Guide
Using Native APIsThis device API allows you to access a users contacts using a Ext.data.Store. This allows you to search, filter and sort through all the contacts using its methods.
To use this API, all you need to do is require this class (Ext.device.Contacts) and then use Ext.device.Contacts.getContacts()
to retrieve an array of contacts.
Please note that getThumbnail and getLocalizedLabel are only for the Sencha Native Packager. Both Cordova/PhoneGap and Sencha Native Packager can access the find method though properties of returned contacts will differ.
Example
Ext.application({
name: 'Sencha',
requires: 'Ext.device.Contacts',
launch: function() {
Ext.Viewport.add({
xtype: 'list',
itemTpl: '{First} {Last}',
store: {
fields: ['First', 'Last'],
data: Ext.device.Contacts.getContacts()
}
});
}
});
Config options
The event name to bubble, or an Array of event names.
The event name to bubble, or an Array of event names.
True to include images when you get the contacts store. Please beware that this can be very slow.
Defaults to: false
A config object containing one or more event handlers to be added to this object during initialization. This
should be a valid listeners config object as specified in the addListener example for attaching
multiple handlers at once.
See the Event guide for more
Note: It is bad practice to specify a listener's config when you are defining a class using Ext.define().
Instead, only specify listeners when you are instantiating your class with Ext.create().
Properties
Instance properties
Defaults to: {id: 'observable', hooks: {destroy: 'destroy'}}
Overrides: Ext.mixin.Sortable.mixinConfig
Get the reference to the current class from which this object was instantiated. Unlike statics,
this.self is scope-dependent and it's meant to be used for dynamic inheritance. See statics
for a detailed comparison
Ext.define('My.Cat', {
statics: {
speciesName: 'Cat' // My.Cat.speciesName = 'Cat'
},
constructor: function() {
alert(this.self.speciesName); // dependent on 'this'
},
clone: function() {
return new this.self();
}
});
Ext.define('My.SnowLeopard', {
extend: 'My.Cat',
statics: {
speciesName: 'Snow Leopard' // My.SnowLeopard.speciesName = 'Snow Leopard'
}
});
var cat = new My.Cat(); // alerts 'Cat'
var snowLeopard = new My.SnowLeopard(); // alerts 'Snow Leopard'
var clone = snowLeopard.clone();
alert(Ext.getClassName(clone)); // alerts 'My.SnowLeopard'
Methods
Instance methods
Appends an after-event handler.
Same as addListener with order set to 'after'.
Parameters
- eventName : String/String[]/Object
The name of the event to listen for.
- fn : Function/String
The method the event invokes.
- scope : Object (optional)
The scope for
fn. - options : Object (optional)
An object containing handler configuration.
Fires
Appends a before-event handler. Returning false from the handler will stop the event.
Same as addListener with order set to 'before'.
Parameters
- eventName : String/String[]/Object
The name of the event to listen for.
- fn : Function/String
The method the event invokes.
- scope : Object (optional)
The scope for
fn. - options : Object (optional)
An object containing handler configuration.
Fires
Adds the specified events to the list of events which this Observable may fire.
This method has been deprecated since 2.0
It's no longer needed to add events before firing.
Parameters
Appends an event handler to this object. You can review the available handlers by looking at the 'events' section of the documentation for the component you are working with.
Combining Options
Using the options argument, it is possible to combine different types of listeners:
A delayed, one-time listener:
container.addListener('tap', this.handleTap, this, {
single: true,
delay: 100
});
Attaching multiple handlers in 1 call
The method also allows for a single argument to be passed which is a config object containing properties which specify multiple events. For example:
container.addListener({
tap : this.onTap,
swipe: this.onSwipe,
scope: this // Important. Ensure "this" is correct during handler execution
});
One can also specify options for each event handler separately:
container.addListener({
tap : { fn: this.onTap, scope: this, single: true },
swipe: { fn: button.onSwipe, scope: button }
});
See the Events Guide for more.
