Many classes have shortcut names used when creating (instantiating) a class with a
configuration object. The shortcut name is referred to as an alias (or xtype if the
class extends Ext.Component). The alias/xtype is listed next to the class name of
applicable classes for quick reference.
Framework classes or their members may be specified as private or protected. Else,
the class / member is public. Public, protected, and private are access
descriptors used to convey how and when the class or class member should be used.
Public classes and class members are available for use by any other class or application code and may be relied upon as a stable and persistent within major product versions. Public classes and members may safely be extended via a subclass.
Protected class members are stable public members intended to be used by the
owning class or its subclasses. Protected members may safely be extended via a subclass.
Private classes and class members are used internally by the framework and are not intended to be used by application developers. Private classes and members may change or be omitted from the framework at any time without notice and should not be relied upon in application logic.
static label next to the
method name. *See Static below.Below is an example class member that we can disect to show the syntax of a class member (the lookupComponent method as viewed from the Ext.button.Button class in this case).
Let's look at each part of the member row:
lookupComponent in this example)( item ) in this example)Ext.Component in this case). This may be omitted for methods that do not
return anything other than undefined or may display as multiple possible values
separated by a forward slash / signifying that what is returned may depend on the
results of the method call (i.e. a method may return a Component if a get method calls is
successful or false if unsuccessful which would be displayed as
Ext.Component/Boolean).PROTECTED in
this example - see the Flags section below)Ext.container.Container in this example). The source
class will be displayed as a blue link if the member originates from the current class
and gray if it is inherited from an ancestor or mixed-in class.view source in the example)item : Object in the example).undefined a "Returns" section
will note the type of class or object returned and a description (Ext.Component in the
example)Available since 3.4.0 - not pictured in
the example) just after the member descriptionDefaults to: false)The API documentation uses a number of flags to further commnicate the class member's function and intent. The label may be represented by a text label, an abbreviation, or an icon.

Just below the class name on an API doc page is a row of buttons corresponding to the types of members owned by the current class. Each button shows a count of members by type (this count is updated as filters are applied). Clicking the button will navigate you to that member section. Hovering over the member-type button will reveal a popup menu of all members of that type for quick navigation.
Getting and setter methods that correlate to a class config option will show up in the methods section as well as in the configs section of both the API doc and the member-type menus just beneath the config they work with. The getter and setter method documentation will be found in the config row for easy reference.
Your page history is kept in localstorage and displayed (using the available real estate) just below the top title bar. By default, the only search results shown are the pages matching the product / version you're currently viewing. You can expand what is displayed by clicking on the button on the right-hand side of the history bar and choosing the "All" radio option. This will show all recent pages in the history bar for all products / versions.
Within the history config menu you will also see a listing of your recent page visits. The results are filtered by the "Current Product / Version" and "All" radio options. Clicking on the button will clear the history bar as well as the history kept in local storage.
If "All" is selected in the history config menu the checkbox option for "Show product details in the history bar" will be enabled. When checked, the product/version for each historic page will show alongside the page name in the history bar. Hovering the cursor over the page names in the history bar will also show the product/version as a tooltip.
Both API docs and guides can be searched for using the search field at the top of the page.
On API doc pages there is also a filter input field that filters the member rows using the filter string. In addition to filtering by string you can filter the class members by access level, inheritance, and read only. This is done using the checkboxes at the top of the page.
The checkbox at the bottom of the API class navigation tree filters the class list to include or exclude private classes.
Clicking on an empty search field will show your last 10 searches for quick navigation.
Each API doc page (with the exception of Javascript primitives pages) has a menu view of metadata relating to that class. This metadata view will have one or more of the following:
Ext.button.Button class has an alternate class name of Ext.Button). Alternate class
names are commonly maintained for backward compatibility.Runnable examples (Fiddles) are expanded on a page by default. You can collapse and expand example code blocks individually using the arrow on the top-left of the code block. You can also toggle the collapse state of all examples using the toggle button on the top-right of the page. The toggle-all state will be remembered between page loads.
Class members are collapsed on a page by default. You can expand and collapse members using the arrow icon on the left of the member row or globally using the expand / collapse all toggle button top-right.
Viewing the docs on narrower screens or browsers will result in a view optimized for a smaller form factor. The primary differences between the desktop and "mobile" view are:
The class source can be viewed by clicking on the class name at the top of an API doc page. The source for class members can be viewed by clicking on the "view source" link on the right-hand side of the member row.
A form field trigger that contains a Component
An object containing ARIA attributes to be set
on this Component's ARIA element. Use this to set the attributes that cannot be
determined by the Component's state, such as aria-live, aria-flowto, etc.
Note that this config is only meaningful at the Component rendering time, and setting it after that will do nothing.
Defaults to:
null
Sets the value of ariaAttributes
ariaAttributes : Object
DOM selector for a child element that is to be used
as description for this Component, set in aria-describedby attribute.
The selector works the same way as ariaLabelledBy.
ARIA label for this Component. It is best to use
ariaLabelledBy option instead, because screen readers prefer
aria-labelledby attribute to aria-label. ariaLabel and
ariaLabelledBy config options are mutually exclusive.
DOM selector for a child element that is to be used
as label for this Component, set in aria-labelledby attribute.
If the selector is by #id, the label element can be any existing element,
not necessarily a child of the main Component element.
ariaLabelledBy and ariaLabel config options are
mutually exclusive, and ariaLabelledBy has the higher precedence.
Setting this config option adds or removes data bindings for other configs.
For example, to bind the title config:
var panel = Ext.create({
xtype: 'panel',
bind: {
title: 'Hello {user.name}'
}
});
To dynamically add bindings:
panel.setBind({
title: 'Greetings {user.name}!'
});
To remove bindings:
panel.setBind({
title: null
});
The bind expressions are presented to Ext.app.ViewModel#bind. The
ViewModel instance is determined by lookupViewModel.
Note: If bind is passed as a string, it will use the Ext.Component#property-defaultBindProperty for the binding.
Defaults to:
null
Enables or disables bordering on this component. The following values are accepted:
null or `true (default): Do nothing and allow the border to be specified by the theme.false: suppress the default border provided by the theme.Please note that enabling bordering via this config will not add a border-color
or border-style CSS property to the component; you provide the border-color
and border-style via CSS rule or style configuration
(if not already provide by the theme).
Ext.Viewport.add({
centered: true,
width: 100,
height: 100,
style: 'border: 1px solid blue;'
// ...
});
Ext.Viewport.add({
centered: true,
width: 100,
height: 100,
cls: 'my-component'
// ...
});
And your CSS file:
.my-component {
border: 1px solid red;
}
Defaults to:
null
The CSS class to add to this widget's element, in addition to the baseCls. In many cases, this property will be specified by the derived widget class. See userCls for adding additional CSS classes to widget instances (such as items in a Ext.Container).
Defaults to:
null
A string alias, a configuration object or an instance of a ViewController for
this container. Sample usage:
Ext.define('MyApp.UserController', {
alias: 'controller.user'
});
Ext.define('UserContainer', {
extend: 'Ext.container.container',
controller: 'user'
});
// Or
Ext.define('UserContainer', {
extend: 'Ext.container.container',
controller: {
type: 'user',
someConfig: true
}
});
// Can also instance at runtime
var ctrl = new MyApp.UserController();
var view = new UserContainer({
controller: ctrl
});
Defaults to:
null
Returns the Ext.app.ViewController instance associated with this component via the controller config or setController method.
Sets the value of controller
controller : String / Object / Ext.app.ViewController
If true, this component will be the default scope (this pointer) for events
specified with string names so that the scope can be dynamically resolved. The
component will automatically become the defaultListenerScope if a
controller is specified.
See the introductory docs for Ext.container.Container for some sample usages.
NOTE: This value can only be reliably set at construction time. Setting it after that time may not correctly rewire all of the potentially effected listeners.
Defaults to:
false
Sets the value of defaultListenerScope
defaultListenerScope : Boolean
A map of event type to the corresponding handler method name. This is used internally by native event handling mechanism.
Defaults to:
{
focus: 'handleFocusEvent',
blur: 'handleBlurEvent'
}
CSS class that will be added to focused component's focusClsEl, and removed when component blurs.
