The documentation for the ExtReact product diverges somewhat from the
documentation of other Sencha products. The sections below describe
documentation for all products except where indicated as unique to
ExtReact.
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.
ExtReact component classes list the configurable name prominently at the top of the API class doc followed by the fully-qualified class name.
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.
ExtReact component classes display
configuration options as props
ExtReact component classes do not list
properties as a dedicated member type, but rather as
read only props
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.
All ExtReact props are bindable
unless decorated as immutable
Immutable ExtReact props may not be use as a configurable prop when instantiating a component

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.
ExtReact component classes do not hoist the getter /
setter methods into the prop. All methods will be described in the
Methods section
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.

An object containing ARIA attributes to be set
on this Component's ARIA element. Use this to set the attributes that cannot be
determined by the Component's state, such as aria-live, aria-flowto, etc.
Note that this config is only meaningful at the Component rendering time, and setting it after that will do nothing.
Sets the value of ariaAttributes
ariaAttributes : Object
DOM selector for a child element that is to be used
as description for this Component, set in aria-describedby attribute.
The selector works the same way as ariaLabelledBy.
ARIA label for this Component. It is best to use
ariaLabelledBy option instead, because screen readers prefer
aria-labelledby attribute to aria-label. ariaLabel and
ariaLabelledBy config options are mutually exclusive.
DOM selector for a child element that is to be used
as label for this Component, set in aria-labelledby attribute.
If the selector is by #id, the label element can be any existing element,
not necessarily a child of the main Component element.
ariaLabelledBy and ariaLabel config options are
mutually exclusive, and ariaLabelledBy has the higher precedence.
Enables or disables bordering on this component. The following values are accepted:
null or `true (default): Do nothing and allow the border to be specified by the theme.false: suppress the default border provided by the theme.Please note that enabling bordering via this config will not add a border-color
or border-style CSS property to the component; you provide the border-color
and border-style via CSS rule or style configuration
(if not already provide by the theme).
Defaults to:
null
The CSS class to add to this widget's element, in addition to the baseCls. In many cases, this property will be specified by the derived widget class. See userCls for adding additional CSS classes to widget instances (such as items in a Container).
Defaults to:
null
If the surface is in the RTL mode, text will render with the RTL direction, but the alignment and position of the text won't change by default. Setting this config to 'true' will get text alignment and its position within a surface mirrored.
Defaults to:
false
CSS class that will be added to focused component's focusClsEl, and removed when component blurs.
Defaults to:
'x-focused'
The height of this Component; must be a valid CSS length value, e.g: 300, 100px, 30%, etc.
By default, if this is not explicitly set, this Component's element will simply have its own natural size.
If set to auto, it will set the width to null meaning it will have its own natural size.
Defaults to:
null
An object containing handlers for keyboard events. The property names of this object are the key name and any modifiers. The values of the properties are the descriptors of how to handle each event.
The handler descriptor can be simply the handler function (either the literal function or the method name), or it can be an object with these properties:
handler: The function or its name to call to handle the event.scope: The this pointer context (can be "this" or "controller").event: An optional override of the key event to which to listen.Important: Calls to setKeyMap do not replace the entire keyMap but
instead update the provided mappings. That is, unless null is passed as the
value of the keyMap which will clear the keyMap of all entries.
scope : String
The default scope to apply to key handlers
which do not specify a scope. This is processed the same way as the scope of
cfg-listeners. It defaults to the "controller", but using 'this'
means that an instance method will be used.
Enables or disables processing keys in the keyMap. This value starts as
null and if it is null when initKeyMap is called, it will automatically
be set to true. Since initKeyMap is called by Ext.Component at the
proper time, this is not something application code normally handles.
Defaults to:
null
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
An object or array of objects that will provide custom functionality for this
component. If a string is provided or a string is one of the elements of the
array, that string is treated as the type alias. For example, "listpaging"
is the type alias for Ext.plugin.ListPaging. The full alias includes the
"plugin." prefix (i.e., 'plugin.listpaging').