Parameters
- eventName : String/String[]/Object
The name of the event to listen for. May also be an object who's property names are event names.
- fn : Function/String (optional)
The method the event invokes. Will be called with arguments given to fireEvent plus the
optionsparameter described below. - scope : Object (optional)
The scope (
thisreference) in which the handler function is executed. If omitted, defaults to the object which fired the event. - options : Object (optional)
An object containing handler configuration.
This object may contain any of the following properties:
- scope : Object (optional)
The scope (
thisreference) in which the handler function is executed. If omitted, defaults to the object which fired the event. - delay : Number (optional)
The number of milliseconds to delay the invocation of the handler after the event fires.
- single : Boolean (optional)
trueto add a handler to handle just the next firing of the event, and then remove itself. - order : String (optional)
The order of when the listener should be added into the listener queue.
If you set an order of
beforeand the event you are listening to is preventable, you can returnfalseand it will stop the event.Available options are
before,currentandafter.Defaults to:
current - buffer : Number (optional)
Causes the handler to be delayed by the specified number of milliseconds. If the event fires again within that time, the original handler is not invoked, but the new handler is scheduled in its place.
- element : String (optional)
Allows you to add a listener onto a element of this component using the elements reference.
Ext.create('Ext.Component', { listeners: { element: 'element', tap: function() { alert('element tap!'); } } });All components have the
elementreference, which is the outer most element of the component. Ext.Container also has theinnerElementelement which contains all children. In most caseselementis adequate. - delegate : String (optional)
Uses Ext.ComponentQuery to delegate events to a specified query selector within this item.
// Create a container with a two children; a button and a toolbar var container = Ext.create('Ext.Container', { items: [ { xtype: 'toolbar', docked: 'top', title: 'My Toolbar' }, { xtype: 'button', text: 'My Button' } ] }); container.addListener({ // Ext.Buttons have an xtype of 'button', so we use that are a selector for our delegate delegate: 'button', tap: function() { alert('Button tapped!'); } });
- scope : Object (optional)
- order : String (optional)
The order of when the listener should be added into the listener queue. Possible values are
before,currentandafter.Defaults to:
'current'
Fires
Adds listeners to any Observable object (or Element) which are automatically removed when this Component is destroyed.
This method has been deprecated since 2.0
All listeners are now automatically managed where necessary. Simply use addListener.
Parameters
- object : Ext.mixin.Observable/HTMLElement
The item to which to add a listener/listeners.
- eventName : Object/String
The event name, or an object containing event name properties.
- fn : Function (optional)
If the
eventNameparameter was an event name, this is the handler function. - scope : Object (optional)
If the
eventNameparameter was an event name, this is the scope in which the handler function is executed. - options : Object (optional)
If the
eventNameparameter was an event name, this is the addListener options.
Call the original method that was previously overridden with override,
This method is deprecated as callParent does the same thing.
Ext.define('My.Cat', {
constructor: function() {
alert("I'm a cat!");
}
});
My.Cat.override({
constructor: function() {
alert("I'm going to be a cat!");
var instance = this.callOverridden();
alert("Meeeeoooowwww");
return instance;
}
});
var kitty = new My.Cat(); // alerts "I'm going to be a cat!"
// alerts "I'm a cat!"
// alerts "Meeeeoooowwww"
Parameters
- args : Array/Arguments
The arguments, either an array or the
argumentsobject from the current method, for example:this.callOverridden(arguments)
Returns
- Object
Returns the result of calling the overridden method
Call the "parent" method of the current method. That is the method previously overridden by derivation or by an override (see Ext.define).
Ext.define('My.Base', {
constructor: function (x) {
this.x = x;
},
statics: {
method: function (x) {
return x;
}
}
});
Ext.define('My.Derived', {
extend: 'My.Base',
constructor: function () {
this.callParent([21]);
}
});
var obj = new My.Derived();
alert(obj.x); // alerts 21
This can be used with an override as follows:
Ext.define('My.DerivedOverride', {
override: 'My.Derived',
constructor: function (x) {
this.callParent([x*2]); // calls original My.Derived constructor
}
});
var obj = new My.Derived();
alert(obj.x); // now alerts 42
This also works with static methods.
