FormsExample
Forms (Toolbars)The Form panel presents a set of form fields and provides convenient ways to load and save data. Usually a form panel just contains the set of fields you want to display, ordered inside the items configuration like this:
var form = Ext.create('Ext.form.Panel', {
fullscreen: true,
items: [
{
xtype: 'textfield',
name: 'name',
label: 'Name'
},
{
xtype: 'emailfield',
name: 'email',
label: 'Email'
},
{
xtype: 'passwordfield',
name: 'password',
label: 'Password'
}
]
});
Here we just created a simple form panel which could be used as a registration form to sign up to your service. We added a plain text field for the user's Name, an email field and finally a password field. In each case we provided a name config on the field so that we can identify it later on when we load and save data on the form.
Loading data
Using the form we created above, we can load data into it in a few different ways, the easiest is to use setValues:
form.setValues({
name: 'Ed',
email: 'ed@sencha.com',
password: 'secret'
});
It's also easy to load Model instances into a form - let's say we have a User model and want to load a particular instance into our form:
Ext.define('MyApp.model.User', {
extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
config: {
fields: ['name', 'email', 'password']
}
});
var ed = Ext.create('MyApp.model.User', {
name: 'Ed',
email: 'ed@sencha.com',
password: 'secret'
});
form.setRecord(ed);
Retrieving form data
Getting data out of the form panel is simple and is usually achieve via the getValues method:
var values = form.getValues();
//values now looks like this:
{
name: 'Ed',
email: 'ed@sencha.com',
password: 'secret'
}
It's also possible to listen to the change events on individual fields to get more timely notification of changes that the user is making. Here we expand on the example above with the User model, updating the model as soon as any of the fields are changed:
var form = Ext.create('Ext.form.Panel', {
listeners: {
'> field': {
change: function(field, newValue, oldValue) {
ed.set(field.getName(), newValue);
}
}
},
items: [
{
xtype: 'textfield',
name: 'name',
label: 'Name'
},
{
xtype: 'emailfield',
name: 'email',
label: 'Email'
},
{
xtype: 'passwordfield',
name: 'password',
label: 'Password'
}
]
});
The above used a new capability of Sencha Touch 2.0, which enables you to specify listeners on child components of any container. In this case, we attached a listener to the change event of each form field that is a direct child of the form panel. Our listener gets the name of the field that fired the change event, and updates our Model instance with the new value. For example, changing the email field in the form will update the Model's email field.
Submitting forms
There are a few ways to submit form data. In our example above we have a Model instance that we have updated, giving us the option to use the Model's save method to persist the changes back to our server, without using a traditional form submission. Alternatively, we can send a normal browser form submit using the method method:
form.submit({
url: 'url/to/submit/to',
method: 'POST',
success: function() {
alert('form submitted successfully!');
}
});
In this case we provided the url to submit the form to inside the submit call - alternatively you can just set the
url configuration when you create the form. We can specify other parameters (see method for a
full list), including callback functions for success and failure, which are called depending on whether or not the
form submission was successful. These functions are usually used to take some action in your app after your data
has been saved to the server side.
Config options
The item from the items collection that will be active first. This is usually only meaningful in a card layout, where only one item can be active at a time. If passes a string, it will be assumed to be a Ext.ComponentQuery selector.
Defaults to: 0
If specified, load and submit actions will be loaded and submitted via Ext.Direct. Methods which have been imported by Ext.direct.Manager can be specified here to load and submit forms. API methods may also be specified as strings and will be parsed into the actual functions when the first submit or load has occurred. Such as the following:
api: {
load: App.ss.MyProfile.load,
submit: App.ss.MyProfile.submit
}
api: {
load: 'App.ss.MyProfile.load',
submit: 'App.ss.MyProfile.submit'
}
Load actions can use paramOrder or paramsAsHash to customize how the load method
is invoked. Submit actions will always use a standard form submit. The formHandler configuration
(see Ext.direct.RemotingProvider#action) must be set on the associated server-side method which has
been imported by Ext.direct.Manager.
If true, child items will be destroyed as soon as they are removed
from this container.
Defaults to: true
The base CSS class to apply to this component's element. This will also be prepended to other elements within this component. To add specific styling for sub-classes, use the cls config.
Defaults to: Ext.baseCSSPrefix + 'form'
Overrides: Ext.Panel.baseCls
Optional hash of params to be sent (when standardSubmit configuration is false) on every submit.

