Media editor backbone js: Get the current action - wordpress

I'm creating a plugin that adds an option to the native WP gallery.
When a new gallery is created (clicking the "Create Gallery" button in the media popup), a 'select' element is added, and I have a backbone event listening for the 'change' event of this 'select'.
However, I only want to listen for the change event when the gallery is being newly created, rather than when editing an existing gallery.
My code so far is:
wp.media.view.Settings.Gallery = wp.media.view.Settings.Gallery.extend({
events: function() {
var the_events = {};
//NEED TO GET STATE (ie, 'creating gallery for first time' rather than 'edit gallery'....
var is_create_gallery = true;
//IF WE'RE EDITING, SET IT TO FALSE
//--here--
if (is_create_gallery) {
_.extend( the_events, { 'change select[data-setting="gallerytype"]' : 'gallerytypechanged' } );
}
return the_events;
},
gallerytypechanged: function( e ){
e.preventDefault();
var self = this;
var gallery_type = jQuery( e.currentTarget ).val();
if( gallery_type != 'native' ){
self.update.apply( self, ['gallerytype'] );
}
return self;
},
template: function(view) {
return wp.media.template('gallery-settings')(view) + wp.media.template('gallery-type')(view);
},
});
Basically the --here-- code should be a check to determine whether we're editing an existing gallery, or creating a new one.
Does anybody know where to check which state we're in?
Thanks!

I assume you can detect the state of the gallery outside of your Backbone View.
You could set the is_create_gallery state when initializing the backbone view, then call your view constructor with the custom argument:
var newGallery = // determine the gallery state
var view = new wp.media.view.Settings.Gallery({newGallery: newGallery});
You can access the passed argument in your initialize function like this:
initialize: function (options) {
if (options.newGallery) {
_.extend(this.events, {
'change select[data-setting="gallerytype"]' : 'gallerytypechanged'
});
}
}
Since your events map will be either empty or contain one event, I would remove the events key completely and do the events initialization from initialize.

mmenu wordpress plugin - bind open / close events

I am using the licenced wordpress plugin version 3.1.0.
I have the menu working, but I cannot access the mmenu API to trigger the button open / close effect I would like to use. Previously I have used the mmenu core version [not WP plugin] and triggered the class changes using this:
var $menu = $("#menu").mmenu({...})
var API = $menu.data("mmenu");
API.bind("open:finish", function () {
$("#menu-btn").addClass("is-active");
});
API.bind("close:finish", function () {
$("#menu-btn").removeClass("is-active");
});
Modifying the var API to use the plugin generated id fails with undefined, probably because the menu creation is managed in a different script.
var API = $('#mm-1').data("mmenu"); //'mm-1' - the plugin generated mmenu id
I have also tried to use jQuery direct on #menu-btn but it is not triggered unless I remove the #menu-btn from the mmenu settings. For example [not copied, just a rough example so please ignore syntax errors]:
$("#menu-btn").click(function(){console.log('click')});
all I need is to add / remove an 'is-active' class to the open menu link [id=menu-btn].
The mmenu adds a body class when opened, so added a mutation observer to check if the has the .mm-wrapper--opened class or not. If it does, add the 'is-active' class to the menu icon (which uses the .hamburger class) and if not, remove it.
if ($('body').hasClass('mm-wrapper--opened')){
$('.hamburger').addClass("is-active");
}
const targetNode = document.body;
const config = { childList : true, attributes: true };
const callback = function(mutationsList, observer) {
for(let mutation of mutationsList) {
if (mutation.type === 'attributes') {
if ($('body').hasClass('mm-wrapper--opened')){
setTimeout(() => { $('.hamburger').addClass("is-active"); }, 500);
}
else {
$('.hamburger').removeClass("is-active");
}
}
}
};
const observer = new MutationObserver(callback);
observer.observe(targetNode, config);

