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.
This class is used as a set of methods that are applied to the prototype of a Ext.data.Model to decorate it with a Node API. This means that models used in conjunction with a tree will have all of the tree related methods available on the model. In general, this class will not be used directly by the developer.
This class also creates extra fields on the model, if they do not exist, to help maintain the tree state and UI. These fields are documented as config options.
The data fields used to render a tree node are: text, leaf, children, and expanded. Once a node is loaded to the tree store you can use get() to fetch the value of a given field name (provided there is not a convenience accessor on the Node for that field).
The following configs have methods used to set the value / state of the node at runtime:
The remaining configs may be set using set().
node.set('text', 'Changed Text'); // example showing how to change the node label
The qtip, qtitle, and qshowDelay use QuickTips and requires initializing Ext.tip.QuickTipManager unless the application is created using Ext#method-application.
Ext.tip.QuickTipManager.init();
For additional information and examples see the description for Ext.tree.Panel.
Set to false to deny dragging of this node.
Applicable when using the TreeViewDragDrop plugin.
Defaults to:
true
Set to false to deny dropping on this node.
Applicable when using the TreeViewDragDrop plugin.
Defaults to:
true
Set to true or false to show a checkbox alongside this node.
To fetch an array of checked nodes use getChecked().
Defaults to:
null
Array of child nodes.
Note: By default the child nodes root is children, but can be set using the
reader rootProperty config on the
Ext.data.TreeStore proxy.
The number of parents this node has. A root node has depth 0, a child of it depth 1, and so on...
See getDepth.
False to prevent expanding/collapsing of this node.
See also: isExpandable.
Defaults to:
true
True if the node is expanded.
When the tree is asynchronously remote loaded, expanding a collapsed node loads the children of that node (if the node has not already been loaded previously).
See also: isExpanded.
Defaults to:
false
A numeric unicode character code to use as the icon. The default font-family
for glyphs can be set globally using
glyphFontFamily application
config or the Ext.setGlyphFontFamily() method.
It is initially set to 'Pictos'.
The following shows how to set the glyph using the font icons provided in the SDK (assuming the font-family has been configured globally):
// assumes the glyphFontFamily is "Pictos"
glyph: 'x48' // the "home" icon (H character)
// assumes the glyphFontFamily is "Pictos"
glyph: 72 // The "home" icon (H character)
// assumes the glyphFontFamily is "Pictos"
glyph: 'H' // the "home" icon
Alternatively, this config option accepts a string with the charCode and
font-family separated by the @ symbol.
// using Font Awesome
glyph: 'xf015@FontAwesome' // the "home" icon
// using Pictos
glyph: 'H@Pictos' // the "home" icon
Depending on the theme you're using, you may need include the font icon packages in your application in order to use the icons included in the SDK. For more information see:
Available since: 6.2.0
Path to an image to use as an icon.
For instructions on how you can use icon fonts including those distributed in the SDK see iconCls.
Defaults to:
null
One or more space separated CSS classes to be applied to the icon element. The CSS rule(s) applied should specify a background image to be used as the icon.
An example of specifying a custom icon class would be something like:
// specify the property in the config for the class:
iconCls: 'my-home-icon'
// css rule specifying the background image to be used as the icon image:
.my-home-icon {
background-image: url(../images/my-home-icon.gif) !important;
}
In addition to specifying your own classes, you can use the font icons provided in the SDK using the following syntax:
// using Font Awesome
iconCls: 'x-fa fa-home'
// using Pictos
iconCls: 'pictos pictos-home'
Depending on the theme you're using, you may need include the font icon packages in your application in order to use the icons included in the SDK. For more information see:
Defaults to:
null
The position of the node inside its parent. When parent has 4 children and the node is third amongst them, index will be 2.
Set to true to indicate that this child can have no children. The expand icon/arrow will then not be rendered for this node.
See also: isLeaf.
Defaults to:
false
The text to show on node label (html tags are accepted).
The default text for the root node is ROOT. All other nodes default to ''.
Note: By default the node label is text, but can be set using the tree's
displayField config.
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
An array of this nodes children. Array will be empty if this node has no children.
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
This property is set to true after the destroy method is called.
Defaults to:
false
A reference to this node's first child node. null if this node has no children.
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 Node, or subclass thereof.
Defaults to:
true
A reference to this node's last child node. null if this node has no children.
A reference to this node's next sibling node. null if this node does not have a next sibling.
A reference to this node's parent node. null if this node is the root node.
A reference to this node's previous sibling node. null if this node does not have a previous sibling.
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
This method applies a versioned, deprecation declaration to this class. This
is typically called by the deprecated config.
deprecations : Object
Inserts node(s) as the last child node of this node.
If the node was previously a child node of another parent node, it will be removed from that node first.
node : Ext.data.NodeInterface/Ext.data.NodeInterface[]/Object
The node or Array of nodes to append
suppressEvents : Boolean (optional)
True to suppress firing of events.
Defaults to: false
commit : Boolean (optional)
Defaults to: false
The appended node if single append, or null if an array was passed
Bubbles up the tree from this node, calling the specified function with each node. The arguments to the function will be the args provided or the current node. If the function returns false at any point, the bubble is stopped.
fn : Function
The function to call
scope : Object (optional)
The scope (this reference) in which the function is executed. Defaults to the current Node.
args : Array (optional)
The args to call the function with. Defaults to passing the current Node.
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
The arguments, either an array or the arguments object
from the current method, for example: this.callOverridden(arguments)
Returns the result of calling the overridden method
Deprecated since version 4.1.0
Use method-callParent instead.
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
The arguments, either an array or the arguments object
from the current method, for example: this.callParent(arguments)
Returns the result of calling the parent method
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
The arguments, either an array or the arguments object
from the current method, for example: this.callSuper(arguments)
Returns the result of calling the superclass method
Cascades down the tree from this node, calling the specified functions with each node. The arguments to the function
will be the args provided or the current node. If the before function returns false at any point,