Plugins should derive from Ext.plugin.Abstract but this is not required. The
only requirement for a valid plugin is that it contain an init() method that
accepts a reference to the owning component.
When a component is created, if any plugins are available, the component will
call the init method on each plugin,
passing a reference to itself. Each plugin can then call methods or respond to
events on the component as needed to provide its functionality.
A plugin by alias:
var list = Ext.create({
xtype: 'list',
itemTpl: '<div class="item">{title}</div>',
store: 'Items',
plugins: 'listpaging'
});
Multiple plugins by alias:
var list = Ext.create({
xtype: 'list',
itemTpl: '<div class="item">{title}</div>',
store: 'Items',
plugins: ['listpaging', 'pullrefresh']
});
Single plugin by class name with config options:
var list = Ext.create({
xtype: 'list',
itemTpl: '<div class="item">{title}</div>',
store: 'Items',
plugins: {
type: 'listpaging',
autoPaging: true
}
});
Multiple plugins by type and class name with config options:
var list = Ext.create({
xtype: 'list',
itemTpl: '<div class="item">{title}</div>',
store: 'Items',
plugins: [{
xclass: 'Ext.plugin.PullRefresh',
pullRefreshText: 'Pull to refresh...'
}, {
type: 'listpaging',
autoPaging: true
}]
});
The [x, y, width, height] rect of the surface related to its container.
Defaults to:
null
Optional element to render this Component to. Not required if this component is an item of a Container of a Container.
Defaults to:
null
Additional CSS styles that will be rendered into an inline style attribute when the widget is rendered.
You can pass either a string syntax:
style: 'background:red'
Or by using an object:
style: {
background: 'red'
}
When using the object syntax, you can define CSS Properties by using a string:
style: {
'border-left': '1px solid red'
}
Although the object syntax is much easier to read, we suggest you to use the string syntax for better performance.
Defaults to:
null
Emulates the behavior of the CSS touch-action property in a cross-browser compatible manner.
Keys in this object are touch action names, and values are false to disable
a touch action or true to enable it. Accepted keys are:
panXpanYpinchZoomdoubleTapZoomAll touch actions are enabled (true) by default, so it is usually only necessary
to specify which touch actions to disable. For example, the following disables
only horizontal scrolling and pinch-to-zoom on the component's main element:
touchAction: {
panX: false,
pinchZoom: false
}
Touch actions can be specified on reference elements using the reference element name, for example:
// disables horizontal scrolling on the main element, and double-tap-zoom
// on the child element named "body"
touchAction: {
panY: false
body: {
doubleTapZoom: false
}
}
The primary motivation for setting the touch-action of an element is to prevent the browser's default handling of a gesture such as pinch-to-zoom, or drag-to-scroll, so that the application can implement its own handling of that gesture on the element. Suppose, for example, a component has a custom drag handler on its element and wishes to prevent horizontal scrolling of its container while it is being dragged:
Ext.create('Ext.Widget', {
touchAction: {
panX: false
},
listeners: {
drag: function(e) {
// implement drag logic
}
}
});
Defaults to:
null
The ui or uis to be used on this Component
When a ui is configured, CSS class names are added to the element, created by appending the ui name(s) to each classCls and/or baseCls.
Defaults to:
null
One or more CSS classes to add to the component's primary element. This config is intended solely for use by the component instantiator (the "user"), not by derived classes.
For example:
items: [{
xtype: 'button',
userCls: 'my-button'
...
}]
Defaults to:
null
The width of this Component; must be a valid CSS length value, e.g: 300, 100px, 30%, etc.
By default, if this is not explicitly set, this Component's element will simply have its own natural size.
If set to auto, it will set the width to null meaning it will have its own natural size.
Defaults to:
null
The reported device pixel density. devicePixelRatio is only supported from IE11, so we use deviceXDPI and logicalXDPI that are supported from IE6.
If this property is specified by the target class of this mixin its properties are
used to configure the created Ext.Factory.
The element that will have the focusCls applied when component's focusEl is focused.
The element that will be focused when focus method is called on this component. Usually this is the same element that receives focus via mouse clicks, taps, and pressing Tab key.
