Methods

_getAttrNames(name)

Helper function for get() and set(). Caches attribute name values so we don't do the string ops every time.

Parameter Type Description
name undefined
Returns:undefined | object
_initButton()
_set(name,value)

Helper function to set new value for specified attribute

Parameter Type Description
name String
value anything
_setDisabledAttr(disabled)

Function to set the plugin state and call updateState to make sure the button is updated appropriately.

Parameter Type Description
disabled undefined
buttonClass()
connect(o,f,tf)

Deprecated. Use this.own() with dojo/on or dojo/aspect.instead.

Make a connect.connect() that is automatically disconnected when this plugin is destroyed. Similar to dijit/_Widget.connect().

Parameter Type Description
o undefined
f undefined
tf undefined
destroy()
get(name)

Get a property from a plugin.

Get a named property from a plugin. The property may potentially be retrieved via a getter method. If no getter is defined, this just retrieves the object's property. For example, if the plugin has a properties "foo" and "bar" and a method named "_getFooAttr", calling:

plugin.get("foo");

would be equivalent to writing:

plugin._getFooAttr();

and:

plugin.get("bar");

would be equivalent to writing:

plugin.bar;
Parameter Type Description
name undefined

The property to get.

Returns:undefined
getLabel(key)

Returns the label to use for the button

Parameter Type Description
key String
Returns:undefined
own()
Defined by dijit/Destroyable

Track specified handles and remove/destroy them when this instance is destroyed, unless they were already removed/destroyed manually.

Returns:any | undefined

The array of specified handles, so you can do for example:

var handle = this.own(on(...))[0];
set(name,value)

Set a property on a plugin

Sets named properties on a plugin which may potentially be handled by a setter in the plugin. For example, if the plugin has a properties "foo" and "bar" and a method named "_setFooAttr", calling:

plugin.set("foo", "Howdy!");

would be equivalent to writing:

plugin._setFooAttr("Howdy!");

and:

plugin.set("bar", 3);

would be equivalent to writing:

plugin.bar = 3;

set() may also be called with a hash of name/value pairs, ex:

plugin.set({
    foo: "Howdy",
    bar: 3
})

This is equivalent to calling set(foo, "Howdy") and set(bar, 3)

Parameter Type Description
name attribute

The property to set.

value anything

The value to set in the property.

Returns:function | string

Set a property on a plugin

setEditor(editor)

Tell the plugin which Editor it is associated with.

Parameter Type Description
editor dijit/Editor
setToolbar(toolbar)

Tell the plugin to add it's controller widget (often a button) to the toolbar. Does nothing if there is no controller widget.

Parameter Type Description
toolbar dijit/Toolbar
updateState()

Overrides _Plugin.updateState(). This updates the ColorPalette to show the color of the currently selected text.
