Widget | Object
The Widget instance, or configuration
object for the Widget to be added as a child. The configuration object
for the child can include a childType
property, which is either
a constructor function or a string which names a constructor function on the
Y instance (e.g. "Tab" would refer to Y.Tab) (childType
used to be
named type
, support for which has been deprecated, but is still
maintained for backward compatibility. childType
takes precedence
over type

(Optional.) Number representing the position at which the child should be inserted.
addAttr
name
config
lazy
Adds an attribute with the provided configuration to the host object.
The config argument object supports the following properties:
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.
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)
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.
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.
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.
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.

expand
Expands the tree
fire
type
arguments
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.
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.
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.
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.
focus
Causes the Widget to receive the focus by setting the "focused" attribute to "true".
get
name
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.
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")
)
getAttrs

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.
args
String*
multiple
0..n strings which should be concatenated, using the default separator defined by ClassNameManager, to create the class name
getDefaultLocale
Returns the default locale for the widget (the locale value defined by the widget class, or provided by the user during construction).

Returns the Widget's next sibling.
circular
Boolean
Boolean indicating if the parent's first child should be returned if the child has no next sibling.
on
type
fn
[context]
[arg*]
Subscribe a callback function to a custom event fired by this object or from an object that bubbles its events to this object.
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, or pass an array of event names as the first argument to subscribe to all listed events with the same callback.
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.
once
type
fn
[context]
[arg*]
Listen to a custom event hosted by this object one time.
This is the equivalent to on
except the
listener is immediatelly detached when it is executed.
onceAfter
type
fn
[context]
[arg*]
Listen to a custom event hosted by this object one time.
This is the equivalent to after
except the
listener is immediatelly detached when it is executed.
parseType
type
[pre=this._yuievt.config.prefix]
Takes the type parameter passed to 'on' and parses out the various pieces that could be included in the type. If the event type is passed without a prefix, it will be expanded to include the prefix one is supplied or the event target is configured with a default prefix.
path
cfg
Returns breadcrumbs path of labels from root of the tree to this node (inclusive)
cfg
Object
An object literal with the following properties:
labelAttr
reverse
previous
circular
Returns the Widget's previous sibling.
circular
Boolean
Boolean indicating if the parent's last child should be returned if the child has no previous sibling.
publish
type
opts
Creates a new custom event of the specified type. If a custom event by that name already exists, it will not be re-created. In either case the custom event is returned.
type
String
the type, or name of the event
opts
Object
optional config params. Valid properties are:
remove
index
Removes the Widget from its parent. Optionally, can remove a child by specifying its index.
index
Number
(Optional.) Number representing the index of the child to be removed.
removeAll
Removes all of the children from the Widget.
removeAttr
name
Removes an attribute from the host object
name
String
The name of the attribute to be removed.
render
parentNode
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.
parentNode
Object | String
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.
renderer
Creates DOM (or manipulates DOM for progressive enhancement) This method is invoked by render() and is not chained automatically for the class hierarchy (unlike initializer, destructor) so it should be chained manually for subclasses if required.
renderUI
Renders TreeNode
reset
name
Resets the attribute (or all attributes) to its initial value, as long as the attribute is not readOnly, or writeOnce.
name
String
Optional. The name of the attribute to reset. If omitted, all attributes are reset.
selectAll
Selects all children.
selectChild
i
Selects the child at the given index (zero-based).
i
Number
the index of the child to be selected
set
name
value
Sets the value of an attribute.
name
String
The name of the attribute. If the
current value of the attribute is an Object, dot notation can be used
to set the value of a property within the object (e.g. set("x.y.z", 5)
).
value
Any
The value to set the attribute to.
setAttrs
attrs
Sets multiple attribute values.
attrs
Object
An object with attributes name/value pairs.
show
Shows the Widget by setting the "visible" attribute to "true".
subscribe
subscribe to an event
syncUI
Refreshes the rendered UI, based on Widget State
This method is not called by framework and is not chained automatically for the class hierarchy.
toggleCheckedState
Toggles checked / unchecked state of the node
toggleState
Toggle current expaned/collapsed tree state
toString
Generic toString implementation for all widgets.
unsubscribe
detach a listener
unsubscribeAll
type
Removes all listeners from the specified event. If the event type is not specified, all listeners from all hosted custom events will be removed.
type
String
