Utility methods for oj-module element

ModuleElementUtils is a helper object that provides convenience methods for creating views and view models using RequireJS. In addition to loading a view, the loadView() method also converts loaded data into an array of nodes - format accepted by oj-module.

Usage : 


//create oj-module config as an observable and initialize it with empty values
self.moduleConfig = ko.observable({'view':[],'viewModel':null});

//create view and view model, mutate configuration object to update oj-module content
var masterPromise = Promise.all([
  moduleElementUtils.createView({'viewPath':'views/ojModule-simple/page.html'}),
  moduleElementUtils.createViewModel({'viewModelPath':'viewModels/ojModule-simple/page'})
 ]);
 masterPromise.then(
   function(values){
     self.moduleConfig({'view':values[0],'viewModel':values[1]});
   },
   function(reason){}
 );

options Object Options object used to create a view
Properties
Name Type Argument Description
viewPath string The path to the view, relative to the RequireJS baseURL. The text plugin will be used for loading the view.
require function <optional>
 An optional instance of the require() function to be used for loading the view. By default the path is relative to the baseUrl specified for the application require calls.
Since:
  • 5.0.0
Returns:
A promise that resolves into an array of DOM nodes
Type
Promise

var viewPromise = moduleElementUtils.createView({'viewPath':'views/ojModule-simple/page.html'});

(static) createViewModel(options) → {Promise}
