Item Index

Methods

_getAttrCfg

(
  • name
)
Object protected

Returns an object with the configuration properties (and value) for the given attribute. If attrName is not provided, returns the configuration properties for all attributes.

Parameters:

  • name String

    Optional. The attribute name. If not provided, the method will return the configuration for all attributes.

Returns:

Object:

The configuration properties for the given attribute, or all attributes.

modifyAttr

(
  • name
  • config
)

Updates the configuration of an attribute which has already been added.

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:

  • 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.

removeAttr

(
  • name
)

Removes an attribute from the host object

Parameters:

  • name String

    The name of the attribute to be removed.

reset

(
  • name
)
Object chainable

Resets the attribute (or all attributes) to its initial value, as long as the attribute is not readOnly, or writeOnce.

Parameters:

  • name String

    Optional. The name of the attribute to reset. If omitted, all attributes are reset.

Returns:

Object:

A reference to the host object.