Defaults to:
'x-focused'
The name of an optional group trigger that this trigger belongs to. If no trigger Exists by that name one will automatically be created. A group trigger is a special trigger that contains other triggers. Those triggers' elements are appended to the group trigger's element in the DOM.
The weight of grouped triggers is relative to other triggers in the group.
Defaults to:
null
The height of this Component; must be a valid CSS length value, e.g: 300, 100px, 30%, etc.
By default, if this is not explicitly set, this Component's element will simply have its own natural size.
If set to auto, it will set the width to null meaning it will have its own natural size.
Defaults to:
null
A String which specifies how this component's DOM element will be hidden. The accepted values are any of these:
'clip' : Hide using clip.'display' : Hide using display.'offsets' : Hide using positioning offsets.'opacity' : Hide using opacity.'visibility' : Hide using visibility.Hiding using display results in having no dimensions as well as resetting
scroll positions to 0.
The other modes overcome this but may have different trade-offs in certain circumstances.
Defaults to:
'display'
Available since: 6.5.0
Returns the value of hideMode
'clip' / 'display' / 'offsets' / 'opacity' / 'visibility'
Sets the value of hideMode
hideMode : 'clip' / 'display' / 'offsets' / 'opacity' / 'visibility'
{String/String[]
An extra CSS class or classes to augment the classCls on an individual instance
Defaults to:
null
Available since: 6.5.0
An object containing handlers for keyboard events. The property names of this object are the key name and any modifiers. The values of the properties are the descriptors of how to handle each event.
The handler descriptor can be simply the handler function (either the literal function or the method name), or it can be an object with these properties:
handler: The function or its name to call to handle the event.scope: The this pointer context (can be "this" or "controller").event: An optional override of the key event to which to listen.Important: Calls to setKeyMap do not replace the entire keyMap but
instead update the provided mappings. That is, unless null is passed as the
value of the keyMap which will clear the keyMap of all entries.
Defaults to:
null
scope : String
The default scope to apply to key handlers which do not specify a scope. This is processed the same way as the scope of cfg-listeners. It defaults to the `"controller"`, but using `'this'` means that an instance method will be used.
Enables or disables processing keys in the keyMap. This value starts as
null and if it is null when initKeyMap is called, it will automatically
be set to true. Since initKeyMap is called by Ext.Component at the
proper time, this is not something application code normally handles.
Defaults to:
null
The name of the member that should be used to listen for keydown/keypress events. This is intended to be controlled at the class level not per instance.
Defaults to:
'el'
A config object containing one or more event handlers to be added to this object during initialization. This should be a valid listeners config object as specified in the addListener example for attaching multiple handlers at once.
DOM events from Ext JS Ext.Component
While some Ext JS Component classes export selected DOM events (e.g. "click", "mouseover" etc), this is usually
only done when extra value can be added. For example the DataView's itemclick event passing the node clicked on. To access DOM events directly from a
child element of a Component, we need to specify the element option to identify the Component property to add a
DOM listener to:
new Ext.panel.Panel({
width: 400,
height: 200,
dockedItems: [{
xtype: 'toolbar'
}],
listeners: {
click: {
element: 'el', //bind to the underlying el property on the panel
fn: function(){ console.log('click el'); }
},
dblclick: {
element: 'body', //bind to the underlying body property on the panel
fn: function(){ console.log('dblclick body'); }
}
}
});
An alias for addListener. In versions prior to 5.1, listeners had a generated setter which could be called to add listeners. In 5.1 the listeners config is not processed using the config system and has no generated setter, so this method is provided for backward compatibility. The preferred way of adding listeners is to use the on method.
listeners : Object
The key used to identify this trigger in the text field's triggers config.
Defaults to:
null
Set to true for this component's name property to be tracked by its containing
nameHolder.
Defaults to:
false
This config describes one or more plugin config objects used to create plugin instances for this component.
Plugins are a way to bundle and reuse custom functionality. Plugins should extend
Ext.plugin.Abstract but technically the only requirement for a valid plugin
is that it contain an init method that accepts a reference to its owner. Once
a plugin is created, the owner will call the init method, passing a reference
to itself. Each plugin can then call methods or respond to events on its owner
as needed to provide its functionality.
This config's value can take several different forms.
The value can be a single string with the plugin's Ext.enums.Plugin:
var list = Ext.create({
xtype: 'list',
itemTpl: '<div class="item">{title}</div>',
store: 'Items',
plugins: 'listpaging'
});
It can also be an array of plugin aliases:
var list = Ext.create({
xtype: 'list',
itemTpl: '<div class="item">{title}</div>',
store: 'Items',
plugins: ['listpaging', 'pullrefresh']
});
An array can also contain elements that are config objects with a type
property holding the type alias:
var list = Ext.create({
xtype: 'list',
itemTpl: '<div class="item">{title}</div>',
store: 'Items',
plugins: ['pullrefresh', {
type: 'listpaging',
autoPaging: true
}]
});
A final, yet very useful form (new in version 6.5) is the keyed-object form:
var list = Ext.create({
xtype: 'list',
itemTpl: '<div class="item">{title}</div>',
store: 'Items',
plugins: {
pullrefresh: true,
listpaging: {
autoPaging: true,
weight: 10
}
}
});
In this last form, the keys are id's as well as the default type alias. The
advantage of this form is that the value of the plugins is merged by base
class to derived class and finally to the instance configuration. This allows
classes to define a set of plugins and allow derived classes or instantiators
to configure or disable these plugins. This merge behavior is a feature of the
config.
In the above examples, the string "listpaging" is the type alias for
Ext.dataview.plugin.ListPaging. The full alias includes the "plugin." prefix
(i.e., 'plugin.listpaging').
Defaults to:
null
Returns the value of plugins
Sets the value of plugins
plugins : Array / Ext.enums.Plugin / Object / Ext.plugin.Abstract
One or more names of config properties that this component should publish to its ViewModel. Generally speaking, only properties defined in a class config block (including ancestor config blocks and mixins) are eligible for publishing to the viewModel. Some components override this and publish their most useful configs by default.
Note: We'll discuss publishing properties not found in the config block below.
Values determined to be invalid by component (often form fields and model validations) will not be published to the ViewModel.
This config uses the cfg-reference to determine the name of the data
object to place in the ViewModel. If reference is not set then this config
is ignored.
By using this config and cfg-reference you can bind configs between
components. For example:
...
items: [{
xtype: 'textfield',
reference: 'somefield', // component's name in the ViewModel
publishes: 'value' // value is not published by default
},{
...
},{
xtype: 'displayfield',
bind: 'You have entered "{somefield.value}"'
}]
...
Classes must provide this config as an Object:
Ext.define('App.foo.Bar', {
publishes: {
foo: true,
bar: true
}
});
This is required for the config system to properly merge values from derived classes.
For instances this value can be specified as a value as show above or an array or object as follows:
{
xtype: 'textfield',
reference: 'somefield',
publishes: [
'value',
'rawValue',
'dirty'
]
}
// This achieves the same result as the above array form.
{
xtype: 'textfield',
reference: 'somefield',
publishes: {
value: true,
rawValue: true,
dirty: true
}
}
In some cases, users may want to publish a property to the viewModel that is not found in a class config block. In these situations, you may utilize publishState if the property has a setter method. Let's use setFieldLabel as an example:
setFieldLabel: function(fieldLabel) {
this.callParent(arguments);
this.publishState('fieldLabel', fieldLabel);
}
With the above chunk of code, fieldLabel may now be published to the viewModel.
Defaults to:
null
Available since: 5.0.0
Specifies a name for this component inside its component hierarchy. This name must be unique within its view or its Ext.app.ViewController. See the documentation in Ext.container.Container for more information about references.
Note: Valid identifiers start with a letter or underscore and are followed by zero or more additional letters, underscores or digits. References are case sensitive.
Defaults to:
null
Optional element to render this Component to. Not required if this component is an item of a Container of a Container.
Defaults to:
null
Set to truthy, Color or Object value for the ripple.
