aps/ActiveItem

Composite collapsible list item.

Used as a child in an ``ActiveList`` and contains other widgets.

Compatibility

CP only

This widget can be used only as a child of an aps/ActiveList container.

Overview

aps/ActiveItem is a complex widget consisting of a header with its own complex structure and an embedded part that may be collapsed (hidden).

Header Properties

The widget header is defined by the following properties:

• iconName - path to the icon file.
• title - title on top of the widget.
• description - plain text, HTML, widget, DOM Node, or array to display information located below the title (can be dynamic) about the resource presented by the widget.
• info - plain text, HTML, widget, DOM Node, or array to display additional information (can be dynamic) about the resource presented by the widget.
• collapsible - define if it is allowed to collapse the internal part of the widget or not.
• collapsed - define if the internal part is collapsed at the moment.

Child Widgets in Header

The header can contain the following child widgets:

• aps/ToolbarButton - a direct child of the ActiveItem widget and, once defined, it is added to the toolbar automatically.
• aps/Switch - used inside another widget or assigned to a property, for example, assigned as a value to the Info property. It allows switching the ActiveItem status to on or off.
• aps/InfoBoard - a direct child of the ActiveItem and, once defined, it will be automatically placed into the location of the information board.

Embedded Part

In its embedded part, the aps/ActiveItem widget may contain arbitrary widgets which can have their own child widgets. More detailed information on widget declaration see in Declarations. We recommend that you to use as child elements only widgets of the container category, that is aps/Container, aps/FieldSet, and so on. Widgets of other categories should be packaged in containers.

The embedded part may be hidden. To prohibit hiding and make the embedded part always visible, you need to assign false to the collapsible property.

addChild

Makes the given widget a child of this widget. Inserts specified child widget’s dom node as a child of this widget’s container node, and possibly does other processing (such as layout).

Return: undefined

ARGUMENT	TYPE	DESCRIPTION
child	Widget	Child widget
insertIndex	Number String	Position child in the parent node

cancel

Sets the isBusy property to false.

Return: object

destroy

Destroys this widget. Will also destroy any resources (including widgets) registered via this.own(). This method will also destroy internal widgets such as those created from a template.

Return: undefined

focus

Focusing the focusable child

Return: aps/_containerbase function

get

Get a property of the Stateful instance. Get a named property of the Stateful object. The property may potentially be retrieved via a getter method in subclasses.

In the base class, this just retrieves the object’s property.

Return: any

getChildren

Returns list of own children plus ToolbarButtons

Return: array

getParents

Discover and return all parents of the widget.

Return: array

placeAt

Place this widget somewhere in the DOM based on standard dojo/dom-construct::place() conventions. A convenience function providing a simple shorthand mechanism to put an existing (or newly created) widget somewhere in the DOM, and allow chaining.

Return: dijit/_widgetbase function

removeAll

Remove all children in the widget.

Return: undefined

removeChild

Removes the passed widget instance from this widget and destroys it. You can also pass in an integer indicating the index within the container to remove (ie, removeChild(5) removes the sixth widget).

Return: undefined

ARGUMENT	TYPE	DESCRIPTION
widget	Widget Int	Child widget or index

reset

Resets the widget.

Return: undefined

set

Set a property of the Stateful instance. Sets named properties of the stateful object and notifies the watchers of the property. A programmatic setter may be defined in subclasses.

Return: object function

startup

Processing after the DOM fragment is added to the document. Called after a widget and its children have been created and added to the page and all related widgets have finished their creation cycle, that is after the postCreate() function is successfully completed for each of the related widgets. Note that startup() may be called while the widget is still hidden.

Return: undefined

validate

Called by oninit, onblur, and onkeypress. Show missing or invalid messages if appropriate, and highlight textbox field.

Return: boolean

Public Events

EVENT	RETURN	DESCRIPTION
onClick ()	undefined	The method is called when a user clicks on the widget
