Methods

`_addAttrs`

(

cfgs
values
lazy

)

private

Inherited from AttributeCore: attribute/js/AttributeCore.js:854

Implementation behind the public addAttrs method. This method is invoked directly by get if it encounters a scenario in which an attribute's valueFn attempts to obtain the value an attribute in the same group of attributes, which has not yet been added (on demand initialization).

Parameters:

cfgs Object
An object with attribute name/configuration pairs.
values Object
An object with attribute name/value pairs, defining the initial values to apply. Values defined in the cfgs argument will be over-written by values in this argument unless defined as read only.
lazy Boolean
Whether or not to delay the intialization of these attributes until the first call to get/set. Individual attributes can over-ride this behavior by defining a lazyAdd configuration property in their configuration. See addAttr.

`_addLazyAttr`

(

name
[lazyCfg]

)

private

Inherited from AttributeCore: attribute/js/AttributeCore.js:360

Finishes initializing an attribute which has been lazily added.

Parameters:

name Object
The name of the attribute
[lazyCfg] Object optional
Optional config hash for the attribute. This is added for performance along the critical path, where the calling method has already obtained lazy config from state.

`_addOutOfOrder`

(

name
cfg

)

private

Inherited from AttributeCore: attribute/js/AttributeCore.js:527

Utility method used by get/set to add attributes encountered out of order when calling addAttrs(). For example, if: this.addAttrs({ foo: { setter: function() { // make sure this bar is available when foo is added this.get("bar"); } }, bar: { value: ... } });

Parameters:

name String
attribute name
cfg Object
attribute configuration

`_afterActiveViewChange`

(

)

protected

Inherited from App.Base: app/js/app-base.js:819

Available since 3.5.0

Handles the application's activeViewChange event (which is fired when the activeView attribute changes) by detaching the old view, attaching the new view. The activeView attribute is read-only, so the public API to change its value is through the showView() method.

Parameters:

e EventFacade

`_afterContainerChange`

() protected

Inherited from View: app/js/view.js:357

Available since 3.5.0

Handles containerChange events. Detaches event handlers from the old container (if any) and attaches them to the new container. Right now the container attr is initOnly so this event should only ever fire the first time the container is created, but in the future (once Y.App can handle it) we may allow runtime container changes.

`_afterHistoryChange`

(

)

protected

Inherited from Router: app/js/router.js:1600

Handles history:change and hashchange events.

Parameters:

e EventFacade

`_aggregateAttrs`

(

allAttrs

)

Object private

Inherited from BaseCore: base/js/BaseCore.js:618

A helper method, used by _initHierarchyData to aggregate attribute configuration across the instances class hierarchy. The method will protect the attribute configuration value to protect the statically defined default value in ATTRS if required (if the value is an object literal, array or the attribute configuration has cloneDefaultValue set to shallow or deep).

Parameters:

allAttrs Array
An array of ATTRS definitions across classes in the hierarchy (subclass first, Base last)

Returns:

Object: The aggregate set of ATTRS definitions for the instance

`_attachView`

(

view
prepend=false

)

protected

Inherited from App.Base: app/js/app-base.js:434

Available since 3.5.0

Helper method to attach the view instance to the application by making the app a bubble target of the view, append the view to the viewContainer, and assign it to the instance property of the associated view info metadata.

Parameters:

view View
View to attach.
prepend=false Boolean
Whether the view should be prepended instead of appended to the viewContainer.

`_attrCfgHash`

() private

Inherited from BaseCore: base/js/BaseCore.js:581

[options] Object optional
Additional options to configure the navigation. These are mixed into the navigate event facade.
- [replace] Boolean optional
  
  Whether or not the current history entry will be replaced, or a new entry will be created. Will default to true if the specified url is the same as the current URL.
- [force] Boolean optional
  
  Whether the enhanced navigation should occur even in browsers without HTML5 history. Will default to true when serverRouting is falsy.

`_normalizePath`

(

path

)

String protected

Inherited from Router: app/js/router.js:1234

Available since 3.5.0

Returns a normalized path, ridding it of any '..' segments and properly handling leading and trailing slashes.

Parameters:

path String
URL path to normalize.

Returns:

String: Normalized path.

`_normAttrVals`

(

valueHash

)

Object private

Inherited from AttributeCore: attribute/js/AttributeCore.js:915

Utility method to normalize attribute values. The base implementation simply merges the hash to protect the original.

Parameters:

valueHash Object
An object with attribute name/value pairs

Returns:

Object: An object literal with 2 properties - "simple" and "complex", containing simple and complex attribute values respectively keyed by the top level attribute name, or null, if valueHash is falsey.

`_onLinkClick`

(

)

protected

Inherited from PjaxBase: pjax/js/pjax-base.js:316

Available since 3.5.0

Handler for delegated link-click events which match the linkSelector. This will attempt to enhance the navigation to the link element's href by passing the URL to the _navigate() method. When the navigation is being enhanced, the default action is prevented. If the user clicks a link with the middle/right mouse buttons, or is holding down the Ctrl or Command keys, this method's behavior is not applied and allows the native behavior to occur. Similarly, if the router is not capable or handling the URL because no route-handlers match, the link click will behave natively.

Parameters:

e EventFacade

Returns:

Object: A protected version of the attrs argument.

`_publish`

(

fullType
etOpts
ceOpts

)

CustomEvent private

Inherited from EventTarget: event-custom/js/event-target.js:588

The low level event publish implementation. It expects all the massaging to have been done outside of this method. e.g. the type to fullType conversion. It's designed to be a fast path publish, which can be used by critical code paths to improve performance.

Parameters:

fullType String
The prefixed type of the event to publish.
etOpts Object
The EventTarget specific configuration to mix into the published event.
ceOpts Object
The publish specific configuration to mix into the published event.

Returns:

`_queue`

() protected chainable

Inherited from Router: app/js/router.js:1336

Queues up a _save() call to run after all previously-queued calls have finished. This is necessary because if we make multiple _save() calls before the first call gets dispatched, then both calls will dispatch to the last call's URL. All arguments passed to _queue() will be passed on to _save() when the queued function is executed.

`_resolvePath`

(

path

)

String protected

Inherited from Router: app/js/router.js:1381

Available since 3.5.0

Returns the normalized result of resolving the path against the current path. Falsy values for path will return just the current path.

