ReleaseComboBox - rally

Having an issue getting the selected value from the ReleaseComboBox.
I am trying to get this value to use as a filter, so my _onChange event looks something like this:
_onReleaseComboboxChanged: function () {
var config = {
storeConfig: {
filters: [
{
property: 'ScheduleState',
value: 'Defined'
},
{
property: 'Release.Name',
value: this.iterationCombobox.rawValue
}
]
}
};
this.cardBoard.refresh(config);
},
So this works great most of the time, EXCEPT the combobox is truncating the longer release names, so if your release is named Release 2 - Cool new feature to production, the rawValue = something like "Release 2 - Cool new feature to...". Obviously, this makes my query return 0 records...
I have looked all through the object in debug, checked docs, I am just not seeing it.
Surely I am missing something here, i checked comboBox to see if there is a truncate property, but dont see that either.
Any suggestions?

You should always be able to get the currently selected record using the getRecord() method.
var selectedIteration = this.iterationCombobox.getRecord();
var iterationName = selectedIteration.get('Name');

OpenUI5 sap.m.Input Currency Formatting

This looks to be answered many different times but I can't seem to get it working with my implementation. I am trying to format and limit the data in a sap.m.Input element. I currently have the following:
var ef_Amount = new sap.m.Input({
label: 'Amount',
textAlign: sap.ui.core.TextAlign.Right,
value: {
path: '/amount',
type: 'sap.ui.model.type.Currency'
}
});
The first problem is that it kind of breaks the data binding. When I inspect the raw data (with Fiddler) submitted to the server it is an array like this:
"amount": [1234.25,null]
The server is expecting a single number and as such has issues with the array.
When I use the following, the binding works as desired but no formatting is performed.
var ef_Amount = new sap.m.Input({
label: 'Amount',
textAlign: sap.ui.core.TextAlign.Right,
value: '{/amount}'
});
The second problem is that the data entered is not limited to numbers.
I have tried using sap.m.MaskedInput instead but I don't like the usage of the placeholders because I never know the size of the number to be entered.
And lastly, it would be nice if when focus is placed on the input field, that all formatting is removed and re-formatted again when focus lost.
Should I be looking into doing this with jQuery or even raw Javascript instead?
Thank you for looking.
the array output is a normal one according to documentation. So you need to teach your server to acccept this format or preprocess data before submission;
this type is not intended to limit your data input;
good feature, but ui5 does not support this, because the Type object has no idea about control and it's events like "focus" it only deals with data input-output. So you have to implement this functionality on your own via extending the control or something else.
I would suggest using amount and currency separately. It's likely that user should be allowed to enter only valid currency, so you can use a combobox with the suggestions of the available currencies.
So, after much work and assistance from #Andrii, I managed to get it working. The primary issue was that onfocusout broke the updating of the model and the change event from firing. Simply replacing onfocusout with onsapfocusleave took care of the issues.
The final code in the init method of my custom control:
var me = this;
var numberFormat = sap.ui.core.NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance({maxFractionDigits: 2});
me.addEventDelegate({
onAfterRendering: function() {
// for formatting the figures initially when loaded from the model
me.bindValue({
path: me.getBindingPath('value'),
formatter: function(value) {
return numberFormat.format(value);
}
});
},
onfocusin: function() {
// to remove formatting when the user sets focus to the input field
me.bindValue(me.getBindingPath('value'));
},
onsapfocusleave: function() {
me.bindValue({
path: me.getBindingPath('value'),
formatter: function(value) {
return numberFormat.format(value);
}
});
}
});

