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.
classInstance.method1().method2().etc();false is returned from
an event handler- Indicates a framework class
- A singleton framework class. *See the singleton flag for more information
- A component-type framework class (any class within the Ext JS framework that extends Ext.Component)
- Indicates that the class, member, or guide is new in the currently viewed version
- Indicates a class member of type config
- Indicates a class member of type property
- Indicates a class member of type

theme mixin
- Indicates that the class, member, or guide is new in the currently viewed version
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 manages uniquely keyed objects such as Ext.data.Model or Ext.Component.
Unlike Ext.util.MixedCollection this class can only manage objects whose key can be
extracted from the instance. That is, this class does not support "external" keys. This
makes this class more efficient because it does not need to track keys in parallel with
items. It also means key-to-item lookup will be optimal and never need to perform a
linear search.
In some cases items may need to be looked up by multiple property values. To enable this
there is the extraKeys config.
For example, to quickly look up items by their "name" property:
var collection = new Ext.util.Collection({
extraKeys: {
byName: 'name' // based on "name" property of each item
}
});
When methods accept index arguments to indicate a range of items, these are either an index and a number of items or a "begin" and "end" index.
In the case of "begin" and "end", the "end" is the first item outside the range. This definition makes it simple to expression empty ranges because "length = end - begin".
When an item index is provided, negative values are treated as offsets from the end of the collection. In other words the follow are equivalent:
+---+---+---+---+---+---+
| | | | | | |
+---+---+---+---+---+---+
0 1 2 3 4 5
-6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1
The legacy classes Ext.util.MixedCollection' andExt.util.AbstractMixedCollection
may be needed if external keys are required, but for all other situations this class
should be used instead.
true to maintain sorted order when items
are added regardless of requested insertion point, or when an item mutation
results in a new sort position.
This does not affect a filtered Collection's reaction to mutations of the source Collection. If sorters are present when the source Collection is mutated, this Collection's sort order will always be maintained.
Defaults to:
true
A function that can convert newly added items to a proper type before being added to this collection.
Defaults to:
null
The default sort direction to use if one is not specified.
Defaults to:
'ASC'
Sets the value of defaultSortDirection
defaultSortDirection : String
One or more Ext.util.CollectionKey configuration objects or key properties.
Each property of the given object is the name of the CollectionKey instance
that is stored on this collection. The value of each property configures the
CollectionKey instance.
var collection = new Ext.util.Collection({
extraKeys: {
byName: 'name' // based on "name" property of each item
}
});
Or equivalently:
var collection = new Ext.util.Collection({
extraKeys: {
byName: {
property: 'name'
}
}
});
To provide a custom key extraction function instead:
var collection = new Ext.util.Collection({
extraKeys: {
byName: {
keyFn: function (item) {
return item.name;
}
}
}
});
Or to call a key getter method from each item:
var collection = new Ext.util.Collection({
extraKeys: {
byName: {
keyFn: 'getName'
}
}
});
To use the above:
var item = collection.byName.get('somename');
NOTE Either a property or keyFn must be be specified to define each
key.
Defaults to:
null
Available since: 5.0.0
The collection of Ext.util.Filter for this collection. At the
time a collection is created filters can be specified as a unit. After that
time the normal setFilters method can also be given a set of replacement
filters for the collection.
Individual filters can be specified as an Ext.util.Filter instance, a config
object for Ext.util.Filter or simply a function that will be wrapped in a
instance with its filterFn set.
For fine grain control of the filters collection, call getFilters to return
the Ext.util.Collection instance that holds this collection's filters.
var collection = new Ext.util.Collection();
var filters = collection.getFilters(); // an Ext.util.FilterCollection
function legalAge (item) {
return item.age >= 21;
}
filters.add(legalAge);
//...
filters.remove(legalAge);
Any changes to the filters collection will cause this collection to adjust
its items accordingly (if autoFilter is true).
Defaults to:
null
Available since: 5.0.0
Returns the Ext.util.FilterCollection. Unless autoCreate is explicitly passed
as false this collection will be automatically created if it does not yet exist.
autoCreate : Object (optional)
Pass false to disable auto-creation of the collection.
Defaults to: true
The collection of filters.
Sets the value of filters
filters : Array / Ext.util.FilterCollection
A configuration object for this collection's Ext.util.Grouper.
For example, to group items by the first letter of the last name:
var collection = new Ext.util.Collection({
grouper: {
groupFn: function (item) {
return item.lastName.substring(0, 1);
}
}
});
Defaults to:
null
The collection of to hold each group container. This collection is created and
removed dynamically based on grouper. Application code should only need to
call getGroups to retrieve the collection and not setGroups.
