RapidContext.Widget

Methods

addAll(…child)

Adds one or more children to this widget. This method will flatten any arrays among the arguments and ignores any null or undefined arguments. Any DOM nodes or widgets will be added to the end, and other objects will be converted to a text node first. Subclasses should normally override the addChildNode() method instead of this one, since that is the basis for DOM node insertion.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Attributes	Description
`child`	{string\|Node\|Array}	<repeatable>	the children to add

Inherited From:

RapidContext.Widget#addAll

Source:

RapidContext_Widget.js, line 570

addChildNode(child)

Adds a single child page widget to this widget. The child widget should be a RapidContext.Widget.Pane widget, or it will be added to a new one.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
`child`	{Widget}	the page widget to add

Overrides:

RapidContext.Widget#addChildNode

See:

RapidContext.Widget.Pane

Source:

RapidContext_Widget_TabContainer.js, line 119

addClass(…cls)

Adds the specified CSS class names to this HTML DOM node.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Attributes	Description
`cls`	{string\|Array}	<repeatable>	the CSS class names to add

Inherited From:

RapidContext.Widget#addClass

Source:

RapidContext_Widget.js, line 333

animate(opts)

Performs a visual effect animation on this widget. This is implemented using the MochiKit.Visual effect package. All options sent to this function will be passed on to the appropriate MochiKit.Visual function.

Parameters:

Name Type Description

opts

{Object}

the visual effect options

Properties

Name	Type	Description
`effect`	{string}	the MochiKit.Visual effect name
`queue`	{string}	the MochiKit.Visual queue handling, defaults to "replace" and a unique scope for each widget (see `MochiKit.Visual` for full options)

Inherited From:

RapidContext.Widget#animate

Deprecated:

Use CSS animations instead.

Example:

widget.animate({ effect: "fade", duration: 0.5 });
widget.animate({ effect: "Move", transition: "spring", y: 300 });

Source:

RapidContext_Widget.js, line 492

blurAll()

Blurs (unfocuses) this DOM node and all relevant child nodes. This function will recursively blur all <a>, <button>, <input>, <textarea> and <select> child nodes found.

Inherited From:: RapidContext.Widget#blurAll
Source:: RapidContext_Widget.js, line 510

destroy()

Destroys this widget.

Overrides:: RapidContext.Widget#destroy
Source:: RapidContext_Widget_TabContainer.js, line 78

disable()

Disables this widget if it was previously enabled. This method is equivalent to calling setAttrs({ disabled: true }).

Inherited From:: RapidContext.Widget#disable
Source:: RapidContext_Widget.js, line 424

enable()

Enables this widget if it was previously disabled. This is equivalent to calling setAttrs({ disabled: false }).

Inherited From:: RapidContext.Widget#enable
Source:: RapidContext_Widget.js, line 416

getChildNodes() → {Array}

Returns an array with all child pane widgets. Note that the array is a real JavaScript array, not a dynamic NodeList.

Returns:: {Array} the array of child DOM nodes
Overrides:: RapidContext.Widget#getChildNodes
Source:: RapidContext_Widget_TabContainer.js, line 106

hasClass(…cls) → {boolean}

Checks if this HTML DOM node has the specified CSS class names. Note that more than one CSS class name may be checked, in which case all must be present.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Attributes	Description
`cls`	{string\|Array}	<repeatable>	the CSS class names to check

Returns:

{boolean} true if all CSS classes were present, or false otherwise

Inherited From:

RapidContext.Widget#hasClass

Source:

RapidContext_Widget.js, line 315

hide()

Hides this widget node if it was previously visible. This method is equivalent to calling setAttrs({ hidden: true }). It is safe for all types of widgets, since it only adds the widgetHidden CSS class instead of setting the display style property.

Inherited From:: RapidContext.Widget#hide
Source:: RapidContext_Widget.js, line 470

isDisabled() → {boolean}

Checks if this widget is disabled. This method checks both the "widgetDisabled" CSS class and the disabled property. Changes to the disabled status can be made with enable(), disable() or setAttrs().