dojo1.10 Dynamic update of dijit.form.Select

I was trying to asynchronously update a Select field via Memory and ObjectStore. This doesn't work. Setting the data to the Memory object before creating the Select element works fine. Updating the Memory object after creating the Select element doesn't work anymore.
Example code:
require([
"dojo/ready",
"dijit/form/Select",
"dojo/store/Memory",
"dojo/store/Observable",
"dojo/data/ObjectStore",
'dojo/domReady!'
], function(ready, Select, Memory, Observable, ObjectStore, dom){
ready(function() {
var mymem = new Memory();
var myobs = new Observable(mymem);
var mystore = new ObjectStore({ objectStore: myobs });
/* updating memory here works :) */
//mymem.setData([ { id: 2, label: 'qwertz2' }, { id: 3, label: 'qwertz3' } ]);
var s = new Select({
store: mystore
}, 'appsAdminQueueContainer');
s.startup();
/* updating memory here doesn't work :( */
mymem.setData([ { id: 2, label: 'qwertz2' }, { id: 3, label: 'qwertz3' } ]);
});
}
);
Real working example: https://jsfiddle.net/mirQ/ra0dqb63/5/
Is this a bug or is there a solution to be able to update the content of the Select field after creating it - without having to access the Select field directly?
UPDATE
Thank you for your response.
The use of dojo/ready was just a missed leftover while simplifying my code, sorry.
That the use of the ObjectStore is not necessary was not clear to me. Thanks for clearing up.
Okay, the real problem seems to be indeed the last point. I think I have to extend my description.
Updated/extended problem description:
I'm using a grid. At first I was using dojox/grid/DataGrid, but then I switched to dgrid. Everything works well, but I want to use dijit.form.Select as editor for one column. This works also well if the data is static. But in one column I have to read dynamic data from the server. This data comes in JSON format.
First I tried to solve this with the use of dojo/data/ItemFileReadStore - that worked. But it's deprecated and I need to implement a formatter for that column that has to have access to the same JSON data read from the server. I don't have the code for that solution anymore, but it didn't work. I wasn't able to successfully query the data from within the formatter function.
Then I switched to Memory and xhr. The response from the server comes after the Memory object is created (and, as it seems, after creating the Select), so I had to use setData to bring my loaded data in the store. And because the Select is only an editor of a grid, I don't have access to the object itself to be able to re-set the store after updating the data.
I hope my extended description makes my real problem a bit clearer. Thanks in advance for your help!

This works for me:
require([
'dijit/form/Select',
'dojo/store/Memory',
'dojo/store/Observable',
], function (Select, Memory, Observable) {
var mymem = new Memory({
data: [{
id: 2,
label: 'qwertz2'
}, {
id: 3,
label: 'qwertz3'
}]
});
var myobs = new Observable(mymem);
var s = new Select({
labelAttr: 'label',
store: myobs
}, 'appsAdminQueueContainer');
s.startup();
myobs.add({ id: 4, label: 'qwerty' });
});
Notable changes:
There's no reason to use dojo/ready in this code. The require callback already waits for modules to load, and as long as this script is at the bottom of the body, there's no need to wait for the DOM to load, either.
There's no need to use a dojo/data store adapter. dijit/form/Select supports dojo/store as well (as of 1.8 if I recall correctly). This might also have been why observation wasn't working. The only difference is labelAttr must be specified on the Select since dojo/store has no concept of a label property.
(Edit) now that I re-read the question, I notice you are calling setData. setData does not fire observers. setData completely resets the store's data, and to reflect that, you would need to actually reset the store on the select entirely (which requires calling setStore, not set('store', ...), if you are using 1.9 or earlier, because Select was never updated properly to support the set API until 1.10).
(Edit #2) Given that the primary reason you are calling setData is due to creating the store before actually having data for it, your case would probably be greatly simplified by using the RequestMemory store implementation from dojo-smore. It basically re-adds the url support that dojo/data/ItemFileReadStore had but dojo/store/Memory didn't.

adding jquery validation to kendo ui elements

I've looked at many posts on this and have it working to the extent that it does validate my fields when I add the following.
$.validator.setDefaults({
ignore: []
});
The part I'm still missing is adding the input-validation-error class to notify the user. It is working fine for my other input elements (non-kendo). I've tried adding the class manually in $.validator.setDefaults as well but nothing seems to be working.
Is there an example out there somewhere or has anyone gotten it to work?
I'm not certain I'm doing this right but here's what I've tried to add it manually.
$.validator.setDefaults({
ignore: [],
errorClass: "input-validation-error",
errorElement: "input",
highlight: function (element, errorClass) {
$(element).addClass(errorClass)
},
unhighlight: function (element, errorClass) {
$(element).removeClass(errorClass)
}
});
I found a solution to this based on this post. Basically what you need to do is look for the parent element that the input is wrapped in. Something like this:
$.validator.setDefaults({
ignore: [],
highlight: function (element, errorClass) {
element = $(element);
if (element.parent().hasClass("k-widget")) {
element.parent().addClass('input-validation-error');
} else {
element.addClass('input-validation-error')
}
},
unhighlight: function (element, errorClass) {
element = $(element);
if (element.parent().hasClass("k-widget")) {
element.parent().removeClass('input-validation-error');
} else {
element.removeClass('input-validation-error')
}
}
});
I would advise anyone though to visit the post I've linked to above before taking off down this particular rabbit hole as it introduces another issue, just to be aware of what you're getting into. The excepted answer is really more relevant to this question than the one being asked there.