Defaults to:
null
A function to retrieve the key of an item in the collection. If provided,
this replaces the default getKey method. The default getKey method handles
items that have either an "id" or "_id" property or failing that a getId
method to call.
Available since: 5.0.0
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 listeners
The maximum number of sorters which may be applied to this Sortable when using the "multi" insertion position when adding sorters.
New sorters added using the "multi" insertion position are inserted at the top of the sorters list becoming the new primary sort key.
If the sorters collection has grown to longer then multiSortLimit, then
the it is trimmed.
Defaults to:
3
Sets the value of multiSortLimit
multiSortLimit : Number
The root property to use for aggregation, filtering and sorting. By default
this is null but when containing things like Ext.data.Model
this config would likely be set to "data" so that property names are applied
to the fields of each record.
Defaults to:
null
Array of Ext.util.Sorter for this collection. At the time a
collection is created the sorters can be specified as a unit. After that time
the normal setSorters method can be also be given a set of replacement
sorters.
Individual sorters can be specified as an Ext.util.Sorter instance, a config
object for Ext.util.Sorter or simply the name of a property by which to sort.
An alternative way to extend the sorters is to call the sort method and pass
a property or sorter config to add to the sorters.
For fine grain control of the sorters collection, call getSorters to return
the Ext.util.Collection instance that holds this collection's sorters.
var collection = new Ext.util.Collection();
var sorters = collection.getSorters(); // an Ext.util.SorterCollection
sorters.add('name');
//...
sorters.remove('name');
Any changes to the sorters collection will cause this collection to adjust
its items accordingly (if autoSort is true).
Defaults to:
null
Available since: 5.0.0
Returns the Ext.util.SorterCollection. Unless autoCreate is explicitly passed
as false this collection will be automatically created if it does not yet exist.
autoCreate : Object (optional)
Pass false to disable auto-creation of the collection.
Defaults to: true
The collection of sorters.
Sets the value of sorters
sorters : Array / Ext.util.SorterCollection
The base Collection. This collection contains the items to which filters
are applied to populate this collection. In this configuration, only the
root source collection can have items truly added or removed.
Defaults to:
null
Available since: 5.0.0
Returns all unfiltered items in the Collection when the Collection has been
filtered. Returns null when the Collection is not filtered.
items All unfiltered items (or null when the
Collection is not filtered)
true to track individual groups in a Ext.util.GroupCollection
Defaults to:
true
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
Priority that is used for endupdate listeners on the filters and sorters. set to a very high priority so that our processing of these events takes place prior to user code - data must already be filtered/sorted when the user's handler runs
Defaults to:
1001
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
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
Initial suspended call count. Incremented when suspendEvents is called, decremented when resumeEvents is called.
Defaults to:
0
Mutation counter which is incremented when the collection changes.
Defaults to:
0
Available since: 5.0.0
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);
}
The number of times the indices have been rebuilt. This is for diagnostic use.
Defaults to:
0
Available since: 5.0.0
An object used as map to get the index of an item.
Defaults to:
null
Available since: 5.0.0
true in this class to identify an object as an instantiated Collection, or subclass
thereof.
Defaults to:
true
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
An object used as a map to find items based on their key.
Defaults to:
{}
Available since: 5.0.0
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
A read-only flag indicating if this object is sorted. This flag may not be correct
during an update of the sorter collection but will be correct before onSortChange
is called. This flag is true if grouped is true because the collection is at
least sorted by the grouper.
Defaults to:
false
A counter that is increased by beginUpdate and decreased by endUpdate. When
this transitions from 0 to 1 the beginupdate event is
fired. When it transitions back from 1 to 0 the endupdate
event is fired.
Defaults to:
0
Available since: 5.0.0
Adds declarative listeners as nested arrays of listener objects.
listeners : Array
true if any listeners were added
Adds an item to the collection. If the item already exists or an item with the same key exists, the old item will be removed and the new item will be added to the end.
This method also accepts an array of items or simply multiple items as individual arguments. The following 3 code sequences have the same end result:
// Call add() once per item (not optimal - best avoided):
collection.add(itemA);
collection.add(itemB);
collection.add(itemC);
collection.add(itemD);
// Call add() with each item as an argument:
collection.add(itemA, itemB, itemC, itemD);
// Call add() with the items as an array:
collection.add([ itemA, itemB, itemC, itemD ]);
The first form should be avoided where possible because the collection and all parties "watching" it will be updated 4 times.
Available since: 5.0.0
item : Object/Object[]
The item or items to add.