Defaults to:
null
Available since: 6.5.0
color : String
The background color of the ripple.
position : Array
Position for the ripple to start at [x,y]. Determines if a Ripple effect should happen whenever this element is pressed. For example: { ripple: true } Or: { ripple: { color: 'red' } } For complex components, individual elements can suppress ripples by adding the `x-no-ripple` class to disable rippling for a tree of elements.
If provided this creates a new Session instance for this component. If this
is a Container, this will then be inherited by all child components.
To create a new session you can specify true:
Ext.create({
xtype: 'viewport',
session: true,
items: [{
...
}]
});
Alternatively, a config object can be provided:
Ext.create({
xtype: 'viewport',
session: {
...
},
items: [{
...
}]
});
Defaults to:
null
Sets the value of session
session : Boolean / Object / Ext.data.Session
The side of the text field's input to render the trigger on.
Defaults to:
'right'
Additional CSS styles that will be rendered into an inline style attribute when the widget is rendered.
You can pass either a string syntax:
style: 'background:red'
Or by using an object:
style: {
background: 'red'
}
When using the object syntax, you can define CSS Properties by using a string:
style: {
'border-left': '1px solid red'
}
Although the object syntax is much easier to read, we suggest you to use the string syntax for better performance.
Defaults to:
null
Emulates the behavior of the CSS touch-action property in a cross-browser compatible manner.
Keys in this object are touch action names, and values are false to disable
a touch action or true to enable it. Accepted keys are:
panXpanYpinchZoomdoubleTapZoomAll touch actions are enabled (true) by default, so it is usually only necessary
to specify which touch actions to disable. For example, the following disables
only horizontal scrolling and pinch-to-zoom on the component's main element:
touchAction: {
panX: false,
pinchZoom: false
}
Touch actions can be specified on reference elements using the reference element name, for example:
// disables horizontal scrolling on the main element, and double-tap-zoom
// on the child element named "body"
touchAction: {
panY: false
body: {
doubleTapZoom: false
}
}
The primary motivation for setting the touch-action of an element is to prevent the browser's default handling of a gesture such as pinch-to-zoom, or drag-to-scroll, so that the application can implement its own handling of that gesture on the element. Suppose, for example, a component has a custom drag handler on its element and wishes to prevent horizontal scrolling of its container while it is being dragged:
Ext.create('Ext.Widget', {
touchAction: {
panX: false
},
listeners: {
drag: function(e) {
// implement drag logic
}
}
});
Defaults to:
null
The triggers contained in this trigger (only applicable for trigger groups)
Defaults to:
null
This object holds a map of config properties that will update their binding
as they are modified. For example, value is a key added by form fields. The
form of this config is the same as publishes.
This config is defined so that updaters are not created and added for all bound properties since most cannot be modified by the end-user and hence are not appropriate for two-way binding.
Defaults to:
null
The ui or uis to be used on this Component
When a ui is configured, CSS class names are added to the element, created by appending the ui name(s) to each classCls and/or baseCls.
Defaults to:
null
One or more CSS classes to add to the component's primary element. This config is intended solely for use by the component instantiator (the "user"), not by derived classes.
For example:
items: [{
xtype: 'button',
userCls: 'my-button'
...
}]
Defaults to:
null
The ViewModel is a data provider for this component and its children. The
data contained in the ViewModel is typically used by adding bind configs
to the components that want present or edit this data.
When set, the ViewModel is created and links to any inherited viewModel
instance from an ancestor container as the "parent". The ViewModel hierarchy,
once established, only supports creation or destruction of children. The
parent of a ViewModel cannot be changed on the fly.
If this is a root-level ViewModel, the data model connection is made to this
component's associated Ext.data.Session. This is
determined by calling getInheritedSession.
Defaults to:
null
Sets the value of viewModel
viewModel : String / Object / Ext.app.ViewModel
The width of this Component; must be a valid CSS length value, e.g: 300, 100px, 30%, etc.
By default, if this is not explicitly set, this Component's element will simply have its own natural size.
If set to auto, it will set the width to null meaning it will have its own natural size.
Defaults to:
null
The value true causes config values to be stored on instances using a
property name prefixed with an underscore ("_") character. A value of false
stores config values as properties using their exact name (no prefix).
Defaults to:
true
Available since: 5.0.0
The value true instructs the initConfig method to only honor values for
properties declared in the config block of a class. When false, properties
that are not declared in a config block will be placed on the instance.
Defaults to:
true
Available since: 5.0.0
Matches options property names within a listeners specification object - property names which are never used as event names.
Defaults to:
{
scope: 1,
delay: 1,
buffer: 1,
onFrame: 1,
single: 1,
args: 1,
destroyable: 1,
priority: 1,
order: 1
}
We don't want the base destructor to clear the prototype because our destroyObservable handler must be called the very last. It will take care of the prototype after completing Observable destruction sequence.
Defaults to:
true
The name of the Component property that holds a reference to the Element that serves as that Component's ARIA element. This property will be replaced with the actual Element reference after rendering.
Most of the simple Components will have their main element as ariaEl.
Defaults to:
'el'
Available since: 6.0.0
Instance specific ARIA attributes to render into Component's ariaEl. This object is only used during rendering, and is discarded afterwards.
ARIA role for this Component, defaults to no role. With no role, no other ARIA attributes are set.
The base CSS class to apply to this widget's element.
Used as the prefix for ui-specific class names.
Defaults to the value of classCls or (x- + the xtype) of the widget
if classCls is null
Defaults to:
null
A CSS class to apply to the main element that will be inherited down the class hierarchy. Subclasses may override this property on their prototype to add their own CSS class in addition to the CSS classes inherited from ancestor classes via the prototype chain. For example
Ext.define('Foo', {
extend: 'Ext.Widget',
classCls: 'foo'
});
Ext.define('Bar', {
extend: 'Foo',
classCls: 'bar'
});
var bar = new Bar();
console.log(bar.element.className); // outputs 'foo bar'
Defaults to:
null
When set to true during widget class definition, that class will be the "root" for
classCls inheritance. Derived classes may set this to true to avoid
inheriting a classCls from their superclass.
Defaults to:
true
Setting this property to false will prevent nulling object references
on a Class instance after destruction. Setting this to "async" will delay
the clearing for approx 50ms.
Defaults to:
true
Available since: 6.2.0
Setting this property to true will result in setting the object's
prototype to null after the destruction sequence is fully completed.
After that, most attempts at calling methods on the object instance
will result in "method not defined" exception. This can be very helpful
with tracking down otherwise hard to find bugs like runaway Ajax requests,
timed functions not cleared on destruction, etc.
Note that this option can only work in browsers that support Object.setPrototypeOf
method, and is only available in debugging mode.
Defaults to:
false
Available since: 6.2.0
true if this currently focused element
is within this Component's or Container's hierarchy. This property is set separately
from hasFocus, and can be true when hasFocus is false.
Examples:
Text field with input element focused would be: focusable: true, hasFocus: true, containsFocus: true
Date field with drop-down picker currently focused would be: focusable: true, hasFocus: false, containsFocus: true
Form Panel with a child input field currently focused would be: focusable: false, hasFocus: false, containsFocus: true
See also hasFocus.
Defaults to:
false
This property is used to determine the property of a bind config that is just
the value. For example, if defaultBindProperty="value", then this shorthand
bind config:
bind: '{name}'
Is equivalent to this object form:
bind: {
value: '{name}'
}
The defaultBindProperty is set to "value" for form fields and to "store" for
grids and trees.
Defaults to:
null
This property is set to true after the destroy method is called.
Defaults to:
false
A configuration object for Ext.Element.create() that is used to create the Element template. Subclasses should avoid overriding this property and instead add elements using template.
Supports all the standard options of a Ext.Element.create() config and adds 3 additional options:
reference - this option specifies a name for Element references. These
references names become properties of the Widget instance and refer to Ext.Element
instances that were created using the template:
element: {
reference: 'element',
children: [{
reference: 'innerElement'
}]
}
After construction of a widget the reference elements are accessible as follows:
var foo = new FooWidget(),
innerEl = foo.innerElement; // an Ext.Element that wraps the innerElement
The reference attribute is optional, but all Widgets must have a 'element'
reference on some element within the template (usually the outermost one).
listeners - a standard listeners object as specified by Ext.mixin.Observable.
element: {
reference: 'element',
listeners: {
click: 'onClick'
},
children: [{
reference: 'innerElement',
listeners: {
click: 'onInnerClick'
}
}]
}
Since listeners cannot be attached without an Ext.Element reference the reference
property MUST be specified in order to use listeners.