Ext JS 4: Getters and setters in view

I've been thinking about this problem for a while, and I can't seem to come up with a reasonable solution. What I would like to do is create getters/setters for a textfield/its value in my view. I realize that the preferred Ext JS way is using a reference within the controller and getting it that way, but that doesn't feel very object-oriented to me. I'd also have to wrap these getters and setters because I want to output a message if the getter returns undefined. What I'd like to do is create my own getters/setters or somehow override the default getters/setters. Here are some ways I was thinking of accomplishing this.
I was thinking I could use the config {}, but that appears to only work for variables I want to define. I then was thinking of using an id somehow, but the community seems split on whether that's a good practice or not. Which leads to my current solution... wrapping. Here's my code:
LoginWindow
Ext.define('MyApp.view.LoginWindow', {
extend: 'Ext.window.Window',
alias: 'widget.loginWindow',
autoShow: true,
closable: false,
border: 0,
plain: true,
allowBlank: false,
title: "Enter your username",
modal: true,
config: {
buttons: [{
text: "Ok"
}],
items: [{
xtype: 'textfield',
fieldLabel: 'Username',
id: 'loginUserInput',
name: 'loginUserInput',
msgTarget: 'under',
validator: function(value) {
if (Ext.isEmpty(value)) {
return "You need to enter a username.";
}
return true;
}
}]
},
constructor: function(config) {
this.callParent(config);
},
getButton: function() {
console.log('here');
}
});
MyController
Ext.define('MyApp.controller.Chat', {
extend: 'Ext.app.Controller',
requires: [
'Views.ChatModule.view.LoginWindow'
],
refs: [{
ref: 'loginWindow',
selector: 'loginWindow',
xtype: 'loginWindow',
autoCreate: true
}, {
ref: 'loginUserInput',
selector: '#loginUserInput'
}],
init: function() {
// The events controller oversees
this.control({
'loginWindow button[text="Ok"]': {
'click': this.onSubmitLoginWindow
}
});
},
getLoginUserInputValue: function() {
var loginUserInput = this.getLoginUserInput();
if (loginUserInput) {
var username = loginUserInput.getValue();
if (username) {
console.log(username);
} else {
console.warn("username is undefined");
}
}
console.warn("loginUserInput is undefined");
},
onSubmitLoginWindow: function(button, event, eOpts) {
this.getLoginUserInputValue();
}
});
This works, and I realize it's a very nit-picky thing, but it just doesn't feel right to have the getter in the controller. I feel like it'd be more object-oriented if it was in the Window. However, if I put it in the Window, I believe my only option is to lean on ids or manually create the textfield in the Window's initComponent--which would involve saving off a reference of the textfield in there, but that seems a bit inefficient... as I would have to make a call to doLayout as well.
Just to reiterate, I'd love to have the getters/setters in the Window, and I'm looking for a quick way to reference it, similar to how the controller references objects. I believe the main answer will be to use ids and making a call to Ext.ComponentQuery.query('#loginUserInput') in the Window, but I'd like to know if there were any better approaches out there... like overriding the auto generated getters/setters or adding a simple getter/setter for an input's value.
Cross-post from the Sencha forums.
Edit
I guess I was a bit unclear with what I want. As a more general statement, instead of jamming all things related to my view in the controller, I'd like to store it all in the view itself, which includes things like getters/setters. One of these getters/setters just so happens to be the loginUserInput getter.
Using a model is an interesting idea, but I feel like that would be a whole lot of overhead for singleton values. I'm basically looking for something like Java's setters/getters in the LoginWindow view... and hopefully something as simple as (or close to) Java's.
The idea of including (encapsulating) it in the view makes the controller a bit cleaner, and if I delete the view, I'm deleting its functions as well, so I don't have to go hunting for the functions in the controller... all I have to worry about is removing the references (which should be minimal).
I think that the "OO" way that you're looking is to work with a Ext.data.Model for your form. If you look at the Ext.form.Basic you have methods to manipulate a model (called record) and also get the object with the values of your view. So you need:
When you create your form, use loadRecord() to bind your form to a Model.
At any time you need, use getValues() to retrieve the values of your form fields.
When submiting your form, use getRecord() and getValues() to sync your record.
Ext.define('MyApp.model.Login',{
fields : [{
name: 'username',
type: 'string'
},{
name: 'password',
type: 'string'
}]
});
Ext.define('MyApp.controller.Login',{
...
refs : [{
selector: 'window form',
ref: 'formPanel'
}],
...
openForm : function() {
//load your form and then bind the new record
var formPanel = this.getFormPanel(), //Ext.form.Panel
form = formPanel.getForm(); //Ext.form.Basic
form.loadRecord(Ext.create('MyApp.model.Login'));
},
save : function() {
//get the values in the view
var form = this.getFormPanel().getForm(),
vals = form.getValues(),
record = form.getRecord();
console.log(vals); //see the object representation of your view here
record.set(vals); //update your model
//do whatever you need with your model
}
...
});
This is an good example when you need to save the form data. In the login I think you can work directly with getValues() without binding it to a Ext.data.Model.
I am not quite certain what problem you are trying to solve to be honest with you.
If you do not like controllers listening to buttons within your window, you can have button handlers witin your view definition fire custom events that controllers can listen on. Use fireEvent method. And by the way initConfig is a recommended way to setup your views. You can break it up into methods if you wish, 'this' reference is available and is the View component being instantiated.
If you need to find inner components within the View there are many methods available from up /down to nextSibling and query .
For Components:
• Ext.getCmp(id)
• Ext.ComponentQuery.query()
• up()
• down()
• nextSibling()
• previousSibling()
• child()
• previousNode()
plus various find.. Methods
EDIT
I think I understood what you mean by getter and setters. Ext forms have the fields finders to make it easy to get and set data to individual fields. See these SO questions: Best way to access adjacent components / fields and EXT.JS getting a list of items from a fieldset
Also like Sergio said there is getRecord getValues and setRecord methods on the form to deal with data binding. Thats it.
EDIT2
The best starting point guide that shows clear and claen MVC patterns as well as form handling. http://docs.sencha.com/extjs/4.1.3/#!/guide/application_architecture
My thoughts are something like this:
...
items: [],
constructor: function(config) {
this.loginUserInput = Ext.create('Ext.form.field.Text', {
fieldLabel: 'Username',
id: 'loginUserInput',
name: 'loginUserInput',
msgTarget: 'under',
validator: function(value) {
if (Ext.isEmpty(value)) {
return "You need to enter a username.";
}
return true;
}
});
this.items.push(this.loginUserInput);
this.callParent(config);
},
getLoginUserInput: function() {
var loginUserInput = this.loginUserInput;
if (!loginUserInput) {
console.warn("LoginWindow::getLoginUserInput: loginUserInput is undefined");
}
return loginUserInput;
}
So instead of letting Ext do its magic, I am now instantiating the object on my own, which then allows me to store away a reference of it, so I can easily access it in my getter. I just wonder if this is creating any sort of performance hit. It doesn't seem like it'd be that much worse... it actually seems like it'd be a bit better because I'm not referencing this object by its ID, and I don't have to go searching for it when I need it.

