Methods

`@renderUI`

() protected

Inherited from DataTable.Base: yui3/src/datatable/js/base.js:425

Available since 3.6.0

Instantiates the configured view class that will be responsible for setting up the View class.

`_addAttrs`

(

cfgs
values
lazy

)

private

Inherited from AttributeCore: yui3/src/attribute/js/AttributeCore.js:877

Implementation behind the public addAttrs method.

This method is invoked directly by get if it encounters a scenario in which an attribute's valueFn attempts to obtain the value an attribute in the same group of attributes, which has not yet been added (on demand initialization).

Parameters:

cfgs Object

An object with attribute name/configuration pairs.
values Object

An object with attribute name/value pairs, defining the initial values to apply. Values defined in the cfgs argument will be over-written by values in this argument unless defined as read only.
lazy Boolean

Whether or not to delay the intialization of these attributes until the first call to get/set. Individual attributes can over-ride this behavior by defining a lazyAdd configuration property in their configuration. See <a href="#method_addAttr">addAttr</a>.

`_addLazyAttr`

(

name
[lazyCfg]

)

private

Inherited from AttributeCore: yui3/src/attribute/js/AttributeCore.js:360

Finishes initializing an attribute which has been lazily added.

Parameters:

name Object

The name of the attribute
[lazyCfg] Object optional

Optional config hash for the attribute. This is added for performance along the critical path, where the calling method has already obtained lazy config from state.

`_addOutOfOrder`

(

name
cfg

)

private

Inherited from AttributeCore: yui3/src/attribute/js/AttributeCore.js:550

Utility method used by get/set to add attributes encountered out of order when calling addAttrs().

`_filterUIEvent`

(

evt

)

Boolean private

Inherited from Widget: yui3/src/widget/js/WidgetUIEvents.js:117

This method is used to determine if we should fire the UI Event or not. The default implementation makes sure that for nested delegates (nested unrelated widgets), we don't fire the UI event listener more than once at each level.

For example, without the additional filter, if you have nested widgets, each widget will have a delegate listener. If you click on the inner widget, the inner delegate listener's filter will match once, but the outer will match twice (based on delegate's design) - once for the inner widget, and once for the outer.

Parameters:

evt DOMEventFacade

Returns:

Boolean:

true if it's OK to fire the custom UI event, false if not.

`_setColumns`

(

val

)

Null | Object protected

Inherited from DataTable: yui3/src/datatable/js/core.js:685

Translates string columns into objects with that string as the value of its key property.

All columns are assigned a _yuid stamp and _id property corresponding to the column's configured name or key property with any spaces replaced with dashes. If the same name or key appears in multiple columns, subsequent appearances will have their _id appended with an incrementing number (e.g. if column "foo" is included in the columns attribute twice, the first will get _id of "foo", and the second an _id of "foo1"). Columns that are children of other columns will have the _parent property added, assigned the column object to which they belong.

Parameters:

val Null | Object | String

Array of config objects or strings

`addAttr`

(

name
config
lazy

)

Object chainable

Inherited from AttributeCore: yui3/src/attribute/js/AttributeCore.js:157

Adds an attribute with the provided configuration to the host object. The config argument object supports the following properties:

<dl> <dt>value <Any></dt> <dd>The initial value to set on the attribute</dd>

<dt>valueFn <Function | String></dt> <dd> A function, which will return the initial value to set on the attribute. This is useful for cases where the attribute configuration is defined statically, but needs to reference the host instance ("this") to obtain an initial value. If both the value and valueFn properties are defined, the value returned by the valueFn has precedence over the value property, unless it returns undefined, in which case the value property is used.

valueFn can also be set to a string, representing the name of the instance method to be used to retrieve the value. </dd>

<dt>readOnly <boolean></dt> <dd>Whether or not the attribute is read only. Attributes having readOnly set to true cannot be modified by invoking the set method.</dd>

<dt>writeOnce <boolean> or <string></dt> <dd> Whether or not the attribute is "write once". Attributes having writeOnce set to true, can only have their values set once, be it through the default configuration, constructor configuration arguments, or by invoking set. The writeOnce attribute can also be set to the string "initOnly", in which case the attribute can only be set during initialization (when used with Base, this means it can only be set during construction) </dd>

<dt>setter <Function | String></dt> <dd> The setter function used to massage or normalize the value passed to the set method for the attribute. The value returned by the setter will be the final stored value. Returning <a href="#property_Attribute.INVALID_VALUE">Attribute.INVALID_VALUE</a>, from the setter will prevent the value from being stored.

setter can also be set to a string, representing the name of the instance method to be used as the setter function. </dd>

<dt>getter <Function | String></dt> <dd> The getter function used to massage or normalize the value returned by the get method for the attribute. The value returned by the getter function is the value which will be returned to the user when they invoke get.