The Widget instance is used as the scope for all listeners specified in this way,
so it is invalid to use the scope option in the listeners config since it will
always be overwritten using this.
uiCls - a suffix to be appended to the ui-specific CSS class for each ui
for this widget. These ui classes are constructed by appending the ui to each
classCls or baseCls for the widget. As such, uiCls should
never be used on the main element reference, as its uiCls is computed automatically.For example, assume a widget is defined with a ui of 'alt action' and a
uiCls of 'inner-el' on its innerElement reference element:
Ext.define('Doodad', {
extend: 'Ext.Widget',
xtype: 'doodad',
classCls: 'x-doodad',
ui: 'alt action',
element: {
reference: 'element',
children: [{
reference: 'innerElement',
cls: 'x-inner-el',
uiCls: 'inner-el'
}]
}
});
This would result in the following markup when rendered:
<div class="x-doodad x-doodad-alt x-doodad-action">
<div class="x-inner-el x-doodad-inner-el x-doodad-alt-inner-el x-doodad-action-inner-el"></div>
</div>
These additional classes can be used to style the reference element for a particular
ui; however, use of uiCls is not typically necessary or recommended. Reference
elements should usually be styled using simple descendant selectors:
.x-doodad-alt .x-inner-el {
color: red;
}
When there is a possibility that widgets can be nested it is best to use direct child selectors to avoid the possibility of selecting all descendants instead of just the reference element for the intended widget:
.x-doodad-alt > .x-inner-el {
color: red;
}
Only use uiCls when there is a possibility of nesting, AND there may be a variable
number of elements between the main element and the reference element in question.
For example, Ext.Container with docked items has a different number of elements
in between its element and its bodyElement than a Container without docked items
because of the wrapping elements that are dynamically added to support docking.
To ensure it does not style all descendants it must use a uiCls to style its
bodyElement:
.x-container-alt-body-el {
background: #fff;
}
Note that when uiCls is specified it also adds a class name that does not contain
the ui using just the classCls and/or baseCls as the prefix. This class name
can be used for base-level styling that does not relate to any particular UI:
.x-container-body-el {
position: relative;
}
Defaults to:
{
reference: 'element'
}
Initial suspended call count. Incremented when suspendEvents is called, decremented when resumeEvents is called.
Defaults to:
0
If this property is specified by the target class of this mixin its properties are
used to configure the created Ext.Factory.
true for keyboard interactive Components or Widgets, false otherwise.
For Containers, this property reflects interactiveness of the
Container itself, not its children. See isFocusable.
Note: It is not enough to set this property to true to make
a component keyboard interactive. You also need to make sure that
the component's focusEl is reachable via Tab key (tabbable).
See also tabIndex.
Defaults to:
false
The element that will have the focusCls applied when component's focusEl is focused.
The element that will be focused when focus method is called on this component. Usually this is the same element that receives focus via mouse clicks, taps, and pressing Tab key.
Defaults to:
'el'
true if this component's focusEl is focused.
See also containsFocus.
Defaults to:
false
This object holds a key for any event that has a listener. The listener may be set directly on the instance, or on its class or a super class (via observe) or on the Ext.app.EventBus. The values of this object are truthy (a non-zero number) and falsy (0 or undefined). They do not represent an exact count of listeners. The value for an event is truthy if the event must be fired and is falsy if there is no need to fire the event.
The intended use of this property is to avoid the expense of fireEvent calls when there are no listeners. This can be particularly helpful when one would otherwise have to call fireEvent hundreds or thousands of times. It is used like this:
if (this.hasListeners.foo) {
this.fireEvent('foo', this, arg1);
}
Template method to do any Focusable related initialization that does not involve event listeners creation.
Defaults to:
Ext.emptyFn
This property is set to true during the call to initConfig.
Defaults to:
false
Available since: 5.0.0
This property is set to true if this instance is the first of its class.
Defaults to:
false
Available since: 5.0.0
This value is true and is used to identify plain objects from instances of
a defined class.
Defaults to:
true
true in this class to identify an object as an instantiated Observable, or subclass thereof.
Defaults to:
true
The CSS class to add to this component should not have a border.
Defaults to:
Ext.baseCSSPrefix + 'noborder-trbl'
Get the reference to the current class from which this object was instantiated. Unlike Ext.Base#statics,
this.self is scope-dependent and it's meant to be used for dynamic inheritance. See Ext.Base#statics
for a detailed comparison
Ext.define('My.Cat', {
statics: {
speciesName: 'Cat' // My.Cat.speciesName = 'Cat'
},
constructor: function() {
alert(this.self.speciesName); // dependent on 'this'
},
clone: function() {
return new this.self();
}
});
Ext.define('My.SnowLeopard', {
extend: 'My.Cat',
statics: {
speciesName: 'Snow Leopard' // My.SnowLeopard.speciesName = 'Snow Leopard'
}
});
var cat = new My.Cat(); // alerts 'Cat'
var snowLeopard = new My.SnowLeopard(); // alerts 'Snow Leopard'
var clone = snowLeopard.clone();
alert(Ext.getClassName(clone)); // alerts 'My.SnowLeopard'
Defaults to:
Base
An array of child elements to use as the children of the main element in the element template. Only used if "children" are not specified explicitly in the element template.
Defaults to:
[]
A map that tracks all reference elements configured with a uiCls.
Contains the element reference by default since the element always gets
non-suffixed ui-specific CSS class names added to it (see syncUiCls)
Regular expression used for validating reference values.
Defaults to:
/^[a-z_][a-z0-9_]*$/i
Adds declarative listeners as nested arrays of listener objects.
listeners : Array
Creates a particular plugin type if defined in the plugins configuration.
Available since: 6.2.0
type : String
Ensures that the given property (if it is a Config System config) has a proper "updater" method on this instance to sync changes to the config.
Available since: 5.0.0
property : String
Adds a CSS class (or classes) to this Component's rendered element.
cls : String/String[]
prefix : String (optional)
Defaults to: ""

Adds a listeners with the "delegate" event option. Users should not invoke this method directly. Use the "delegate" event option of addListener instead.
eventName : Object
fn : Object
scope : Object
options : Object
order : Object
caller : Object
manager : Object
This method applies a versioned, deprecation declaration to this class. This
is typically called by the deprecated config.
deprecations : Object
Adds an element reference to this Widget instance.
name : String
domNode : HTMLElement
Reduces instantiation time for a Widget by lazily instantiating Ext.Element references the first time they are used. This optimization only works for elements with no listeners specified.
name : String
domNode : HTMLElement
The on method is shorthand for addListener.
Appends an event handler to this object. For example:
myGridPanel.on("itemclick", this.onItemClick, this);
The method also allows for a single argument to be passed which is a config object containing properties which specify multiple events. For example:
myGridPanel.on({
cellclick: this.onCellClick,
select: this.onSelect,
viewready: this.onViewReady,
scope: this // Important. Ensure "this" is correct during handler execution
});
One can also specify options for each event handler separately:
myGridPanel.on({
cellclick: {fn: this.onCellClick, scope: this, single: true},
viewready: {fn: panel.onViewReady, scope: panel}
});
Names of methods in a specified scope may also be used:
myGridPanel.on({
cellclick: {fn: 'onCellClick', scope: this, single: true},
viewready: {fn: 'onViewReady', scope: panel}
});
eventName : String/Object
fn : Function/String (optional)
scope : Object (optional)
options : Object (optional)
scope : Object
The scope (this reference) in which the handler function is executed. If omitted,
defaults to the object which fired the event.
delay : Number
The number of milliseconds to delay the invocation of the handler after the event fires.
single : Boolean
True to add a handler to handle just the next firing of the event, and then remove itself.
buffer : Number
Causes the handler to be scheduled to run in an Ext.util.DelayedTask delayed by the specified number of milliseconds. If the event fires again within that time, the original handler is not invoked, but the new handler is scheduled in its place.
onFrame : Number
Causes the handler to be scheduled to run at the next animation frame event. If the event fires again before that time, the handler is not rescheduled - the handler will only be called once when the next animation frame is fired, with the last set of arguments passed.
target : Ext.util.Observable
Only call the handler if the event was fired on the target Observable, not if the event was bubbled up from a child Observable.
element : String
This option is only valid for listeners bound to Ext.Component. The name of a Component property which references an Ext.dom.Element to add a listener to.