Defaults to:
'el'
true in this class to identify an object as an instantiated Observable, or subclass thereof.
Defaults to:
true
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 arguments to pass to the handler function. Any additional arguments passed to fireEvent will be appended to these arguments.
destroyable : Boolean (optional)
When specified as true, the function returns a destroyable object. An object
which implements the destroy method which removes all listeners added in this call.
This syntax can be a helpful shortcut to using un; particularly when
removing multiple listeners. NOTE - not compatible when using the element
option. See un for the proper syntax for removing listeners added using the
element config.
Defaults to:
false
priority : Number (optional)
An optional numeric priority that determines the order in which event handlers are run. Event handlers with no priority will be run as if they had a priority of 0. Handlers with a higher priority will be prioritized to run sooner than those with a lower priority. Negative numbers can be used to set a priority lower than the default. Internally, the framework uses a range of 1000 or greater, and -1000 or lesser for handlers that are intended to run before or after all others, so it is recommended to stay within the range of -999 to 999 when setting the priority of event handlers in application-level code. A priority must be an integer to be valid. Fractional values are reserved for internal framework use.
order : String (optional)
A legacy option that is provided for backward compatibility.
It is recommended to use the priority option instead. Available options are:
'before': equal to a priority of 100'current': equal to a priority of 0 or default priority'after': equal to a priority of -100Defaults to:
'current'
order : String (optional)
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 a plugin. For example:
list.addPlugin('pullrefresh');
Or:
list.addPlugin({
type: 'pullrefresh',
pullRefreshText: 'Pull to refresh...'
});
Available since: 6.2.0
plugin : Object/String/Ext.plugin.Abstract
The plugin or config object or alias to add.
Removes and destroys a plugin.
Note: Not all plugins are designed to be removable. Consult the documentation for the specific plugin in question to be sure.
Available since: 6.2.0
plugin : String/Ext.plugin.Abstract
The plugin or its id to remove.
plugin instance or null if not found.
Enables events fired by this Observable to bubble up an owner hierarchy by calling this.getBubbleTarget() if
present. There is no implementation in the Observable base class.
This is commonly used by Ext.Components to bubble events to owner Containers. See Ext.Component#getBubbleTarget. The default implementation in Ext.Component returns the Component's immediate owner. But if a known target is required, this can be overridden to access the required target more quickly.
Example:
Ext.define('Ext.overrides.form.field.Base', {
override: 'Ext.form.field.Base',
// Add functionality to Field's initComponent to enable the change event to bubble
initComponent: function () {
this.callParent();
this.enableBubble('change');
}
});
var myForm = Ext.create('Ext.form.Panel', {
title: 'User Details',
items: [{
...
}],
listeners: {
change: function() {
// Title goes red if form has been modified.
myForm.header.setStyle('color', 'red');
}
}
});
eventNames : String/String[]
The event name to bubble, or an Array of event names.
Retrieves plugin by its type alias. For example:
var list = Ext.create({
xtype: 'list',
itemTpl: '<div class="item">{title}</div>',
store: 'Items',
plugins: ['listpaging', 'pullrefresh']
});
list.findPlugin('pullrefresh').setPullRefreshText('Pull to refresh...');
Note: See also getPlugin.
Available since: 6.2.0
type : String
The Plugin's type as specified by the class's
alias configuration.
plugin instance or null if not found.
Fires the specified event with the passed parameters (minus the event name, plus the options object passed
to addListener).
An event may be set to bubble up an Observable parent hierarchy (See Ext.Component#getBubbleTarget) by calling enableBubble.
eventName : String
The name of the event to fire.
args : Object...
Variable number of parameters are passed to handlers.
returns false if any of the handlers return false otherwise it returns true.
Fires the specified event with the passed parameter list.
An event may be set to bubble up an Observable parent hierarchy (See Ext.Component#getBubbleTarget) by calling enableBubble.
eventName : String
The name of the event to fire.
