Extends

Properties

templateString

The widget's template.

multiple

Indicates that the widget's value is array-like.

baseClass

The widget's base css class.

value

The widget's value.

model

The widget's model.

itemType

The collection item type on the server. This is used to retrieve item metadata.

generateColumns

excludedColumns

List of columns those are excluded from generated columns

includedColumns

List of columns which are configured to assemble the grid.

gridSettings

The grid settings.

itemModelType

Item Model constructor. Default is epi-cms/contentediting/editors/model/CollectionEditorItemModel.

useFullWidth

Specifies that this widget should be rendered in full width.

_noDataMessage

_currentProviderHandler

id

A unique, opaque ID string that can be assigned by users or by the system. If the developer passes an ID which is known not to be unique, the specified ID is ignored and the system-generated ID is used instead.

_setIdAttr

lang

Rarely used. Overrides the default Dojo locale used to render this widget, as defined by the HTML LANG attribute. Value must be among the list of locales specified during by the Dojo bootstrap, formatted according to RFC 3066 (like en-us).

_setLangAttr

dir

Bi-directional support, as defined by the HTML DIR attribute. Either left-to-right "ltr" or right-to-left "rtl". If undefined, widgets renders in page's default direction.

_setDirAttr

textDir

Bi-directional support, the main variable which is responsible for the direction of the text. The text direction can be different than the GUI direction by using this parameter in creation of a widget.

Allowed values:

  1. "ltr"
  2. "rtl"
  3. "auto" - contextual the direction of a text defined by first strong letter.

By default is as the page direction.

class

_setClassAttr

style

HTML style attributes as cssText string or name/value hash

title

HTML title attribute.

For form widgets this specifies a tooltip to display when hovering over the widget (just like the native HTML title attribute).

For TitlePane or for when this widget is a child of a TabContainer, AccordionContainer, etc., it's used to specify the tab label, accordion pane title, etc.

tooltip

When this widget's title attribute is used to for a tab label, accordion pane title, etc., this specifies the tooltip to appear when the mouse is hovered over that text.

srcNodeRef

pointer to original DOM node

domNode

This is our visible representation of the widget! Other DOM Nodes may by assigned to other properties, usually through the template system's data-dojo-attach-point syntax, but the domNode property is the canonical "top level" node in widget UI.

containerNode

Designates where children of the source DOM node will be placed. "Children" in this case refers to both DOM nodes and widgets. For example, for myWidget:

<div data-dojo-type=myWidget>
    <b> here's a plain DOM node
    <span data-dojo-type=subWidget>and a widget</span>
    <i> and another plain DOM node </i>
</div>

containerNode would point to:

<b> here's a plain DOM node
<span data-dojo-type=subWidget>and a widget</span>
<i> and another plain DOM node </i>

In templated widgets, "containerNode" is set via a data-dojo-attach-point assignment.

containerNode must be defined for any widget that accepts innerHTML (like ContentPane or BorderContainer or even Button), and conversely is null for widgets that don't, like TextBox.

ownerDocument

The document this widget belongs to. If not specified to constructor, will default to srcNodeRef.ownerDocument, or if no sourceRef specified, then to dojo/_base/window::doc

_started

startup() has completed.

attributeMap

Deprecated. Instead of attributeMap, widget should have a _setXXXAttr attribute for each XXX attribute to be mapped to the DOM.

attributeMap sets up a "binding" between attributes (aka properties) of the widget and the widget's DOM. Changes to widget attributes listed in attributeMap will be reflected into the DOM.

For example, calling set('title', 'hello') on a TitlePane will automatically cause the TitlePane's DOM to update with the new title.

attributeMap is a hash where the key is an attribute of the widget, and the value reflects a binding to a:

  • DOM node attribute

    focus: {node: "focusNode", type: "attribute"} Maps this.focus to this.focusNode.focus

  • DOM node innerHTML

    title: { node: "titleNode", type: "innerHTML" } Maps this.title to this.titleNode.innerHTML

  • DOM node innerText

    title: { node: "titleNode", type: "innerText" } Maps this.title to this.titleNode.innerText

  • DOM node CSS class

    myClass: { node: "domNode", type: "class" } Maps this.myClass to this.domNode.className

If the value is an array, then each element in the array matches one of the formats of the above list.

