Extjs data binding in a form - apache-flex

I have just recently made a move from Adobe Flex to Sencha ExtJs.
I can't seem to find an equivalent of data binding in ExtJs where a form value depends on another form value.
e.g. I am creating an SMS window where i show the count of characters entered in a message field.
This is how i am doing in ExtJS. Also, the fiddle - http://jsfiddle.net/xxB4J/
Ext.create('Ext.window.Window',{
items: [
{
xtype: 'textarea',
fieldLabel: 'Message',
listeners: {
change: function() {
var countLabel = this.up('window').down('#lbCharacterCount');
countLabel.setText(this.getValue().length + '/160 Characters');
}
}
},
{
xtype: 'label',
itemId: 'lbCharacterCount',
text: '0/160 Characters'
}
]
}).show();
Now, in Flex this was as simple as doing
<mx:Text text="{message.text.length.toString()}/160 Characters}" />
So, just want to know if there is some sort of similar data binding in ExtJS? or the way i am doing is the only way of doing it?
Thank you

Maybe, you could use a textarea configuration:
Sencha:
maxLength and maxLengthText
or is the control field editable ?

ExtJS Combobox not rendering properly

I have the following fieldset in a form Panel in the Admin Dashboard template using ExtJS 6.2:
{
xtype: 'fieldset',
layout: 'anchor',
items: [{
xtype: 'combobox',
listeners : {
select : function() {
console.log(arguments)
console.log(arguments[1].data.birth_date)
console.log(arguments[1].data.first_name)
console.log(arguments[1].data.last_name)
console.log(arguments[1].data.sex)
}
},
bind: {
store: '{patients}'
},
reference: 'patientCombo',
publishes: 'id',
fieldLabel: 'Patient Search',
displayField: 'mrn',
//anchor: '-',
// We're forcing the query to run every time by setting minChars to 0
// (default is 4)
minChars: 2,
queryParam: '0',
queryMode: 'local',
typeAhead: true,
// https://www.sencha.com/forum/showthread.php?156505-Local-combobox-with-any-match-filter
doQuery: function(queryString, forceAll) {
this.expand();
this.store.clearFilter(!forceAll);
if (!forceAll) {
this.store.filter(this.displayField, new RegExp(Ext.String.escapeRegex(queryString), 'i'));
}
}
}, {
// https://www.sencha.com/forum/showthread.php?299301-Bind-combobox-displayField-value-to-displayfield
xtype: 'displayfield',
fieldLabel: 'Selected Patient',
bind: {
html: '<p>Name: <b>{patientCombo.selection.first_name}, ' +
'{patientCombo.selection.last_name} </b></p>' +
'<p>Sex: {patientCombo.selection.sex}</p>' +
'<p>Birthdate: {patientCombo.selection.birth_date}</p>'
}
}]
},
It is working fine, but it is rendering rather strangely, as seen in the following image (I had to mask the data being presented, but the numbers are what to be selected from the combobox):
I am assuming this is a CSS issue, but have not been able to figure out what. NB: I had to copy Admin-all.css Admin-all_1.css Admin-all_2.css and Admin-all_3.css from the build/examples/admin-dashboard/classic/resources folder to the app after I created the template in order to fix a major layout issue.
Yes, this is a CSS issue. The Admin Dashboard example and its CSS have been compiled using Sencha Cmd, so the CSS file contains only the styles required by the example. Since there is no combobox in the example, the combobox styles have not been added and the combobox you inserted does not render correctly.
The only solution would be to use Sencha Cmd to recompile from source and fix the layout issue along the way, which I guess is caused by a missing requires directive.

UI5 StandardListItem DetailAndActive change Icon

I would like to change the standard "pen" icon of the
StandardListItem of type DetailAndActive
. Is there a way to do so?
my XML so far:
<List
id="master1List"
items="{/path}"
mode="{device>/listMode}"
select="onSelect"
itemPress="showDetail"
growing="true"
growingScrollToLoad="true">
<items>
<StandardListItem
type="DetailAndActive"
activeIcon="sap-icon://message-information"
id="master1ListItem"
press="onSelect"
title="{title}">
</StandardListItem>
</items>
</List>
As far as I know there are only properties "icon" (which I do not need) and "activeIcon" (which I set but which is also not shown on itemPress/tab). I thought I might change it via css, but it is set in a data-attribute (Icon font, not a uri I could overwrite) and then applied:
.sapUiIcon:before {
content: attr(data-sap-ui-icon-content);
...
Thanks..
[EDIT:]
I accepted the below answer as correct because it works. BUT as you can read in my comment, I'd like to make it possible to accept Controls by using the aggregations metadata like described here:
metadata: {
aggregations: {
"Button" : {type : "sap.m.Button", multiple : false, visibility: "public"}
},
defaultAggregation: "Button"
},
This works so far that that I am now allowed to add a Button control to the ListItem in my XML view, but it is not rendered :-) Any ideas what I miss here additionally?
The icon is hardcoded deep in the control. I found I can extend the StandardListItem to get the result you want like this.
sap.m.StandardListItem.extend('my.StandardListItem', {
renderer: {},
constructor: function(sId, mProperties) {
sap.m.StandardListItem.prototype.constructor.apply(this, arguments);
var sURI = sap.ui.core.IconPool.getIconURI("action");
this._detailIcon =
new sap.ui.core.Icon({
src:sURI})
.setParent(this, null, true)
.addStyleClass("sapMLIBIconDet");
}
});
There is a working example at http://jsbin.com/tuqufe/1/edit?js,output
The bad news is that in the next release (1.28.?) the way that this is done changes significantly so you will need to redo the extended control.
[EDIT:] Sorry I forgot about this one. I just built a quick sample with the OpenUI5 V1.30 beta library. Now the key code looks like this...
sap.m.StandardListItem.extend('my.StandardListItem', {
metadata: {
properties: {
"detailIcon": "string"
}
},
renderer: {},
setDetailIcon: function(icon) {
this.DetailIconURI = sap.ui.core.IconPool.getIconURI(icon);
}
});