Parameters:

path String
URL path to resolve.

Returns:

String: Resolved path.

`_resolveURL`

(

url

)

String protected

Inherited from Router: app/js/router.js:1403

Available since 3.5.0

Resolves the specified URL against the current URL. This method resolves URLs like a browser does and will always return an absolute URL. When the specified URL is already absolute, it is assumed to be fully resolved and is simply returned as is. Scheme-relative URLs are prefixed with the current protocol. Relative URLs are giving the current URL's origin and are resolved and normalized against the current path root.

Parameters:

url String
URL to resolve.

Returns:

String: Resolved URL.

`_save`

(

[url]
[replace=false]

)

protected chainable

Inherited from Router but overwritten in app/js/app-base.js:706

Will either save a history entry using pushState() or the location hash, or gracefully-degrade to sending a request to the server causing a full-page reload. Overrides Router's _save() method to preform graceful-degradation when the app's serverRouting is true and html5 is false by updating the full URL via standard assignment to window.location or by calling window.location.replace(); both of which will cause a request to the server resulting in a full-page reload. Otherwise this will just delegate off to Router's _save() method allowing the client-side enhanced routing to occur.

Parameters:

[url] String optional
URL for the history entry.
[replace=false] Boolean optional
If true, the current history entry will be replaced instead of a new one being added.

Available since 3.5.0

Performs the actual change of this app's activeView by attaching the newView to this app, and detaching the oldView from this app using any specified options. The newView is attached to the app by rendering it to the viewContainer, and making this app a bubble target of its events. The oldView is detached from the app by removing it from the viewContainer, and removing this app as a bubble target for its events. The oldView will either be preserved or properly destroyed. **Note:** The activeView attribute is read-only and can be changed by calling the showView() method.

Parameters:

The View which is now this app's activeView.
[oldView] View optional
The View which was this app's activeView.
[options] Object optional
Optional object containing any of the following properties:
- [callback] Function optional
  
  Optional callback function to call after new activeView is ready to use, the function will be passed:

  Whether the view should be rendered. Note: If no value is specified, a view instance will only be rendered if it's newly created by this method.
- [update=false] Boolean optional
  
  Whether an existing view should have its attributes updated by passing the config object to its setAttrs() method. Note: This option does not have an effect if the view instance is created as a result of calling this method.

`_upgradeURL`

(

url

)

String protected

Inherited from Router: app/js/router.js:1555

Available since 3.5.0

Upgrades a hash-based URL to a full-path URL, if necessary. The specified url will be upgraded if its of the same origin as the current URL and has a path-like hash. URLs that don't need upgrading will be returned as-is.

Parameters:

url String
The URL to upgrade from hash-based to full-path.

Returns:

String: The upgraded URL, or the specified URL untouched.

Example:

app._upgradeURL('http://example.com/#/foo/'); // => 'http://example.com/foo/';

`addAttr`

(

name
config
lazy

)

Object chainable

Inherited from AttributeCore: attribute/js/AttributeCore.js:157

Adds an attribute with the provided configuration to the host object.

The config argument object supports the following properties:

value <Any>

The initial value to set on the attribute

valueFn <Function | String>

A function, which will return the initial value to set on the attribute. This is useful for cases where the attribute configuration is defined statically, but needs to reference the host instance ("this") to obtain an initial value. If both the value and valueFn properties are defined, the value returned by the valueFn has precedence over the value property, unless it returns undefined, in which case the value property is used.

valueFn can also be set to a string, representing the name of the instance method to be used to retrieve the value.

readOnly <boolean>

Whether or not the attribute is read only. Attributes having readOnly set to true cannot be modified by invoking the set method.

writeOnce <boolean> or <string>

Whether or not the attribute is "write once". Attributes having writeOnce set to true, can only have their values set once, be it through the default configuration, constructor configuration arguments, or by invoking set.

The writeOnce attribute can also be set to the string "initOnly", in which case the attribute can only be set during initialization (when used with Base, this means it can only be set during construction)

setter <Function | String>

The setter function used to massage or normalize the value passed to the set method for the attribute. The value returned by the setter will be the final stored value. Returning Attribute.INVALID_VALUE, from the setter will prevent the value from being stored.

setter can also be set to a string, representing the name of the instance method to be used as the setter function.

getter <Function | String>

The getter function used to massage or normalize the value returned by the get method for the attribute. The value returned by the getter function is the value which will be returned to the user when they invoke get.

getter can also be set to a string, representing the name of the instance method to be used as the getter function.

validator <Function | String>

The validator function invoked prior to setting the stored value. Returning false from the validator function will prevent the value from being stored.

validator can also be set to a string, representing the name of the instance method to be used as the validator function.

lazyAdd <boolean>

Whether or not to delay initialization of the attribute until the first call to get/set it. This flag can be used to over-ride lazy initialization on a per attribute basis, when adding multiple attributes through the addAttrs method.

The setter, getter and validator are invoked with the value and name passed in as the first and second arguments, and with the context ("this") set to the host object.

Configuration properties outside of the list mentioned above are considered private properties used internally by attribute, and are not intended for public use.

Parameters:

name String
The name of the attribute.
config Object
An object with attribute configuration property/value pairs, specifying the configuration for the attribute.
NOTE: The configuration object is modified when adding an attribute, so if you need to protect the original values, you will need to merge the object.
lazy Boolean
(optional) Whether or not to add this attribute lazily (on the first call to get/set).

Returns:

Object: A reference to the host object.

`addAttrs`

(

cfgs
values
lazy

)

Object chainable

Inherited from AttributeCore: attribute/js/AttributeCore.js:823

Configures a group of attributes, and sets initial values.

NOTE: This method does not isolate the configuration object by merging/cloning. The caller is responsible for merging/cloning the configuration object if required.

Parameters:

cfgs Object
An object with attribute name/configuration pairs.
values Object
An object with attribute name/value pairs, defining the initial values to apply. Values defined in the cfgs argument will be over-written by values in this argument unless defined as read only.
lazy Boolean
Whether or not to delay the intialization of these attributes until the first call to get/set. Individual attributes can over-ride this behavior by defining a lazyAdd configuration property in their configuration. See addAttr.

Returns:

Object: A reference to the host object.