The item or items added.
This method applies a versioned, deprecation declaration to this class. This
is typically called by the deprecated config.
deprecations : Object
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
The name of the event to listen for. May also be an object who's property names are event names.
fn : Function/String (optional)
The method the event invokes or the name of
the method within the specified scope. Will be called with arguments
given to Ext.util.Observable#fireEvent plus the options parameter described
below.
scope : Object (optional)
The scope (this reference) in which the handler function is
executed. If omitted, defaults to the object which fired the event.
options : Object (optional)
An object containing handler configuration.
Note: The options object will also be passed as the last argument to every event handler.
This object may contain any of the following properties:
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 set of arguments to pass to the handler function before the actual
fired event arguments. For example, if args is set to ['foo', 42],
the event handler function will be called with an arguments list like this:
handler('foo', 42, <actual event 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)
A shortcut for the order event option. Provided for backward compatibility.
Please use the priority event option instead.
Combining Options
Using the options argument, it is possible to combine different types of listeners:
A delayed, one-time listener.
myPanel.on('hide', this.handleClick, this, {
single: true,
delay: 100
});
Attaching multiple handlers in 1 call
The method also allows for a single argument to be passed which is a config object containing properties which specify multiple handlers and handler configs.
grid.on({
itemclick: 'onItemClick',
itemcontextmenu: grid.onItemContextmenu,
destroy: {
fn: function () {
// function called within the 'altCmp' scope instead of grid
},
scope: altCmp // unique scope for the destroy handler
},
scope: grid // default scope - provided for example clarity
});
Delegate
This is a configuration option that you can pass along when registering a handler for an event to assist with event delegation. By setting this configuration option to a simple selector, the target element will be filtered to look for a descendant of the target. For example:
var panel = Ext.create({
xtype: 'panel',
renderTo: document.body,
title: 'Delegate Handler Example',
frame: true,
height: 220,
width: 220,
html: '<h1 class="myTitle">BODY TITLE</h1>Body content'
});
// The click handler will only be called when the click occurs on the
// delegate: h1.myTitle ("h1" tag with class "myTitle")
panel.on({
click: function (e) {
console.log(e.getTarget().innerHTML);
},
element: 'body',
delegate: 'h1.myTitle'
});
Defaults to: 'current'
Only when the destroyable option is specified.
A Destroyable object. An object which implements the destroy method which removes
all listeners added in this call. For example:
this.btnListeners = = myButton.on({
destroyable: true
mouseover: function() { console.log('mouseover'); },
mouseout: function() { console.log('mouseout'); },
click: function() { console.log('click'); }
});
And when those listeners need to be removed:
Ext.destroy(this.btnListeners);
or
this.btnListeners.destroy();
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
The item to which to add a listener/listeners.
ename : Object/String
The event name, or an object containing event name properties.
fn : Function/String (optional)
If the ename parameter was an event
name, this is the handler function or the name of a method on the specified
scope.
scope : Object (optional)
If the ename parameter was an event name, this is the scope (this reference)
in which the handler function is executed.
options : Object (optional)
If the ename parameter was an event name, this is the
addListener options.
Only when the destroyable option is specified.
A Destroyable object. An object which implements the destroy method which removes all listeners added in this call. For example:
this.btnListeners = myButton.mon({
destroyable: true
mouseover: function() { console.log('mouseover'); },
mouseout: function() { console.log('mouseout'); },
click: function() { console.log('click'); }
});
And when those listeners need to be removed:
Ext.destroy(this.btnListeners);
or
this.btnListeners.destroy();
Adds an observing object to this collection. Observers are given first view of all
events that we may fire. For any event an observer may implement a method whose
name starts with "onCollection" to receive the event. The add
event for example would be passed to "onCollectionAdd".
The only restriction to observers is that they are not allowed to add or remove observers from inside these methods.
Available since: 5.0.0
observer : Ext.util.Collection
The observer instance.
Returns the result of the specified aggregation operation against all items in this collection.
This method is not typically called directly because there are convenience methods
for each of the supported operation values. These are:
[min, max].undefined if empty.undefined if empty.For example:
result = collection.aggregate('age', 'sum');
result = collection.aggregate('age', 'sum', 2, 10); // the 8 items at index 2
To provide a custom operation function:
function averageAgeOfMinors (items, values) {
var sum = 0,
count = 0;
for (var i = 0; i < values.length; ++i) {
if (values[i] < 18) {
sum += values[i];
++count;
}
}
return count ? sum / count : 0;
}
result = collection.aggregate('age', averageAgeOfMinors);
property : String