getter can also be set to a string, representing the name of the instance method to be used as the getter function. </dd>

<dt>validator <Function | String></dt> <dd> The validator function invoked prior to setting the stored value. Returning false from the validator function will prevent the value from being stored.

validator can also be set to a string, representing the name of the instance method to be used as the validator function. </dd>

<dt>lazyAdd <boolean></dt> <dd>Whether or not to delay initialization of the attribute until the first call to get/set it. This flag can be used to over-ride lazy initialization on a per attribute basis, when adding multiple attributes through the <a href="#method_addAttrs">addAttrs</a> method.</dd>

</dl>

The setter, getter and validator are invoked with the value and name passed in as the first and second arguments, and with the context ("this") set to the host object.

Configuration properties outside of the list mentioned above are considered private properties used internally by attribute, and are not intended for public use.

Parameters:

name String

The name of the attribute.
config Object

An object with attribute configuration property/value pairs, specifying the configuration for the attribute. NOTE: The configuration object is modified when adding an attribute, so if you need to protect the original values, you will need to merge the object.
lazy Boolean

(optional) Whether or not to add this attribute lazily (on the first call to get/set).

Returns:

Object:

`addAttrs`

(

cfgs
values
lazy

)

Object chainable

Inherited from AttributeCore: yui3/src/attribute/js/AttributeCore.js:846

Configures a group of attributes, and sets initial values.

NOTE: This method does not isolate the configuration object by merging/cloning. The caller is responsible for merging/cloning the configuration object if required.

Parameters:

cfgs Object

An object with attribute name/configuration pairs.
values Object

An object with attribute name/value pairs, defining the initial values to apply. Values defined in the cfgs argument will be over-written by values in this argument unless defined as read only.
lazy Boolean

Whether or not to delay the intialization of these attributes until the first call to get/set. Individual attributes can over-ride this behavior by defining a lazyAdd configuration property in their configuration. See <a href="#method_addAttr">addAttr</a>.

Returns:

Object:

`addColumn`

(

config
[index]

)

DataTable chainable

Inherited from DataTable: yui3/src/datatable/js/mutable.js:60

Available since 3.5.0

Adds the column configuration to the DataTable's columns configuration. If the index parameter is supplied, it is injected at that index. If the table has nested headers, inject a subcolumn by passing an array of indexes to identify the new column's final location.

The index parameter is required if adding a nested column.

This method is a convienience method for fetching the DataTable's columns attribute, updating it, and calling table.set('columns', _updatedColumnsDefs_)

For example:

<pre><code>// Becomes last column table.addColumn('name');

// Inserted after the current second column, moving the current third column // to index 4 table.addColumn({ key: 'price', formatter: currencyFormatter }, 2 );

// Insert a new column in a set of headers three rows deep. The index array // translates to // [ 2, -- in the third column's children // 1, -- in the second child's children // 3 ] -- as the fourth child column table.addColumn({ key: 'age', sortable: true }, [ 2, 1, 3 ]); </code></pre>

Parameters:

config Object | String

DataTable chainable

Inherited from DataTable: yui3/src/datatable/js/mutable.js:198

Available since 3.5.0

Adds a new record to the DataTable's data ModelList. Record data can be an object of field values or an instance of the DataTable's configured recordType class.

This relays all parameters to the data ModelList's add method.

If a configuration object is passed as a second argument, and that object has sync: true set, the underlying Model will be save()d.

If the DataTable's autoSync attribute is set to true, the additional argument is not needed.

If syncing and the last argument is a function, that function will be used as a callback to the Model's save() method.

Parameters:

data Object

The data or Model instance for the new record
[config] Object optional

Configuration to pass along
[callback] Function optional

Callback function for Model's save()
- err Error | Null
  
  If an error occurred or validation failed, this parameter will contain the error. If the sync operation succeeded, err will be null.
- response Any
  
  The server's response. This value will be passed to the parse() method, which is expected to parse it and return an attribute hash.

Returns:

DataTable:

Adds an array of new records to the DataTable's data ModelList. Record data can be an array of objects containing field values or an array of instance of the DataTable's configured recordType class.

This relays all parameters to the data ModelList's add method.

Technically, this is an alias to addRow, but please use the appropriately named method for readability.

If a configuration object is passed as a second argument, and that object has sync: true set, the underlying Models will be save()d.

If the DataTable's autoSync attribute is set to true, the additional argument is not needed.

If syncing and the last argument is a function, that function will be used as a callback to each Model's save() method.

Parameters:

data Object

The data or Model instances to add
[config] Object optional

Configuration to pass along
[callback] Function optional

Callback function for each Model's save()
- err Error | Null
  
  If an error occurred or validation failed, this parameter will contain the error. If the sync operation succeeded, err will be null.
- response Any

Boolean

Inherited from EventTarget: yui3/src/event-custom/js/event-target.js:673

Fire a custom event by name. The callback functions will be executed from the context specified when the event was created, and with the following parameters.