`addTarget`

(

)

chainable

Inherited from EventTarget: event-custom/js/event-facade.js:496

Node

Inherited from View: app/js/view.js:233

Creates and returns a container node for this view. By default, the container is created from the HTML template specified in the containerTemplate property, and is _not_ added to the DOM automatically. You may override this method to customize how the container node is created (such as by rendering it from a custom template format). Your method must return a Y.Node instance.

Parameters:

EventTarget

Inherited from EventTarget: event-custom/js/event-target.js:356

Detach one or more listeners the from the specified event

Parameters:

type String | Object
Either the handle to the subscriber or the type of event. If the type is not specified, it will attempt to remove the listener from all hosted events.
fn Function
The subscribed function to unsubscribe, if not supplied, all subscribers will be removed.
context Object
The custom object passed to subscribe. This is optional, but if supplied will be used to disambiguate multiple listeners that are the same (e.g., you subscribe many object using a function that lives on the prototype)

Returns:

EventTarget: the host

`detachAll`

(

type

)

Inherited from EventTarget: event-custom/js/event-target.js:479

Parameters:

type String
The type, or name of the event

`detachEvents`

() chainable

Inherited from View: app/js/view.js:253

Detaches DOM events that have previously been attached to the container by attachEvents().

`dispatch`

() chainable

Inherited from Router: app/js/router.js:244

Dispatches to the first route handler that matches the current URL, if any. If dispatch() is called before the ready event has fired, it will automatically wait for the ready event before dispatching. Otherwise it will dispatch immediately.

`fire`

(

type
arguments

)

Boolean

Inherited from EventTarget: event-custom/js/event-target.js:673

Fire a custom event by name. The callback functions will be executed from the context specified when the event was created, and with the following parameters. The first argument is the event type, and any additional arguments are passed to the listeners as parameters. If the first of these is an object literal, and the event is configured to emit an event facade, that object is mixed into the event facade and the facade is provided in place of the original object. If the custom event object hasn't been created, then the event hasn't been published and it has no subscribers. For performance sake, we immediate exit in this case. This means the event won't bubble, so if the intention is that a bubble target be notified, the event must be published on this object first.

Parameters:

type String | Object
The type of the event, or an object that contains a 'type' property.
arguments Object
an arbitrary set of parameters to pass to the handler. If the first of these is an object literal and the event is configured to emit an event facade, the event facade will replace that parameter after the properties the object literal contains are copied to the event facade.

Returns:

Boolean: True if the whole lifecycle of the event went through, false if at any point the event propagation was halted.

`get`

(

name

)

Any

Inherited from AttributeCore: attribute/js/AttributeCore.js:331

`loadContent`

(

req
res
next

)

Inherited from PjaxContent: pjax/js/pjax-content.js:83

Available since 3.7.0

Pjax route middleware to load content from a server. This makes an Ajax request for the requested URL, parses the returned content and puts it on the route's response object. This is route middleware and not intended to be the final callback for a route. This will add the following information to the route's request and response objects: - req.ioURL: The full URL that was used to make the Y.io() XHR. This may contain "pjax=1" if the addPjaxParam option is set. - res.content: An object containing node and title properties for the content extracted from the server's response. See getContent() for more details. - res.ioResponse: The full Y.io() response object. This is useful if you need access to the XHR's response status or HTTP headers.

Parameters:

req Object
Request object.
res Object
Response Object.
next Function
Function to pass control to the next route callback.

Example:

router.route('/foo/', 'loadContent', function (req, res, next) {
    Y.one('container').setHTML(res.content.node);
    Y.config.doc.title = res.content.title;
});

`match`

(

path

)

Object

Inherited from Router: app/js/router.js:328

Returns an array of route objects that match the specified URL path. If this router has a root, then the specified path _must_ be semantically within the root path to match any routes. This method is called internally to determine which routes match the current path whenever the URL changes. You may override it if you want to customize the route matching logic, although this usually shouldn't be necessary. Each returned route object has the following properties: * callback: A function or a string representing the name of a function this router that should be executed when the route is triggered. * keys: An array of strings representing the named parameters defined in the route's path specification, if any. * path: The route's path specification, which may be either a string or a regex. * regex: A regular expression version of the route's path specification. This regex is used to determine whether the route matches a given path.

Parameters:

path String
URL path to match. This should be an absolute path that starts with a slash: "/".

Returns:

Object: Array of route objects that match the specified path.

Example:

router.route('/foo', function () {});
router.match('/foo');
// => [{callback: ..., keys: [], path: '/foo', regex: ...}]

The properties which can be modified through this interface are limited to the following subset of attributes, which can be safely modified after a value has already been set on the attribute:

readOnly;
writeOnce;
broadcast; and
getter.

Note: New attributes cannot be added using this interface. New attributes must be added using {{#crossLink "AttributeCore/addAttr:method"}}addAttr{{/crossLink}}, or an appropriate manner for a class which utilises Attributes (e.g. the {{#crossLink "Base/ATTRS:property"}}ATTRS{{/crossLink}} property in {{#crossLink "Base"}}Base{{/crossLink}}).

Parameters:

name String
The name of the attribute whose configuration is to be updated.
config Object
An object with configuration property/value pairs, specifying the configuration properties to modify.

`navigate`

(

url
[options]

)

Inherited from PjaxBase but overwritten in app/js/app-base.js:234

Navigates to the specified URL if there is a route handler that matches. In browsers capable of using HTML5 history or when serverRouting is falsy, the navigation will be enhanced by firing the navigate event and having the app handle the "request". When serverRouting is true, non-HTML5 browsers will navigate to the new URL via a full page reload. When there is a route handler for the specified URL and it is being navigated to, this method will return true, otherwise it will return false. **Note:** The specified URL _must_ be of the same origin as the current URL, otherwise an error will be logged and navigation will not occur. This is intended as both a security constraint and a purposely imposed limitation as it does not make sense to tell the app to navigate to a URL on a different scheme, host, or port.

Parameters:

url String
The URL to navigate to. This must be of the same origin as the current URL.
[options] Object optional
Additional options to configure the navigation. These are mixed into the navigate event facade.
- [replace] Boolean optional
  
  Whether or not the current history entry will be replaced, or a new entry will be created. Will default to true if the specified url is the same as the current URL.
- [force] Boolean optional
  
  Whether the enhanced navigation should occur even in browsers without HTML5 history. Will default to true when serverRouting is falsy.