See aggregate. The functionality is the same, however the aggregates are provided per group. Assumes this collection has an active grouper.
property : String
The name of the property to aggregate from each item.
operation : String/Function
The operation to perform.
scope : Object (optional)
The this pointer to use if operation is a function.

property : String
The name of the property to average from each item.
The result of average, partitioned by group. See aggregateByGroup.
This method is called to indicate the start of multiple changes to the collection.
Application code should seldom need to call this method as it is called internally
when needed. If multiple collection changes are needed, consider wrapping them in
an update call rather than calling beginUpdate directly.
Internally this method increments a counter that is decremented by endUpdate. It
is important, therefore, that if you call beginUpdate directly you match that
call with a call to endUpdate or you will prevent the collection from updating
properly.
For example:
var collection = new Ext.util.Collection();
collection.beginUpdate();
collection.add(item);
// ...
collection.insert(index, otherItem);
//...
collection.endUpdate();
Available since: 5.0.0

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
Removes all items from the collection. This is similar to removeAll except that
removeAll fire events to inform listeners. This means that this method should be
called only when you are sure there are no listeners.
Available since: 5.0.0
Creates a shallow copy of this collection
Available since: 5.0.0
Collects unique values of a particular property in this Collection.
Available since: 5.0.0
property : String

root : String (optional)
'root' property to extract the first argument from. This is used mainly when summing fields in records, where the fields are all stored inside the 'data' object
allowNull : Boolean (optional)
Pass true to include null, undefined or empty
string values.
The unique values
Returns true if the collection contains the passed Object as an item.
Available since: 5.0.0
item : Object
The Object to look for in the collection.
true if the collection contains the Object as an item.
Returns true if the collection contains the passed Object as a key.
Available since: 5.0.0
key : String
The key to look for in the collection.
True if the collection contains the Object as a key.
Determines the number of items in the collection.
Available since: 5.0.0
The number of items.
See count. The result is partitioned by group.
Available since: 5.0.0
The result of count, partitioned by group. See aggregateByGroup.
Creates a new collection that is a filtered subset of this collection. The filter
passed can be a function, a simple property name and value, an Ext.util.Filter
instance, an array of Ext.util.Filter instances.
If the passed filter is a function the second argument is its "scope" (or "this"
pointer). The function should return true given each item in the collection if
that item should be included in the filtered collection.
var people = new Ext.util.Collection();
people.add([
{ id: 1, age: 25, name: 'Ed' },
{ id: 2, age: 24, name: 'Tommy' },
{ id: 3, age: 24, name: 'Arne' },
{ id: 4, age: 26, name: 'Aaron' }
]);
// Create a collection of people who are older than 24:
var oldPeople = people.createFiltered(function (item) {
return item.age > 24;
});
If the passed filter is a Ext.util.Filter instance or array of Ext.util.Filter
instances the filter(s) are used to produce the filtered collection and there are
no further arguments.
If the passed filter is a string it is understood as the name of the property by
which to filter. The second argument is the "value" used to compare each item's
property value. This comparison can be further tuned with the anyMatch and
caseSensitive (optional) arguments.
// Create a new Collection containing only the items where age == 24
var middleAged = people.createFiltered('age', 24);
Alternatively you can apply filters to this Collection by calling setFilters
or modifying the filter collection returned by getFilters.
Available since: 5.0.0
property : Ext.util.Filter[]/String/Function
A property on your objects, an array of Ext.util.Filter objects or a filter function.