Fullcalendar using resources as a function with select menu

Using Fullcalendar 4, I am trying to show/hide my resources using a select menu. When the user selects one of the providers from a menu, I want to only show that one resourc's events.
Above my fullcalendar I have my select menu:
<select id="toggle_providers_calendar" class="form-control" >
<option value="1" selected>Screech Powers</option>
<option value="2">Slater</option>
</select>
I am gathering the resources I need using an ajax call on my included fullcalendar.php page. I am storing them in an object and then trying to control which resources are shown onscreen:
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
var resourceData = [];
$.getJSON('ajax_get_json.php?what=schedule_providers_at_location',
function(data) {
$.each(data, function(index) {
resourceData.push({
id: data[index].value,
title: data[index].text
});
});
console.log(resourceData);
});
//below, set the visible resources to whatever is selected in the menu
//using 1 in order for that to show at start
var visibleResourceIds = ["1"];
//below, get the selected id when the the menu is changed and use that in the toggle resource function
$('#toggle_providers_calendar').change(function() {
toggleResource($('#toggle_providers_calendar').val());
});
var calendar_full = document.getElementById('calendar_full');
var calendar = new FullCalendar.Calendar(calendar_full, {
events: {
url: 'ajax_get_json.php?what=location_appointments'
},
height: 700,
resources: function(fetchInfo, successCallback, failureCallback) {
// below, I am trying to filter resources by whether their id is in visibleResourceIds.
var filteredResources = [];
filteredResources = resourceData.filter(function(x) {
return visibleResourceIds.indexOf(x.id) !== -1;
});
successCallback(filteredResources);
},
...
});
// below, my toggle_providers_calendar will trigger this function. Feed it resourceId.
function toggleResource(resourceId) {
var index = visibleResourceIds.indexOf(resourceId);
if (index !== -1) {
visibleResourceIds.splice(index, 1);
} else {
visibleResourceIds.push(resourceId);
}
calendar.refetchResources();
}
To make sure the getJSON is working, I have console.log(resourceData). The information in the console once it's gathered is:
[{id: '1', title: 'Screech Powers'}, {id: '2', title: 'Slater}]
... the above are the correct resources that can be chosen/rendered. So that seems to be okay.
On page load, no resources show at all, when resource id of '1' (Screech Powers) should be shown per my code. Well, at least, that's what I am trying to do right now.
When the menu changes, resources will show/hide, but not based on what's selected; the logic of only showing what is selected in the menu doesn't seem to be working.
I used to use a URL request for my resources: 'ajax_get_json.php?what=schedule_providers_at_location', and it worked fine! All resources show then their events properly. I am just trying to modify it by using a menu to show/hide the resources as needed.
Here's what I'm doing to make it happen so far! In case someone comes across this post ever, this will help.
Here's my code before my fullcalendar code.
var resourceData = [];
var visibleResourceIds = [];
$.getJSON('ajax_get_json.php?what=schedule_providers_at_location',
function(data) {
$.each(data, function(index) {
resourceData.push({
id: data[index].value,
title: data[index].text
});
});
});
$('#toggle_providers_calendar').change(function() {
toggleResource($('#toggle_providers_calendar').val());
});
My select menu with id 'toggle_providers_calendar' is the same as my original post. My fullcalendar resources as a function is the same too.
After the calendar is rendered, here are the changes I made to my toggle resources function:
// menu button/dropdown will trigger this function. Feed it resourceId.
function toggleResource(resourceId) {
visibleResourceIds = [];
//if select all... see if undefined from loading on initial load = true
if ((resourceId == '') || (resourceId === undefined)) {
$.map( resourceData, function( value, index ) {
visibleResourceIds.push(value.id);
});
}
var index = visibleResourceIds.indexOf(resourceId);
if (index !== -1) {
visibleResourceIds.splice(index, 1);
} else {
visibleResourceIds.push(resourceId);
}
calendar.refetchResources();
}
This causes the resources to show and hide properly. If the user selects "Show All" that works too!
In order to have a default resource show on load, I add this to my fullcalendar script:
loading: function(bool) {
if (bool) {
//insert code if still loading
$('.loader').show();
} else {
$('.loader').hide();
if (initial_load) {
initial_load = false;
//code here once done loading and initial_load = true
var default_resource_to_show = "<?php echo $default_provider; ?>";
if (default_resource_to_show) {
//set the menu to that provider and trigger the change event to toggleresrource()
$('#toggle_providers_calendar').val(default_provider).change();
} else {
//pass in nothing meaning 'select all' providers for scheduler to see
toggleResource();
}
}
}
},
I am using a bool variable of initial_load to see if the page was just loaded (basically not loading data without a page refresh). The bool of initial_load = true is set outside of DOMContentLoaded
<script>
//show selected date in title box
var initial_load = true;
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
My only current problem is that when toggleResource function is called, the all day vertical time block boundaries don't line up with the rest of the scheduler. Once I start navigating, they do, but I don't understand why it looks like this on initial load or when toggleResource() is called:
Any thoughts on how to correct the alignment of the allday vertical blocks?