EventHandle

Inherited from EventTarget: event-custom/js/event-target.js:188

Subscribe a callback function to a custom event fired by this object or from an object that bubbles its events to this object. this.on("change", this._onChange, this); Callback functions for events published with emitFacade = true will receive an EventFacade as the first argument (typically named "e"). These callbacks can then call e.preventDefault() to disable the behavior published to that event's defaultFn. See the EventFacade API for all available properties and methods. Subscribers to non-emitFacade events will receive the arguments passed to fire() after the event name. To subscribe to multiple events at once, pass an object as the first argument, where the key:value pairs correspond to the eventName:callback. this.on({ "attrChange" : this._onAttrChange, "change" : this._onChange }); You can also pass an array of event names as the first argument to subscribe to all listed events with the same callback. this.on([ "change", "attrChange" ], this._onChange); Returning false from a callback is supported as an alternative to calling e.preventDefault(); e.stopPropagation();. However, it is recommended to use the event methods whenever possible.

Parameters:

type String
The name of the event
fn Function
The callback to execute in response to the event
[context] Object optional
Override this object in callback
[arg*] Any optional
0..n additional arguments to supply to the subscriber

Returns:

EventHandle: A subscription handle capable of detaching that subscription

`param`

(

name
handler

)

chainable

Inherited from Router: app/js/router.js:383

Available since 3.12.0

Adds a handler for a route param specified by _name_. Param handlers can be registered via this method and are used to validate/format values of named params in routes before dispatching to the route's handler functions. Using param handlers allows routes to defined using string paths which allows for req.params to use named params, but still applying extra validation or formatting to the param values parsed from the URL. If a param handler regex or function returns a value of false, null, undefined, or NaN, the current route will not match and be skipped. All other return values will be used in place of the original param value parsed from the URL.

Parameters:

name String
Name of the param used in route paths.
handler Function | RegExp
Function to invoke or regular expression to exec() during route dispatching whose return value is used as the new param value. Values of false, null, undefined, or NaN will cause the current route to not match and be skipped. When a function is specified, it will be invoked in the context of this instance with the following parameters:
- value String
  
  The current param value parsed from the URL.
- name String
  
  The name of the param.

Example:

router.param('postId', function (value) {
    return parseInt(value, 10);
});

router.param('username', /^\w+$/);

router.route('/posts/:postId', function (req) {
    Y.log('Post: ' + req.params.id);
});

router.route('/users/:username', function (req) {
    // req.params.username is an array because the result of calling
    // exec() on the regex is assigned as the param's value.
    Y.log('User: ' + req.params.username[0]);
});

router.route('*', function () {
    Y.log('Catch-all no routes matched!');
});

// URLs which match routes:
router.save('/posts/1');     // => "Post: 1"
router.save('/users/ericf'); // => "User: ericf"

// URLs which do not match routes because params fail validation:
router.save('/posts/a');            // => "Catch-all no routes matched!"
router.save('/users/ericf,rgrove'); // => "Catch-all no routes matched!"

`render`

() chainable

Inherited from View but overwritten in app/js/app-base.js:266

Renders this application by appending the viewContainer node to the container node if it isn't already a child of the container, and the activeView will be appended the view container, if it isn't already. You should call this method at least once, usually after the initialization of your app instance so the proper DOM structure is setup and optionally append the container to the DOM if it's not there already. You may override this method to customize the app's rendering, but you should expect that the viewContainer's contents will be modified by the app for the purpose of rendering the activeView when it changes.

`replace`

(

[url]

)

chainable

Inherited from Router: app/js/router.js:489

Replaces the current browser history entry with a new one, and dispatches to the first matching route handler, if any. Behind the scenes, this method uses HTML5 pushState() in browsers that support it (or the location hash in older browsers and IE) to change the URL. The specified URL must share the same origin (i.e., protocol, host, and port) as the current page, or an error will occur.

Parameters:

[url] String optional
URL to set. This URL needs to be of the same origin as the current URL. This can be a URL relative to the router's root attribute. If no URL is specified, the page's current URL will be used.

Example:

// Starting URL: http://example.com/

router.replace('/path/');
// New URL: http://example.com/path/

router.replace('/path?foo=bar');
// New URL: http://example.com/path?foo=bar

router.replace('/');
// New URL: http://example.com/

`reset`

Inherited from AttributeExtras: attribute/js/AttributeExtras.js:100

Resets the attribute (or all attributes) to its initial value, as long as the attribute is not readOnly, or writeOnce.

Parameters:

name String
Optional. The name of the attribute to reset. If omitted, all attributes are reset.

Returns:

Object: A reference to the host object.

`route`

(

route
callbacks

)

chainable

Inherited from Router: app/js/router.js:523

Adds a route handler for the specified route. The route parameter may be a string or regular expression to represent a URL path, or a route object. If it's a string (which is most common), it may contain named parameters: :param will match any single part of a URL path (not including / characters), and *param will match any number of parts of a URL path (including / characters). These named parameters will be made available as keys on the req.params object that's passed to route handlers. If the route parameter is a regex, all pattern matches will be made available as numbered keys on req.params, starting with 0 for the full match, then 1 for the first subpattern match, and so on. Alternatively, an object can be provided to represent the route and it may contain a path property which is a string or regular expression which causes the route to be process as described above. If the route object already contains a regex or regexp property, the route will be considered fully-processed and will be associated with any callacks specified on the object and those specified as parameters to this method. **Note:** Any additional data contained on the route object will be preserved. Here's a set of sample routes along with URL paths that they match: * Route: /photos/:tag/:page * URL: /photos/kittens/1, params: {tag: 'kittens', page: '1'} * URL: /photos/puppies/2, params: {tag: 'puppies', page: '2'} * Route: /file/*path * URL: /file/foo/bar/baz.txt, params: {path: 'foo/bar/baz.txt'} * URL: /file/foo, params: {path: 'foo'} **Middleware**: Routes also support an arbitrary number of callback functions. This allows you to easily reuse parts of your route-handling code with different route. This method is liberal in how it processes the specified callbacks, you can specify them as separate arguments, or as arrays, or both. If multiple route match a given URL, they will be executed in the order they were added. The first route that was added will be the first to be executed. **Passing Control**: Invoking the next() function within a route callback will pass control to the next callback function (if any) or route handler (if any). If a value is passed to next(), it's assumed to be an error, therefore stopping the dispatch chain, unless that value is: "route", which is special case and dispatching will skip to the next route handler. This allows middleware to skip any remaining middleware for a particular route.

