Methods

_create()

widgetNg/universalFilter/universalFilterPackage.js, line 85

_createExpressionNode(args)

Type Definitions

AddStatusListenerParamobject

Properties:
Name Type Description
listener function | bcdui.core.StatusListener A function or StatusListener object representing the listener action.
status bcdui.core.Status The status it should listen to. If it is missing the listener is executed on all status transitions, otherwise it is executed when the status is set to the specified status.

BcdScrollToParamOptionsobject

Properties:
Name Type Argument Default Description
snapTo string <optional>
 beginning snapTo can have following values: 'beginning': put the scrollTo-target on the top of container.

chainDef()

util/typedefs.js, line 100
Defines the transformation steps of a transformation chain, like bcdui.core.ModelWrapper or bcdui.core.Renderer.
Can be: url | function | Array<(url|function)> | bcdui.core.DataProvider
You can provide
  • A single DataProvider, holding a chain definition following XML Schema 'chain-1.0.0.xsd'. Or
  • A single string holding the url of an xslt document (*.xslt) or a doT.js file (*.dott). Or
  • A javascript transformator function, representing a transformation. Such a function gets two parameters, data, like a DOM or JSON, whatever DataProvider.getData() returns and a parameter object, which maps parameter names to the actual parameters. It can return a new data object or modify the one, which was its input. It it does not return anything, its (modified) input doc is used as return default. Or
  • An array of such strings and functions in the order they are to be executed. In this case, the output of the n-th transformation becomes the input of n+1.
Example

These are all valid values for a chainDef:

"myStylesheet.xslt"                         // An url pointing to an *.xslt or a *.dott file
["myTrans.dott", jsTrans]                   // An array of transformators, can be urls (doT.js or xslt) and js functions
new bcdui.core.StaticModel(...)             // A DataProvider subclass, providing an xml chain definition according to chain-1.0.0.xsd
function jsTrans(doc, params) {             // A js function, expecting a data object (DOM or JSON)
  var n = doc.getElementById('someId');
  n.setAttribute('someAttr', params.newValue);
}

ExecuteParamobject

Properties:
Name Type Argument Description
fn function <optional>
 A function called once when the object becomes ready again. Called immediately if we are already ready && shouldRefresh==false
partialHtmlTargets String <optional>

i18nTokenstring

A string value which is either taken as-is or an i18n key-marker as proposed by
We use xE0FF prefix to separate an i18n token from a plain string. This marker is available via bcdui.i18n.TAG For i18n keys, see messages.xml or binding set bcd_i18n
Example
caption = "data"       // Treats value 'data' literal
caption = "\uE0FFdata" // Treats value 'data' as an i18n-key

integerNumber

Note: You can also build quite complex XPaths and refer to further registered models via '$myModelId' in predicates, see second example.

OnChangeParamobject

Adds a data listener to the DataProvider which can be triggered when the data (XML document) is changed. The listener offers two options: It can either be fired on any change or on a change in a specific XPath result.

targetHtmlRefstring HtmlElement jQuery

Any reference to an existing HTML element: Can be a DOM element, a jQuery object, a css selector or a plain id of an element. The referenced element *must* be attached to html document unless the reference itself is a DOM element.
If jQuery returns a list with multiple matches, the first member is used. These are all valid examples:
Example
document.getElementById("myId").firstChild      // Any plain DOM element
jQuery('#myElementId') • jQuery('ul li:first')  // A jQuery list, first one is used
'ul li:first'                                   // A css selector, first match is used
'myElementId'                                   // Treated as an element id if its just letters (id without #)

writableModelXPathstring

Provide an XPath, which can be used to append nodes to. In most cases the path will be created if it does not exist, reusing as much as possible. See bcdui.core.createElementWithPrototype Start the XPath with $dataProviderId, make sure that you create this bcdui.core.DataProvider with an explicit id. Default for this is $guiStatus, which is always auto-registered. Be aware that the model's data changes, if it is a ModelWrapper, the next execute() would of course overwrite the change.
You can also build complex XPaths and refer to further models via '$dataProviderId' in predicates.
Example
/guiStatus:Status/guiStatus:MyNode                                               // Default is $guiStatus
$modelId/f:Filter/f:Filters[$guiStatus/guiStatus:Status/guiStatus:MyNodes/@attr] // A string with a more complex XPath, using multiple models

xPathstring

Provide an XPath, which can be used to use nodes from, can point to an attribute or a full subtree.
Note: must not contain model references.
Example
/guiStatus:Status/guiStatus:MyNode                                     // A string with a simple XPath