Dynamically toggle resource column visibility

I have a FullCalendar scheduler on a webapp which has 2 way databinding for resources and events, all working great. I want to be able to present the user with a dropdown that enables them to toggle the visibility of a column, ideally completely client side.
I have tried a combination of addResource / removeResource however my issue here is that a rerender of the calendar (e.g. when a new event is added) then displays the previously removed resource. I can work around this however would prefer a really simple approach using JS / CSS. I currently cannot find a way to set a resource to not be visible, or to have zero width - is this possible?
There is an easy way to do this:
Store resources in an array variable resourceData.
Create another array called visibleResourceIds to store the ids of any resources you want to show.
In the resources callback function, filter resourceData to only contain the resources where the resource id exists in visibleResourceIds. Return the filtered array and fullcalendar will only add the desired resources for you.
To remove a resource from view, simply remove the resource id from visibleResourceIds and refetchResources. To add the resource back in, add the id to visibleResourceIds and refetchResources. DONE.
JSFiddle
var resourceData = [
{id: "1", title: "R1"},
{id: "2", title: "R2"},
{id: "3", title: "R3"}
];
var visibleResourceIds = ["1", "2", "3"];
// Your button/dropdown will trigger this function. Feed it resourceId.
function toggleResource(resourceId) {
var index = visibleResourceIds.indexOf(resourceId);
if (index !== -1) {
visibleResourceIds.splice(index, 1);
} else {
visibleResourceIds.push(resourceId);
}
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('refetchResources');
}
$('#calendar').fullCalendar({
defaultView: 'agendaDay',
resources: function(callback) {
// Filter resources by whether their id is in visibleResourceIds.
var filteredResources = [];
filteredResources = resourceData.filter(function(x) {
return visibleResourceIds.indexOf(x.id) !== -1;
});
callback(filteredResources);
}
});
I had the same challenge. Instead of a dropdown, I use checkboxes, but the workings will be the same.
My resources are stored in a variable, when I uncheck a box, the resource is removed and the resource's object is added to another array with the resourceId as key, and the index added to the object to restore the object in the same column as it originally was. When re-checking the box, the object is added to the resources array and the resources refetched.
/* retrieve the resources from the server */
var planningResources;
var removedResource = [];
$.ajax({
url: '/planning/resources/',
method: 'get',
success: function (response) {
planningResources = response;
showCalendar();
}
, error: function () {
if (typeof console == "object") {
console.log(xhr.status + "," + xhr.responseText + "," + textStatus + "," + error);
}
}
});
/* create the calendar */
showCalendar = function () {
$('#calendar').fullCalendar({
...
});
}
/* checkbox on click */
$('.resource').click(function() {
var resourceId = $(this).val();
var hideResource = !$(this)[0].checked;
$('.status:checkbox:checked').each(function () {
});
if(hideResource) {
$.each(planningResources, function(index, value){
if( value && value.id == resourceId ) {
value.ndx = index;
removedResource[resourceId] = value;
planningResources.splice(index,1);
return false;
}
});
$('#planningoverview').fullCalendar(
'removeResource',
resourceId
);
}
else {
planningResources.splice(removedResource[resourceId].ndx, 0, removedResource[resourceId]);
$('#planningoverview').fullCalendar('refetchResources');
}
});
showCalendar();
It probably doesn't get first price in a beauty contest, but it works for me ...
Cheers
You can use the resourceColumns option for this. In the column objects you can set the width property to a number of pixels or a percentage. If you pass a function here you can easily handle the width property someplace else. Your hide/show function can then set the width to 0 to hide the column. After that you can trigger reinitView to update the view: $('#calendar').fullCalendar("reinitView");