Parameters:

route String | RegExp | Object
Route to match. May be a string or a regular expression, or a route object.
callbacks Array | Function | String multiple
Callback functions to call whenever this route is triggered. These can be specified as separate arguments, or in arrays, or both. If a callback is specified as a string, the named function will be called on this router instance.
- req Object
  
  Request object containing information about the request. It contains the following properties.
  - params Array | Object
    Captured parameters matched by the route path specification. If a string path was used and contained named parameters, then this will be a key/value hash mapping parameter names to their matched values. If a regex path was used, this will be an array of subpattern matches starting at index 0 for the full match, then 1 for the first subpattern match, and so on.
  - path String
    The current URL path.
  - pendingCallbacks Number
    Number of remaining callbacks the route handler has after this one in the dispatch chain.
  - pendingRoutes Number
    Number of matching routes after this one in the dispatch chain.
  - query Object
    Query hash representing the URL query string, if any. Parameter names are keys, and are mapped to parameter values.
  - route Object
    Reference to the current route object whose callbacks are being dispatched.
  - router Object
    Reference to this router instance.
  - src String
    What initiated the dispatch. In an HTML5 browser, when the back/forward buttons are used, this property will have a value of "popstate". When the dispath() method is called, the src will be "dispatch".
  - url String
    The full URL.
- res Object
  
  Response object containing methods and information that relate to responding to a request. It contains the following properties.
  - req Object
    Reference to the request object.
- next Function
  
  Function to pass control to the next callback or the next matching route if no more callbacks (middleware) exist for the current route handler. If you don't call this function, then no further callbacks or route handlers will be executed, even if there are more that match. If you do call this function, then the next callback (if any) or matching route handler (if any) will be called. All of these functions will receive the same req and res objects that were passed to this route (so you can use these objects to pass data along to subsequent callbacks and routes).
  - [err] String optional
    Optional error which will stop the dispatch chaining for this req, unless the value is "route", which is special cased to jump skip past any callbacks for the current route and pass control the next route handler.

Example:

router.route('/photos/:tag/:page', function (req, res, next) {
    Y.log('Current tag: ' + req.params.tag);
    Y.log('Current page number: ' + req.params.page);
});

// Using middleware.

router.findUser = function (req, res, next) {
    req.user = this.get('users').findById(req.params.user);
    next();
};

router.route('/users/:user', 'findUser', function (req, res, next) {
    // The findUser middleware puts the user object on the req.
    Y.log('Current user:' req.user.get('name'));
});

`save`

Inherited from Router: app/js/router.js:699

Saves a new browser history entry and dispatches to the first matching route handler, if any. Behind the scenes, this method uses HTML5 pushState() in browsers that support it (or the location hash in older browsers and IE) to change the URL and create a history entry. The specified URL must share the same origin (i.e., protocol, host, and port) as the current page, or an error will occur.

Parameters:

[url] String optional
URL to set. This URL needs to be of the same origin as the current URL. This can be a URL relative to the router's root attribute. If no URL is specified, the page's current URL will be used.

Example:

// Starting URL: http://example.com/

router.save('/path/');
// New URL: http://example.com/path/

router.save('/path?foo=bar');
// New URL: http://example.com/path?foo=bar

Inherited from App.Content: app/js/app-extensions/app-content.js:75

Available since 3.7.0

Sets this app's activeView attribute using the specified content. This provides an easy way to view-ify HTML content which should be shown as this app's active/visible view. This method will determine the appropriate view container node based on the specified content. By default, a new Y.View instance will be created unless options.view is specified. Under the hood, this method calls the showView() method, so refer to its docs for more information.

Parameters:

content HTMLElement | Node | String
The content to show, it may be provided as a selector string, a DOM element, or a Y.Node instance.
[options] Object optional
Optional objects containing any of the following properties in addition to any showView() options:
- [view] Object | String optional
  
  The name of a view defined in this app's views, or an object with the following properties:
  - name String
    The name of a view defined in this app's views.
  - [config] Object optional
    Optional configuration to use when creating the new view instance. This config object can also be used to update an existing or preserved view's attributes when options.update is true. **Note:** If a container is specified, it will be overridden by the content specified in the first argument.
[callback] Function optional
Optional callback function to call after the new activeView is ready to use. **Note:** this will override options.callback and it can be specified as either the second or third argument. The function will be passed the following:
- view View
  
  A reference to the new activeView.

chainable

Inherited from App.Base but overwritten in app/js/app-extensions/app-transitions.js:132

Available since 3.5.0

Sets which view is active/visible for the application. This will set the app's activeView attribute to the specified view. The view will be "attached" to this app, meaning it will be both rendered into this app's viewContainer node and all of its events will bubble to the app. The previous activeView will be "detached" from this app. When a string-name is provided for a view which has been registered on this app's views object, the referenced metadata will be used and the activeView will be set to either a preserved view instance, or a new instance of the registered view will be created using the specified config object passed-into this method. A callback function can be specified as either the third or fourth argument, and this function will be called after the new view becomes the activeView, is rendered to the viewContainer, and is ready to use.

Parameters:

view String | View
The name of a view defined in the views object, or a view instance which should become this app's activeView.
[config] Object optional
Optional configuration to use when creating a new view instance. This config object can also be used to update an existing or preserved view's attributes when options.update is true.
[options] Object optional
Optional object containing any of the following properties:
- [callback] Function optional
  
  Optional callback function to call after new activeView is ready to use, the function will be passed:
  - view View
    A reference to the new activeView.
- [prepend=false] Boolean optional
  
  Whether the view should be prepended instead of appended to the viewContainer.
- [render] Boolean optional
  
  Whether the view should be rendered. Note: If no value is specified, a view instance will only be rendered if it's newly created by this method.
- [transition] Boolean | String optional
  
  Optional transition override. A transition can be specified which will override the default, or false for no transition.
- [update=false] Boolean optional
  
  Whether an existing view should have its attributes updated by passing the config object to its setAttrs() method. Note: This option does not have an effect if the view instance is created as a result of calling this method.
[callback] Function optional
Optional callback Function to call after the new activeView is ready to use. **Note:** this will override options.callback and it can be specified as either the third or fourth argument. The function will be passed the following:
- view View
  
  A reference to the new activeView.