This option is useful during Component construction to add DOM event listeners to elements of Ext.Component which will exist only after the Component is rendered.
For example, to add a click listener to a Panel's body:
var panel = new Ext.panel.Panel({
title: 'The title',
listeners: {
click: this.handlePanelClick,
element: 'body'
}
});
In order to remove listeners attached using the element, you'll need to reference the element itself as seen below.
panel.body.un(...)
delegate : String (optional)
A simple selector to filter the event target or look for a descendant of the target.
The "delegate" option is only available on Ext.dom.Element instances (or when attaching a listener to a Ext.dom.Element via a Component using the element option).
See the delegate example below.
capture : Boolean (optional)
When set to true, the listener is fired in the capture phase of the event propagation
sequence, instead of the default bubble phase.
The capture option is only available on Ext.dom.Element instances (or
when attaching a listener to a Ext.dom.Element via a Component using the
element option).
stopPropagation : Boolean (optional)
This option is only valid for listeners bound to Ext.dom.Element.
true to call stopPropagation on the event object
before firing the handler.
preventDefault : Boolean (optional)
This option is only valid for listeners bound to Ext.dom.Element.
true to call preventDefault on the event object
before firing the handler.
stopEvent : Boolean (optional)
This option is only valid for listeners bound to Ext.dom.Element.
true to call stopEvent on the event object
before firing the handler.
args : Array (optional)
Optional arguments to pass to the handler function. Any additional arguments passed to fireEvent will be appended to these arguments.
destroyable : Boolean (optional)
When specified as true, the function returns a destroyable object. An object
which implements the destroy method which removes all listeners added in this call.
This syntax can be a helpful shortcut to using un; particularly when
removing multiple listeners. NOTE - not compatible when using the element
option. See un for the proper syntax for removing listeners added using the
element config.
Defaults to:
false
priority : Number (optional)
An optional numeric priority that determines the order in which event handlers are run. Event handlers with no priority will be run as if they had a priority of 0. Handlers with a higher priority will be prioritized to run sooner than those with a lower priority. Negative numbers can be used to set a priority lower than the default. Internally, the framework uses a range of 1000 or greater, and -1000 or lesser for handlers that are intended to run before or after all others, so it is recommended to stay within the range of -999 to 999 when setting the priority of event handlers in application-level code. A priority must be an integer to be valid. Fractional values are reserved for internal framework use.
order : String (optional)
A legacy option that is provided for backward compatibility.
It is recommended to use the priority option instead. Available options are:
'before': equal to a priority of 100'current': equal to a priority of 0 or default priority'after': equal to a priority of -100Defaults to:
'current'
order : String (optional)
Defaults to: 'current'
The addManagedListener method is used when some object (call it "A") is listening to an event on another observable object ("B") and you want to remove that listener from "B" when "A" is destroyed. This is not an issue when "B" is destroyed because all of its listeners will be removed at that time.
Example:
Ext.define('Foo', {
extend: 'Ext.Component',
initComponent: function () {
this.addManagedListener(MyApp.SomeGlobalSharedMenu, 'show', this.doSomething);
this.callParent();
}
});
As you can see, when an instance of Foo is destroyed, it ensures that the 'show'
listener on the menu (MyApp.SomeGlobalSharedMenu) is also removed.
As of version 5.1 it is no longer necessary to use this method in most cases because
listeners are automatically managed if the scope object provided to
addListener is an Observable instance.
However, if the observable instance and scope are not the same object you
still need to use mon or addManagedListener if you want the listener to be
managed.

Bubbles up the getRefOwner hierarchy, calling the specified function
with each component. The scope (this reference) of the function call will be the
scope provided or the current component. The arguments to the function will
be the args provided or the current component. If the function returns false at any
point, the bubble is stopped.
fn : Function
scope : Object (optional)
args : Array (optional)
Call the original method that was previously overridden with Ext.Base#override
Ext.define('My.Cat', {
constructor: function() {
alert("I'm a cat!");
}
});
My.Cat.override({
constructor: function() {
alert("I'm going to be a cat!");
this.callOverridden();
alert("Meeeeoooowwww");
}
});
var kitty = new My.Cat(); // alerts "I'm going to be a cat!"
// alerts "I'm a cat!"
// alerts "Meeeeoooowwww"
args : Array/Arguments
Deprecated since version 4.1.0
Call the "parent" method of the current method. That is the method previously overridden by derivation or by an override (see Ext#define).
Ext.define('My.Base', {
constructor: function (x) {
this.x = x;
},
statics: {
method: function (x) {
return x;
}
}
});
Ext.define('My.Derived', {
extend: 'My.Base',
constructor: function () {
this.callParent([21]);
}
});
var obj = new My.Derived();
alert(obj.x); // alerts 21
This can be used with an override as follows:
Ext.define('My.DerivedOverride', {
override: 'My.Derived',
constructor: function (x) {
this.callParent([x*2]); // calls original My.Derived constructor
}
});
var obj = new My.Derived();
alert(obj.x); // now alerts 42
This also works with static and private methods.
Ext.define('My.Derived2', {
extend: 'My.Base',
// privates: {
statics: {
method: function (x) {
return this.callParent([x*2]); // calls My.Base.method
}
}
});
alert(My.Base.method(10)); // alerts 10
alert(My.Derived2.method(10)); // alerts 20
Lastly, it also works with overridden static methods.
Ext.define('My.Derived2Override', {
override: 'My.Derived2',
// privates: {
statics: {
method: function (x) {
return this.callParent([x*2]); // calls My.Derived2.method
}
}
});
alert(My.Derived2.method(10); // now alerts 40
To override a method and replace it and also call the superclass method, use method-callSuper. This is often done to patch a method to fix a bug.
args : Array/Arguments
This method is used by an override to call the superclass method but bypass any overridden method. This is often done to "patch" a method that contains a bug but for whatever reason cannot be fixed directly.
Consider:
Ext.define('Ext.some.Class', {
method: function () {
console.log('Good');
}
});
Ext.define('Ext.some.DerivedClass', {
extend: 'Ext.some.Class',
method: function () {
console.log('Bad');
// ... logic but with a bug ...
this.callParent();
}
});
To patch the bug in Ext.some.DerivedClass.method, the typical solution is to create an
override:
Ext.define('App.patches.DerivedClass', {
override: 'Ext.some.DerivedClass',
method: function () {
console.log('Fixed');
// ... logic but with bug fixed ...
this.callSuper();
}
});
The patch method cannot use method-callParent to call the superclass
method since that would call the overridden method containing the bug. In
other words, the above patch would only produce "Fixed" then "Good" in the
console log, whereas, using callParent would produce "Fixed" then "Bad"
then "Good".
args : Array/Arguments
Clears all listeners that were attached using the "delegate" event option. Users should not invoke this method directly. It is called automatically as part of normal clearListeners processing.
Converts the provided type or config object into a plugin instance.
config : String/Object/Ext.plugin.Abstract
Creates an event handling function which re-fires the event from this object as the passed event name.
newName : String
beginEnd : Array (optional)
Destroys the Widget. This method should not be overridden in custom Widgets, because it sets the flags and does final cleanup that must go last. Instead, override doDestroy method to add functionality at destruction time.
Destroys member properties by name.
If a property name is the name of a config, the getter is not invoked, so if the config has not been initialized, nothing will be done.
The property will be destroyed, and the corrected name (if the property is a config
and config names are prefixed) will set to null in this object's dictionary.
args : String...
Removes and destroys a plugin.
Note: Not all plugins are designed to be removable. Consult the documentation for the specific plugin in question to be sure.
