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

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
classInstance.method1().method2().etc();
false

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
Or in the case of an ExtReact component class this
indicates a member of type prop
- Indicates a class member of type property
- Indicates a class member of type

- Indicates a class member of type event
- Indicates a class member of type
theme variable
- 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.
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.
Provides specific methods to draw with 2D Canvas element.
An object containing ARIA attributes to be set
on this Component's ARIA element. Use this to set the attributes that cannot be
determined by the Component's state, such as aria-live
, aria-flowto
, etc.
Note that this config is only meaningful at the Component rendering time, and setting it after that will do nothing.
Defaults to:
null
Sets the value of ariaAttributes
ariaAttributes : Object
DOM selector for a child element that is to be used
as description for this Component, set in aria-describedby
attribute.
The selector works the same way as ariaLabelledBy.
ARIA label for this Component. It is best to use
ariaLabelledBy option instead, because screen readers prefer
aria-labelledby
attribute to aria-label
. ariaLabel and
ariaLabelledBy config options are mutually exclusive.
DOM selector for a child element that is to be used
as label for this Component, set in aria-labelledby
attribute.
If the selector is by #id
, the label element can be any existing element,
not necessarily a child of the main Component element.
ariaLabelledBy and ariaLabel config options are
mutually exclusive, and ariaLabelledBy
has the higher precedence.
Setting this config option adds or removes data bindings for other configs.
For example, to bind the title
config:
var panel = Ext.create({
xtype: 'panel',
bind: {
title: 'Hello {user.name}'
}
});
To dynamically add bindings:
panel.setBind({
title: 'Greetings {user.name}!'
});
To remove bindings:
panel.setBind({
title: null
});
The bind expressions are presented to Ext.app.ViewModel#bind
. The
ViewModel
instance is determined by lookupViewModel
.
Note: If bind is passed as a string, it will use the Ext.Component#property-defaultBindProperty for the binding.
Defaults to:
null
Enables or disables bordering on this component. The following values are accepted:
null
or `true (default): Do nothing and allow the border to be specified by the theme.false
: suppress the default border provided by the theme.Please note that enabling bordering via this config will not add a border-color
or border-style
CSS property to the component; you provide the border-color
and border-style
via CSS rule or style configuration
(if not already provide by the theme).
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
A string alias, a configuration object or an instance of a ViewController
for
this container. Sample usage:
Ext.define('MyApp.UserController', {
alias: 'controller.user'
});
Ext.define('UserContainer', {
extend: 'Ext.container.container',
controller: 'user'
});
// Or
Ext.define('UserContainer', {
extend: 'Ext.container.container',
controller: {
type: 'user',
someConfig: true
}
});
// Can also instance at runtime
var ctrl = new MyApp.UserController();
var view = new UserContainer({
controller: ctrl
});
Defaults to:
null
Returns the Ext.app.ViewController instance associated with this component via the controller config or setController method.
Returns this component's ViewController or null if one was not configured
If true
, this component will be the default scope (this pointer) for events
specified with string names so that the scope can be dynamically resolved. The
component will automatically become the defaultListenerScope if a
controller is specified.
See the introductory docs for Ext.container.Container for some sample usages.
NOTE: This value can only be reliably set at construction time. Setting it after that time may not correctly rewire all of the potentially effected listeners.
Defaults to:
false
Sets the value of defaultListenerScope
defaultListenerScope : Boolean
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
True to have the Canvas use JavaScript Number instead of single precision floating point for transforms.
For example, when using data with big numbers to plot line series, the transformation matrix of the canvas will have big elements. Due to the implementation of the SVGMatrix, the elements are represented by 32-bits floats, which will work incorrectly. To compensate for that, we enable the canvas context to perform all the transformations in JavaScript.
Do not use this if you are not encountering 32-bit floating point errors problem, since this will result in a performance penalty.
Defaults to:
false
An object containing handlers for keyboard events. The property names of this object are the key name and any modifiers. The values of the properties are the descriptors of how to handle each event.
The handler descriptor can be simply the handler function(either the literal function or the method name), or it can be an object with these properties:
handler
: The function or its name to call to handle the event.scope
: The this pointer context (can be "this" or "controller").event
: An optional override of the key event to which to listen.Important: Calls to setKeyMap
do not replace the entire keyMap
but
instead update the provided mappings. That is, unless null
is passed as the
value of the keyMap
which will clear the keyMap
of all entries.
Defaults to:
null
scope : String
The default scope to apply to key handlers
which do not specify a scope. This is processed the same way as the scope of
cfg-listeners. It defaults to the "controller"
, but using 'this'
means that an instance method will be used.
Enables or disables processing keys in the keyMap
. This value starts as
null
and if it is null
when initKeyMap
is called, it will automatically
be set to true
. Since initKeyMap
is called by Ext.Component
at the
proper time, this is not something application code normally handles.
Defaults to:
null
The name of the member that should be used to listen for keydown/keypress events. This is intended to be controlled at the class level not per instance.
Defaults to:
'el'
A config object containing one or more event handlers to be added to this object during initialization. This should be a valid listeners config object as specified in the addListener example for attaching multiple handlers at once.
DOM events from Ext JS Ext.Component
While some Ext JS Component classes export selected DOM events (e.g. "click",
"mouseover" etc), this is usually only done when extra value can be added. For example
