deferredProperties

Any attribute that refers to row content cannot be resolved immediately, but some like booleans cannot stay a string because it’s a boolean attribute. We store them for later, and parse when they’re fully in their row. If you are creating a widget that can go in a nextmatch row, and it has boolean attributes that can change for each row, add those attributes into deferredProperties | - | - | |

Methods
| Name | Description | Arguments |
|---|---|---|
checkCreateNamespace()
|
Checks whether a namespace exists for this element in the content array. If yes, an own perspective of the content array is created. If not, the parent content manager is used. Constructor attributes are passed in case a child needs to make decisions | - |
clone()
|
Creates a copy of this widget. |
_parent: et2_widget
|
createElementFromNode()
|
Create a et2_widget from an XML node. First the type and attributes are read from the node. Then the readonly & modifications arrays are checked for changes specific to the loaded data. Then the appropriate constructor is called. After the constructor returns, the widget has a chance to further initialize itself from the XML node when the widget’s loadFromXML() method is called with the node. |
_node: , _name:
|
et2HandleFocus()
|
When input receives focus, clear any validation errors. If the value is the same on blur, we’ll put them back The ones from the server (ManualMessage) can interfere with submitting. Named et2HandleFocus to avoid overwriting handleFocus() in Shoelace components |
_ev: FocusEvent
|
filterOutMissingOptions()
|
Override filter to not, since we don’t have all accounts available |
value: string[]
|
fix_bad_value()
|
Handle the case where there is no value set, or the value provided is not an option. If this happens, we choose the first option or empty label. Careful when this is called. We change the value here, so an infinite loop is possible if the widget has onchange. | - |
getArrayMgr()
|
Returns the array manager object for the given part |
managed_array_type: string
|
getArrayMgrs()
|
Returns an associative array containing the top-most array managers. |
_mgrs: object
|
getChildren()
|
Get child widgets Use |
- |
getInputNode()
|
Get input to e.g. set aria-attributes | - |
getInstanceManager()
|
Returns the instance manager | - |
getPath()
|
Returns the path into the data array. By default, array manager takes care of this, but some extensions need to override this | - |
getRoot()
|
Returns the base widget Usually this is the same as getInstanceManager().widgetContainer | - |
hide()
|
Hides the listbox. | - |
isValid()
|
Used by etemplate2 to determine if we can submit or not |
messages:
|
loadFromXML()
|
Additional customisations from the XET node |
_node: Element
|
loadingFinished()
|
Needed for legacy compatability. |
promises: Promise[]
|
optionSearch()
|
Search options for a given value, returning the first matching option |
value: string, options: SelectOption[], searchKey: string, childKey: string
|
parseXMLAttrs()
|
The parseXMLAttrs function takes an XML DOM attributes object and adds the given attributes to the _target associative array. This function also parses the legacyOptions. N.B. This is only used for legacy widgets. WebComponents use transformAttributes() and do their own handling of attributes. |
_attrsObj: , _target: object, _proto: et2_widget
|
set_label()
|
NOT the setter, since we cannot add to the DOM before connectedCallback() TODO: This is not best practice. Should just set property, DOM modification should be done in render https://lit-element.polymer-project.org/guide/templates#design-a-performant-template |
value: string
|
setArrayMgr()
|
Sets the array manager for the given part |
_part: string, _mgr: object
|
setArrayMgrs()
|
Sets all array manager objects - this function can be used to set the root array managers of the container object. |
_mgrs: object
|
setInstanceManager()
|
Set the instance manager Normally this is not needed as it’s set on the top-level container, and we just return that reference |
manager: etemplate2
|
show()
|
Shows the listbox. | - |
submit()
|
Called whenever the template gets submitted. We return false if the widget is not valid, which cancels the submission. |
_values:
|
validate()
|
Massively simplified validate, as compared to what ValidatorMixin gives us, since ValidatorMixin extends FormControlMixin which breaks SlSelect’s render() We take all validators for the widget, and if there’s a value (or field is required) we check the value with each validator. For array values we check each element with each validator. If the value does not pass the validator, we collect the message and display feedback to the user. We handle validation errors from the server with ManualMessages, which always “fail”. If the value is empty, we only validate if the field is required. |
skipManual:
|
_emptyLabelTemplate()
|
Used for the “no value” option for single select Placeholder is used for multi-select with no value | - |
_extraTemplate()
|
Additional customisation template Override if needed. Added after select options. | - |
_handleClick()
|
Click handler calling custom handler set via onclick attribute to this.onclick |
_ev: MouseEvent
|
_handleTagOverflow()
|
Callback for the intersection observer so we know when tags don’t fit Here we set the flag to show how many more tags are hidden, but this only happens when there are more tags than space. |

|
_iconTemplate()

_optionsTemplate()
|
Iterate over all the options | - |
_optionTemplate()
|
Used to render each option into the select Override for custom select options. Note that spaces are
not allowed in option values, and sl-select requires options to be |
option: SelectOption
|
_set_label()
|
Do some fancy stuff on the label, splitting it up if there’s a %s in it Normally called from updated(), the “normal” setter stuff has already been run before this is called. We only override our special cases (%s) because the normal label has been set by the parent |
value: string
|
_setAriaAttributes()
|
Set aria-attributes on our input node | - |
_styleTemplate()
|
Custom, dynamic styling Put as much as you can in static styles for performance reasons Override this for custom dynamic styles | - |
_tagTemplate()
|
Custom tag Override this to customise display when multiple=true. There is no restriction on the tag used, unlike _optionTemplate() |

set_class()
