Methods

`addAttr`

(

name
config
lazy

)

Object chainable

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

Adds an attribute with the provided configuration to the host object.

The config argument object supports the following properties:

value <Any>

The initial value to set on the attribute

valueFn <Function | String>

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.

readOnly <boolean>

Whether or not the attribute is read only. Attributes having readOnly set to true cannot be modified by invoking the set method.

writeOnce <boolean> or <string>

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)

setter <Function | String>

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 Attribute.INVALID_VALUE, 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.

getter <Function | String>

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.

validator <Function | String>

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.

lazyAdd <boolean>

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 addAttrs method.

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
lazy

)

Object chainable

Inherited from AttributeCore: attribute/js/AttributeCore.js:823

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 addAttr.

Returns:

Object:

A reference to the host object.

`addTarget`

(

)

chainable

Inherited from EventTarget: event-custom/js/event-facade.js:496

Registers another EventTarget as a bubble target. Bubble order is determined by the order registered. Multiple targets can be specified.

`after`

(

type
fn
[context]
[arg*]

)

EventHandle

Inherited from EventTarget: event-custom/js/event-target.js:812

Subscribe to a custom event hosted by this object. The supplied callback will execute after any listeners add via the subscribe method, and after the default function, if configured for the event, has executed.

Parameters:

type String

The name of the event
fn Function

The callback to execute in response to the event
[context] Object optional

Override this object in callback
[arg*] Any optional

0..n additional arguments to supply to the subscriber

`align`

(

[node]
[points]

)

chainable

Inherited from WidgetPositionAlign: widget-position-align/js/Widget-PositionAlign.js:278

Aligns this widget to the provided Node (or viewport) using the provided points. This method can be invoked with no arguments which will cause the widget's current align Attribute value to be synced to the DOM.

Parameters:

[node] Node | String | Null optional

A reference (or selector String) for the Node which with the widget is to be aligned. If null is passed in, the widget will be aligned with the viewport.
[points] Array2 optional

A two item array specifying the points on the widget and Node/viewport which will to be aligned. The first entry is the point on the widget, and the second entry is the point on the Node/viewport. Valid point references are defined as static constants on the WidgetPositionAlign extension.

Example:

Aligning to the top-left corner of the <body>:

myWidget.align('body',
    [Y.WidgetPositionAlign.TL, Y.WidgetPositionAlign.TR]);

`ancestor`

`before`

()

Inherited from EventTarget: event-custom/js/event-target.js:849

Executes the callback before a DOM event, custom event or method. If the first argument is a function, it is assumed the target is a method. For DOM and custom events, this is an alias for Y.on.

Subscribers to the destroy event can invoke preventDefault on the event object, to prevent destruction from proceeding.

Parameters:

destroyAllNodes Boolean

If true, all nodes contained within the Widget are removed and destroyed. Defaults to false due to potentially high run-time cost.

Returns:

Widget:

A reference to this object

`detach`

(

type
fn
context

)

EventTarget

Inherited from EventTarget: event-custom/js/event-target.js:356

Detach one or more listeners the from the specified event

Parameters:

type String | Object

Either the handle to the subscriber or the type of event. If the type is not specified, it will attempt to remove the listener from all hosted events.
fn Function

The subscribed function to unsubscribe, if not supplied, all subscribers will be removed.
context Object

The custom object passed to subscribe. This is optional, but if supplied will be used to disambiguate multiple listeners that are the same (e.g., you subscribe many object using a function that lives on the prototype)

Returns:

EventTarget:

`detachAll`

(

type

)

Inherited from EventTarget: event-custom/js/event-target.js:479

Removes all listeners from the specified event. If the event type is not specified, all listeners from all hosted custom events will be removed.

Parameters:

type String

The type, or name of the event

`disable`

() chainable

Inherited from Widget: widget/js/Widget.js:688

Set the Widget's "disabled" attribute to "true".

`enable`

() chainable

Inherited from Widget: widget/js/Widget.js:679

Set the Widget's "disabled" attribute to "false".

`fire`

(

type
arguments

)

Boolean

Inherited from EventTarget: 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.

`focus`

() chainable

Inherited from Widget: widget/js/Widget.js:659

Causes the Widget to receive the focus by setting the "focused" attribute to "true".