newName : String
The name under which to re-fire the passed parameters.
beginEnd : Array (optional)

Returns the items array on which to operate. This is called to handle the two possible forms used by various methods that accept items:
collection.add(item1, item2, item3);
collection.add([ item1, item2, item3 ]);
Things get interesting when other arguments are involved:
collection.insert(index, item1, item2, item3);
collection.insert(index, [ item1, item2, item3 ]);
As well as below because we have to distinguish the one item from from the array:
collection.add(item);
collection.insert(index, item);
Available since: 5.0.0
args : Arguments
The arguments object from the caller.
index : Number
The index in args (the caller's arguments) of items.
The array of items on which to operate.
This method is an alias for decodeItems but is called when items are being
removed. If a decoder is provided it may be necessary to also override this
method to achieve symmetry between adding and removing items. This is the case
for Ext.util.FilterCollection' andExt.util.SorterCollection' for example.
Available since: 5.0.0
Destroys this collection. This is only necessary if this collection uses a source
collection as that relationship will keep a reference from the source to this
collection and potentially leak memory.

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');
}
}
});

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.

args : Array
Arguments to pass to handlers and to the action function.
fn : Function
The action function.
scope : Object (optional)

options : Object (optional)
Event options for the action function. Accepts any
of the options of addListener
order : String (optional)
The order to call the action function relative
too the event handlers ('before' or 'after'). Note that this option is
simply used to sort the action function relative to the event handlers by "priority".
An order of 'before' is equivalent to a priority of 99.5, while an order of
'after' is equivalent to a priority of -99.5. See the priority option
of addListener for more details.
Defaults to: 'before'
Deprecated since version 5.5
Use fireEventedAction instead.

args : Object[]
An array of parameters which are passed to handlers.
returns false if any of the handlers return false otherwise it returns true.
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
The name of the event to fire.
args : Array
Arguments to pass to handlers and to the action function.
fn : Function/String
The action function.
scope : Object (optional)

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)
Name of the config option to return.
The full config object or a single config value
when name parameter specified.
A function which will be called, passing an object belonging to this collection. The function should return the key by which that object will be indexed. This key must be unique to this item as only one item with this key will be retained.
The default implementation looks basically like this (give or take special case handling of 0):
function getKey (item) {
return item.id || item._id || item.getId();
}
You can provide your own implementation by passing the keyFn config.
For example, to hold items that have a unique "name" property:
var elementCollection = new Ext.util.Collection({
keyFn: function (item) {
return item.name;
}
});
The collection can have extraKeys if items need to be quickly looked up by other
(potentially non-unique) properties.

true if events are suspended
This method should be called when an item in this collection has been modified. If
the collection is sorted or filtered the result of modifying an item needs to be
reflected in the collection. If the item's key is also being modified, it is best
to pass the oldKey to this same call rather than call updateKey separately.