the DataView's itemclick
event passing the node clicked on. To access DOM events directly from a child element
of a Component, we need to specify the element
option to identify the Component
property to add a DOM listener to:
new Ext.panel.Panel({
width: 400,
height: 200,
dockedItems: [{
xtype: 'toolbar'
}],
listeners: {
click: {
element: 'el', //bind to the underlying el property on the panel
fn: function(){ console.log('click el'); }
},
dblclick: {
element: 'body', //bind to the underlying body property on the panel
fn: function(){ console.log('dblclick body'); }
}
}
});
An alias for addListener. In versions prior to 5.1, listeners had a generated setter which could be called to add listeners. In 5.1 the listeners config is not processed using the config system and has no generated setter, so this method is provided for backward compatibility. The preferred way of adding listeners is to use the on method.
listeners : Object
The listeners
Set to true
for this component's name
property to be tracked by its containing
nameHolder
.
Defaults to:
false
This config describes one or more plugin config objects used to create plugin instances for this component.
Plugins are a way to bundle and reuse custom functionality. Plugins should extend
Ext.plugin.Abstract
but technically the only requirement for a valid plugin
is that it contain an init
method that accepts a reference to its owner. Once
a plugin is created, the owner will call the init
method, passing a reference
to itself. Each plugin can then call methods or respond to events on its owner
as needed to provide its functionality.
This config's value can take several different forms.
The value can be a single string with the plugin's Ext.enums.Plugin:
var list = Ext.create({
xtype: 'list',
itemTpl: '<div class="item">{title}</div>',
store: 'Items',
plugins: 'listpaging'
});
In the above examples, the string "listpaging" is the type alias for
listpaging
. The full alias includes the "plugin." prefix
(i.e., 'plugin.listpaging').
The preferred form for multiple plugins or to configure plugins is the keyed-object form (new in version 6.5):
var list = Ext.create({
xtype: 'list',
itemTpl: '<div class="item">{title}</div>',
store: 'Items',
plugins: {
pullrefresh: true,
listpaging: {
autoPaging: true,
weight: 10
}
}
});
The object keys are the id
's as well as the default type alias. This form
allows the value of the plugins
to be merged from base class to derived class
and finally with the instance configuration. This allows classes to define a
set of plugins that derived classes or instantiators can further configure or
disable. This merge behavior is a feature of the
config.
The plugins
config can also be an array of plugin aliases (arrays are not
merged so this form does not respect plugins defined by the class author):
var list = Ext.create({
xtype: 'list',
itemTpl: '<div class="item">{title}</div>',
store: 'Items',
plugins: ['listpaging', 'pullrefresh']
});
An array can also contain elements that are config objects with a type
property holding the type alias:
var list = Ext.create({
xtype: 'list',
itemTpl: '<div class="item">{title}</div>',
store: 'Items',
plugins: ['pullrefresh', {
type: 'listpaging',
autoPaging: true
}]
});
Defaults to:
null
Returns the value of plugins
Sets the value of plugins
plugins : Array / Ext.enums.Plugin / Object / Ext.plugin.Abstract
One or more names of config properties that this component should publish to its ViewModel. Generally speaking, only properties defined in a class config block (including ancestor config blocks and mixins) are eligible for publishing to the viewModel. Some components override this and publish their most useful configs by default.
Note: We'll discuss publishing properties not found in the config block below.
Values determined to be invalid by component (often form fields and model validations) will not be published to the ViewModel.
This config uses the cfg-reference
to determine the name of the data
object to place in the ViewModel
. If reference
is not set then this config
is ignored.
By using this config and cfg-reference
you can bind configs between
components. For example:
...
items: [{
xtype: 'textfield',
reference: 'somefield', // component's name in the ViewModel
publishes: 'value' // value is not published by default
},{
...
},{
xtype: 'displayfield',
bind: 'You have entered "{somefield.value}"'
}]
...
Classes must provide this config as an Object:
Ext.define('App.foo.Bar', {
publishes: {
foo: true,
bar: true
}
});
This is required for the config system to properly merge values from derived classes.
For instances this value can be specified as a value as show above or an array or object as follows:
{
xtype: 'textfield',
reference: 'somefield',
publishes: [
'value',
'rawValue',
'dirty'
]
}
// This achieves the same result as the above array form.
{
xtype: 'textfield',
reference: 'somefield',
publishes: {
value: true,
rawValue: true,
dirty: true
}
}
In some cases, users may want to publish a property to the viewModel that is not found in a class config block. In these situations, you may utilize publishState if the property has a setter method. Let's use setFieldLabel as an example:
setFieldLabel: function(fieldLabel) {
this.callParent(arguments);
this.publishState('fieldLabel', fieldLabel);
}
With the above chunk of code, fieldLabel may now be published to the viewModel.
Defaults to:
null
Available since: 5.0.0
The [x, y, width, height] rect of the surface related to its container.
Defaults to:
null
Specifies a name for this component inside its component hierarchy. This name must be unique within its view or its ViewController. See the documentation in Ext.container.Container for more information about references.
Note: Valid identifiers start with a letter or underscore and are followed by zero or more additional letters, underscores or digits. References are case sensitive.
Defaults to:
null
Optional element to render this Component to. Not required if this component is an item of a Container of a Container.
Defaults to:
null
If provided this creates a new Session
instance for this component. If this
is a Container
, this will then be inherited by all child components.
To create a new session you can specify true
:
Ext.create({
xtype: 'viewport',
session: true,
items: [{
...
}]
});
Alternatively, a config object can be provided:
Ext.create({
xtype: 'viewport',
session: {
...
},
items: [{
...
}]
});
Defaults to:
null
Sets the value of session
session : Boolean / Object / Ext.data.Session
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:
panX
panY
pinchZoom
doubleTapZoom
All 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
This object holds a map of config
properties that will update their binding
as they are modified. For example, value