Reference to button by name

i am have 2 forms, and in first form i am have button1:
Buttons[{
width: 350,
text: 'Book',
name:'button1'}]
on second form i am have button2, and when button click in second form, then button in first form disabled, before i am use id of button (id:'button1') and make this:
Ext.getCmp('button1').setDisabled(true);
but now i am remove ID and use name in components. But i am didn"t know how disable button1 by name!
Buttons don't have a name property - you should consult the documentation to see what configuration variables you have available to you. I'd instead assign it an itemId so you can make use of the up() and down() functions in order to easily find an item in the component hierarchy from an event handler.
Or if you want to find it directly you can use the following to lookup up the item:
{
text : 'Button',
itemId : 'buttonSelector'
}
var button = Ext.ComponentQuery.query('#buttonSelector');
if(button.length) button[0].disable();
Keep in mind that the ComponentQuery utility returns an array of items (even if you make your itemId unique). Here's a simple fiddle / demonstration.
In response to your comment, there may be confusion in regards to what the buttons config actually does - according to the docs it is shorthand for the following:
dockedItems: [{
xtype: 'toolbar',
dock: 'bottom',
ui: 'footer',
defaults: {minWidth: minButtonWidth},
items: [
{ xtype: 'component', flex: 1 },
{ xtype: 'button', text: 'Button 1' }
]
}]
... this creates an extra "step" in the hierarchy which you must account for in a query. For example, if your form had an itemId of formId you could try something like:
Ext.ComponentQuery.query('#formId toolbar #myButtonId')[0].disable();
I've updated your fiddle to demonstrate this.

How to add custom formatting to Redactor

I'm wondering if it's possible to add custom formatting to redactor? I created a custom button, and I'm able to change the formatting of text, but only using certain elements:
['p', 'blockquote', 'pre', 'h3', 'h4', 'h5']
However, I'm not able to add any of the following:
['small', 'figcaption']
I followed the Redactor docs to set up the button, and here is my function that is being called:
var selected_html = $('#redactor_content').getSelected();
$('#redactor_content').execCommand('formatblock', '<small>');
I also tried adding elements to my 'formattingTags' array, but it didn't seem to have any affect.
formattingTags: ['p', 'blockquote', 'small', 'pre', 'h3', 'h4']
Thank you in advance.
I think I figured it out.
I added the following to my button function:
var $selected_html = $('#redactor_content').getSelected();
$('#redactor_content').execCommand('inserthtml', '<small>' + $selected_html + '</small>');
However, this is not perfect as it does not replace the parent tag, and you can keep adding elements within elements.
Something like that:
redactorOptionsDefaults = {
buttonsAdd: {},
activeButtonsAdd: {},
buttonsCustom: {}
};
redactorOptionsDefaults.buttonsCustom.small = {
title: 'small Header',
callback: function () {
this.formatBlocks('small');
}
}
redactorOptionsDefaults.activeButtonsAdd.small = 'small';
It formatting block, highlight button if needed while selecting block. But don't remove style while repeat button click

How to sort dynamically added data in Sencha grid

Steps to reproduce:
Open http://dev.sencha.com/deploy/ext-4.0.0/examples/restful/restful.html
Sort data by ID column
Add row
The row will be at top of grid but it can be at bottom
The question: how to sort dynamically added data?
The newly added row is added to the store, see store.insert() in the sample code:
dockedItems: [{
xtype: 'toolbar',
items: [{
text: 'Add',
iconCls: 'icon-add',
handler: function(){
// empty record
store.insert(0, new Person());
rowEditing.startEdit(0, 0);
}
}, '-', {
text: 'Delete',
iconCls: 'icon-delete',
handler: function(){
var selection = grid.getView().getSelectionModel().getSelection()[0];
if (selection) {
store.remove(selection);
}
}
}]
}]
Then it is 'edited' with real values and the store record is updated accordingly.
Maybe all you have to do is to call
store.sort('email', 'ASC');
But refreshing the grid view might be enough, since after all you already ask it to be sorted:
grid.getView().refresh();
