extended LookupFieldMetadata in @object-ui/types with column and filter configuration types (LookupColumnDef, LookupFilterDef) plus lookup_columns, lookup_page_size, lookup_filters, and description_field.
  • Added RecordPickerDialog to @object-ui/fields with table rendering, server-side pagination, sorting, debounced search, and keyboard navigation; wired it into LookupField via “Show All Results”.
  • Added documentation, changelog/roadmap entries, and a new test suite covering dialog behavior and LookupField integration.

- **RecordPickerDialog Component** (`@object-ui/fields`): New enterprise-grade record selection dialog with multi-column table display, pagination, search, column sorting with `$orderby`, keyboard navigation (Arrow keys + Enter), loading/error/empty states, and single/multi-select support. Responsive layout with mobile-friendly width. Provides the foundation for Salesforce-style Lookup experience.
- **LookupField Popover Typeahead** (`@object-ui/fields`): Level 1 quick-select upgraded from Dialog to Popover for inline typeahead experience (anchored dropdown, not modal). Includes "Show All Results" footer button that opens the full RecordPickerDialog (Level 2).
- **LookupFieldMetadata Schema Enhancement** (`@object-ui/types`): Added `lookup_columns`, `description_field`, `lookup_page_size`, `lookup_filters` to `LookupFieldMetadata`. New `LookupColumnDef` interface with `type` hint for cell formatting. New `LookupFilterDef` interface for base filter configuration.