Example:

var app = new Y.App({
    views: {
        usersView: {
            // Imagine that Y.UsersView has been defined.
            type: Y.UsersView
        }
    },

    transitions: true,
    users      : new Y.ModelList()
});

app.route('/users/', function () {
    this.showView('usersView', {users: this.get('users')});
});

app.render();
app.navigate('/uses/');
// => Creates a new Y.UsersView and transitions to it.

Regex used to break up a URL string around the URL's path. Subpattern captures: 1. Origin, everything before the URL's path-part. 2. The URL's path-part. 3. The URL's query. 4. The URL's hash fragment.

`_regexUrlOrigin`

RegExp protected

Inherited from Router: app/js/router.js:165

Regex that matches everything before the path portion of a URL (the origin). This will be used to strip this part of the URL from a string when we only want the path.

`_regexUrlQuery`

RegExp protected

Inherited from Router: app/js/router.js:155

Regex that matches and captures the query portion of a URL, minus the preceding ? character, and discarding the hash portion of the URL if any.

`_routes`

Array protected

Inherited from Router: app/js/router.js:176

Collection of registered routes.

`_viewInfoMap`

Object protected

Inherited from App.Base: app/js/app-base.js:134

Available since 3.5.0

Map of view instance id (via Y.stamp()) to view-info object in views. This mapping is used to tie a specific view instance back to its metadata by adding a reference to the the related view info on the views object.

Default: {}

`containerTemplate`

String

Inherited from View: app/js/view.js:40

Available since 3.5.0

Template for this view's container.

Default: "<div/>"

`events`

Object

Inherited from View: app/js/view.js:50

Hash of CSS selectors mapped to events to delegate to elements matching those selectors. CSS selectors are relative to the container element. Events are attached to the container, and delegation is used so that subscribers are only notified of events that occur on elements inside the container that match the specified selectors. This allows the container's contents to be re- rendered as needed without losing event subscriptions. Event handlers can be specified either as functions or as strings that map to function names on this view instance or its prototype. The this object in event handlers will refer to this view instance. If you'd prefer this to be something else, use Y.bind() to bind a custom this object.

Default: {}

Example:

var view = new Y.View({
    events: {
        // Call this.toggle() whenever the element with the id
        // "toggle-button" is clicked.
        '#toggle-button': {click: 'toggle'},

        // Call this.hoverOn() when the mouse moves over any element
        // with the "hoverable" class, and this.hoverOff() when the
        // mouse moves out of any element with the "hoverable" class.
        '.hoverable': {
            mouseover: 'hoverOn',
            mouseout : 'hoverOff'
        }
    }
});

`name`

String deprecated

Inherited from BaseCore: base/js/BaseCore.js:297

Deprecated: Use this.constructor.NAME

The string used to identify the class of this object.

`template`

Mixed

Inherited from View: app/js/view.js:91

Template for this view's contents. This is a convenience property that has no default behavior of its own. It's only provided as a convention to allow you to store whatever you consider to be a template, whether that's an HTML string, a Y.Node instance, a Mustache template, or anything else your little heart desires. How this template gets used is entirely up to you and your custom render() method.

Default: ''

`transitions`

Object

Inherited from App.Transitions: app/js/app-extensions/app-transitions.js:94

Available since 3.5.0

Default transitions to use when the activeView changes. The following are types of changes for which transitions can be defined that correspond to the relationship between the new and previous activeView: * navigate: The default transition to use when changing the activeView of the application. * toChild: The transition to use when the new activeView is configured as a child of the previously active view via its parent property as defined in this app's views. * toParent: The transition to use when the new activeView is configured as the parent of the previously active view as defined in this app's views. **Note:** Transitions are an opt-in feature and will only be used in browsers which support native CSS3 transitions.

Default: { navigate: 'fade', toChild : 'slideLeft', toParent: 'slideRight' }

`views`

Object

Inherited from App.Base: app/js/app-base.js:76

Available since 3.5.0

Hash of view-name to metadata used to declaratively describe an application's views and their relationship with the app and its other views. The view metadata is composed of Objects keyed to a view-name that can have any or all of the following properties: * type: Function or a string representing the view constructor to use to create view instances. If a string is used, the constructor function is assumed to be on the Y object; e.g. "SomeView" -> Y.SomeView. * preserve: Boolean for whether the view instance should be retained. By default, the view instance will be destroyed when it is no longer the activeView. If true the view instance will simply be removed() from the DOM when it is no longer active. This is useful when the view is frequently used and may be expensive to re-create. * parent: String to another named view in this hash that represents the parent view within the application's view hierarchy; e.g. a "photo" view could have "album" has its parent view. This parent/child relationship is a useful cue for things like transitions. * instance: Used internally to manage the current instance of this named view. This can be used if your view instance is created up-front, or if you would rather manage the View lifecycle, but you probably should just let this be handled for you. If views are specified at instantiation time, the metadata in the views Object here will be used as defaults when creating the instance's views. Every Y.App instance gets its own copy of a views object so this Object on the prototype will not be polluted.

Default: {}

Example:

// Imagine that Y.UsersView and Y.UserView have been defined.
var app = new Y.App({
    views: {
        users: {
            type    : Y.UsersView,
            preserve: true
        },

        user: {
            type  : Y.UserView,
            parent: 'users'
        }
    }
});

Attributes

`activeView`

View readonly

Inherited from App.Base: app/js/app-base.js:837

Available since 3.5.0

The application's active/visible view. This attribute is read-only, to set the activeView use the showView() method.

Default: null

`addPjaxParam`

Boolean

Inherited from PjaxContent: pjax/js/pjax-content.js:204

Available since 3.5.0

If true, a "pjax=1" query parameter will be appended to all URLs requested via Pjax. Browsers ignore HTTP request headers when caching content, so if the same URL is used to request a partial Pjax page and a full page, the browser will cache them under the same key and may later load the cached partial page when the user actually requests a full page (or vice versa). To prevent this, we can add a bogus query parameter to the URL so that Pjax URLs will always be cached separately from non-Pjax URLs.

Default: true

`allowFallThrough`

Boolean

Inherited from PjaxBase: pjax/js/pjax-base.js:425

Available since 3.18.0

Whether to set window.location when calling navigate() if no routes match the specified URL.

