如何知道Avalonia中ItemsRepeater当前元素的索引？

Question

I have the following code in my MainWindow.axaml:

<ItemsRepeater Items="{Binding ChannelCollection}">
    <ItemsRepeater.ItemTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <CheckBox IsChecked="{Binding Value, Mode=TwoWay}" Content="{Binding Name}"></CheckBox>
        </DataTemplate>
    </ItemsRepeater.ItemTemplate>
</ItemsRepeater>

Here I bind to collection of Channels with Name and Value properties. But actual content of my checkbox depends on its index in the collection. I don't want to resolve the Channel myself but want to use converter that maps index to the name. So far I have to know the element index from the axaml code.

I want to have something like this in my Checkbox tag:

Content="{Binding ItemsRepeater.CurrentIndex, Converter={StaticResource IdToNameConverter}}"

How can I do this?

You could use a multi value converter that converts your collection and the element to the name string:

public class ElementIndexConverter : IMultiValueConverter
{
    public object Convert(IList<object?> values, Type targetType, object? parameter, CultureInfo culture)
    {
        return values[0] is IList list ? $"{list.IndexOf(values[1])}" : "-1";
    }
}

Then in the view you have to use MultiBinding and pass the collection and the object:

<ItemsRepeater Items="{Binding ChannelCollection}">
    <ItemsRepeater.ItemTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
                <CheckBox IsChecked="{Binding Value, Mode=TwoWay}">
                    <CheckBox.Content>
                        <MultiBinding Converter="{StaticResource ElementIndexConverter}">
                            <MultiBinding.Bindings>
                                <Binding Path="$parent[ItemsRepeater].DataContext.ChannelCollection"/>
                                <Binding Path="."/>
                            </MultiBinding.Bindings>
                        </MultiBinding>
                    </CheckBox.Content>
                </CheckBox>
            </StackPanel>
        </DataTemplate>
    </ItemsRepeater.ItemTemplate>
</ItemsRepeater>
