Parameters:
Name Type Description

Methods


buildCell(row, dom)

Creates the cell's contents by calling toString on the row's proposed value
or the current value if there is no proposal. HTML will be safely escaped.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
row module:nmodule/webEditors/rc/wb/table/model/Row
dom JQuery
Inherited From:
Returns:
Type
Promise

coalesceRows(rows)

Given the set of rows to be edited, coalesce their values into one single
value to load into an editor.

By default, this will simply read the proposed value from the first row.
This is appropriate for a use case where one value will be entered and
written back to all edited components.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
rows Array.<module:nmodule/webEditors/rc/wb/table/model/Row>
Inherited From:
Throws:

if rows array not given, or values from rows are not all
of the same type

Type
Error
Returns:

value coalesced from the given rows

Type
*

commit(value, row [, params])

Renames the row's Component subject.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description
value String

the new name

row module:nmodule/webEditors/rc/wb/table/model/Row
params Object <optional>
Properties
Name Type Argument Description
batch baja.comm.Batch <optional>
Overrides:
Returns:

promise to be resolved when the component has
been renamed.

Type
Promise

destroyCell(row, dom)

Called when the table is destroying the DOM element built for a cell in this column. This
gives a Column implementation the chance to clean up any resources that might have been
created during the earlier call to #buildCell, perhaps destroying a widget in the cell,
for example. As with #buildCell, if this completes synchronously and doesn't return a
Promise, the caller must wrap this in a call to Promise.resolve().

Parameters:
Name Type Description
row module:nmodule/webEditors/rc/wb/table/model/Row
dom jQuery
Inherited From:
Returns:
Type
Promise | *

getColumnIcon()

Return object.png.

Overrides:
Returns:
Type
String

getConfigFor(rows)

For more than one row, instantiate a DisplayOnlyEditor.

getProposedValueFor(row)

Get the currently proposed value for the given row. If no value proposed
yet, will return the actual column value (getValueFor).

Parameters:

isEditorSuitable(editor, rows)

We can't set multiple components to the same name. So if editing more than
one row, we need the editor to be a DisplayOnlyEditor.

rows Array.<module:nmodule/webEditors/rc/wb/table/model/Row>
Overrides:
Returns:

true if more than one row and it's a
DisplayOnlyEditor, or if it's only one row and it's editable

Type
boolean

isHidable()

Return true if the column should available in the table's show/hide context menu.
Defaults to true.

Inherited From:
Returns:
Type
Boolean

isReadonly()

Return true if the column is readonly.

Inherited From:
Returns:
Type
Boolean

isSortable()

Returns a boolean indicating whether the column should not be sortable via the table headings.
Defaults to true.

Inherited From:
Returns:
Type
Boolean

isUnseen()

Return true if the column is unseen.

Boolean

mgrValidate(model, data [, params])

Allows this column to validate proposed changes.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description
model module:nmodule/webEditors/rc/wb/mgr/model/MgrModel

the model to which we're about to apply changes.

data Array

an array of proposed changes to this column, one per
row in the MgrModel. If a value in this array is null, no change has
been proposed for that row.

params Object <optional>
Properties
Name Type Argument Description
editor module:nmodule/webEditors/rc/fe/baja/BaseEditor <optional>

the editor from which the proposed values were read. Note that the editor
may have been used to edit other rows, so the editor's current value may
not match the proposed new values.

Inherited From:
Returns:

promise that resolves by default

Type
Promise
Example

Validating this column may require that I examine the changes I'm about to make to other columns as well.

MyMgrColumn.prototype.mgrValidate = function (model, data, params) {
  var that = this,
      rows = model.getRows(),
      otherColumn = model.getColumn('otherColumn');

  //search through all MgrModel rows, and check to see that my proposed
  //change is compatible with the proposed change to another column.
  //say, i'm a "password" column, and the other column is a "password
  //scheme" column - i need to make sure that the proposed password is
  //considered valid by the proposed password scheme.

  for (var i = 0; i < rows.length; i++) {
    var row = rows[i],
        myValue = data[i],
        otherValue = otherColumn.getProposedValueFor(row);

    if (myValue === null) {
      //no changes proposed for this row, so nothing to validate.
    }

    if (!isCompatible(myValue, otherValue)) {
      return Promise.reject(new Error('incompatible values'));
    }
  }
};

propose(value, row)

Should read the value and "tentatively" apply it to the
selected row. In most cases this will be setting some temporary data
for display-only purposes.

By default, will set some temporary data on the row using the column's
name as a key.