Available since: 6.2.0
plugin : String/Ext.plugin.Abstract
name : Object
fn : Object
scope : Object
options : Object
order : Object
caller : Object
manager : Object
Perform the actual destruction sequence. This is the method to override in your subclasses to add steps specific to the destruction of custom Component or Widget.
As a rule of thumb, subclasses should destroy their child Components, Elements, and/or other objects before calling parent method. Any object references will be nulled after this method has finished, to prevent the possibility of memory leaks.
Available since: 6.2.0
Fires a delegated event. Users should not invoke this method directly. It is called automatically by the framework as needed (see the "delegate" event option of addListener for more details.
eventName : Object
args : Object
Continue to fire event.
eventName : String
args : Array
bubbles : Boolean
Enables events fired by this Observable to bubble up an owner hierarchy by calling this.getBubbleTarget() if
present. There is no implementation in the Observable base class.
This is commonly used by Ext.Components to bubble events to owner Containers. See Ext.Component#getBubbleTarget. The default implementation in Ext.Component returns the Component's immediate owner. But if a known target is required, this can be overridden to access the required target more quickly.
Example:
Ext.define('Ext.overrides.form.field.Base', {
override: 'Ext.form.field.Base',
// Add functionality to Field's initComponent to enable the change event to bubble
initComponent: function () {
this.callParent();
this.enableBubble('change');
}
});
var myForm = Ext.create('Ext.form.Panel', {
title: 'User Details',
items: [{
...
}],
listeners: {
change: function() {
// Title goes red if form has been modified.
myForm.header.setStyle('color', 'red');
}
}
});
eventNames : String/String[]
Finds an alternate Component to focus if this Component is disabled while focused, or focused while disabled, or otherwise unable to focus.
In both cases, focus must not be lost to document.body, but must move to an intuitively connectible Component, either a sibling, or uncle or nephew.
This is both for the convenience of keyboard users, and also for when focus is tracked within a Component tree such as for ComboBoxes and their dropdowns.
For example, a ComboBox with a PagingToolbar in is BoundList. If the "Next Page" button is hit, the LoadMask shows and focuses, the next page is the last page, so the "Next Page" button is disabled. When the LoadMask hides, it attempt to focus the last focused Component which is the disabled "Next Page" button. In this situation, focus should move to a sibling within the PagingToolbar.
Retrieves plugin by its type alias. For example:
var list = Ext.create({
xtype: 'list',
itemTpl: '<div class="item">{title}</div>',
store: 'Items',
plugins: ['listpaging', 'pullrefresh']
});
list.findPlugin('pullrefresh').setPullRefreshText('Pull to refresh...');
Note: See also getPlugin.
Available since: 6.2.0
type : String
Fires the specified event with the passed parameters and executes a function (action).
By default, the action function will be executed after any "before" event handlers
(as specified using the order option of
addListener), but before any other
handlers are fired. This gives the "before" handlers an opportunity to
cancel the event by returning false, and prevent the action function from
being called.
The action can also be configured to run after normal handlers, but before any "after"
handlers (as specified using the order event option) by passing 'after'
as the order parameter. This configuration gives any event handlers except
for "after" handlers the opportunity to cancel the event and prevent the action
function from being called.
eventName : String
args : Array
fn : Function
scope : Object (optional)
options : Object (optional)
order : String (optional)
Defaults to: 'before'
Deprecated since version 5.5
Fires the specified event with the passed parameters (minus the event name, plus the options object passed
to addListener).
An event may be set to bubble up an Observable parent hierarchy (See Ext.Component#getBubbleTarget) by calling enableBubble.
eventName : String
args : Object...
Fires the specified event with the passed parameter list.
An event may be set to bubble up an Observable parent hierarchy (See Ext.Component#getBubbleTarget) by calling enableBubble.
eventName : String
args : Object[]
Fires the specified event with the passed parameters and executes a function (action). Evented Actions will automatically dispatch a 'before' event passing. This event will be given a special controller that allows for pausing/resuming of the event flow.
By pausing the controller the updater and events will not run until resumed. Pausing, however, will not stop the processing of any other before events.
eventName : String
args : Array
fn : Function/String
scope : Object (optional)
fnArgs : Array/Boolean (optional)
Try to focus this component.
If this component is disabled or otherwise not focusable, a close relation will be targeted for focus instead to keep focus localized for keyboard users.
selectText : Boolean/Number[] (optional)
Find component(s) that label or describe this component, and return the id(s) of their ariaEl elements.
reference : Function/String/String[] (optional)
Gets the bubbling parent for an Observable
Returns a specified config property value. If the name parameter is not passed, all current configuration options will be returned as key value pairs.
name : String (optional)
peek : Boolean (optional)
Defaults to: false
ifInitialized : Boolean (optional)
Defaults to: false
A template method for modifying the element config before it is processed.
By default adds the result of this.getTemplate() as the children array of
element if children were not specified in the original
element config. Typically this method should not need to be implemented
in subclasses. Instead the element property should be use to configure
the element template for a given Widget subclass.
This method is called once when the first instance of each Widget subclass is created. The element config object that is returned is cached and used as the template for all successive instances. The scope object for this method is the class prototype, not the instance.
Returns the element used to apply focus styling CSS class when Focusable's focusEl becomes focused. By default it is focusEl.
focusEl : Ext.dom.Element (optional)
Returns the main focus holder element associated with this Focusable, i.e. the element that will be focused when Focusable's focus method is called. For most Focusables, this will be the focusEl.
Retrieves the id of this component. Will autogenerate an id if one has not already been set.
This method returns an object containing the inherited properties for this instance.
Available since: 5.0.0
inner : Boolean (optional)
Defaults to: false
This method returns the value of a config property that may be inherited from some ancestor.
In some cases, a config may be explicitly set on a component with the intent of
only being presented to its children while that component should act upon the
inherited value (see referenceHolder for example). In these cases the skipThis
parameter should be specified as true.
Available since: 5.0.0
property : String
skipThis : Boolean (optional)
Defaults to: false
Returns the initial configuration passed to the constructor when instantiating this class.
Given this example Ext.button.Button definition and instance:
Ext.define('MyApp.view.Button', {
extend: 'Ext.button.Button',
xtype: 'mybutton',
scale: 'large',
enableToggle: true
});
var btn = Ext.create({
xtype: 'mybutton',
renderTo: Ext.getBody(),
text: 'Test Button'
});
Calling btn.getInitialConfig() would return an object including the config
options passed to the create method:
xtype: 'mybutton',
renderTo: // The document body itself
text: 'Test Button'
Calling btn.getInitialConfig('text')returns 'Test Button'.
name : String (optional)
Retrieves a plugin by its id.
var list = Ext.create({
xtype: 'list',
itemTpl: '<div class="item">{title}</div>',
store: 'Items',
plugins: [{
type: 'pullrefresh',
id: 'foo'
}]
});
list.getPlugin('foo').setPullRefreshText('Pull to refresh...');
Note: See also findPlugin.
Available since: 6.2.0
id : String
Used by Ext.ComponentQuery, and the up method to find the owning Component in the linkage hierarchy.
By default this returns the Container which contains this Component.
This may be overridden by Component authors who implement ownership hierarchies which are not based upon ownerCt, such as BoundLists being owned by Fields or Menus being owned by Buttons.
Return the actual tabIndex for this Focusable.
Checks if the specified CSS class exists on this element's DOM node.
className : String
Checks to see if this object has any listeners for a specified event, or whether the event bubbles. The answer indicates whether the event needs firing or not.
eventName : String
This method triggers the lazy configs and must be called when it is time to
fully boot up. The configs that must be initialized are: bind, publishes,
session, twoWayBindable and viewModel.
Available since: 5.0.0
Initialize configuration for this class. a typical example:
Ext.define('My.awesome.Class', {
// The default config
config: {
name: 'Awesome',
isAwesome: true
},
constructor: function(config) {
this.initConfig(config);
}
});
var awesome = new My.awesome.Class({
name: 'Super Awesome'
});
alert(awesome.getName()); // 'Super Awesome'
instanceConfig : Object
Initializes the Element for this Widget instance. If this is the first time a Widget of this type has been instantiated the element config will be processed to create an Element. This Element is then cached on the prototype (see afterCachedConfig) so that future instances can obtain their element by simply cloning the Element that was cached by the first instance.