Removing a window event listener in Template.onDestroyed

I have two templates that each contain a Vimeo iframe player. I'm using FlowRouter to render the templates through {{> Template.dynamic template=main}} on the main layout.
In both templates I add listeners for video events in onCreated
Template.view.onCreated( function() {
var self = this;
if (window.addEventListener) {
window.addEventListener('message', function(event) {
viewMessageReceived(event, self)}, false);
} else {
window.attachEvent('onmessage', function(event){
viewMessageReceived(event, self)}, false);
}
});
and destroy them in onDestroyed
Template.view.onDestroyed( function() {
if (window.removeEventListener) {
console.log('view remove');
window.removeEventListener('message', function(event) {
viewMessageReceived(event, self)}, false);
} else {
window.detachEvent('onmessage', function(event){
viewMessageReceived(event, self)}, false);
}
});
And here is the function being called by the anonymous event handler:
function viewMessageReceived(event, self) {
// Handle messages from the vimeo player only
if (!(/^https?:\/\/player.vimeo.com/).test(event.origin)) {
return false;
}
if (self.playerOrigin === '*') {
self.playerOrigin = event.origin;
}
var data = JSON.parse(event.data);
switch (data.event) {
case "ready":
initializePlayer(self);
break;
case "playProgress":
self.playerTime.set(data.data.seconds);
if (self.duration === '*') self.duration = data.data.duration;
break;
case "play":
self.playerStatus.set("playing");
break;
case "pause":
self.playerStatus.set("paused");
break;
}
}
When I switch to a different template, onDestroyed runs and my console.log('view remove') fires, as expected.
But then when I navigate to the page that loads the other template with a video player, a Vimeo "playProgress" message arrives that is received by the event handler in the previous video template, which was supposed to have been removed a while ago. This throws an error because the previous template has been destroyed.
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'contentWindow' of undefined
which comes from the last line in this function:
function post(template, action, value) {
console.log('view action: %s value: %s', action, value);
var data = {method: action};
if (value) data.value = value;
var message = JSON.stringify(data);
template.player[0].contentWindow.postMessage(message, template.playerOrigin);
}
Each of the video-containing templates have their own .js file, so they each have a their own post function declaration. My understanding is that defining a function that way scopes the function just to the page.
It's only one message that arrives for the wrong player. After that, they arrive for the currently loaded player.
Why does the Vimeo message event arrive or get handled after I've already destroyed the template and when I've moved to another player?
A quote from the W3Schools website regarding the removeEventListener() method:
// Attach an event handler to <div>
document.getElementById("myDIV").addEventListener("mousemove", myFunction);
// Remove the event handler from <div>
document.getElementById("myDIV").removeEventListener("mousemove", myFunction);
Note: To remove event handlers, the function specified with the
addEventListener() method must be an external function, like in the
example above (myFunction).
Anonymous functions, like "element.removeEventListener("event",
function(){ myScript });" will not work.
For this to work, you'll need to move your function definition somewhere outside of the onRendered and onDestroyed events, and just pass the function name in the add/remove event listeners.

Reactive cursor without updating UI for added record

I am trying to make a newsfeed similar to twitter, where new records are not added to the UI (a button appears with new records count), but updates, change reactively the UI.
I have a collection called NewsItems and I a use a basic reactive cursor (NewsItems.find({})) for my feed. UI is a Blaze template with a each loop.
Subscription is done on a route level (iron router).
Any idea how to implement this kind of behavior using meteor reactivity ?
Thanks,
The trick is to have one more attribute on the NewsItem Collection Say show which is a boolean. NewsItem should have default value of show as false
The Each Loop Should display only Feeds with show == true and button should show the count of all the items with show == false
On Button click update all the elements in the Collection with show == false to show = true
this will make sure that all your feeds are shown .
As and when a new feed comes the Button count will also increase reactively .
Hope this Helps
The idea is to update the local collection (yourCollectionArticles._collection): all articles are {show: false} by default except the first data list (in order not to have a white page).
You detect first collection load using :
Meteor.subscribe("articles", {
onReady: function () {
articlesReady = true;
}
});
Then you observe new added data using
newsItems = NewsItems.find({})
newsItems.observeChanges({
addedBefore: (id, article, before)=> {
if (articlesReady) {
article.show = false;
NewsItems._collection.update({_id: id}, article);
}
else {
article.show = true;
NewsItems._collection.update({_id: id}, article);
}
}
});
Here is a working example: https://gist.github.com/mounibec/9bc90953eb9f3e04a2b3.
Finally I managed it using a session variable for the current date /time:
Template.newsFeed.onCreated(function () {
var tpl = this;
tpl.loaded = new ReactiveVar(0);
tpl.limit = new ReactiveVar(30);
Session.set('newsfeedTime', new Date());
tpl.autorun(function () {
var limit = tpl.limit.get();
var time = Session.get('newsfeedTime');
var subscription = tpl.subscribe('lazyload-newsfeed', time, limit);
var subscriptionCount = tpl.subscribe('news-count', time);
if (subscription.ready()) {
tpl.loaded.set(limit);
}
});
tpl.news = function() {
return NewsItems.find({creationTime: {$lt: Session.get('newsfeedTime')}},
{sort: {relevancy: -1 }},
{limit: tpl.loaded.get()});
},
tpl.countRecent = function() {
return Counts.get('recentCount');
},
tpl.displayCount = function() {
return Counts.get('displayCount');
}
});
Template.newsFeed.events({
'click .load-new': function (evt, tpl) {
evt.preventDefault();
var time = new Date();
var limit = tpl.limit.get();
var countNewsToAdd = tpl.countRecent();
limit += countNewsToAdd;
tpl.limit.set(limit);
Session.set('newsfeedTime', new Date());
}
});