is a key added by form fields. The
form of this config is the same as publishes
.
This config is defined so that updaters are not created and added for all bound properties since most cannot be modified by the end-user and hence are not appropriate for two-way binding.
Defaults to:
null
The ui or uis to be used on this Component
When a ui is configured, CSS class names are added to the element, created by appending the ui name(s) to each classCls and/or baseCls.
Defaults to:
null
One or more CSS classes to add to the component's primary element. This config is intended solely for use by the component instantiator (the "user"), not by derived classes.
For example:
items: [{
xtype: 'button',
userCls: 'my-button'
...
}]
Defaults to:
null
The ViewModel
is a data provider for this component and its children. The
data contained in the ViewModel
is typically used by adding bind
configs
to the components that want present or edit this data.
When set, the ViewModel
is created and links to any inherited viewModel
instance from an ancestor container as the "parent". The ViewModel
hierarchy,
once established, only supports creation or destruction of children. The
parent of a ViewModel
cannot be changed on the fly.
If this is a root-level ViewModel
, the data model connection is made to this
component's associated Ext.data.Session
. This is
determined by calling getInheritedSession
.
Defaults to:
null
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
Matches options property names within a listeners specification object - property names which are never used as event names.
Defaults to:
{ scope: 1, delay: 1, buffer: 1, onFrame: 1, single: 1, args: 1, destroyable: 1, priority: 1, order: 1 }
We don't want the base destructor to clear the prototype because our destroyObservable handler must be called the very last. It will take care of the prototype after completing Observable destruction sequence.
Defaults to:
true
The name of the Component property that holds a reference to the Element that serves as that Component's ARIA element. This property will be replaced with the actual Element reference after rendering.
Most of the simple Components will have their main element as ariaEl.
Defaults to:
'el'
Available since: 6.0.0
Instance specific ARIA attributes to render into Component's ariaEl. This object is only used during rendering, and is discarded afterwards.
ARIA role for this Component, defaults to no role. With no role, no other ARIA attributes are set.
true
indicates an id
was auto-generated rather than provided by configuration.
Defaults to:
false
Available since: 6.7.0
true
if this currently focused element
is within this Component's or Container's hierarchy. This property is set separately
from hasFocus, and can be true
when hasFocus
is false
.
Examples:
Text field with input element focused would be: focusable: true, hasFocus: true, containsFocus: true
Date field with drop-down picker currently focused would be: focusable: true, hasFocus: false, containsFocus: true
Form Panel with a child input field currently focused would be: focusable: false, hasFocus: false, containsFocus: true
See also hasFocus.
Defaults to:
false
This property is used to determine the property of a bind
config that is just
the value. For example, if defaultBindProperty="value"
, then this shorthand
bind
config:
bind: '{name}'
Is equivalent to this object form:
bind: {
value: '{name}'
}
The defaultBindProperty
is set to "value" for form fields and to "store" for
grids and trees.
Defaults to:
null
The reported device pixel density. devicePixelRatio is only supported from IE11, so we use deviceXDPI and logicalXDPI that are supported from IE6.
Initial suspended call count. Incremented when suspendEvents is called, decremented when resumeEvents is called.
Defaults to:
0
If this property is specified by the target class of this mixin its properties are
used to configure the created Ext.Factory
.
true
for keyboard interactive Components or Widgets, false
otherwise.
For Containers, this property reflects interactiveness of the
Container itself, not its children. See isFocusable.
Note: It is not enough to set this property to true
to make
a component keyboard interactive. You also need to make sure that
the component's focusEl is reachable via Tab key (tabbable).
See also tabIndex.
Defaults to:
false
The element that will have the focusCls applied when component's focusEl is focused.
The element that will be focused when focus method is called on this component. Usually this is the same element that receives focus via mouse clicks, taps, and pressing Tab key.
Defaults to:
'el'
true
if this component's focusEl is focused.
See also containsFocus.
Defaults to:
false
This object holds a key for any event that has a listener. The listener may be set directly on the instance, or on its class or a super class (via observe) or on the MVC EventBus. The values of this object are truthy (a non-zero number) and falsy (0 or undefined). They do not represent an exact count of listeners. The value for an event is truthy if the event must be fired and is falsy if there is no need to fire the event.
The intended use of this property is to avoid the expense of fireEvent calls when there are no listeners. This can be particularly helpful when one would otherwise have to call fireEvent hundreds or thousands of times. It is used like this:
if (this.hasListeners.foo) {
this.fireEvent('foo', this, arg1);
}
Template method to do any Focusable related initialization that does not involve event listeners creation.
Defaults to:
Ext.emptyFn
true
in this class to identify an object as an instantiated Observable, or subclass
thereof.
Defaults to:
true
The last key event processed is cached on the component for use in subsequent event handlers.
Available since: 6.6.0
Regular expression used for validating reference
values.
Defaults to:
/^[a-z_][a-z0-9_]*$/i
Adds declarative listeners as nested arrays of listener objects.
listeners : Array
true
if any listeners were added
Creates a particular plugin type if defined in the plugins
configuration.
Available since: 6.2.0
type : String
The type
of the plugin.
The plugin that was created.
Adds a listeners with the "delegate" event option. Users should not invoke this method directly. Use the "delegate" event option of addListener instead.
eventName : Object
fn : Object
scope : Object
options : Object
order : Object
caller : Object
manager : Object
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 -100
Defaults to:
'current'
order : String (optional)
A shortcut for the order
event option. Provided for backward compatibility.
Please use the priority
event option instead.
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.SomeSharedMenu, '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();