Called for the first instance of this Widget to create an object that contains the listener configs for all of the element references keyed by reference name. The object is cached on the prototype and has the following shape:
_elementListeners: {
element: {
click: 'onClick',
scope: this
},
fooReference: {
tap: {
fn: someFunction,
delay: 100
}
}
}
The returned object is prototype chained to the _elementListeners object of its superclass, and each key in the object is prototype chained to object with the corresponding key in the superclass _elementListeners. This allows element listeners to be inherited and overridden when subclassing widgets.
This method is invoked with the prototype object as the scope
elementConfig : Object
Sets up the focus listener on this Component's focusEl if it has one.
Form Components which must implicitly participate in tabbing order usually have a naturally
focusable element as their focusEl, and it is the DOM event of that
receiving focus which drives the Component's onFocus handling, and the DOM event of it
being blurred which drives the onBlur handling.
force : Object
Template method to do any event listener initialization for a Focusable. This generally happens after the focusEl is available.
force : Object
This method is called to initialize the inheritedState objects for this instance.
This amounts to typically copying certain properties from the instance to the given
object.
Available since: 5.0.0
inheritedState : Object
inheritedStateInner : Object (optional)
This method should be called when the instance is ready to start listening for
keyboard events. This is called automatically for Ext.Component and derived
classes. This is done after the component is rendered.
Initializes a "uiReference". Ui rerefences are reference elements that have classCls and ui info in their CSS class names. They can be used by setting uiCls in the template, or by invoking this method to setup the ui reference after element/template initialization (Toolable uses this for its dock wrapper)
referenceName : String
uiCls : String
isInstance : Boolean (optional)
Defaults to: false
This method marks the current inherited state as invalid. The next time a call is
made to getInherited the objects will be recreated and initialized.
Available since: 5.0.0
Tests whether this Widget matches a Ext.ComponentQuery selector string.
selector : String
Determines whether this Component is an ancestor of the passed Component.
This will return true if the passed Component is anywhere within the subtree
beneath this Component.
possibleDescendant : Ext.Component
Determines if the passed property name is bound to ViewModel data.
Available since: 6.5.0
name : String (optional)
Determines whether this component is the descendant of a passed component.
ancestor : Ext.Component
Determines if this Component is inside a Component tree which is destroyed, or is being destroyed.
Returns true if this Component is currently disabled.
Returns true if this Component is not currently disabled.
Determine if this Focusable can receive focus at this time.
Note that Containers can be non-focusable themselves while delegating focus treatment to a child Component; see Ext.Container for more information.

Returns true if this Component is currently visible.
A Widget is visible if its element is not hidden, and has been rendered and has not been destroyed.
deep : Boolean (optional)
Defaults to: false
Tests whether or not this Component is of a specific xtype. This can test whether this Component is descended
from the xtype (default) or whether it is directly of the xtype specified (shallow = true).
**If using your own subclasses, be aware that a Component must register its own xtype
to participate in determination of inherited xtypes.__
For a list of all available xtypes, see the Ext.Component header.
Example usage:
var t = new Ext.field.Text();
var isText = t.isXType('textfield'); // true
var isBoxSubclass = t.isXType('field'); // true, descended from Ext.field.Field
var isBoxInstance = t.isXType('field', true); // false, not a direct Ext.field.Field instance
xtype : String
shallow : Boolean (optional)
Adds a "destroyable" object to an internal list of objects that will be destroyed
when this instance is destroyed (via destroy).

Returns an update method for the given Config that will call publishState
to ensure two-way bindings (via bind) as well as any publishes are updated.
This method is cached on the cfg instance for re-use.
Available since: 5.0.0
cfg : Ext.Config
Shorthand for addManagedListener. The addManagedListener method is used when some object (call it "A") is listening to an event on another observable object ("B") and you want to remove that listener from "B" when "A" is destroyed. This is not an issue when "B" is destroyed because all of its listeners will be removed at that time.
Example:
Ext.define('Foo', {
extend: 'Ext.Component',
initComponent: function () {
this.addManagedListener(MyApp.SomeGlobalSharedMenu, 'show', this.doSomething);
this.callParent();
}
});
As you can see, when an instance of Foo is destroyed, it ensures that the 'show'
listener on the menu (MyApp.SomeGlobalSharedMenu) is also removed.
As of version 5.1 it is no longer necessary to use this method in most cases because
listeners are automatically managed if the scope object provided to
addListener is an Observable instance.
However, if the observable instance and scope are not the same object you
still need to use mon or addManagedListener if you want the listener to be
managed.
item : Ext.util.Observable/Ext.dom.Element
ename : Object/String
fn : Function/String (optional)
scope : Object (optional)
options : Object (optional)
Shorthand for removeManagedListener. Removes listeners that were added by the mon method.
item : Ext.util.Observable/Ext.dom.Element
ename : Object/String
fn : Function (optional)
scope : Object (optional)
The on method is shorthand for addListener.
Appends an event handler to this object. For example:
myGridPanel.on("itemclick", this.onItemClick, this);
The method also allows for a single argument to be passed which is a config object containing properties which specify multiple events. For example:
myGridPanel.on({
cellclick: this.onCellClick,
select: this.onSelect,
viewready: this.onViewReady,
scope: this // Important. Ensure "this" is correct during handler execution
});
One can also specify options for each event handler separately:
myGridPanel.on({
cellclick: {fn: this.onCellClick, scope: this, single: true},
viewready: {fn: panel.onViewReady, scope: panel}
});
Names of methods in a specified scope may also be used:
myGridPanel.on({
cellclick: {fn: 'onCellClick', scope: this, single: true},
viewready: {fn: 'onViewReady', scope: panel}
});
eventName : String/Object
fn : Function/String (optional)
scope : Object (optional)
options : Object (optional)
scope : Object
The scope (this reference) in which the handler function is executed. If omitted,
defaults to the object which fired the event.
delay : Number
The number of milliseconds to delay the invocation of the handler after the event fires.
single : Boolean
True to add a handler to handle just the next firing of the event, and then remove itself.
buffer : Number
Causes the handler to be scheduled to run in an Ext.util.DelayedTask delayed by the specified number of milliseconds. If the event fires again within that time, the original handler is not invoked, but the new handler is scheduled in its place.
onFrame : Number
Causes the handler to be scheduled to run at the next animation frame event. If the event fires again before that time, the handler is not rescheduled - the handler will only be called once when the next animation frame is fired, with the last set of arguments passed.
target : Ext.util.Observable
Only call the handler if the event was fired on the target Observable, not if the event was bubbled up from a child Observable.
element : String
This option is only valid for listeners bound to Ext.Component. The name of a Component property which references an Ext.dom.Element to add a listener to.
This option is useful during Component construction to add DOM event listeners to elements of Ext.Component which will exist only after the Component is rendered.
For example, to add a click listener to a Panel's body:
var panel = new Ext.panel.Panel({
title: 'The title',
listeners: {
click: this.handlePanelClick,
element: 'body'
}
});
In order to remove listeners attached using the element, you'll need to reference the element itself as seen below.
panel.body.un(...)
delegate : String (optional)
A simple selector to filter the event target or look for a descendant of the target.
The "delegate" option is only available on Ext.dom.Element instances (or when attaching a listener to a Ext.dom.Element via a Component using the element option).
See the delegate example below.
capture : Boolean (optional)
When set to true, the listener is fired in the capture phase of the event propagation
sequence, instead of the default bubble phase.
The capture option is only available on Ext.dom.Element instances (or
when attaching a listener to a Ext.dom.Element via a Component using the
element option).
stopPropagation : Boolean (optional)
This option is only valid for listeners bound to Ext.dom.Element.
true to call stopPropagation on the event object
before firing the handler.
preventDefault : Boolean (optional)
This option is only valid for listeners bound to Ext.dom.Element.
true to call preventDefault on the event object
before firing the handler.
stopEvent : Boolean (optional)
This option is only valid for listeners bound to Ext.dom.Element.
true to call stopEvent on the event object
before firing the handler.
args : Array (optional)
Optional arguments to pass to the handler function. Any additional arguments passed to fireEvent will be appended to these arguments.
destroyable : Boolean (optional)
When specified as true, the function returns a destroyable object. An object
which implements the destroy method which removes all listeners added in this call.
