Methods. The "methods" property
Glossary Item Box
Introduction
The methods property of the view model schema contains a collection of methods that form the business logic of the schema and affect the view model. Create new methods and override (replace) base methods of parent schemas in this property. By default, the scope of methods is the view model scope.
Examples of method declaration
An example of a replaced method
Add the [Email] column completion requirement logic to the setValidationConfig method logic of the Terrasoft.configuration.BaseSchemaViewModel class.
methods: {
// Method name.
setValidationConfig: function() {
// Calling the logic of the setValidationConfig parent schema method.
this.callParent(arguments);
// Setting up the validation for the [Email] column.
this.addColumnValidator("Email", EmailHelper.getEmailValidator);
}
}
An example of a new method
methods: {
// Method name.
getBlankSlateHeaderCaption: function() {
// Accessing the MasterColumnInfo column values.
var masterColumnInfo = this.get("MasterColumnInfo");
// Returning method work results.
return masterColumnInfo ? masterColumnInfo.caption : "";
},
// Method name.
getBlankSlateIcon: function() {
// Returning method work results.
return this.Terrasoft.ImageUrlBuilder.getUrl(this.get("Resources.Images.BlankSlateIcon"));
}
}