`get`

(

name

)

Any

Inherited from AttributeCore: attribute/js/AttributeCore.js:331

Returns the current value of the attribute. If the attribute has been configured with a 'getter' function, this method will delegate to the 'getter' to obtain the value of the attribute.

Parameters:

name String

The name of the attribute. If the value of the attribute is an Object, dot notation can be used to obtain the value of a property of the object (e.g. get("x.y.z"))

Returns:

Any:

The value of the attribute

`getAttrs`

(

attrs

)

Object

Inherited from AttributeCore: attribute/js/AttributeCore.js:780

Gets multiple attribute values.

Parameters:

attrs String[] | Boolean

Optional. An array of attribute names. If omitted, all attribute values are returned. If set to true, all attributes modified from their initial values are returned.

Returns:

Object:

Inherited from Widget but overwritten in widget/js/Widget.js:309

Generate a standard prefixed classname for the Widget, prefixed by the default prefix defined by the Y.config.classNamePrefix attribute used by ClassNameManager and Widget.NAME.toLowerCase() (e.g. "yui-widget-xxxxx-yyyyy", based on default values for the prefix and widget class name).

The instance based version of this method can be used to generate standard prefixed classnames, based on the instances NAME, as opposed to Widget.NAME. This method should be used when you need to use a constant class name across different types instances.

Parameters:

args String* multiple

0..n strings which should be concatenated, using the default separator defined by ClassNameManager, to create the class name

`getEvent`

(

type
prefixed

prefixed String

if true, the type is prefixed already

Returns:

CustomEvent:

the custom event or null

`getSkinName`

(

[skinPrefix]

)

String

Inherited from Widget: widget/js/WidgetSkin.js:12

Returns the name of the skin that's currently applied to the widget.

Searches up the Widget's ancestor axis for, by default, a class yui3-skin-(name), and returns the (name) portion. Otherwise, returns null.

This is only really useful after the widget's DOM structure is in the document, either by render or by progressive enhancement.

Parameters:

[skinPrefix] String optional
The prefix which the implementation uses for the skin ("yui3-skin-" is the default).

NOTE: skinPrefix will be used as part of a regular expression:
```
new RegExp('\\b' + skinPrefix + '(\\S+)')
```
Although an unlikely use case, literal characters which may result in an invalid regular expression should be escaped.

Returns:

String:

The name of the skin, or null, if a matching skin class is not found.

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:

readOnly;
writeOnce;
broadcast; and
getter.

Note: New attributes cannot be added using this interface. New attributes must be added using addAttr, or an appropriate manner for a class which utilises Attributes (e.g. the ATTRS property in Base).

Parameters:

`on`

(

type
fn
[context]
[arg*]

)

EventHandle

Inherited from EventTarget: 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
[context] Object optional

Override this object in callback
[arg*] Any optional

0..n additional arguments to supply to the subscriber

Establishes the initial DOM for the widget. Invoking this method will lead to the creating of all DOM elements for the widget (or the manipulation of existing DOM elements for the progressive enhancement use case).

This method should only be invoked once for an initialized widget.

It delegates to the widget specific renderer method to do the actual work.

Parameters:

Optional. The Node under which the Widget is to be rendered. This can be a Node instance or a CSS selector 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.

`resultHighlighter`

Function | Null

Inherited from AutoCompleteBase: autocomplete/js/autocomplete-base.js:1167

Function which will be used to highlight results. If provided, this function will be called with two arguments after results have been received and filtered: the query and an array of filtered result objects. The highlighter is expected to return an array of highlighted result text in the form of HTML strings.

See the documentation for the results event for a list of the properties available on each result object.

If no source is set, the highlighter will not be called.

Fires event `resultHighlighterChange`

Fires when the value for the configuration attribute resultHighlighter is changed. You can listen for the event using the on method if you wish to be notified before the attribute's value has changed, or using the after method if you wish to be notified after the attribute's value has changed.

Parameters:

e EventFacade
An Event Facade object with the following attribute-specific properties added:
- prevVal Any
  The value of the attribute, prior to it being set.
- newVal Any
  The value the attribute is to be set to.
- attrName String
  The name of the attribute being set.

  If setting a property within the attribute's value, the name of the sub-attribute property being set.

