Methods
_addAttrs
-
cfgs
-
values
-
lazy
Implementation behind the public addAttrs method.
This method is invoked directly by get if it encounters a scenario in which an attribute's valueFn attempts to obtain the value an attribute in the same group of attributes, which has not yet been added (on demand initialization).
Parameters:
-
cfgs
ObjectAn object with attribute name/configuration pairs.
-
values
ObjectAn object with attribute name/value pairs, defining the initial values to apply. Values defined in the cfgs argument will be over-written by values in this argument unless defined as read only.
-
lazy
BooleanWhether or not to delay the intialization of these attributes until the first call to get/set. Individual attributes can over-ride this behavior by defining a lazyAdd configuration property in their configuration. See addAttr.
_addLazyAttr
-
name
-
[lazyCfg]
Finishes initializing an attribute which has been lazily added.
_addOutOfOrder
-
name
-
cfg
Utility method used by get/set to add attributes encountered out of order when calling addAttrs().
For example, if:
this.addAttrs({
foo: {
setter: function() {
// make sure this bar is available when foo is added
this.get("bar");
}
},
bar: {
value: ...
}
});
_aggregateAttrs
-
allAttrs
A helper method, used by _initHierarchyData to aggregate attribute configuration across the instances class hierarchy.
The method will protect the attribute configuration value to protect the statically defined default value in ATTRS if required (if the value is an object literal, array or the attribute configuration has cloneDefaultValue set to shallow or deep).
Parameters:
-
allAttrs
ArrayAn array of ATTRS definitions across classes in the hierarchy (subclass first, Base last)
Returns:
The aggregate set of ATTRS definitions for the instance
_attrCfgHash
()
private
Utility method to define the attribute hash used to filter/whitelist property mixes for this class for iteration performance reasons.
_baseDestroy
()
private
Internal destroy implementation for BaseCore
_baseInit
()
private
Internal initialization implementation for BaseCore
_bindAnimHide
()
private
Binds a listener to invoke the original visibility handling when the animHide animation is complete
_bindAnimShow
()
private
Binds a listener to invoke the original visibility handling when the animShow animation is started
_cloneDefaultValue

eventFastPath
Default function for attribute change events.
Parameters:
-
e
EventFacadeThe event object for attribute change events.

_filterAdHocAttrs
-
allAttrs
-
userVals
Parameters:

name
StringThe name of the attribute
Returns:
true if it's a lazily added attribute, false otherwise.
_monitor
-
what
-
eventType
-
o
This is the entry point for the event monitoring system. You can monitor 'attach', 'detach', 'fire', and 'publish'. When configured, these events generate an event. click -> click_attach, click_detach, click_publish -- these can be subscribed to like other events to monitor the event system. Inividual published events can have monitoring turned on or off (publish can't be turned off before it it published) by setting the events 'monitor' config.
Parameters:
-
what
String'attach', 'detach', 'fire', or 'publish'
-
eventType
String | CustomEventThe prefixed name of the event being monitored, or the CustomEvent object.
-
o
ObjectInformation about the event interaction, such as fire() args, subscription category, publish config

outside of this method. e.g. the type
to fullType
conversion. It's designed to be a fast
path publish, which can be used by critical code paths to improve performance.

Returns:
The published event. If called without etOpts
or ceOpts
, this will
be the default CustomEvent
instance, and can be configured independently.