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
The item to which to add a listener/listeners.
ename : Object/String
The event name, or an object containing event name properties.
fn : Function/String (optional)
If the ename parameter was an event
name, this is the handler function or the name of a method on the specified
scope.
scope : Object (optional)
If the ename parameter was an event name, this is the scope (this reference)
in which the handler function is executed.
options : Object (optional)
If the ename parameter was an event name, this is the
addListener options.
Only when the destroyable option is specified.
A Destroyable object. An object which implements the destroy method which removes all listeners added in this call. For example:
this.btnListeners = myButton.mon({
destroyable: true
mouseover: function() { console.log('mouseover'); },
mouseout: function() { console.log('mouseout'); },
click: function() { console.log('click'); }
});
And when those listeners need to be removed:
Ext.destroy(this.btnListeners);
or
this.btnListeners.destroy();
Shorthand for removeManagedListener. Removes listeners that were added by the mon method.
item : Ext.util.Observable/Ext.dom.Element
The item from which to remove a listener/listeners.
ename : Object/String
The event name, or an object containing event name properties.
fn : Function (optional)
If the ename parameter was an event name, this is the handler function.
scope : Object (optional)
If the ename parameter was an event name, this is the scope (this reference)
in which the handler function is executed.
This method wraps all fired events and gives observers first view of the change.
Available since: 5.0.0
eventName : String
The name of the event to fire.
args : Array (optional)
The event arguments. This collection instance is inserted at the front of this array if there is any receiver for the notification.
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
The name of the event to listen for. May also be an object who's property names are event names.
fn : Function/String (optional)
The method the event invokes or the name of
the method within the specified scope. Will be called with arguments
given to Ext.util.Observable#fireEvent plus the options parameter described
below.
scope : Object (optional)
The scope (this reference) in which the handler function is
executed. If omitted, defaults to the object which fired the event.
options : Object (optional)
An object containing handler configuration.
Note: The options object will also be passed as the last argument to every event handler.
This object may contain any of the following properties:
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 set of arguments to pass to the handler function before the actual
fired event arguments. For example, if args is set to ['foo', 42],
the event handler function will be called with an arguments list like this:
handler('foo', 42, <actual event 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)
A shortcut for the order event option. Provided for backward compatibility.
Please use the priority event option instead.
Combining Options
Using the options argument, it is possible to combine different types of listeners:
A delayed, one-time listener.
myPanel.on('hide', this.handleClick, this, {
single: true,
delay: 100
});
Attaching multiple handlers in 1 call
The method also allows for a single argument to be passed which is a config object containing properties which specify multiple handlers and handler configs.
grid.on({
itemclick: 'onItemClick',
itemcontextmenu: grid.onItemContextmenu,
destroy: {
fn: function () {
// function called within the 'altCmp' scope instead of grid
},
scope: altCmp // unique scope for the destroy handler
},
scope: grid // default scope - provided for example clarity
});
Delegate
This is a configuration option that you can pass along when registering a handler for an event to assist with event delegation. By setting this configuration option to a simple selector, the target element will be filtered to look for a descendant of the target. For example:
var panel = Ext.create({
xtype: 'panel',
renderTo: document.body,
title: 'Delegate Handler Example',
frame: true,
height: 220,
width: 220,
html: '<h1 class="myTitle">BODY TITLE</h1>Body content'
});
// The click handler will only be called when the click occurs on the
// delegate: h1.myTitle ("h1" tag with class "myTitle")
panel.on({
click: function (e) {
console.log(e.getTarget().innerHTML);
},
element: 'body',
delegate: 'h1.myTitle'
});
Defaults to: 'current'
Only when the destroyable option is specified.
A Destroyable object. An object which implements the destroy method which removes
all listeners added in this call. For example:
this.btnListeners = = myButton.on({
destroyable: true
mouseover: function() { console.log('mouseover'); },
mouseout: function() { console.log('mouseout'); },
click: function() { console.log('click'); }
});
And when those listeners need to be removed:
Ext.destroy(this.btnListeners);
or
this.btnListeners.destroy();

This is a template method. a hook into the functionality of this class. Feel free to override it in child classes.
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
The Observable whose events this object is to relay.
events : String[]/Object
Array of event names to relay or an Object with key/value pairs translating to ActualEventName/NewEventName respectively. For example: this.relayEvents(this, {add:'push', remove:'pop'});
Would now redispatch the add event of this as a push event and the remove event as a pop event.
prefix : String (optional)
A common prefix to prepend to the event names. For example:
this.relayEvents(this.getStore(), ['load', 'clear'], 'store');
Now the grid will forward 'load' and 'clear' events of store as 'storeload' and 'storeclear'.
A Destroyable object. An object which implements the destroy method which, when destroyed, removes all relayers. For example:
this.storeRelayers = this.relayEvents(this.getStore(), ['load', 'clear'], 'store');
Can be undone by calling
Ext.destroy(this.storeRelayers);
or this.store.relayers.destroy();