A shortcut for setting a border style on the body element. The value can either be a number to be applied to all sides, or a normal CSS string describing borders.
This cfg has been deprecated since 2.0.0
A shortcut for setting a margin style on the body element. The value can either be a number to be applied to all sides, or a normal CSS string describing margins.
This cfg has been deprecated since 2.0.0
A shortcut for setting a padding style on the body element. The value can either be a number to be applied to all sides, or a normal CSS string describing padding.
This cfg has been deprecated since 2.0.0
The border width to use on this Component. Can be specified as a number (in which case all edges get the same border width) or a CSS string like '5 10 10 10'.
Please note that this will not add
a border-color or border-style CSS property to the component; you must do that manually using either CSS or
the style configuration.
Using style:
Ext.Viewport.add({
centered: true,
width: 100,
height: 100,
border: 3,
style: 'border-color: blue; border-style: solid;'
// ...
});
Using CSS:
Ext.Viewport.add({
centered: true,
width: 100,
height: 100,
border: 3,
cls: 'my-component'
// ...
});
And your CSS file:
.my-component {
border-color: red;
border-style: solid;
}
The absolute bottom position of this Component; must be a valid CSS length value, e.g: 300, 100px, 30%, etc.
Explicitly setting this value will make this Component become 'floating', which means its layout will no
longer be affected by the Container that it resides in.
The event name to bubble, or an Array of event names.

The configured element will automatically be added as the content of this component. When you pass a string, we expect it to be an element id. If the content element is hidden, we will automatically show it.
Enables you to easily control Components inside this Container by listening to their events and taking some action. For example, if we had a container with a nested Disable button, and we wanted to hide the Container when the Disable button is tapped, we could do this:
Ext.create('Ext.Container', {
control: {
'button[text=Disable]': {
tap: 'hideMe'
}
},
hideMe: function () {
this.hide();
}
});
We used a Ext.ComponentQuery selector to listen to the tap event on any
button anywhere inside the Container that has the text 'Disable'.
Whenever a Component matching that selector fires the tap event our hideMe function is called. hideMe is
called with scope: this (e.g. this is the Container instance).
Defaults to: {}
The default xtype of child Components to create in this Container when a child item is specified as a raw configuration object, rather than as an instantiated Component.
A set of default configurations to apply to all child Components in this Container. It's often useful to specify defaults when creating more than one items with similar configurations. For example here we can specify that each child is a panel and avoid repeating the xtype declaration for each one:
Ext.create('Ext.Container', {
defaults: {
xtype: 'panel'
},
items: [
{
html: 'Panel 1'
},
{
html: 'Panel 2'
}
]
});
The CSS class to add to the component when it is disabled
Defaults to: "x-item-disabled"
The dock position of this component in its container. Can be left, top, right or bottom.
Notes
You must use a HTML5 doctype for docked bottom to work. To do this, simply add the following code to the HTML file:
<!doctype html>
So your index.html file should look a little like this:
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<title>MY application title</title>
...

The submission form is generated but never added to the dom. It is a submittable version of your form panel, allowing for fields that are not simple textfields to be properly submitted to servers. It will also send values that are easier to parse with server side code.
If this is false we will attempt to subject the raw form inside the form panel.
Defaults to: true

Defaults to: "x-floating"
Force the component to take up 100% width and height available, by adding it to Ext.Viewport.
Force the component to take up 100% width and height available, by adding it to Ext.Viewport.
The height of this Component; must be a valid CSS length value, e.g: 300, 100px, 30%, etc.
By default, if this is not explicitly set, this Component's element will simply have its own natural size.
If set to auto, it will set the width to null meaning it will have its own natural size.
Animation effect to apply when the Component is being hidden. Typically you want to use an outbound animation type such as 'fadeOut' or 'slideOut'. For more animations, check the Ext.fx.Animation.type config.
When using a modal Component, setting this to true will hide the modal
mask and the Container when the mask is tapped on.
Overrides: Ext.Component.hideOnMaskTap
Optional HTML content to render inside this Component, or a reference to an existing element on the page.
Optional HTML content to render inside this Component, or a reference to an existing element on the page.
The unique id of this component instance.
It should not be necessary to use this configuration except for singleton objects in your application. Components created with an id may be accessed globally using Ext.getCmp.
Instead of using assigned ids, use the itemId config, and ComponentQuery which provides selector-based searching for Sencha Components analogous to DOM querying. The Ext.Container class contains shortcut methods to query its descendant Components by selector.
Note that this id will also be used as the element id for the containing HTML element that is rendered to the page for this component. This allows you to write id-based CSS rules to style the specific instance of this component uniquely, and also to select sub-elements using this component's id as the parent.
Note: to avoid complications imposed by a unique id also see itemId.
Defaults to an auto-assigned id.
An itemId can be used as an alternative way to get a reference to a component when no object reference is
available. Instead of using an id with Ext.getCmp, use itemId with
Ext.Container.getComponent which will retrieve itemId's or id's. Since itemId's are an
index to the container's internal MixedCollection, the itemId is scoped locally to the container - avoiding
potential conflicts with Ext.ComponentManager which requires a unique id.
Also see id, Ext.Container.query, Ext.Container.down and Ext.Container.child.
The child items to add to this Container. This is usually an array of Component configurations or instances, for example:
Ext.create('Ext.Container', {
items: [
{
xtype: 'panel',
html: 'This is an item'
}
]
});
Configuration for this Container's layout. Example:
Ext.create('Ext.Container', {
layout: {
type: 'hbox',
align: 'middle'
},
items: [
{
xtype: 'panel',
flex: 1,
style: 'background-color: red;'
},
{
xtype: 'panel',
flex: 2,
style: 'background-color: green'
}
]
});