Returns:: {boolean} true if the widget is disabled, or false otherwise
Inherited From:: RapidContext.Widget#isDisabled
Source:: RapidContext_Widget.js, line 395

isHidden() → {boolean}

Checks if this widget node is hidden. This method checks for the existence of the widgetHidden CSS class. It does NOT check the actual widget visibility (the display style property set by animations for example).

Returns:: {boolean} true if the widget is hidden, or false otherwise
Inherited From:: RapidContext.Widget#isHidden
Source:: RapidContext_Widget.js, line 437

removeAll()

Removes all children to this widget. This method will also destroy and child widgets and disconnect all signal listeners. This method uses the getChildNodes() and removeChildNode() methods to find and remove the individual child nodes.

Inherited From:: RapidContext.Widget#removeAll
Source:: RapidContext_Widget.js, line 582

removeChildNode(child)

Removes a single child DOM node from this widget. This method is sometimes overridden by child widgets in order to hide or control intermediate DOM nodes required by the widget.

Note that this method will NOT destroy the removed child widget, so care must be taken to ensure proper child widget destruction.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
`child`	{Widget\|Node}	the DOM node to remove

Overrides:

RapidContext.Widget#removeChildNode

Source:

RapidContext_Widget_TabContainer.js, line 149

removeClass(…cls)

Removes the specified CSS class names from this HTML DOM node. Note that this method will not remove any class starting with "widget".

Parameters:

Name	Type	Attributes	Description
`cls`	{string\|Array}	<repeatable>	the CSS class names to remove

Inherited From:

RapidContext.Widget#removeClass

Source:

RapidContext_Widget.js, line 353

selectChild(indexOrChildopt)

Selects a specified child in the tab container. This method can be called without arguments to re-select the currently selected tab.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Attributes	Description
`indexOrChild`	{number\|Node}	<optional>	the child index or node

Source:

RapidContext_Widget_TabContainer.js, line 200

selectedChild() → {Node}

Returns the child widget currently selected in the tab container.

Returns:: {Node} the child widget selected, or null if no child is selected
Source:: RapidContext_Widget_TabContainer.js, line 189

selectedIndex() → {number}

Returns the index of the currently selected child in the tab container.

Returns:: {number} the index of the selected child, or -1 if no child is selected
Source:: RapidContext_Widget_TabContainer.js, line 179

setAttrs(attrs)

Updates the widget or HTML DOM node attributes. This method is sometimes overridden by individual widgets to allow modification of additional widget attributes.

Parameters:

Name Type Description

attrs

{Object}

the widget and node attributes to set

Properties

Name	Type	Attributes	Description
`disabled`	{boolean}	<optional>	the disabled widget flag
`hidden`	{boolean}	<optional>	the hidden widget flag
`class`	{string}	<optional>	the CSS class names

Inherited From:

RapidContext.Widget#setAttrs

Source:

RapidContext_Widget.js, line 246

setStyle(styles)

Updates the CSS styles of this HTML DOM node. This method is identical to MochiKit.Style.setStyle, but uses "this" as the first argument.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
`styles`	{Object}	an object with the styles to set

Inherited From:

RapidContext.Widget#setStyle

Example:

widget.setStyle({ "font-size": "bold", "color": "red" });

Source:

RapidContext_Widget.js, line 294

show()

Shows this widget node if it was previously hidden. This method is equivalent to calling setAttrs({ hidden: false }). It is safe for all types of widgets, since it only removes the widgetHidden CSS class instead of setting the display style property.

Inherited From:: RapidContext.Widget#show
Source:: RapidContext_Widget.js, line 460

toggleClass(…cls) → {boolean}

Toggles adding and removing the specified CSS class names to and from this HTML DOM node. If all the CSS classes are already set, they will be removed. Otherwise they will be added.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Attributes	Description
`cls`	{string\|Array}	<repeatable>	the CSS class names to remove

Returns:

{boolean} true if the CSS classes were added, or false otherwise

Inherited From:

RapidContext.Widget#toggleClass

Source:

RapidContext_Widget.js, line 376

uid() → {string}

Returns:: {string} the the unique DOM node identifier