Convenience Syntax
You can use the addListener
destroyable: true config option in place of calling un(). For example:
var listeners = cmp.on({
scope: cmp,
afterrender: cmp.onAfterrender,
beforehide: cmp.onBeforeHide,
destroyable: true
});
// Remove listeners
listeners.destroy();
// or
cmp.un(
scope: cmp,
afterrender: cmp.onAfterrender,
beforehide: cmp.onBeforeHide
);
Exception - DOM event handlers using the element config option
You must go directly through the element to detach an event handler attached using the addListener element option.

});
panel.body.un({
click: 'onBodyCLick'
});

eventName : String...
Multiple event names to resume.
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)
true to prevent any previously queued events from firing
while we were suspended. See suspendEvents.
Sets a single/multiple configuration options.
name : String/Object
The name of the property to set, or a set of key value pairs to set.

this
Updates the sorters collection and triggers sorting of this Sortable.
For example:
//sort by a single field
myStore.sort('myField', 'DESC');
//sorting by multiple fields
myStore.sort([{
property : 'age',
direction: 'ASC'
}, {
property : 'name',
direction: 'DESC'
}]);
When passing a single string argument to sort, the direction is maintained for
each field and is toggled automatically. So this code:
store.sort('myField');
store.sort('myField');
Is equivalent to the following:
store.sort('myField', 'ASC');
store.sort('myField', 'DESC');
property : String/Function/Ext.util.Sorter[] (optional)
Either the name of a property
(such as a field of a Ext.data.Model in a Store), an array of configurations
for Ext.util.Sorter instances or just a comparison function.
direction : String (optional)
The direction by which to sort the data. This parameter
is only valid when property is a String, otherwise the second parameter is the
mode.
mode : String (optional)
Where to put new sorters in the collection. This should be one the following values:
replace : The new sorter(s) become the sole sorter set for this Sortable.
This is the most useful call mode to programmatically sort by multiple fields.
prepend : The new sorters are inserted as the primary sorters. The sorter
collection length must be controlled by the developer.
multi : Similar to prepend the new sorters are inserted at the front
of the collection of sorters. Following the insertion, however, this mode trims
the sorter collection to enforce the multiSortLimit config. This is useful for
implementing intuitive "Sort by this" user interfaces.
append : The new sorters are added at the end of the collection.
Defaults to: "replace"
This instance.
Sorts the collection by a single sorter function
sorterFn : Function
The function to sort by
This method will sort an array based on the currently configured sorters.
data : Array
The array you want to have sorted.
The array you passed after it is sorted.
Sorts the items of the collection using the supplied function. This should only be
called for collections that have no sorters defined.
Available since: 5.0.0
sortFn : Function
The function by which to sort the items.
This method is basically the same as the JavaScript Array splice method.
Negative indexes are interpreted starting at the end of the collection. That is,
a value of -1 indicates the last item, or equivalent to length - 1.
Available since: 5.0.0
index : Number
The index at which to add or remove items.
toRemove : Number/Object[]
The number of items to remove or an array of the items to remove.
toAdd : Object[] (optional)
The items to insert at the given index.
This method is what you might find in the core of a merge sort. We have an items array that is sorted so we sort the newItems and merge the two sorted arrays. In the general case, newItems will be no larger than all items so sorting it will be faster than simply concatenating the arrays and calling sort on it.
We take advantage of the nature of this process to generate add events as ranges.
Available since: 5.0.0
newItems : Object[]
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

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...
Multiple event names to suspend.
Suspends the firing of all events. (see resumeEvents)
queueSuspended : Boolean
true to queue up suspended events to be fired
after the resumeEvents call instead of discarding all suspended events.
Shorthand for removeListener. Removes an event handler.
eventName : String
The type of event the handler was associated with.
fn : Function
The handler to remove. This must be a reference to the function passed into the addListener call.
scope : Object (optional)