`resultListLocator`

Function | String | Null

Inherited from AutoCompleteBase: autocomplete/js/autocomplete-base.js:1187

Locator that should be used to extract an array of results from a non-array response.

By default, no locator is applied, and all responses are assumed to be arrays by default. If all responses are already arrays, you don't need to define a locator.

The locator may be either a function (which will receive the raw response as an argument and must return an array) or a string representing an object path, such as "foo.bar.baz" (which would return the value of result.foo.bar.baz if the response is an object).

While resultListLocator may be set to either a function or a string, it will always be returned as a function that accepts a response argument and returns an array.

Fires event `resultListLocatorChange`

Fires when the value for the configuration attribute resultListLocator is changed. You can listen for the event using the on method if you wish to be notified before the attribute's value has changed, or using the after method if you wish to be notified after the attribute's value has changed.

Parameters:

e EventFacade
An Event Facade object with the following attribute-specific properties added:
- prevVal Any
  The value of the attribute, prior to it being set.
- newVal Any
  The value the attribute is to be set to.
- attrName String
  The name of the attribute being set.
- subAttrName String
  If setting a property within the attribute's value, the name of the sub-attribute property being set.

`results`

Array readonly

Inherited from AutoCompleteBase: autocomplete/js/autocomplete-base.js:1212

Current results, or an empty array if there are no results.

Default: []

Fires event `resultsChange`

Fires when the value for the configuration attribute results is changed. You can listen for the event using the on method if you wish to be notified before the attribute's value has changed, or using the after method if you wish to be notified after the attribute's value has changed.

Parameters:

e EventFacade
An Event Facade object with the following attribute-specific properties added:
- prevVal Any
  The value of the attribute, prior to it being set.

  The value the attribute is to be set to.
- attrName String
  The name of the attribute being set.
- subAttrName String
  If setting a property within the attribute's value, the name of the sub-attribute property being set.

`resultTextLocator`

Function | String | Null

Inherited from AutoCompleteBase: autocomplete/js/autocomplete-base.js:1225

Locator that should be used to extract a plain text string from a non-string result item. The resulting text value will typically be the value that ends up being inserted into an input field or textarea when the user of an autocomplete implementation selects a result.

By default, no locator is applied, and all results are assumed to be plain text strings. If all results are already plain text strings, you don't need to define a locator.

The locator may be either a function (which will receive the raw result as an argument and must return a string) or a string representing an object path, such as "foo.bar.baz" (which would return the value of result.foo.bar.baz if the result is an object).

While resultTextLocator may be set to either a function or a string, it will always be returned as a function that accepts a result argument and returns a string.

Fires event `resultTextLocatorChange`

Fires when the value for the configuration attribute resultTextLocator is changed. You can listen for the event using the on method if you wish to be notified before the attribute's value has changed, or using the after method if you wish to be notified after the attribute's value has changed.

Parameters:

e EventFacade

- attrName String
  The name of the attribute being set.
- subAttrName String
  If setting a property within the attribute's value, the name of the sub-attribute property being set.

`source`

Inherited from AutoCompleteBase: autocomplete/js/autocomplete-base.js:1252

Source for autocomplete results. The following source types are supported:

Array

The full array will be provided to any configured filters for each query. This is an easy way to create a fully client-side autocomplete implementation.

<p>
Example: <code>[&#39;first result&#39;, &#39;second result&#39;, &#39;etc&#39;]</code>
</p>

DataSource

A DataSource instance or other object that provides a DataSource-like sendRequest method. See the DataSource documentation for details.

Function

A function source will be called with the current query and a callback function as parameters, and should either return an array of results (for synchronous operation) or return nothing and pass an array of results to the provided callback (for asynchronous operation).

<p>
Example (synchronous):
</p>

<pre>
function (query) {
    return [&#39;foo&#39;, &#39;bar&#39;];
}
</pre>

<p>
Example (async):
</p>

<pre>
function (query, callback) {
    callback([&#39;foo&#39;, &#39;bar&#39;]);
}
</pre>

Object

An object will be treated as a query hashmap. If a property on the object matches the current query, the value of that property will be used as the response.