eventName : Object
args : Object
Continue to fire event.
eventName : String
args : Array
bubbles : Boolean
Enables events fired by this Observable to bubble up an owner hierarchy by calling
this.getBubbleTarget()
if present. There is no implementation in the Observable
base class.
This is commonly used by Ext.Components to bubble events to owner Containers. See Ext.Component#getBubbleTarget. The default implementation in Ext.Component returns the Component's immediate owner. But if a known target is required, this can be overridden to access the required target more quickly.
Example:
Ext.define('Ext.overrides.form.field.Base', {
override: 'Ext.form.field.Base',
// Add functionality to Field's initComponent to enable
// the change event to bubble
initComponent: function () {
this.callParent();
this.enableBubble('change');
}
});
var myForm = Ext.create('Ext.form.Panel', {
title: 'User Details',
items: [{
...
}],
listeners: {
change: function() {
// Title goes red if form has been modified.
myForm.header.setStyle('color', 'red');
}
}
});
eventNames : String/String[]
The event name to bubble, or an Array of event names.
Finds an alternate Component to focus if this Component is disabled while focused, or focused while disabled, or otherwise unable to focus.
In both cases, focus must not be lost to document.body, but must move to an intuitively connectible Component, either a sibling, or uncle or nephew.
This is both for the convenience of keyboard users, and also for when focus is tracked within a Component tree such as for ComboBoxes and their dropdowns.
For example, a ComboBox with a PagingToolbar in is BoundList. If the "Next Page" button is hit, the LoadMask shows and focuses, the next page is the last page, so the "Next Page" button is disabled. When the LoadMask hides, it attempt to focus the last focused Component which is the disabled "Next Page" button. In this situation, focus should move to a sibling within the PagingToolbar.
A closely related focusable Component to which focus can move.
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 and executes a function (action).
By default, the action function will be executed after any "before" event handlers
(as specified using the order
option of
addListener
), but before any other
handlers are fired. This gives the "before" handlers an opportunity to
cancel the event by returning false
, and prevent the action function from
being called.
The action can also be configured to run after normal handlers, but before any "after"
handlers (as specified using the order
event option) by passing 'after'
as the order
parameter. This configuration gives any event handlers except
for "after" handlers the opportunity to cancel the event and prevent the action
function from being called.
eventName : String
The name of the event to fire.
args : Array
Arguments to pass to handlers and to the action function.
fn : Function
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.
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.
Fires the specified event with the passed parameters (minus the event name, plus
the options

