Constructors

  • Parameters

    • widget: Widget<HTMLElement>
    • currentTarget: object

    Returns Binder

Properties

$currentTarget?: object
$oid: number = 0

The object ID. Each object has its own unique $oid. It is mainly used for debugging purpose.

Trick: you can test if a JavaScript object is a ZK object by examining this property, such as `if (o.$oid) alert('o is a ZK object');`

Notice: zk.Class extends from zk.Object (so a class also has $oid)

$view?: Widget<HTMLElement>
$oid: any

Accessors

  • get $class(): typeof ZKObject
  • The class that this object belongs to.

    Returns typeof ZKObject

Methods

  • Parameters

    • cmd: string
    • Optional args: unknown[]

    Returns void

  • The constructor.

    Parameters

    • Optional props: Record<string, unknown> | (() => void)

    Returns void

    Default Value

    it does nothing so the subclass needs not to copy back
    (also harmless to call back).

    See

    afterInit

    Deprecated

    as of 10.0 released. Using ES6 constructor instead.

  • Determines if this object is an instance of the class represented by the specified Class parameter. Example:

    if (obj.$instanceof(zul.wgt.Label, zul.wgt.Image)) {
    }

    Parameters

    • Rest ...klass: any[]

      the Class object to be checked. Any number of arguments can be specified.

    Returns boolean

    true if this object is an instance of the class

  • Invokes a method defined in the superclass with any number of arguments. It is like Function's call() that takes any number of arguments.

    Example: ```ts multiply: function (n) { return this.$super('multiply', n + 2); } ```

    Type Parameters

    • M extends "$init" | "$supers" | "_$ais" | "_$supers" | "_$proxies" | "_$super" | "_importantEvts" | "afterCreated_" | "afterInit" | "$class" | "get$Class" | "$oid" | "$instanceof" | "$super" | "proxy" | "destroy" | "after" | "_aftercmd" | "_lastcmd" | "$view" | "$currentTarget" | "unAfter" | "command" | "$doAfterCommand" | "_cookies" | "_mediaQueryLists" | "_processingAfterCommand" | "_toDoUnAftercmd" | "globalCommand" | "upload"

    • F extends any

    Parameters

    • mtd: M

      the method name to invoke

    • Rest ...args: Parameters<F>

      any number of arguments

    Returns ReturnType<F>

    the object being returned by the method of the superclass.

  • Invokes a method defined in the superclass with any number of arguments. It is like Function's call() that takes any number of arguments.

    It is similar to ZKObject.$super, but this method works even if the superclass calls back the same member method. In short, it is tedious but safer.

    Example: ```ts foo.MyClass = zk.$extends(foo.MySuper, { multiply: function (n) { return this.$super(foo.MyClass, 'multiply', n + 2); } ```

    Notice that the class specified in the first argument is not the super class having the method. Rather, it is the class that invokes this method.

    Type Parameters

    • M extends "$init" | "$supers" | "_$ais" | "_$supers" | "_$proxies" | "_$super" | "_importantEvts" | "afterCreated_" | "afterInit" | "$class" | "get$Class" | "$oid" | "$instanceof" | "$super" | "proxy" | "destroy" | "after" | "_aftercmd" | "_lastcmd" | "$view" | "$currentTarget" | "unAfter" | "command" | "$doAfterCommand" | "_cookies" | "_mediaQueryLists" | "_processingAfterCommand" | "_toDoUnAftercmd" | "globalCommand" | "upload"

    • F extends any

    Parameters

    • klass: typeof ZKObject

      the class that invokes this method.

    • mtd: M

      the method name to invoke

    • Rest ...args: Parameters<F>

      any number of arguments

    Returns ReturnType<F>

    the object being returned by the method of the superclass.

    See

    zk.Object.$supers

    Since

    5.0.2

  • Invokes a method defined in the superclass with an array of arguments. It is like Function's apply() that takes an array of arguments.

    Example: ```ts multiply: function () { return this.$supers('multiply', arguments); } ```

    Type Parameters

    • M extends "$init" | "$supers" | "_$ais" | "_$supers" | "_$proxies" | "_$super" | "_importantEvts" | "afterCreated_" | "afterInit" | "$class" | "get$Class" | "$oid" | "$instanceof" | "$super" | "proxy" | "destroy" | "after" | "_aftercmd" | "_lastcmd" | "$view" | "$currentTarget" | "unAfter" | "command" | "$doAfterCommand" | "_cookies" | "_mediaQueryLists" | "_processingAfterCommand" | "_toDoUnAftercmd" | "globalCommand" | "upload"

    • F extends any

    Parameters

    • name: M

      the method name to invoke

    • args: Parameters<F>

      an array of arguments. In most case, you just pass arguments (the built-in variable).

    Returns ReturnType<F>

    the object being returned by the method of the superclass.

    5.0.2

  • Registers a callback after some command executed.

    Parameters

    • cmd: string | CallableFunction

      the name of the command

    • fn: CallableFunction

      the function to execute

    Returns this

  • Specifies a function that shall be called after the object is initialized, i.e., after zk.Object.$init is called. This method can be called only during the execution of zk.Object.$init.

    It is an advance feature that is used to allow a base class to do something that needs to wait for all deriving classes have been initialized.

    Invocation Sequence:

    • The most derived class's $init (subclass)
    • The based class's $init (if the derived class's $init invokes this.$supers('$init', arguments))
    • The first function, if any, be added with afterInit, then the second (in the same order that afterInit was called)...

    Parameters

    • func: CallableFunction

      the function to register for execution later

    Returns void

    See

    zk.Object.$init

    Deprecated

    as of 10.0 released. Using afterCreated_ instead.

  • Post a command to the binder

    Parameters

    • cmd: string

      the name of the command

    • Optional args: Record<string, unknown>

      the arguments for this command. (the value should be json type)

    • Optional opts: EventOptions

      a map of options to zk.Event, if any.

    • Optional timeout: number

      the time (milliseconds) to wait before sending the request.

    Returns this

  • Destroy this binder.

    Returns void

  • Type Parameters

    Returns T

    the class of the subsclass which extends from zk.Class.

    Since

    10.0.0

  • Post a global command from the binder.

    Parameters

    • cmd: string

      the name of the command

    • Optional args: Record<string, unknown>

      the arguments for this command. (the value should be json type)

    • Optional opts: EventOptions

      a map of options to zk.Event, if any.

    • Optional timeout: number

      the time (milliseconds) to wait before sending the request.

    Returns this

  • Proxies a member function such that it can be called with this object in a context that this object is not available. It sounds a bit strange at beginning but useful when passing a member of an object that will be executed as a global function.

    Example: Let us say if you want a member function to be called periodically, you can do as follows. ```ts setInterval(wgt.proxy(wgt.doIt), 1000); //assume doIt is a member function of wgt ```

    With proxy, when doIt is called, this references to wgt. On the other hand, the following won't work since this doesn't reference to wgt, when doIt is called. ```ts setInterval(wgt.doIt, 1000); //WRONG! doIt will not be called with wgt ```

    Notice that this method caches the result so that it will return the same proxied function, if you pass the same function again.