This syntax can be a helpful shortcut to using un; particularly when
removing multiple listeners. NOTE - not compatible when using the element
option. See un for the proper syntax for removing listeners added using the
element config.
Defaults to:
false
priority : Number (optional)
An optional numeric priority that determines the order in which event handlers are run. Event handlers with no priority will be run as if they had a priority of 0. Handlers with a higher priority will be prioritized to run sooner than those with a lower priority. Negative numbers can be used to set a priority lower than the default. Internally, the framework uses a range of 1000 or greater, and -1000 or lesser for handlers that are intended to run before or after all others, so it is recommended to stay within the range of -999 to 999 when setting the priority of event handlers in application-level code. A priority must be an integer to be valid. Fractional values are reserved for internal framework use.
order : String (optional)
A legacy option that is provided for backward compatibility.
It is recommended to use the priority option instead. Available options are:
'before': equal to a priority of 100'current': equal to a priority of 0 or default priority'after': equal to a priority of -100Defaults to:
'current'
order : String (optional)
Defaults to: 'current'
Appends an after-event handler.
Same as addListener with order set
to 'after'.
eventName : String/String[]/Object
fn : Function/String
scope : Object (optional)
options : Object (optional)
Appends a before-event handler. Returning false from the handler will stop the event.
Same as addListener with order set
to 'before'.
eventName : String/String[]/Object
fn : Function/String
scope : Object (optional)
options : Object (optional)

Recursively processes the element templates for this class and its superclasses, ascending the hierarchy until it reaches a superclass whose element template has already been processed. This method is invoked using the prototype as the scope.
Publish this components state to the ViewModel. If no arguments are given (or if
this is the first call), the entire state is published. This state is determined by
the publishes property.
This method is called only by component authors.
Available since: 5.0.0
property : String (optional)
value : Object (optional)
Relays selected events from the specified Observable as if the events were fired by this.
For example if you are extending Grid, you might decide to forward some events from store. So you can do this inside your initComponent:
this.relayEvents(this.getStore(), ['load']);
The grid instance will then have an observable 'load' event which will be passed the parameters of the store's load event and any function fired with the grid's load event would have access to the grid using the this keyword (unless the event is handled by a controller's control/listen event listener in which case 'this' will be the controller rather than the grid).
origin : Object
events : String[]/Object
prefix : String (optional)
Removes the given CSS class(es) from this widget's primary element.
cls : String/String[]
prefix : String (optional)
Defaults to: ""

Available since: 6.2.0
plugin : String/Ext.plugin.Abstract
destroy : Boolean (optional)
Replaces specified classes with the newly specified classes. It uses the addCls and removeCls methods, so if the class(es) you are removing don't exist, it will still add the new classes.
oldCls : String/String[]
newCls : String/String[]
prefix : String (optional)
Defaults to: ""
suffix : String (optional)
Defaults to: ""
Gets the default scope for firing late bound events (string names with no scope attached) at runtime.
defaultScope : Object (optional)

Available since: 5.1.1
satellite : Ext.mixin.Observable
defaultScope : Object (optional)
Resumes firing of the named event(s).
After calling this method to resume events, the events will fire when requested to fire.
Note that if the suspendEvent method is called multiple times for a certain event, this converse method will have to be called the same number of times for it to resume firing.
eventName : String...
Resumes firing events (see suspendEvents).
If events were suspended using the queueSuspended parameter, then all events fired
during event suspension will be sent to any listeners now.
discardQueue : Boolean (optional)
Sets a single/multiple configuration options.

Set the tabIndex property for this Focusable. If the focusEl is available, set tabIndex attribute on it, too.
newTabIndex : Number
Get the reference to the class from which this object was instantiated. Note that unlike Ext.Base#self,
this.statics() is scope-independent and it always returns the class from which it was called, regardless of what
this points to during run-time
Ext.define('My.Cat', {
statics: {
totalCreated: 0,
speciesName: 'Cat' // My.Cat.speciesName = 'Cat'
},
constructor: function() {
var statics = this.statics();
alert(statics.speciesName); // always equals to 'Cat' no matter what 'this' refers to
// equivalent to: My.Cat.speciesName
alert(this.self.speciesName); // dependent on 'this'
statics.totalCreated++;
},
clone: function() {
var cloned = new this.self(); // dependent on 'this'
cloned.groupName = this.statics().speciesName; // equivalent to: My.Cat.speciesName
return cloned;
}
});
Ext.define('My.SnowLeopard', {
extend: 'My.Cat',
statics: {
speciesName: 'Snow Leopard' // My.SnowLeopard.speciesName = 'Snow Leopard'
},
constructor: function() {
this.callParent();
}
});
var cat = new My.Cat(); // alerts 'Cat', then alerts 'Cat'
var snowLeopard = new My.SnowLeopard(); // alerts 'Cat', then alerts 'Snow Leopard'
var clone = snowLeopard.clone();
alert(Ext.getClassName(clone)); // alerts 'My.SnowLeopard'
alert(clone.groupName); // alerts 'Cat'
alert(My.Cat.totalCreated); // alerts 3
Suspends firing of the named event(s).
After calling this method to suspend events, the events will no longer fire when requested to fire.
Note that if this is called multiple times for a certain event, the converse method resumeEvent will have to be called the same number of times for it to resume firing.
eventName : String...
Suspends the firing of all events. (see resumeEvents)
queueSuspended : Boolean

method1: function() { ... }, // My.cool.Class.method1 = function() { ... };
method2: function() { ... } // My.cool.Class.method2 = function() { ... };
});
members : Object
Borrow another class' members to the prototype of this class.
Ext.define('Bank', {
money: '$$$',
printMoney: function() {
alert('$$$$$$$');
}
});
Ext.define('Thief', {
...
});
Thief.borrow(Bank, ['money', 'printMoney']);
var steve = new Thief();
alert(steve.money); // alerts '$$$'
steve.printMoney(); // alerts '$$$$$$$'
fromClass : Ext.Base
members : Array/String
Create a new instance of this Class.
Ext.define('My.cool.Class', {
...
});
My.cool.Class.create({
someConfig: true
});
All parameters are passed to the constructor of the class.
Create aliases for existing prototype methods. Example:
Ext.define('My.cool.Class', {
method1: function() { ... },
method2: function() { ... }
});
var test = new My.cool.Class();
My.cool.Class.createAlias({
method3: 'method1',
method4: 'method2'
});
test.method3(); // test.method1()
My.cool.Class.createAlias('method5', 'method3');
test.method5(); // test.method3() -> test.method1()
alias : String/Object
origin : String/Object
Returns the Ext.Configurator for this class.
Get the current class' name in string format.
Ext.define('My.cool.Class', {
constructor: function() {
alert(this.self.getName()); // alerts 'My.cool.Class'
}
});
My.cool.Class.getName(); // 'My.cool.Class'
Used internally by the mixins pre-processor
name : Object
mixinClass : Object
Override members of this class. Overridden methods can be invoked via callParent.
Ext.define('My.Cat', {
constructor: function() {
alert("I'm a cat!");
}
});
My.Cat.override({
constructor: function() {
alert("I'm going to be a cat!");
this.callParent(arguments);
alert("Meeeeoooowwww");
}
});
var kitty = new My.Cat(); // alerts "I'm going to be a cat!"
// alerts "I'm a cat!"
// alerts "Meeeeoooowwww"
Direct use of this method should be rare. Use Ext.define instead:
Ext.define('My.CatOverride', {
override: 'My.Cat',
constructor: function() {
alert("I'm going to be a cat!");
this.callParent(arguments);
alert("Meeeeoooowwww");
}
});
The above accomplishes the same result but can be managed by the Ext.Loader which can properly order the override and its target class and the build process can determine whether the override is needed based on the required state of the target class (My.Cat).