The absolute left position of this Component; must be a valid CSS length value, e.g: 300, 100px, 30%, etc.
Explicitly setting this value will make this Component become 'floating', which means its layout will no
longer be affected by the Container that it resides in.
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().
The margin to use on this Component. Can be specified as a number (in which case all edges get the same margin) or a CSS string like '5 10 10 10'
A configuration to allow you to mask this container.
You can optionally pass an object block with and xtype of loadmask, and an optional message value to
display a loading mask. Please refer to the Ext.LoadMask component to see other configurations.
masked: {
xtype: 'loadmask',
message: 'My message'
}
Alternatively, you can just call the setter at any time with true/false to show/hide the mask:
setMasked(true); //show the mask
setMasked(false); //hides the mask
There are also two convenient methods, mask and unmask, to allow you to mask and unmask this container at any time.
Remember, the Ext.Viewport is always a container, so if you want to mask your whole application at anytime, can call:
Ext.Viewport.setMasked({
xtype: 'loadmask',
message: 'Hello'
});
The maximum height of this Component; must be a valid CSS length value, e.g: 300, 100px, 30%, etc.
If set to auto, it will set the width to null meaning it will have its own natural size.
Note that this config will not apply if the Component is 'floating' (absolutely positioned or centered)
The maximum width of this Component; must be a valid CSS length value, e.g: 300, 100px, 30%, etc.
If set to auto, it will set the width to null meaning it will have its own natural size.
Note that this config will not apply if the Component is 'floating' (absolutely positioned or centered)
The method which this form will be submitted. post or get.
Defaults to: 'post'