Rally grid color rows based on model

I have a rallygrid that is configured to display two models: PortfolioItem/Feature and PortfolioItem/Rollup. I want to color them in the grid to differentiate them. I am not garunteed that they will alternate in the grid, or anything like that. I just want to apply a subtle color to the rollups to differentiate them visually.
Can anyone think of an easy way to achieve this?
I have tried:
viewConfig: {
getRowClass: function(record, index, rowParams, store) {
console.log('record',record); // nothing logged in console
console.log('index',index);
return 'colorCodeGrid'; // class never added
}
},
[EDIT]
viewConfig: {
stripeRows: false, // rows are no longer striped
getRowClass: function(record, index, rowParams, store) {
console.log('record',record); // still nothing logged in console
console.log('index',index);
return 'colorCodeGrid'; // class never added
}
},
It is strange to me that the viewConfig does correctly un-stripe the rows, but the getRowClass never gets called. I thought maybe just the viewConfig as a whole was not being used in the case of a rallygrid.
Your approach above with the viewConfig should work- I am going to file a defect on this. The root cause is that the Rally.ui.grid.GridView is blowing away the getRowClass function in its constructor (for internal browser testing purposes- ugghh) rather than checking if there was one supplied and calling that as well.
You can see it the source for the constructor here: https://developer.help.rallydev.com/apps/2.0rc1/doc/source/GridView.html#Rally-ui-grid-GridView
You should be able to work around it by just re-overriding the function before the view is rendered.
[EDIT by asker]
Added the following to the grid, and it worked:
listeners: {
beforerender: function(cmp) {
console.log('beforerender');
console.log('view',cmp);
cmp.view.getRowClass = function(record, index, rowParams, store) {
console.log('record',record); // still nothing logged in console
console.log('index',index);
return 'colorCodeGrid'; // class never added
};
}
},
UPDATE:
I just fixed this in the nightly build, so this should no longer be an issue in public sdk builds beginning with the next public release after 2.0rc2.