Ext.define('My.Derived2', {
extend: 'My.Base',
statics: {
method: function (x) {
return this.callParent([x*2]); // calls My.Base.method
}
}
});
alert(My.Base.method(10)); // alerts 10
alert(My.Derived2.method(10)); // alerts 20
Lastly, it also works with overridden static methods.
Ext.define('My.Derived2Override', {
override: 'My.Derived2',
statics: {
method: function (x) {
return this.callParent([x*2]); // calls My.Derived2.method
}
}
});
alert(My.Derived2.method(10)); // now alerts 40
To override a method and replace it and also call the superclass method, use callSuper. This is often done to patch a method to fix a bug.
Parameters
- args : Array/Arguments
The arguments, either an array or the
argumentsobject from the current method, for example:this.callParent(arguments)
Returns
- Object
Returns the result of calling the parent method
This method is used by an override to call the superclass method but bypass any overridden method. This is often done to "patch" a method that contains a bug but for whatever reason cannot be fixed directly.
Consider:
Ext.define('Ext.some.Class', {
method: function () {
console.log('Good');
}
});
Ext.define('Ext.some.DerivedClass', {
method: function () {
console.log('Bad');
// ... logic but with a bug ...
this.callParent();
}
});
To patch the bug in DerivedClass.method, the typical solution is to create an
override:
Ext.define('App.paches.DerivedClass', {
override: 'Ext.some.DerivedClass',
method: function () {
console.log('Fixed');
// ... logic but with bug fixed ...
this.callSuper();
}
});
The patch method cannot use callParent to call the superclass method since
that would call the overridden method containing the bug. In other words, the
above patch would only produce "Fixed" then "Good" in the console log, whereas,
using callParent would produce "Fixed" then "Bad" then "Good".
Parameters
- args : Array/Arguments
The arguments, either an array or the
argumentsobject from the current method, for example:this.callSuper(arguments)
Returns
- Object
Returns the result of calling the superclass method
Fires the specified event with the passed parameters and execute a function (action)
at the end if there are no listeners that return false.
Parameters
- eventName : String
The name of the event to fire.
- args : Array
Arguments to pass to handers.
- fn : Function
Action.
- scope : Object
Scope of fn.
Returns
Fires
Fires the specified event with the passed parameters (minus the event name, plus the options object passed
to addListener).
The first argument is the name of the event. Every other argument passed will be available when you listen for the event.
Example
Firstly, we set up a listener for our new event.
this.on('myevent', function(arg1, arg2, arg3, arg4, options, e) {
console.log(arg1); // true
console.log(arg2); // 2
console.log(arg3); // { test: 'foo' }
console.log(arg4); // 14
console.log(options); // the options added when adding the listener
console.log(e); // the event object with information about the event
});
And then we can fire off the event.
this.fireEvent('myevent', true, 2, { test: 'foo' }, 14);
An event may be set to bubble up an Observable parent hierarchy by calling enableBubble.
Parameters
- eventName : String
The name of the event to fire.

return instance;
}
});
var kitty = new My.Cat(); // alerts "I'm going to be a cat!"
// alerts "I'm a cat!"
// alerts "Meeeeoooowwww"
As of 2.1, direct use of this method is deprecated. Use Ext.define instead:
Ext.define('My.CatOverride', {
override: 'My.Cat',
constructor: function() {
alert("I'm going to be a cat!");
var instance = this.callParent(arguments);
alert("Meeeeoooowwww");
return instance;
}
});
The above accomplishes the same result but can be managed by the Ext.Loader which can properly order the override and its target class and the build process can determine whether the override is needed based on the required state of the target class (My.Cat).
This method has been deprecated since 2.1.0
Please use Ext.define instead
