Repeatable entry

Introduction

RepeatableEntry is the read-only cousin of a form repeater: each list item renders a nested entry schema. Reach for it on view pages when a record owns related rows — line items, modules, addresses — and you want the same typed entries (badges, icons, text) inside each card instead of a flat comma-joined string.

Nested entries keep the stacked label-above-value default unless you opt into .inline_label(). Empty lists render an “No items” empty state so the chrome still explains what would appear.

Basic repeatable entry

from almasix.orbit.infolists import RepeatableEntry, TextEntry

RepeatableEntry.make("items")
    .label("Modules")
    .schema([
        TextEntry.make("name").label("Name"),
        TextEntry.make("status").label("Status").badge().color("info"),
    ])

Columns and contained layout

.columns(2) lays items out in a grid. .contained(False) drops the bordered card chrome (or-repeatable-bare). Empty lists render an “No items” empty state.

RepeatableEntry.make("items")
    .label("Modules")
    .columns(2)
    .contained(False)
    .schema([
        TextEntry.make("name").label("Name"),
        TextEntry.make("status").label("Status").badge(),
    ])
