How to create Inline Edit in grid? I need controller file or only do this in view ui_component?

I created this in ui_component but not working

<item name="childDefaults" xsi:type="array">
<item name="fieldAction" xsi:type="array">
 <item name="provider" xsi:type="string">test_mytesting_index.test_mytesting_index.test_mytesting_columns_editor</item>
 <item name="target" xsi:type="string">startEdit</item>
 <item name="params" xsi:type="array">
 <item name="0" xsi:type="string">$ $.$data.rowIndex </item>
 <item name="1" xsi:type="boolean">true</item>
 </item>
</item>

You can take the reference from CMS module of core Magneto. This is the reference link for that https://github.com/magento/magento2/blob/2.1/app/code/Magento/Cms/view/adminhtml/ui_component/cms_block_listing.xml

Like showing in this file you need to add editorConfig to configure inline edit and you also need to create controller.

<item name="editorConfig" xsi:type="array">
 <item name="selectProvider" xsi:type="string">cms_block_listing.cms_block_listing.cms_block_columns.ids</item>
 <item name="enabled" xsi:type="boolean">true</item>
 <item name="indexField" xsi:type="string">block_id</item>
 <item name="clientConfig" xsi:type="array">
 <item name="saveUrl" xsi:type="url" path="cms/block/inlineEdit"/>
 <item name="validateBeforeSave" xsi:type="boolean">false</item>
 </item>
</item>

In your Ui_component.xml place this code make inline edit work.

<settings> 
 <editorConfig>
 <param name="clientConfig" xsi:type="array">
 <item name="saveUrl" xsi:type="url" path="route/controllerfolder/controller"/>
 <item name="validateBeforeSave" xsi:type="boolean">false</item>
 </param>
 <param name="indexField" xsi:type="string">primary_field</param>
 <param name="enabled" xsi:type="boolean">true</param>
 <param name="selectProvider" xsi:type="string">test_mytesting_index.test_mytesting_index.test_mytesting_columns.ids</param>
 </editorConfig>
 <childDefaults>
 <param name="fieldAction" xsi:type="array">
 <item name="provider" xsi:type="string">test_mytesting_index.test_mytesting_index.test_mytesting_columns_editor</item>
 <item name="target" xsi:type="string">startEdit</item>
 <item name="params" xsi:type="array">
 <item name="0" xsi:type="string">$ $.$data.rowIndex </item>
 <item name="1" xsi:type="boolean">true</item>
 </item>
 </param>
 </childDefaults>
 </settings>

To show a column in Inline-edit, add below code

 <column name="your_field">
 <argument name="data" xsi:type="array">
 <item name="config" xsi:type="array">
 <item name="filter" xsi:type="string">text</item>
 <item name="sorting" xsi:type="string">asc</item>
 <item name="label" xsi:type="string" translate="true">Your Field Label</item>
 <item name="editor" xsi:type="array">
 <item name="editorType" xsi:type="string">text</item>
 <item name="validation" xsi:type="array">
 <item name="required-entry" xsi:type="boolean">false</item>
 </item>
 </item>
 </item>
 </argument>
</column>

Next you need to create a controller,route/controllerfolder/controller.

Vendor/Module/Controller/Area(frontend(or)Adminhtml)/controllerfolder/controller

<?php
namespace VendorModuleControllerAdminhtmlcontrollerfolder;

class controller extends MagentoBackendAppAction


protected $jsonFactory;

public function __construct(
 MagentoBackendAppActionContext $context,
 MagentoFrameworkControllerResultJsonFactory $jsonFactory
) 
 parent::__construct($context);
 $this->jsonFactory = $jsonFactory;


public function execute()

 /** @var MagentoFrameworkControllerResultJson $resultJson */
 $resultJson = $this->jsonFactory->create();
 $error = false;
 $messages = [];

 if ($this->getRequest()->getParam('isAjax')) 
 $postItems = $this->getRequest()->getParam('items', []);
 if (!count($postItems)) 
 $messages[] = __('Please correct the data sent.');
 $error = true;
 else 
 foreach (array_keys($postItems) as $entityId) 
 /** load your model to update the data */
 $model = $this->_objectManager->create('VendorModuleModelYourModel')->load($entityId);
 try 
 $model->setData(array_merge($model->getData(), $postItems[$entityId]));
 $model->save();
 catch (Exception $e) 
 $messages[] = "[Error:] $e->getMessage()";
 $error = true;
 
 
 
 

 return $resultJson->setData([
 'messages' => $messages,
 'error' => $error
 ]);
 

I hope this helps!!