The type, or name of the event
_allowAdHocAttrs
This property controls whether or not instances of this class should allow users to add ad-hoc attributes through the constructor configuration hash.
AdHoc attributes are attributes which are not defined by the class, and are not handled by the MyClass.NONATTRS_CFG
Default: undefined (false)
_childrenContainer
By default WidgetParent will render it's children to the parent's content box.
If the children need to be rendered somewhere else, the _childrenContainer property can be set to the Node which the children should be rendered to. This property should be set before the _renderChildren method is invoked, ideally in your renderUI method, as soon as you create the element to be rendered to.
_renderFromMarkup
Flag to determine if the tree is being rendered from markup or not
_UI_ATTRS
The lists of UI attributes to bind and sync for widget's _bindUI and _syncUI implementations
CONTENT_TEMPLATE
Property defining the markup template for content box. If your Widget doesn't need the dual boundingBox/contentBox structure, set CONTENT_TEMPLATE to null, and contentBox and boundingBox will both point to the same Node.
DEF_PARENT_NODE
Default node to render the bounding box to. If not set, will default to the current document body.
ROOT_TYPE
Constructor reference used to determine the root of a Widget-based object tree.
Currently used to control the behavior of the root
attribute so that recursing up the object heirarchy can be constrained
to a specific type of Widget. Widget authors should set this property
to the constructor function for a given Widget implementation.
boundingBox
The outermost DOM node for the Widget, used for sizing and positioning of a Widget as well as a containing element for any decorator elements used for skinning.
checked
Signifies current "checked" state. Accepts either unchecked
, halfchecked
, checked
.
or correspondingly 10, 20, 30. Getter returns only numeric value.
clabel
Canonical label for the node. You can set it to anything you like and use later with your external tools.
contentBox
A DOM node that is a direct descendant of a Widget's bounding box that houses its content.
depth
Number representing the depth of this Widget relative to the root Widget in the object heirarchy.
Default: -1
destroyed
Flag indicating whether or not this object has been through the destroy lifecycle phase.
Default: false
disabled
Boolean indicating if the Widget should be disabled. The disabled implementation is left to the specific classes extending widget.
Default: false
focused
Boolean indicating if the Widget, or one of its descendants, has focus.
Default: false
height
String with units, or number, representing the height of the Widget. If a number is provided, the default unit, defined by the Widgets DEF_UNIT, property is used.
Default: EMPTY_STR
initialized
Flag indicating whether or not this object has been through the init lifecycle phase.
Default: false
isLeaf
Signifies whether this node is a leaf node. Nodes with loadOnDemand set to true are not considered leafs.
loadOnDemand
Whether children of this node can be loaded on demand (when this tree node is expanded, for example). Use with gallery-yui3treeview-ng-datasource.
locale
The default locale for the widget. NOTE: Using get/set on the "strings" attribute will return/set strings for this locale.
Default: "en"
multiple
Boolean indicating if multiple children can be selected at
once. Whether or not multiple selection is enabled is always delegated
to the value of the multiple
attribute of the root widget
in the object hierarchy.
Default: false
nodeId
Signifies id of this node. You can set it to anything you like and use later with your external tools.
render
Whether or not to render the widget automatically after init, and optionally, to which parent node.
rendered
Flag indicating whether or not this Widget has been through the render lifecycle phase.
Default: false
root
Returns the root Widget in the object hierarchy. If the ROOT_TYPE property is set, the search for the root Widget will be constrained to parent Widgets of the specified type.
selected
Number indicating if the Widget is selected. Possible values are:
Default: 0
selection
Returns the currently selected child Widget. If the
mulitple
attribte is set to true
will
return an Y.ArrayList instance containing the currently selected
children. If no children are selected, will return null.
srcNode
The DOM node to parse for configuration values, passed to the Widget's HTML_PARSER definition
tabIndex
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
addChild
Fires when a Widget is add as a child. The event object will have a 'child' property that returns a reference to the child Widget, as well as an 'index' property that returns a reference to the index specified when the add() method was called.
Subscribers to the "on" moment of this event, will be notified before a child is added.
Subscribers to the "after" moment of this event, will be notified after a child is added.
e
EventFacade
The Event Facade
destroy
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).
e
EventFacade
Event object
init
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).
e
EventFacade
Event object, with a cfg property which refers to the configuration object passed to the constructor.
removeChild
Fires when a child Widget is removed. The event object will have a 'child' property that returns a reference to the child Widget, as well as an 'index' property that returns a reference child's ordinal position.
Subscribers to the "on" moment of this event, will be notified before a child is removed.
Subscribers to the "after" moment of this event, will be notified after a child is removed.
e
EventFacade
The Event Facade
widget:contentUpdate
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).
e
EventFacade
The Event Facade
widget:render
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.