Using this method, it is possible to ascertain whether an
expandAll() call (classic toolkit TreePanel method) will have
access to all descendant nodes without incurring a store load.
Returns true if this node has one or more child nodes, or if the expandable node attribute is explicitly specified as true, otherwise returns false.
Used by Ext.tree.Column#initTemplateRendererData to determine whether a node is the last visible sibling.
Returns true if this node is visible. Note that visibility refers to the structure of the tree, the Ext.tree.Panel#rootVisible configuration is not taken into account here. If this method is called on the root node, it will always be visible.

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();

commit : Boolean
info : Object
The info to update. May contain any of the following
The names of any persistent fields that were modified.
Adds new config properties to this class. This is called for classes when they are declared, then for any mixins that class may define and finally for any overrides defined that target the class.

meow: function() {
alert('Meowww...');
}
});
var kitty = new My.awesome.Cat();
kitty.meow();
members : Object
The members to add to this class.
isStatic : Boolean (optional)
Pass true if the members are static.
Defaults to: false
privacy : Boolean (optional)
Pass true if the members are private. This
only has meaning in debug mode and only for methods.
Defaults to: false
Add / override static properties of this class.
Ext.define('My.cool.Class', {
...
});
My.cool.Class.addStatics({
someProperty: 'someValue', // My.cool.Class.someProperty = 'someValue'
method1: function() { ... }, // My.cool.Class.method1 = function() { ... };
method2: function() { ... } // My.cool.Class.method2 = function() { ... };
});

Ext.define('Bank', {
money: '$$$',
printMoney: function() {

}
});
Ext.define('Thief', {

});
Thief.borrow(Bank, ['money', 'printMoney']);
var steve = new Thief();
alert(steve.money); // alerts '$$$'
steve.printMoney(); // alerts '$$$$$$$'

members : Array/String
The names of the members to borrow
this
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.
the created instance.
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
The new method name, or an object to set multiple aliases. See flexSetter
origin : String/Object
The original method name
This method decorates a Model class such that it implements the interface of a tree node. That is, it adds a set of methods, events, properties and fields on every record.
modelClass : Ext.Class/Ext.data.Model
The Model class or an instance of the Model class you want to decorate. In either case, this method decorates the class so all instances of that type will have the new capabilities.
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'
className
Used internally by the mixins pre-processor
name : Object
mixinClass : Object
Override members of this class. Overridden methods can be invoked via Ext.Base#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).