Convenience Syntax
You can use the addListener
destroyable: true config option in place of calling un(). For example:
var listeners = cmp.on({
scope: cmp,
afterrender: cmp.onAfterrender,
beforehide: cmp.onBeforeHide,
destroyable: true
});
// Remove listeners
listeners.destroy();
// or
cmp.un(
scope: cmp,
afterrender: cmp.onAfterrender,
beforehide: cmp.onBeforeHide
);
Exception - DOM event handlers using the element config option
You must go directly through the element to detach an event handler attached using the addListener element option.
panel.on({
element: 'body',
click: 'onBodyCLick'
});
panel.body.un({
click: 'onBodyCLick'
});

collection.insert(index, otherItem);
//...
collection.remove(someItem);
});

collection : Ext.util.Collection
This collection.
scope : Object (optional)
The this pointer to use when calling fn.
Defaults to: this
Returns the value returned from fn (typically undefined).
Change the key for an existing item in the collection. If the old key does not
exist this call does nothing. Even so, it is highly recommended to avoid calling
this method for an item that is not a member of this collection.
Available since: 5.0.0
item : Object
The item whose key has changed. The item should be a member
of this collection.
oldKey : String
The old key for the item.
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.
config : Object
mixinClass : Ext.Class (optional)
The mixin class if the configs are from a mixin.
Add methods / properties to the prototype of this class.
Ext.define('My.awesome.Cat', {
constructor: function() {
...
}
});
My.awesome.Cat.addMembers({
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() { ... };
});
members : Object
this
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
The class to borrow members from
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
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).
members : Object
The properties to add to this class. This should be specified as an object literal containing one or more properties.
this class
Fires after items have been added to the collection.
All add and remove events occur between
beginupdate and endupdate
events so it is best to do only the minimal amount of work in response to these
events and move the more expensive side-effects to an endupdate listener.
Available since: 5.0.0
collection : Ext.util.Collection
The collection being modified.
details : Object
An object describing the addition.
at : Number
The index in the collection where the add occurred.
atItem : Object

null if at the beginning of the collection.
items : Object[]
The items that are now added to the collection.
keys : Array (optional)
next : Object (optional)
If more add events are in queue
to be delivered this is a reference to the details instance for the next
add event. This will only be the case when the collection is
sorted as the new items often need to be inserted at multiple locations to maintain
the sort. In this case, all of the new items have already been added not just those
described by the first add event.
eOpts : Object
The options object passed to Ext.util.Observable.addListener.
This event fires before an item change is reflected in the collection. This event
is always followed by an itemchange event and, depending on the change, possibly
an add, remove and/or updatekey event.

The collection being modified.
details : Object
An object describing the change.
item : Object
The item that has changed.

filtered : Boolean (optional)
This value is true if the item will be filtered
out of the collection.

changed (see keyChanged).
wasFiltered : Boolean (optional)
This value is true if the item was filtered
out of the collection.

This event fires when the collection has changed entirely. This event is fired in cases where the collection's filter is updated or the items are sorted. While the items previously in the collection may remain the same, the order at a minimum has changed in ways that cannot be simply translated to other events.
collection : Ext.util.Collection
The collection being modified.
eOpts : Object
The options object passed to Ext.util.Observable.addListener.
Fires after items have been removed from the collection. Some properties of this object may not be present if calculating them is deemed too expensive. These are marked as "optional".
All add and remove events occur between
beginupdate and endupdate
events so it is best to do only the minimal amount of work in response to these
events and move the more expensive side-effects to an endupdate listener.

The index in the collection where the removal occurred.
items : Object[]
The items that are now removed from the collection.
keys : Array (optional)
map : Object (optional)
If available this is a map keyed by the key of each
item in the items array. This will often contain all of the items being removed
and not just the items in the range described by this event. The value held in this
map is the item.
next : Object (optional)
If more remove events are in
queue to be delivered this is a reference to the details instance for the next
remove event.
replacement : Object (optional)
If this removal has a corresponding
add taking place this reference holds the details object for
that add event. If the collection is sorted, the new items are pre-sorted but the
at property for the replacement will not be correct. The new items will be
added in one or more chunks at their proper index.