Default: true

`anonymousUserId`

String readonly

Defined in Resources/public/js/apps/ez-platformuiapp.js:285

Stores the REST id of the configured anonymous user

`apiRoot`

String readonly

Defined in Resources/public/js/apps/ez-platformuiapp.js:245

The base URI to build the URI of the ajax request

Default: "/"

`assetRoot`

String readonly

Defined in Resources/public/js/apps/ez-platformuiapp.js:258

The root directory where to find the assets.

Default: "/"

`capi`

eZ.CAPI required readonly

Defined in Resources/public/js/apps/ez-platformuiapp.js:271

eZ Platform REST client

Default: null

`config`

Object | Undefined

Defined in Resources/public/js/apps/ez-platformuiapp.js:233

The application configuration. It is dispatched to the others application attributes/properties at build time.

`container`

HTMLElement | Node | String

Inherited from View but overwritten in app/js/app-base.js:855

Container node which represents the application's bounding-box, into which this app's content will be rendered. The container node serves as the host for all DOM events attached by the app. Delegation is used to handle events on children of the container, allowing the container's contents to be re-rendered at any time without losing event subscriptions. The default container is the <body> Node, but you can override this in a subclass, or by passing in a custom container config value at instantiation time. When container is overridden by a subclass or passed as a config option at instantiation time, it may be provided as a selector string, a DOM element, or a Y.Node instance. During initialization, this app's create() method will be called to convert the container into a Y.Node instance if it isn't one already and stamp it with the CSS class: "yui3-app". The container is not added to the page automatically. This allows you to have full control over how and when your app is actually rendered to the page.

Default: Y.one('body')

`contentCreationDefaultLanguageCode`

String readonly

Defined in Resources/public/js/apps/ez-platformuiapp.js:311

Default language code, as defined by the current siteaccess language config.

Default: "eng-GB"

`contentSelector`

String

Inherited from PjaxContent: pjax/js/pjax-content.js:226

Available since 3.5.0

CSS selector used to extract a specific portion of the content of a page loaded via Pjax. For example, if you wanted to load the page example.html but only use the content within an element with the id "pjax-content", you'd set contentSelector to "#pjax-content". If not set, the entire page will be used.

Default: null

`destroyed`

Boolean readonly

Inherited from BaseCore: base/js/BaseCore.js:212

Flag indicating whether or not this object has been through the destroy lifecycle phase.

Default: false

`html5`

Boolean

Inherited from Router but overwritten in app/js/app-base.js:890

Whether or not this browser is capable of using HTML5 history. This value is dependent on the value of serverRouting and will default accordingly. Setting this to false will force the use of hash-based history even on HTML5 browsers, but please don't do this unless you understand the consequences.

`initialized`

Boolean readonly

Inherited from BaseCore: base/js/BaseCore.js:198

Flag indicating whether or not this object has been through the init lifecycle phase.

Default: false

`interfaceLanguages`

Array readonly

Defined in Resources/public/js/apps/ez-platformuiapp.js:338

List of preferred languages in which the interface should be translated.

Default: ['en']

`linkSelector`

String | Function

Inherited from PjaxBase but overwritten in app/js/app-base.js:909

CSS selector string used to filter link click events so that only the links which match it will have the enhanced-navigation behavior of pjax applied. When a link is clicked and that link matches this selector, navigating to the link's href URL using the enhanced, pjax, behavior will be attempted; and the browser's default way to navigate to new pages will be the fallback. By default this selector will match _all_ links on the page.

Default: "a"

`localesMap`

Object readonly

Defined in Resources/public/js/apps/ez-platformuiapp.js:324

Holds the Locales conversion map between eZ Locale codes and POSIX ones. See locale.yml

Default: {}

`navigateOnHash`

Boolean

Inherited from PjaxBase: pjax/js/pjax-base.js:392

Available since 3.5.0

Whether navigating to a hash-fragment identifier on the current page should be enhanced and cause the navigate event to fire. By default Pjax allows the browser to perform its default action when a user is navigating within a page by clicking in-page links (e.g. <a href="#top">Top of page</a>) and does not attempt to interfere or enhance in-page navigation.

Default: false

`params`

Object

Inherited from Router: app/js/router.js:1671

Available since 3.12.0

Map of params handlers in the form: name -> RegExp | Function. If a param handler regex or function returns a value of false, null, undefined, or NaN, the current route will not match and be skipped. All other return values will be used in place of the original param value parsed from the URL. This attribute is intended to be used to set params at init time, or to completely reset all params after init. To add params after init without resetting all existing params, use the param() method.

Default: `{}`

`root`

String

Inherited from Router: app/js/router.js:1695

Absolute root path from which all routes should be evaluated. For example, if your router is running on a page at http://example.com/myapp/ and you add a route with the path /, your route will never execute, because the path will always be preceded by /myapp. Setting root to /myapp would cause all routes to be evaluated relative to that root URL, so the / route would then execute when the user browses to http://example.com/myapp/.

Default: `''`

Example:

router.set('root', '/myapp');
                    router.route('/foo', function () { ... });
                    
                    Y.log(router.hasRoute('/foo'));       // => false
                    Y.log(router.hasRoute('/myapp/foo')); // => true
                    
                    // Updates the URL to: "/myapp/foo"
                    router.save('/foo');

`routes`

Object

Inherited from Router: app/js/router.js:1723

Array of route objects. Each item in the array must be an object with the following properties in order to be processed by the router: * path: String or regex representing the path to match. See the docs for the route() method for more details. * callbacks: Function or a string representing the name of a function on this router instance that should be called when the route is triggered. An array of functions and/or strings may also be provided. See the docs for the route() method for more details. If a route object contains a regex or regexp property, or if its path is a regular express, then the route will be considered to be fully-processed. Any fully-processed routes may contain the following properties: * regex: The regular expression representing the path to match, this property may also be named regexp for greater compatibility. * keys: Array of named path parameters used to populate req.params objects when dispatching to route handlers. Any additional data contained on these route objects will be retained. This is useful to store extra metadata about a route; e.g., a name to give routes logical names. This attribute is intended to be used to set routes at init time, or to completely reset all routes after init. To add routes after init without resetting all existing routes, use the route() method.

Default: `[]`

`scrollToTop`

Boolean

Inherited from PjaxBase: pjax/js/pjax-base.js:410

Available since 3.5.0

Whether the page should be scrolled to the top after navigating to a URL. When the user clicks the browser's back button, the previous scroll position will be maintained.

