Final classes in JET

Classes in JET are generally final and do not support subclassing. At the moment, final is not enforced. However, this will likely change in an upcoming JET release.


Constructor

new IndexerModelTreeDataProvider(data, options)

Implementation of the IndexerModel and TreeDataProvider based on an array of data set. This should be used with the Indexer and its associated ListView. By default, this DataProvider groups the data based on the first letter of the data and the alphabet of the current locale. Note this implementation of TreeDataProvider does not fire any model events.
Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description
data Array.<any> an array of data used for Indexer and ListView
options IndexerModelTreeDataProvider.Options.<D> <optional>
 the options set on this IndexerModelTreeProvider

Methods

addEventListener(eventType: string, listener: EventListener): void

Add a callback function to listen for a specific event type.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
eventType string The event type to listen for.
listener EventListener The callback function that receives the event notification.

containsKeys(parameters : FetchByKeysParameters<K>) : Promise<ContainsKeysResults<K>>

Check if there are rows containing the specified keys. If this method is called on a DataProvider returned from getChildDataProvider(key), the rows will be only those from the children of the key.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
parameters FetchByKeysParameters contains by key parameters
Since:
  • 4.2.0
Returns:

Returns Promise which resolves to ContainsKeysResults.

Type
Promise.<ContainsKeysResults>
Example

Check if keys 1001 and 556 are contained

let containsKeys = [1001, 556];
let value = await dataprovider.containsKeys({keys: containsKeys});
let results = value['results'];
if (results.has(1001)) {
  console.log('Has key 1001');
} else if (results.has(556){
  console.log('Has key 556');
}

dispatchEvent(evt: Event): boolean

Dispatch an event and invoke any registered listeners.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
event Event The event object to dispatch.
Returns:

Return false if a registered listener has cancelled the event. Return true otherwise.

Type
boolean

fetchByKeys(parameters : FetchByKeysParameters<K>) : Promise<FetchByKeysResults<K, D>>

Fetch rows by keys. If this method is called on a DataProvider returned from getChildDataProvider(key), the rows will be only those from the children of the key.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
parameters FetchByKeysParameters fetch by key parameters
Since:
  • 4.2.0
Returns:

Returns Promise which resolves to FetchByKeysResults.

Type
Promise.<FetchByKeysResults>
Example

Fetch for keys 1001 and 556

let fetchKeys = [1001, 556];
let value = await dataprovider.fetchByKeys({keys: fetchKeys});
// get the data for key 1001
console.log(value.results.get(1001).data);

fetchByOffset(parameters: FetchByOffsetParameters<D>): Promise<FetchByOffsetResults<K, D>>

Fetch rows by offset

A generic implementation of this method is available from FetchByOffsetMixin. It is for convenience and may not provide the most efficient implementation for your data provider. Classes that implement the DataProvider interface are encouraged to provide a more efficient implementation.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
parameters FetchByOffsetParameters fetch by offset parameters
Since:
  • 4.2.0
Returns:

Returns Promise which resolves to FetchByOffsetResults.

Type
Promise.<FetchByOffsetResults>
Example

Fetch by offset 5 rows starting at index 2

let result = await dataprovider.fetchByOffset({size: 5, offset: 2});
let results = result['results'];
let data = results.map(function(value) {
  return value['data'];
});
let keys = results.map(function(value) {
  return value['metadata']['key'];
});

fetchFirst(parameters?: FetchListParameters<D>): AsyncIterable<FetchListResult<K, D>>

Get an AsyncIterable object for iterating the data.

AsyncIterable contains a Symbol.asyncIterator method that returns an AsyncIterator. AsyncIterator contains a “next” method for fetching the next block of data.

The "next" method returns a promise that resolves to an object, which contains a "value" property for the data and a "done" property that is set to true when there is no more data to be fetched. The "done" property should be set to true only if there is no "value" in the result. Note that "done" only reflects whether the iterator is done at the time "next" is called. Future calls to "next" may or may not return more rows for a mutable data source.

In order for JET components to work correctly, DataProvider implementations should ensure that:

  • The iterator accounts for data mutations when returning the next block of data, and that no row is duplicated or skipped. For example, an offset-based implementation may need to adjust the offset from which the next block of data starts if rows have been added or removed in the returned data.
  • JET components may call "next" on the iterator even after the iterator has returned done:true. If new data is available after the last returned row, the iterator is expected to return the new data and set "done" to false. This differs from the AsyncIterator spec for performance reasons.

Please see the DataProvider documentation for more information on custom implementations.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description
params FetchListParameters <optional>
 fetch parameters
Since:
  • 4.2.0
See:
Returns:

AsyncIterable with FetchListResult

Type
AsyncIterable.<FetchListResult>
Example

Get an asyncIterator and then fetch first block of data by executing next() on the iterator. Subsequent blocks can be fetched by executing next() again.

let asyncIterator = dataprovider.fetchFirst(options)[Symbol.asyncIterator]();
let result = await asyncIterator.next();
let value = result.value;
let data = value.data;
let keys = value.metadata.map(function(val) {
  return val.key;
});

getCapability(capabilityName: string): any

Determines whether this DataProvider defines a certain feature.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
capabilityName string capability name. Defined capability names are: "fetchByKeys", "fetchByOffset", "sort", "fetchCapability" and "filter".
Since:
  • 4.2.0
Returns:

capability information or null if undefined

Type
Object
Example

Check what kind of fetchByKeys is defined.

let capabilityInfo = dataprovider.getCapability('fetchByKeys');
if (capabilityInfo.implementation == 'iteration') {
  // the DataProvider supports iteration for fetchByKeys
  ...

getChildDataProvider(key: K): TreeDataProvider<K, D> | null

Get the data provider for the children of the row identified by key.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
key any key of the row to get child data provider for.
Since:
  • 5.1.0
Returns:

A TreeDataProvider if the row can (but doesn't have to) have children; or null if the row cannot have children. Use the isEmpty method on the returned TreeDataProvider to determine if it currently has children.

getTotalSize : {Promise.<number>}

Return the total number of rows in this dataprovider
Returns:

Example

Get the total rows

let value = await dataprovider.getTotalSize();
if (value == -1) {
  // we don't know the total row count
} else {
  // the total count
  console.log(value);
}

isEmpty(): 'yes' | 'no' | 'unknown'

Returns a string that indicates if this data provider is empty. Valid values are:
  • "yes": this data provider is empty.
  • "no": this data provider is not empty.

Since:
  • 4.2.0
Returns:

string that indicates if this data provider is empty

Type
"yes" | "no" | "unknown"
Example

Check if empty
