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>.

`_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:

`addAttr`

(

name

)

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:

A reference to the host object.

`addAttrs`

(

cfgs
values

)

Object chainable

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

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:

A reference to the host object.

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.

The properties which can be modified through this interface are limited to the following subset of attributes, which can be safely modified after a value has already been set on the attribute: <dl> <dt>readOnly;</dt> <dt>writeOnce;</dt> <dt>broadcast; and</dt> <dt>getter.</dt> </dl> Note: New attributes cannot be added using this interface. New attributes must be added using <a href="../classes/AttributeCore.html#method_addAttr" class="crosslink">addAttr</a>, or an appropriate manner for a class which utilises Attributes (e.g. the <a href="../classes/Base.html#property_ATTRS" class="crosslink">ATTRS</a> property in <a href="../classes/Base.html" class="crosslink">Base</a>).

Parameters:

name String

The name of the attribute whose configuration is to be updated.
config Object

An object with configuration property/value pairs, specifying the configuration properties to modify.

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

The name of the event
fn Function

The callback to execute in response to the event

A set of tokens that can precede a regular expression literal in javascript http://web.archive.org/web/20070717142515/http://www.mozilla.org/js/language/js20/rationale/syntax.html has the full list, but I've removed ones that might be problematic when seen in languages that don't support regular expression literals.

Specifically, I've removed any keywords that can't precede a regexp literal in a syntactically legal javascript program, and I've removed the "in" keyword since it's not a keyword in many languages, and might be used as a count of inches.

The link above does not accurately describe EcmaScript rules since it fails to distinguish between (a=++/b/i) and (a++/b/i) but it works very well in practice.

Default: The moment the console module is <code>use</code>d

`strings`

Object

Inherited from Widget but overwritten in yui3/src/console/js/console.js:1254

Collection of strings used to label elements in the Console UI. Default collection contains the following name:value pairs:

<ul> <li>title : "Log Console"</li> <li>pause : "Pause"</li> <li>clear : "Clear"</li> <li>collapse : "Collapse"</li> <li>expand : "Expand"</li> </ul>

`style`

String

Defined in yui3/src/console/js/console.js:1495

Allows the Console to flow in the document. Available values are 'inline', 'block', and 'separate' (the default).

Default: 'separate'

`tabIndex`

Number

Inherited from Widget: yui3/src/widget/js/Widget.js:202

Number (between -32767 to 32767) indicating the widget's position in the default tab flow. The value is used to set the "tabIndex" attribute on the widget's bounding box. Negative values allow the widget to receive DOM focus programmatically (by calling the focus method), while being removed from the default tab flow. A value of null removes the "tabIndex" attribute from the widget's bounding box.

Default: null

`useBrowserConsole`

Boolean

Defined in yui3/src/console/js/console.js:1474

Pass through to the YUI instance useBrowserConsole configuration. By default this is set to false, which will disable logging to the browser console when a Console instance is created. If the logSource is not a YUI instance, this has no effect.

Default: false

`visible`

Boolean

Inherited from Widget: yui3/src/widget/js/Widget.js:242

Boolean indicating whether or not the Widget is visible.

Default: TRUE

`width`

String | Number

Inherited from Widget but overwritten in yui3/src/console/js/console.js:1461

String with units, or number, representing the width of the Console. If a number is provided, the default unit, defined by Widget's DEF_UNIT, property is used.

Default: "300px"

Events

`destroy`

Inherited from BaseObservable: yui3/src/base/js/BaseObservable.js:163

Lifecycle event for the destroy phase, fired prior to destruction. Invoking the preventDefault method on the event object provided to subscribers will prevent destruction from proceeding. Subscribers to the "after" moment of this event, will be notified after destruction is complete (and as a result cannot prevent destruction).

Event Payload:

e EventFacade

Event object

`entry`

Defined in yui3/src/console/js/console.js:306

Transfers a received message to the print loop buffer. Default behavior defined in _defEntryFn.

Event Payload:

event EventFacade

An Event Facade object with the following attribute specific properties added: <dl> <dt>message</dt> <dd>The message data normalized into an object literal (see _normalizeMessage)</dd> </dl>

`init`

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.

`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

`reset`

Defined in yui3/src/console/js/console.js:320

Triggers the reset behavior via the default logic in _defResetFn.

Event Payload:

event EventFacade

Event Facade object

`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