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)
The scope (this reference) in which the handler function is
executed. If omitted, defaults to the object which fired the event.
fnArgs : Array/Boolean (optional)
Optional arguments for the action fn. If not
given, the normal args will be used to call fn. If false is passed, the
args are used but if the first argument is this instance it will be removed
from the args passed to the action function.
Try to focus this component.
If this component is disabled or otherwise not focusable, a close relation will be targeted for focus instead to keep focus localized for keyboard users.
selectText : Boolean/Number[] (optional)
If applicable, true to also select all the text
in this component, or an array consisting of start and end (defaults to start)
position of selection.
true if focus target was found and focusing was attempted,
false if no focusing attempt was made.
This method returns an object containing the inherited properties for this instance.
Available since: 5.0.0
inner : Boolean (optional)
Pass true to return inheritedStateInner instead
of the normal inheritedState object. This is only needed internally and should
not be passed by user code.
Defaults to: false
The inheritedState object containing inherited properties.
This method returns the value of a config property that may be inherited from some ancestor.
In some cases, a config may be explicitly set on a component with the intent of
only being presented to its children while that component should act upon the
inherited value (see referenceHolder for example). In these cases the skipThis
parameter should be specified as true.
Available since: 5.0.0
property : String
The name of the config property to return.
skipThis : Boolean (optional)
Pass true if the property should be ignored if
found on this instance. In other words, true means the property must be inherited
and not explicitly set on this instance.
Defaults to: false
The value of the requested property.
Returns the parent of this component, if it has one.
The parent of this component.
Retrieves a plugin by its id.
var list = Ext.create({
xtype: 'list',
itemTpl: '<div class="item">{title}</div>',
store: 'Items',
plugins: {
xclass: 'Ext.plugin.PullRefresh',
id: 'foo'
}
});
list.getPlugin('foo').setPullRefreshText('Pull to refresh...');
Note: See also findPlugin.
Available since: 6.2.0
id : String
The id of the plugin.
plugin instance or null if not found.
Return the actual tabIndex for this Focusable.
tabIndex attribute value
Checks to see if this object has any listeners for a specified event, or whether the event bubbles. The answer indicates whether the event needs firing or not.
eventName : String
The name of the event to check for
true if the event is being listened for or bubbles, else false
Returns true if this component has a parent.
true if this component has a parent.
Selector processing function for use by nextSibling,previousibling, nextNode,and previousNode, to filter candidate nodes.
The base implementation returns true. Classes which mix in Traversable may implement
their own implementations. @link{Ext.Widget} does this to implement
Ext.ComponentQuery based filterability.
This is a template method. a hook into the functionality of this class. Feel free to override it in child classes.
Determines whether this Component is an ancestor of the passed Component.
This will return true if the passed Component is anywhere within the subtree
beneath this Component.
possibleDescendant : Ext.Component
The Component to test for presence within this Component's subtree.
Determines whether this component is the descendant of a passed component.
ancestor : Ext.Component
A Component which may contain this Component.
true if the component is the descendant of the passed component,
otherwise false.
Determine if this Focusable can receive focus at this time.
Note that Containers can be non-focusable themselves while delegating focus treatment to a child Component; see Container for more information.
deep : Boolean (optional)
Optionally determine if the container itself is focusable, or if container's focus is delegated to a child component and that child is focusable.
Defaults to: false
True if component is focusable, false if not.
Checks if all events, or a specific event, is suspended.
event : String (optional)
The name of the specific event to check
true if events are suspended
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.
Returns the next node in the Component tree in tree traversal order.
Note that this is not limited to siblings, and if invoked upon a node with no matching siblings, will walk the tree to attempt to find a match. Contrast with nextSibling.
selector : String (optional)
A Ext.ComponentQuery selector to filter the following nodes.
The next node (or the next node which matches the selector).
Returns null if there is no matching node.
Returns the next sibling of this Component.
Optionally selects the next sibling which matches the passed Ext.ComponentQuery selector.
May also be referred to as next()
Note that this is limited to siblings, and if no siblings of the item match, null is returned. Contrast with
nextNode
selector : String (optional)
A Ext.ComponentQuery selector to filter the following items.