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

Returns the element used to apply focus styling CSS class when Focusable's focusEl becomes focused. By default it is focusEl.
focusEl : Ext.dom.Element (optional)
Return focus styling element for the given focused element. This is used by Components implementing multiple focusable elements.
The focus styling element.
Returns the main focus holder element associated with this Focusable, i.e. the element that will be focused when Focusable's focus method is called. For most Focusables, this will be the focusEl.
Retrieves the id
. This method Will auto-generate an id if one has not already
been configured.
id
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
.

id : String
The id
of the plugin.
plugin instance or null
if not found.
Used by Ext.ComponentQuery, and the up method to find the owning Component in the linkage hierarchy.
By default this returns the Container which contains this Component.
This may be overridden by Component authors who implement ownership hierarchies which are not based upon ownerCt, such as BoundLists being owned by Fields or Menus being owned by Buttons.
Return the actual tabIndex for this Focusable.
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.
This method triggers the lazy configs and must be called when it is time to
fully boot up. The configs that must be initialized are: bind
, publishes
,
session
, twoWayBindable
and viewModel
.
Available since: 5.0.0
Sets up the focus listener on this Component's focusEl if it has one.
Form Components which must implicitly participate in tabbing order usually have
a naturally focusable element as their focusEl, and it is
the DOM event of that receiving focus which drives the Component's onFocus
handling,
and the DOM event of it being blurred which drives the onBlur
handling.
force : Object
Template method to do any event listener initialization for a Focusable. This generally happens after the focusEl is available.
force : Object
This method is called to initialize the inheritedState
objects for this instance.
This amounts to typically copying certain properties from the instance to the given
object.
Available since: 5.0.0
inheritedState : Object
The state object for this instance.
inheritedStateInner : Object (optional)
This object is only provided for containers.
This method should be called when the instance is ready to start listening for
keyboard events. This is called automatically for Ext.Component
and derived
classes. This is done after the component is rendered.
This method marks the current inherited state as invalid. The next time a call is
made to getInherited
the objects will be recreated and initialized.
Available since: 5.0.0
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.