<p>
The response is assumed to be an array of results by default. If the
response is not an array, provide a <code>resultListLocator</code> to
process the response and return an array.
</p>

<p>
Example: <code>{foo: [&#39;foo result 1&#39;, &#39;foo result 2&#39;], bar: [&#39;bar result&#39;]}</code>
</p>

If the optional autocomplete-sources module is loaded, then the following additional source types will be supported as well:

<select> Node

You may provide a YUI Node instance wrapping a <select> element, and the options in the list will be used as results. You will also need to specify a resultTextLocator of 'text' or 'value', depending on what you want to use as the text of the result. Each result will be an object with the following properties:

html (String): HTML content of the <option> element.
index (Number): Index of the <option> element in the list.
node (Y.Node): Node instance referring to the original <option> element.
selected (Boolean): Whether or not this item is currently selected in the <select> list.
text (String): Text content of the <option> element.
value (String): Value of the <option> element.

String (JSONP URL)

If a URL with a {callback} placeholder is provided, it will be used to make a JSONP request. The {query} placeholder will be replaced with the current query, and the {callback} placeholder will be replaced with an internally-generated JSONP callback name. Both placeholders must appear in the URL, or the request will fail. An optional {maxResults} placeholder may also be provided, and will be replaced with the value of the maxResults attribute (or 1000 if the maxResults attribute is 0 or less).

<p>
The response is assumed to be an array of results by default. If the
response is not an array, provide a <code>resultListLocator</code> to process the
response and return an array.
</p>

<p>
<strong>The <code>jsonp</code> module must be loaded in order for
JSONP URL sources to work.</strong> If the <code>jsonp</code> module
is not already loaded, it will be loaded on demand if possible.
</p>

<p>
Example: <code>&#39;http://example.com/search?q={query}&amp;callback={callback}&#39;</code>
</p>

String (XHR URL)

If a URL without a {callback} placeholder is provided, it will be used to make a same-origin XHR request. The {query} placeholder will be replaced with the current query. An optional {maxResults} placeholder may also be provided, and will be replaced with the value of the maxResults attribute (or 1000 if the maxResults attribute is 0 or less).

<p>
The response is assumed to be a JSON array of results by default. If the
response is a JSON object and not an array, provide a
<code>resultListLocator</code> to process the response and return an array. If the
response is in some form other than JSON, you will need to use a custom
DataSource instance as the source.
</p>

<p>
<strong>The <code>io-base</code> and <code>json-parse</code> modules
must be loaded in order for XHR URL sources to work.</strong> If
these modules are not already loaded, they will be loaded on demand
if possible.
</p>

<p>
Example: <code>&#39;http://example.com/search?q={query}&#39;</code>
</p>

String (YQL query)

If a YQL query is provided, it will be used to make a YQL request. The {query} placeholder will be replaced with the current autocomplete query. This placeholder must appear in the YQL query, or the request will fail. An optional {maxResults} placeholder may also be provided, and will be replaced with the value of the maxResults attribute (or 1000 if the maxResults attribute is 0 or less).

<p>
<strong>The <code>yql</code> module must be loaded in order for YQL
sources to work.</strong> If the <code>yql</code> module is not
already loaded, it will be loaded on demand if possible.
</p>

<p>
Example: <code>&#39;select * from search.suggest where query=&quot;{query}&quot;&#39;</code>
</p>

As an alternative to providing a source, you could simply listen for query events and handle them any way you see fit. Providing a source is optional, but will usually be simpler.

Event Payload:

e EventFacade

Event object

`init`

Inherited from BaseObservable: 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.

`query`

Inherited from AutoCompleteBase: autocomplete/js/autocomplete-base.js:116

Fires when the contents of the input field have changed and the input value meets the criteria necessary to generate an autocomplete query.

Event Payload:

inputValue String

Full contents of the text input field or textarea that generated the query.
query String

AutoComplete query. This is the string that will be used to request completion results. It may or may not be the same as inputValue.
src String

Source of the event.

`render`

Inherited from Widget: 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).

  Formatted result HTML suitable for display to the user. If no custom formatter is set, this will be an HTML-escaped version of the string in the text property.
- [highlighted] String optional
  
  Highlighted (but not formatted) result text. This property will only be set if a highlighter is in use.
- raw Any
  
  Raw, unformatted result in whatever form it was provided by the source.
- text String
  
  Plain text version of the result, suitable for being inserted into the value of a text input field or textarea when the result is selected by a user. This value is not HTML-escaped and should not be inserted into the page using innerHTML or Node#setContent().