The first argument is the event type, and any additional arguments are passed to the listeners as parameters. If the first of these is an object literal, and the event is configured to emit an event facade, that object is mixed into the event facade and the facade is provided in place of the original object.

If the custom event object hasn't been created, then the event hasn't been published and it has no subscribers. For performance sake, we immediate exit in this case. This means the event won't bubble, so if the intention is that a bubble target be notified, the event must be published on this object first.

Parameters:

type String | Object

The type of the event, or an object that contains a 'type' property.
arguments Object

an arbitrary set of parameters to pass to the handler. If the first of these is an object literal and the event is configured to emit an event facade, the event facade will replace that parameter after the properties the object literal contains are copied to the event facade.

Returns:

Boolean:

True if the whole lifecycle of the event went through, false if at any point the event propagation was halted.

EventHandle

Inherited from EventTarget: yui3/src/event-custom/js/event-target.js:188

Subscribe a callback function to a custom event fired by this object or from an object that bubbles its events to this object.

 this.on("change", this._onChange, this);

Callback functions for events published with emitFacade = true will receive an EventFacade as the first argument (typically named "e"). These callbacks can then call e.preventDefault() to disable the behavior published to that event's defaultFn. See the EventFacade API for all available properties and methods. Subscribers to non-emitFacade events will receive the arguments passed to fire() after the event name.

To subscribe to multiple events at once, pass an object as the first argument, where the key:value pairs correspond to the eventName:callback.

 this.on({
                                                     "attrChange" : this._onAttrChange,
                                                     "change"     : this._onChange
                                                 });

You can also pass an array of event names as the first argument to subscribe to all listed events with the same callback.

 this.on([ "change", "attrChange" ], this._onChange);

Returning false from a callback is supported as an alternative to calling e.preventDefault(); e.stopPropagation();. However, it is recommended to use the event methods whenever possible.

Parameters:

type String

If the selector string returns more than one Node, the first node will be used as the parentNode. NOTE: This argument is required if both the boundingBox and contentBox are not currently in the document. If it's not provided, the Widget will be rendered to the body of the current document in this case.

`renderer`

Function

Inherited from DataTable: yui3/src/datatable/js/core.js:87

Available since 3.5.0

Model subclass to use as the model for the ModelList stored in the data attribute.

If not provided, it will try really hard to figure out what to use. The following attempts will be made to set a default value:

If the data attribute is set with a ModelList instance and its model property is set, that will be used.
If the data attribute is set with a ModelList instance, and its model property is unset, but it is populated, the ATTRS of the `constructor of the first item will be used.
If the data attribute is set with a non-empty array, a Model subclass will be generated using the keys of the first item as its ATTRS (see the _createRecordClass method).
If the columns attribute is set, a Model subclass will be generated using the columns defined with a key. This is least desirable because columns can be duplicated or nested in a way that's not parsable.
If neither data nor columns is set or populated, a change event subscriber will listen for the first to be changed and try all over again.

Inherited from BaseObservable: yui3/src/base/js/BaseObservable.js:62

Lifecycle event for the init phase, fired prior to initialization. Invoking the preventDefault() method on the event object provided to subscribers will prevent initialization from occuring. Subscribers to the "after" momemt of this event, will be notified after initialization of the object is complete (and therefore cannot prevent initialization).

Event Payload:

e EventFacade

Event object, with a cfg property which refers to the configuration object passed to the constructor.

Event Payload:

column Object | String | Number | Number[]

The column definition object or identifier

`render`

Inherited from Widget: yui3/src/widget/js/Widget.js:539

Lifecycle event for the render phase, fired prior to rendering the UI for the widget (prior to invoking the widget's renderer method). Subscribers to the "on" moment of this event, will be notified before the widget is rendered. Subscribers to the "after" moment of this event, will be notified after rendering is complete.

Event Payload:

e EventFacade

The Event Facade

`sort`

Inherited from DataTable: yui3/src/datatable/js/sort.js:201

Notifies of an impending sort, either from clicking on a column header, or from a call to the sort or toggleSort method.

The requested sort is available in the sortBy property of the event.

The default behavior of this event sets the table's sortBy attribute.

Event Payload:

sortBy String | String | Object | Object

The requested sort

`widget:contentUpdate`

Inherited from Widget: yui3/src/widget/js/Widget.js:397

Notification event, which widget implementations can fire, when they change the content of the widget. This event has no default behavior and cannot be prevented, so the "on" or "after" moments are effectively equivalent (with on listeners being invoked before after listeners).

Event Payload:

e EventFacade

The Event Facade