Default: true

`serverRouting`

Boolean

Inherited from App.Base: app/js/app-base.js:929

Available since 3.5.0

Whether or not this application's server is capable of properly routing all requests and rendering the initial state in the HTML responses. This can have three different values, each having particular implications on how the app will handle routing and navigation: * undefined: The best form of URLs will be chosen based on the capabilities of the browser. Given no information about the server environmentm a balanced approach to routing and navigation is chosen. The server should be capable of handling full-path requests, since full-URLs will be generated by browsers using HTML5 history. If this is a client-side-only app the server could handle full-URL requests by sending a redirect back to the root with a hash-based URL, e.g: Request: http://example.com/users/1 Redirect to: http://example.com/#/users/1 * true: The server is *fully* capable of properly handling requests to all full-path URLs the app can produce. This is the best option for progressive-enhancement because it will cause **all URLs to always have full-paths**, which means the server will be able to accurately handle all URLs this app produces. e.g. http://example.com/users/1 To meet this strict full-URL requirement, browsers which are not capable of using HTML5 history will make requests to the server resulting in full-page reloads. * false: The server is *not* capable of properly handling requests to all full-path URLs the app can produce, therefore all routing will be handled by this App instance. Be aware that this will cause **all URLs to always be hash-based**, even in browsers that are capable of using HTML5 history. e.g. http://example.com/#/users/1 A single-page or client-side-only app where the server sends a "shell" page with JavaScript to the client might have this restriction. If you're setting this to false, read the following: **Note:** When this is set to false, the server will *never* receive the full URL because browsers do not send the fragment-part to the server, that is everything after and including the "#". Consider the following example: URL shown in browser: http://example.com/#/users/1 URL sent to server: http://example.com/ You should feel bad about hurting our precious web if you forcefully set either serverRouting or html5 to false, because you're basically punching the web in the face here with your lossy URLs! Please make sure you know what you're doing and that you understand the implications. Ideally you should always prefer full-path URLs (not /#/foo/), and want full-page reloads when the client's browser is not capable of enhancing the experience using the HTML5 history APIs. Setting this to true is the best option for progressive-enhancement (and graceful-degradation).

Default: undefined

`systemLanguageList`

Object readonly

Defined in Resources/public/js/apps/ez-platformuiapp.js:297

System language list provided with config. The list is hash containing language objects and is indexed by languageCode.

Default: {}

`timeout`

Number

Inherited from PjaxContent: pjax/js/pjax-content.js:263

Available since 3.5.0

Time in milliseconds after which an Ajax request should time out.

Default: 30000

`titleSelector`

String

Inherited from PjaxContent: pjax/js/pjax-content.js:245

Available since 3.5.0

CSS selector used to extract a page title from the content of a page loaded via Pjax. By default this is set to extract the title from the <title> element, but you could customize it to extract the title from an <h1>, or from any other element, if that's more appropriate for the content you're loading.

Default: "title"

`transitions`

Boolean | Object

Inherited from App.Transitions: app/js/app-extensions/app-transitions.js:41

Available since 3.5.0

Whether or not this application should use view transitions, and if so then which ones or true for the defaults which are specified by the transitions prototype property. **Note:** Transitions are an opt-in feature and will only be used in browsers which support native CSS3 transitions.

Default: false

`viewContainer`

HTMLElement | Node | String

Inherited from App.Base: app/js/app-base.js:1005

Available since 3.5.0

The node into which this app's views will be rendered when they become the activeView. The view container node serves as the container to hold the app's activeView. Each time the activeView is set via showView(), the previous view will be removed from this node, and the new active view's container node will be appended. The default view container is a <div> Node, but you can override this in a subclass, or by passing in a custom viewContainer config value at instantiation time. The viewContainer may be provided as a selector string, DOM element, or a Y.Node instance (having the viewContainer and the container be the same node is also supported). The app's render() method will stamp the view container with the CSS class "yui3-app-views" and append it to the app's container node if it isn't already, and any activeView will be appended to this node if it isn't already.

Default: Y.Node.create(this.containerTemplate)

Events

`destroy`

Inherited from BaseObservable: base/js/BaseObservable.js:163

Lifecycle event for the destroy phase, fired prior to destruction. Invoking the preventDefault method on the event object provided to subscribers will prevent destruction from proceeding.

Subscribers to the "after" moment of this event, will be notified after destruction is complete (and as a result cannot prevent destruction).

Event Payload:

e EventFacade
Event object

`init`

Inherited from BaseObservable: base/js/BaseObservable.js:62

Lifecycle event for the init phase, fired prior to initialization. Invoking the preventDefault() method on the event object provided to subscribers will prevent initialization from occuring.

Subscribers to the "after" momemt of this event, will be notified after initialization of the object is complete (and therefore cannot prevent initialization).

Event Payload:

e EventFacade
Event object, with a cfg property which refers to the configuration object passed to the constructor.

`navigate`

Inherited from PjaxBase: pjax/js/pjax-base.js:16

Available since 3.5.0

Fired when navigating to a URL via Pjax. When the navigate() method is called or a pjax link is clicked, this event will be fired if the browser supports HTML5 history _and_ the router has a route handler for the specified URL. This is a useful event to listen to for adding a visual loading indicator while the route handlers are busy handling the URL change.

Event Payload:

url String
The URL that the router will dispatch to its route handlers in order to fulfill the enhanced navigation "request".
[force=false] Boolean optional
Whether the enhanced navigation should occur even in browsers without HTML5 history.
[hash] String optional
The hash-fragment (including "#") of the url. This will be present when the url differs from the current URL only by its hash and navigateOnHash has been set to true.
[originEvent] Event optional
The event that caused the navigation. Usually this would be a click event from a "pjax" anchor element.
[replace] Boolean optional
Whether or not the current history entry will be replaced, or a new entry will be created. Will default to true if the specified url is the same as the current URL.

`ready`

Inherited from Router: app/js/router.js:26

Fired when the router is ready to begin dispatching to route handlers. You shouldn't need to wait for this event unless you plan to implement some kind of custom dispatching logic. It's used internally in order to avoid dispatching to an initial route if a browser history change occurs first.

Event Payload:

dispatched Boolean
true if routes have already been dispatched (most likely due to a history change).