-
newVal
AnyThe value which is going to be stored.
-
[opts]
Object optionalOptional data providing the circumstances for the change.
-
[attrCfg]
Object optionalOptional config hash for the attribute. This is added for performance along the critical path, where the calling method has already obtained the config from state.
Returns:
true if the new attribute value was stored, false if not.
_setStateVal
-
name
-
value
Sets the stored value for the attribute, in either the internal state object, or the state proxy if it exits
Parameters:
-
name
StringThe name of the attribute
-
value
AnyThe value of the attribute
_uiAnimSetVisible
-
val
The injected method used to override the host widget's _uiSetVisible implementation with an animated version of the same.
This method replaces the default _uiSetVisible handler Widget provides, by injecting itself before _uiSetVisible, and preventing the default behavior.
Parameters:
-
val
Booleantrue, if making the widget visible. false, if hiding it.
_uiSetVisible
-
val
The original Widget _uiSetVisible implementation. This currently needs to be replicated, so it can be invoked before or after the animation starts or stops, since the original methods is not available to the AOP implementation.
Parameters:
-
val
Booleantrue, if making the widget visible. false, if hiding it.
addAttr
-
name
-
config
-
lazy
Adds an attribute with the provided configuration to the host object.
The config argument object supports the following properties:
- value <Any>
- The initial value to set on the attribute
- valueFn <Function | String>
-
A function, which will return the initial value to set on the attribute. This is useful for cases where the attribute configuration is defined statically, but needs to reference the host instance ("this") to obtain an initial value. If both the value and valueFn properties are defined, the value returned by the valueFn has precedence over the value property, unless it returns undefined, in which case the value property is used.
valueFn can also be set to a string, representing the name of the instance method to be used to retrieve the value.
- readOnly <boolean>
- Whether or not the attribute is read only. Attributes having readOnly set to true cannot be modified by invoking the set method.
- writeOnce <boolean> or <string>
-
Whether or not the attribute is "write once". Attributes having writeOnce set to true,
can only have their values set once, be it through the default configuration,
constructor configuration arguments, or by invoking set.
The writeOnce attribute can also be set to the string "initOnly", in which case the attribute can only be set during initialization (when used with Base, this means it can only be set during construction)
- setter <Function | String>
-
The setter function used to massage or normalize the value passed to the set method for the attribute. The value returned by the setter will be the final stored value. Returning Attribute.INVALID_VALUE, from the setter will prevent the value from being stored.
setter can also be set to a string, representing the name of the instance method to be used as the setter function.
- getter <Function | String>
-
The getter function used to massage or normalize the value returned by the get method for the attribute. The value returned by the getter function is the value which will be returned to the user when they invoke get.
getter can also be set to a string, representing the name of the instance method to be used as the getter function.
- validator <Function | String>
-
The validator function invoked prior to setting the stored value. Returning false from the validator function will prevent the value from being stored.
validator can also be set to a string, representing the name of the instance method to be used as the validator function.
- lazyAdd <boolean>
- Whether or not to delay initialization of the attribute until the first call to get/set it. This flag can be used to over-ride lazy initialization on a per attribute basis, when adding multiple attributes through the addAttrs method.
The setter, getter and validator are invoked with the value and name passed in as the first and second arguments, and with the context ("this") set to the host object.
Configuration properties outside of the list mentioned above are considered private properties used internally by attribute, and are not intended for public use.
Parameters:
-
name
StringThe name of the attribute.
-
config
ObjectAn object with attribute configuration property/value pairs, specifying the configuration for the attribute.
NOTE: The configuration object is modified when adding an attribute, so if you need to protect the original values, you will need to merge the object.
-
lazy
Boolean(optional) Whether or not to add this attribute lazily (on the first call to get/set).
Returns:
A reference to the host object.
addAttrs
-
cfgs
-
values
-
lazy
Configures a group of attributes, and sets initial values.
NOTE: This method does not isolate the configuration object by merging/cloning. The caller is responsible for merging/cloning the configuration object if required.
Parameters:
-
cfgs
ObjectAn object with attribute name/configuration pairs.
-
values
ObjectAn object with attribute name/value pairs, defining the initial values to apply. Values defined in the cfgs argument will be over-written by values in this argument unless defined as read only.
-
lazy
BooleanWhether or not to delay the intialization of these attributes until the first call to get/set. Individual attributes can over-ride this behavior by defining a lazyAdd configuration property in their configuration. See addAttr.
Returns:
A reference to the host object.
addTarget
-
o
Registers another EventTarget as a bubble target. Bubble order is determined by the order registered. Multiple targets can be specified.
Events can only bubble if emitFacade is true.