Defaults to: true
The padding to use on this Component. Can be specified as a number (in which case all edges get the same padding) or a CSS string like '5 10 10 10'
A list of params to be executed server side. Only used for the api load
configuration.
Specify the params in the order in which they must be executed on the server-side as either (1) an Array of String values, or (2) a String of params delimited by either whitespace, comma, or pipe. For example, any of the following would be acceptable:
paramOrder: ['param1','param2','param3']
paramOrder: 'param1 param2 param3'
paramOrder: 'param1,param2,param3'
paramOrder: 'param1|param2|param'
Only used for the api load configuration. If true, parameters will be sent as a
single hash collection of named arguments. Providing a paramOrder nullifies this
configuration.
An object or array of objects that will provide custom functionality for this component. The only requirement for a valid plugin is that it contain an init method that accepts a reference of type Ext.Component.
When a component is created, if any plugins are available, the component will call the init method on each plugin, passing a reference to itself. Each plugin can then call methods or respond to events on the component as needed to provide its functionality.
For examples of plugins, see Ext.plugin.PullRefresh and Ext.plugin.ListPaging
Example code
A plugin by alias:
Ext.create('Ext.dataview.List', {
config: {
plugins: 'listpaging',
itemTpl: '<div class="item">{title}</div>',
store: 'Items'
}
});
Multiple plugins by alias:
Ext.create('Ext.dataview.List', {
config: {
plugins: ['listpaging', 'pullrefresh'],
itemTpl: '<div class="item">{title}</div>',
store: 'Items'
}
});
Single plugin by class name with config options:
Ext.create('Ext.dataview.List', {
config: {
plugins: {
xclass: 'Ext.plugin.ListPaging', // Reference plugin by class
autoPaging: true
},
itemTpl: '<div class="item">{title}</div>',
store: 'Items'
}
});
Multiple plugins by class name with config options:
Ext.create('Ext.dataview.List', {
config: {
plugins: [
{
xclass: 'Ext.plugin.PullRefresh',
pullRefreshText: 'Pull to refresh...'
},
{
xclass: 'Ext.plugin.ListPaging',
autoPaging: true
}
],
itemTpl: '<div class="item">{title}</div>',
store: 'Items'
}
});
The model instance of this form. Can by dynamically set at any time.
Overrides: Ext.Component.record
Optional element to render this Component to. Usually this is not needed because a Component is normally full screen or automatically rendered inside another Container
The absolute right position of this Component; must be a valid CSS length value, e.g: 300, 100px, 30%, etc.
Explicitly setting this value will make this Component become 'floating', which means its layout will no
longer be affected by the Container that it resides in.
Configuration options to make this Container scrollable. Acceptable values are:
'horizontal','vertical','both'to enabling scrolling for that direction.true/falseto explicitly enable/disable scrolling.
Alternatively, you can give it an object which is then passed to the scroller instance:
scrollable: {
direction: 'vertical',
directionLock: true
}
Please look at the Ext.scroll.Scroller documentation for more example on how to use this.
This cfg has been deprecated since 2.0.0
Please use the scrollable configuration.
Returns
- Ext.scroll.View
The scroll view.
Overrides: Ext.Component.scroll
Possible values are true, false, and null. The true value indicates that users can scroll the panel. The false value disables scrolling, but developers can enable it in the app. The null value indicates that the object cannot be scrolled and that scrolling cannot be enabled for this object.
Example: title: 'Sliders', xtype: 'formpanel', iconCls: Ext.filterPlatform('blackberry') ? 'list' : null, scrollable: true, items: [ ...
Defaults to: {translatable: {translationMethod: 'scrollposition'}}
Returns
- Ext.scroll.View

Optional CSS styles that will be rendered into an inline style attribute when the Component is rendered.
You can pass either a string syntax:
style: 'background:red'
Or by using an object:
style: {
background: 'red'
}
When using the object syntax, you can define CSS Properties by using a string:
style: {
'border-left': '1px solid red'
}
Although the object syntax is much easier to read, we suggest you to use the string syntax for better performance.
The class that is added to the content target when you set styleHtmlContent to true.
Defaults to: "x-html"
true to automatically style the HTML inside the content target of this component (body for panels).
Defaults to: false
When this is set to true, the form will automatically submit itself whenever the action
event fires on a field in this form. The action event usually fires whenever you press
go or enter inside a textfield.
Defaults to: false
The absolute top position of this Component; must be a valid CSS length value, e.g: 300, 100px, 30%, etc.
Explicitly setting this value will make this Component become 'floating', which means its layout will no
longer be affected by the Container that it resides in.

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)

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.

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)

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

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.
Significantly improve instantiation time for Component with multiple references Ext.Element instance of the reference domNode is only created the very first time it's ever used.
Parameters
Used to handle joining of a record to a tpl
Fires
Used to handle joining of a record to a tpl
Fires
Animates to the supplied activeItem with a specified animation. Currently this only works
with a Card layout. This passed animation will override any default animations on the
container, for a single card switch. The animation will be destroyed when complete.
Parameters

The item or item index to make active.
- animation : Object/Ext.fx.layout.Card
Card animation configuration or instance.
Fires
Changes the masked configuration when its setter is called, which will convert the value into a proper object/instance of Ext.Mask/Ext.LoadMask. If a mask already exists, it will use that instead.
Parameters
- masked : Boolean/Object/Ext.Mask/Ext.LoadMask
Returns
Fires
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)

You can put a '?' at the end of the alignment string to constrain the floating element to the Viewport
// show `panel` by `button` using the default positioning (auto fit)
panel.showBy(button);
// align the top left corner of `panel` with the top right corner of `button` (constrained to viewport)
panel.showBy(button, "tl-tr?");
// align the bottom right corner of `panel` with the center left edge of `button` (not constrained by viewport)
panel.showBy(button, "br-cl");

});
My.cool.Class.getName(); // 'My.cool.Class'
Returns
- String
className
Override members of this class. Overridden methods can be invoked via callParent.
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.callParent(arguments);
alert("Meeeeoooowwww");
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