There are also some shorthands for backwards compatibility:

  • string --> { node: string, type: "attribute" }, for example:
"focusNode" ---> { node: "focusNode", type: "attribute" }
  • "" --> { node: "domNode", type: "attribute" }

_blankGif

Path to a blank 1x1 image. Used by <img> nodes in templates that really get their image via CSS background-image.

_attrPairNames

focused

This widget or a widget it contains has focus, or is "active" because it was recently clicked.

_focusManager

dndType

Defines a type of widget.

templatePath

Path to template (HTML file) for this widget relative to dojo.baseUrl. Deprecated: use templateString with require([... "dojo/text!..."], ...) instead

_skipNodeCache

_earlyTemplatedStartup

A fallback to preserve the 1.0 - 1.3 behavior of children in templates having their startup called before the parent widget fires postCreate. Defaults to 'false', causing child widgets to have their .startup() called immediately before a parent widget .startup(), but always after the parent .postCreate(). Set to 'true' to re-enable to previous, arguably broken, behavior.

_attachPoints

List of widget attribute names associated with data-dojo-attach-point=... in the template, ex: ["containerNode", "labelNode"]

_attachEvents

List of connections associated with data-dojo-attach-event=... in the template

modelBindingMap

The binding map. Each key in the map must be an observable property in the model and each item in the map is a list of widget properties.

_ownedByKey

The owned handles

_itemEditor

_dialog

dialogParams

_editingItemIndex

required

User is required to enter data into this field.

missingMessage

Message which is displayed when required is true and value is empty.

_valueValidationTooltip

The validation tooltip.

cssStateNodes

List of sub-nodes within the widget that need CSS classes applied on mouse hover/press and focus

Each entry in the hash is a an attachpoint names (like "upArrowButton") mapped to a CSS class names (like "dijitUpArrowButton"). Example:

{
    "upArrowButton": "dijitUpArrowButton",
    "downArrowButton": "dijitDownArrowButton"
}

The above will set the CSS class dijitUpArrowButton to the this.upArrowButton DOMNode when it

is hovered, etc.

hovering

True if cursor is over this widget

active

True if mouse was pressed while over this widget, and hasn't been released yet

isShowingChildDialog

Indicates whether a child dialog window is currently being displayed.

_openedChildDialog

A reference to the currently open child dialog

_waitingForFocus

A flag indicating that the child dialog has been closed and we're waiting for a focus on this widget

value

Optional. If provided, attr() operates as a setter. If omitted, the current value of the named property is returned.

Object optional

protected method getDescendants()

Returns all the widgets contained by this, i.e., all widgets underneath this.containerNode. This method should generally be avoided as it returns widgets declared in templates, which are supposed to be internal/hidden, but it's left here for back-compat reasons.

protected method _onShow()

Internal method called when this widget is made visible. See onShow for details.

protected method onShow()

Called when this widget becomes the selected pane in a dijit/layout/TabContainer, dijit/layout/StackContainer, dijit/layout/AccordionContainer, etc.

  • otherwise, replace srcNodeRef with my generated DOM tree
DOMNode|String optional

protected method _applyAttributes()

Step during widget creation to copy widget attributes to the DOM according to attributeMap and _setXXXAttr objects, and also to call custom _setXXXAttr() methods.

Skips over blank/false attribute values, unless they were explicitly specified as parameters to the widget, since those are the default anyway, and setting tabIndex="" is different than not setting tabIndex at all.

For backwards-compatibility reasons attributeMap overrides _setXXXAttr when _setXXXAttr is a hash/string/array, but _setXXXAttr as a functions override attributeMap.
