How get item ID in JSLink on DisplayForm

Question

I'm customizing the DisplayForm of a list, and I want put a button on footer to EditForm, but in the ctx has no edit form url and no CurrentItem.ID.

How can I do this?

ID can be retrieved from the Query String in URL – Asad Refai Nov 24 '15 at 12:47 — Asad Refai, Nov 24 '15 at 12:47

Getting from ctx

var itemId = ctx.FormContext.itemAttributes.Id;

I have executed above code under OnPreRender & OnPostRender both. So you can use it where you need it.

I think it is easier to get from Query String rather than from ctx.FormContext.

As per Asad's comment, Getting from Query String

var itemId = GetUrlKeyValue('ID');

Have a look on this answer by Danny Engelman to read more about Query String.

Which one you have used? query string or ctx.FormContext.itemAttributes.Id? – Atish Kumar Dipongkor Nov 24 '15 at 13:24
For now query string. But is good to know about FormContext.itemAttributes. :D – Carlos Nov 24 '15 at 13:25
Hey, u know how extract the user name from user field (ctx.CurrentItem.Author)? – Carlos Nov 24 '15 at 13:26
use console.dir(ctx) in OnPreRender and see what's in it. I just find it (ctx.FormContext.itemAttributes.Id) this way – Atish Kumar Dipongkor Nov 24 '15 at 13:28
Author is in ctx.ListData.Items[0].Author. – Atish Kumar Dipongkor Nov 24 '15 at 13:31