type
StringThe type, or name of the event
doAfter
-
strMethod
-
fn
-
context
Listens for the "after" moment of events fired by the host, or injects code "after" a given method on the host.
Parameters:
-
strMethod
StringThe event to listen for, or method to inject logic after.
-
fn
FunctionThe handler function. For events, the "after" moment listener. For methods, the function to execute after the given method is executed.

fire
-
type
-
arguments
Fire a custom event by name. The callback functions will be executed from the context specified when the event was created, and with the following parameters.
The first argument is the event type, and any additional arguments are passed to the listeners as parameters. If the first of these is an object literal, and the event is configured to emit an event facade, that object is mixed into the event facade and the facade is provided in place of the original object.
If the custom event object hasn't been created, then the event hasn't been published and it has no subscribers. For performance sake, we immediate exit in this case. This means the event won't bubble, so if the intention is that a bubble target be notified, the event must be published on this object first.
Parameters:
-
type
String | ObjectThe type of the event, or an object that contains a 'type' property.
-
arguments
Object*an arbitrary set of parameters to pass to the handler. If the first of these is an object literal and the event is configured to emit an event facade, the event facade will replace that parameter after the properties the object literal contains are copied to the event facade.
Returns:
True if the whole lifecycle of the event went through, false if at any point the event propagation was halted.
get
-
name
Returns the current value of the attribute. If the attribute has been configured with a 'getter' function, this method will delegate to the 'getter' to obtain the value of the attribute.
Parameters:
-
name
StringThe name of the attribute. If the value of the attribute is an Object, dot notation can be used to obtain the value of a property of the object (e.g.
get("x.y.z")
)
Returns:
The value of the attribute
getAttrs
-
attrs
Gets multiple attribute values.
Parameters:
Returns:
An object with attribute name/value pairs.

Returns the custom event of the provided type has been created, a falsy value otherwise
Parameters:
Returns:
the custom event or null
getTargets

Returns an array of bubble targets for this object.
Returns:
EventTarget[]
init
-
cfg
Init lifecycle method, invoked during construction. Sets up attributes and invokes initializers for the class hierarchy.
Parameters:

ObjectObject with configuration property name/value pairs
Returns:
A reference to this object
initializer
-
config
The initializer lifecycle implementation. Modifies the host widget's visibililty implementation to add animation.
Parameters:
-
config
ObjectThe user configuration for the plugin
modifyAttr
-
name
-
config
Updates the configuration of an attribute which has already been added.
The properties which can be modified through this interface are limited to the following subset of attributes, which can be safely modified after a value has already been set on the attribute:
- readOnly;
- writeOnce;
- broadcast; and
- getter.
Note: New attributes cannot be added using this interface. New attributes must be added using addAttr, or an appropriate manner for a class which utilises Attributes (e.g. the ATTRS property in Base).
on
-
type
-
fn
-
[context]
-
[arg*]
Subscribe a callback function to a custom event fired by this object or from an object that bubbles its events to this object.
this.on("change", this._onChange, this);
Callback functions for events published with emitFacade = true
will
receive an EventFacade
as the first argument (typically named "e").
These callbacks can then call e.preventDefault()
to disable the
behavior published to that event's defaultFn
. See the EventFacade
API for all available properties and methods. Subscribers to
non-emitFacade
events will receive the arguments passed to fire()
after the event name.
To subscribe to multiple events at once, pass an object as the first argument, where the key:value pairs correspond to the eventName:callback.
this.on({
"attrChange" : this._onAttrChange,
"change" : this._onChange
});
You can also pass an array of event names as the first argument to subscribe to all listed events with the same callback.
this.on([ "change", "attrChange" ], this._onChange);
Returning false
from a callback is supported as an alternative to
calling e.preventDefault(); e.stopPropagation();
. However, it is
recommended to use the event methods whenever possible.