The next sibling (or the next sibling which matches the selector).
Returns null if there is no matching sibling.
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 arguments to pass to the handler function. Any additional arguments passed to fireEvent will be appended to these arguments.
destroyable : Boolean (optional)
When specified as true, the function returns a destroyable object. An object
which implements the destroy method which removes all listeners added in this call.
This syntax can be a helpful shortcut to using un; particularly when
removing multiple listeners. NOTE - not compatible when using the element
option. See un for the proper syntax for removing listeners added using the
element config.
Defaults to:
false
priority : Number (optional)
An optional numeric priority that determines the order in which event handlers are run. Event handlers with no priority will be run as if they had a priority of 0. Handlers with a higher priority will be prioritized to run sooner than those with a lower priority. Negative numbers can be used to set a priority lower than the default. Internally, the framework uses a range of 1000 or greater, and -1000 or lesser for handlers that are intended to run before or after all others, so it is recommended to stay within the range of -999 to 999 when setting the priority of event handlers in application-level code. A priority must be an integer to be valid. Fractional values are reserved for internal framework use.
order : String (optional)
A legacy option that is provided for backward compatibility.
It is recommended to use the priority option instead. Available options are:
'before': equal to a priority of 100'current': equal to a priority of 0 or default priority'after': equal to a priority of -100Defaults to:
'current'
order : String (optional)
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();
Appends an after-event handler.
Same as addListener with order set
to 'after'.
eventName : String/String[]/Object
The name of the event to listen for.
fn : Function/String
The method the event invokes.
scope : Object (optional)
The scope for fn.
options : Object (optional)
An object containing handler configuration.
Appends a before-event handler. Returning false from the handler will stop the event.
Same as addListener with order set
to 'before'.
eventName : String/String[]/Object
The name of the event to listen for.
fn : Function/String
The method the event invokes.
scope : Object (optional)
The scope for fn.
options : Object (optional)
An object containing handler configuration.
Returns the previous node in the Component tree in tree traversal order.
Note that this is not limited to siblings, and if invoked upon a node with no matching siblings, will walk the tree in reverse order to attempt to find a match. Contrast with previousSibling.
selector : String (optional)
A Ext.ComponentQuery selector to filter the preceding nodes.
The previous node (or the previous node which matches the selector).
Returns null if there is no matching node.
Returns the previous sibling of this Component.
Optionally selects the previous sibling which matches the passed Ext.ComponentQuery selector.
May also be referred to as prev()
Note that this is limited to siblings, and if no siblings of the item match, null is returned. Contrast with
previousNode
selector : String (optional)
A Ext.ComponentQuery selector to filter the preceding items.
The previous sibling (or the previous sibling which matches the selector).
Returns null if there is no matching sibling.
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();
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)
The scope originally specified for the handler. It must be the same as the scope argument specified in the original call to Ext.util.Observable#addListener or the listener will not be removed.
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'
});
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.

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.

while we were suspended. See suspendEvents.
Set the tabIndex property for this Focusable. If the focusEl is available, set tabIndex attribute on it, too.
newTabIndex : Number

Suspends firing of the named event(s).
After calling this method to suspend events, the events will no longer fire when requested to fire.
Note that if this is called multiple times for a certain event, the converse method resumeEvent will have to be called the same number of times for it to resume firing.
eventName : String...
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)
The scope originally specified for the handler. It must be the same as the scope argument specified in the original call to Ext.util.Observable#addListener or the listener will not be removed.
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'
});
Removes a before-event handler.
Same as removeListener with order set to 'after'.
eventName : String/String[]/Object

fn : Function/String
The handler to remove.
scope : Object (optional)
The scope originally specified for fn.
options : Object (optional)
Extra options object.

Example:
var owningTabPanel = grid.up('tabpanel');
selector : String (optional)
The simple selector to test.
limit : String/Number/Ext.Component (optional)
This may be a selector upon which to stop the upward scan, or a limit of the number of steps, or Component reference to stop on.

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).