true
if the passed property receives data from a ViewModel.
Determines whether this component is the descendant of a passed component.

if the component is the descendant of the passed component,
otherwise false
.
Determines if this Component is inside a Component tree which is destroyed, or is being destroyed.
true
if this Component, or any ancestor is destroyed, or
is being destroyed.
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.

event : String (optional)
The name of the specific event to check
true
if events are suspended
Checks if a particular binding is synchronizing the value.

true
to not consider the controller directly attached
to this view (if it exists).
Defaults to: false
The controller. null
if no controller is found.
Gets the Form or Component that is used as the name holder for this component.
Available since: 6.5.0
skipThis : Boolean (optional)
false
to return this as the name holder if
this instance has set nameHolder
. Unlike getInheritedConfig
this method
defaults to true
because it is possible that a name
property set by the
owner of a component that is also a nameHolder
itself. In this case, the
name
connects not to this component but to the parent nameHolder.
Defaults to: true
The name holder.
Gets the Controller or Component that is used as the reference holder for this view.
Available since: 5.0.0
skipThis : Boolean (optional)
false
to return this as the reference holder if
this instance has set referenceHolder
. Unlike getInheritedConfig
this method
defaults to true
because it is possible that a reference
property set by the
owner of a component that is also a referenceHolder
itself. In this case, the
reference
connects not to this component but to the parent referenceHolder.
Defaults to: true
The reference holder.
Returns the Ext.data.Session
for this instance. This property may come
from this instance's session
or be inherited from this object's parent.
Available since: 5.0.0
skipThis : Boolean (optional)
Pass true
to ignore a session
configured on
this instance and only consider an inherited session.
Defaults to: false
Returns the Ext.app.ViewModel
for this instance. This property may come from this
this instance's viewModel
or be inherited from this object's parent.
Available since: 5.0.0
skipThis : Boolean (optional)
Pass true
to ignore a viewModel
configured on
this instance and only consider an inherited view model.
Defaults to: false
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)

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 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 -100
Defaults 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();

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.
Publish this components state to the ViewModel
. If no arguments are given (or if
this is the first call), the entire state is published. This state is determined by
the publishes
property.
This method is called only by component authors.
Available since: 5.0.0
property : String (optional)
The name of the property to update.
value : Object (optional)
The value of property
. Only needed if property
is given.
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();

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.
destroy : Boolean (optional)
Pass true
to not call destroy()
on the plugin.
plugin instance or null
if not found.

Defaults to: this
The default event scope
Returns the default listener scope for a "satellite" of this component. Used for resolving scope for observable objects that are not part of the normal Container/Component hierarchy (for example, plugins)
Available since: 5.1.1
satellite : Ext.mixin.Observable
defaultScope : Object (optional)
The listener scope
Resumes firing of the named event(s).
After calling this method to resume events, the events will fire when requested to fire.
Note that if the suspendEvent method is called multiple times for a certain event, this converse method will have to be called the same number of times for it to resume firing.
eventName : String...
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.
This field is on the recieving end of a call from revertFocus.
It is called when focus is being pushed back into this Component from a Component that is focused and is being hidden or disabled.
We must focus the passed element.
Subclasses may perform some extra processing to prepare for refocusing.
target : Object
Set the tabIndex property for this Focusable. If the focusEl is available, set tabIndex attribute on it, too.
newTabIndex : Number
new tabIndex to set
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'
});

fn : Function/String
The handler to remove.
scope : Object (optional)
The scope originally specified for fn
.
options : Object (optional)
Extra options object.
Removes a before-event handler.
Same as removeListener with order
set to 'before'
.
eventName : String/String[]/Object
The name of the event the handler was associated with.

Walks up the ownership hierarchy looking for an ancestor Component which matches the passed simple selector.
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.

if no match was found).
Updates the viewModel config.
viewModel : Ext.app.ViewModel
oldViewModel : Ext.app.ViewModel
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).
