Prevent component from rendering input attributes - canjs

I have a my-tag component that simply renders a title:
html
<div id="content"></div>
<script id="main-template" type="text/mustache">
<my-tag title="This is the title"></my-tag>
</script>
javascript
var Component = can.Component.extend({
tag: 'my-tag',
template: '<h1>{{title}}</h1>',
viewModel: {
title: '#'
}
});
$('#content').html(can.view('main-template', {}));
output
<div id="content">
<my-tag title="This is the title">
<h1>This is the title</h1>
</my-tag>
</div>
I would like to have the output as follows:
<div id="content">
<my-tag>
<h1>This is the title</h1>
</my-tag>
</div>
How can I get the component to not render the title attribute in my-tag?
Here is the jsfiddle.

You can't prevent it from rendering, however, you might be able to remove it after the component is created like:
var Component = can.Component.extend({
tag: 'my-tag',
template: '<h1>{{title}}</h1>',
viewModel: {
title: '#'
},
events: {
init: function(){
this.element.removeAttr("title");
}
}
});
Also, if you are starting a new CanJS project, I'd encourage you to switch to can.stache as that will be the default templating engine in 3.0. It's highly compatible with can.mustache.

Why does binding a variable to the src parameter in the img tag not work in vuejs?

I have a Vuejs component containing an img tag. I can render the image with no problem if I hardcode the src like this.
<template>
<div>
<!-- <img class="rotate logo" alt="Vue logo" src="#/assets/abstractwave.png"/> -->
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
name: "RotatingImage",
props: {
filename: String
},
}
</script>
I cannot render the image if I insert bind the src as a prop. As follows... Why is this? What must I change in order to render the image using a prop?
<template>
<div>
<img class = "rotate" alt="Vue logo" :src="`#/assets/${filename}`" />
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
name: "RotatingImage",
props: {
filename: String
},
}
</script>
Upon inspection in the browser, I see that the src path is correct, yet the image does not show.
You can make computed property:
computed: {
getImgUrl() {
return require(`#/assets/${this.filename}`);
}
}
Then in template bind it:
<img class = "rotate" alt="Vue logo" :src="getImgUrl" />

How to use multiple fineuploader instances with manual upload buttons with one template

With the fine-uploader plugin I am trying to add multiple (dynamic could be 1, or 10) instances with an optional caption field and a manual upload button per section.
The form I am uploading from is dynamically generated in layout as well as content, the uploaded files have to be stored by the handler based upon the section of the form as well as the instance of fine-uploader. I also need the ability to effectively upload each instance of fine-uploader independently
The issue that I am hitting is following the guidelines & demo for the manual upload option, ie adding a click function it will always find only the first instance as it searches for the button using .getElementById.
I can get around this by defining a new template for each instance however I would prefer to use a single template.
The template code (for each instance - abbreviated for simplicity) is
<script type="text/template" id="qq-template-manual-trigger#XX#">
<div class="qq-uploader-selector qq-uploader" qq-drop-area-text="Drop files here">
...
<div class="buttons">
<div class="qq-upload-button-selector qq-upload-button">
<div>Select files</div>
</div>
<button type="button" id="trigger-upload#XX#" class="btn btn-primary">
<i class="icon-upload icon-white"></i> Upload
</button>
</div>
...
<ul class="qq-upload-list-selector qq-upload-list" aria-live="polite" aria-relevant="additions removals">
<li>
...
<input class="caption" tabindex="1" type="text">
...
</li>
</ul>
...
</div>
</script>
<div id="fine-uploader-manual-trigger#XX#"></div>
and the uploader script
<script>
var manualUploader#XX# = new qq.FineUploader({
element: document.getElementById('fine-uploader-manual-trigger#XX#'),
template: 'qq-template-manual-trigger#XX#',
request: {
inputName: "imagegroup[]",
endpoint: '/SaveFile.aspx'
},
autoUpload: false,
debug: true,
callbacks: {
onError: function(id, name, errorReason, xhrOrXdr) {
alert(qq.format("Error on file number {} - {}. Reason: {}", id, name, errorReason));
},
onUpload: function (id) {
var fileContainer = this.getItemByFileId(id)
var captionInput = fileContainer.querySelector('.caption')
var captionText = captionInput.value
this.setParams({
"descr[]": captionText,
<-- Other parameters here -->
}, id)
}
},
});
qq(document.getElementById("trigger-upload#XX#")).attach("click", function () {
manualUploader#XX#.uploadStoredFiles();
});
</script>
in the ideal world I would prefer simply have a single
<script type="text/template" id="qq-template-manual-trigger">
....
</script>
then where required multiple times through the form
<div id="fine-uploader-manual-trigger"></div>
<script>
var manualUploader#XX# = new qq.FineUploader({
element: document.getElementById('fine-uploader-manual-trigger'),
template: 'qq-template-manual-trigger',
...
}
qq(document.getElementById("trigger-upload")).attach("click", function () {
manualUploader#XX#.uploadStoredFiles();
});
</script>
The use of the attach function by calling .getElementById just feels wrong, or at the very least cludgy, is there a better way of activating the upload on a per-instance basis?
Thanks in advance
K
Sorted, but if anyone has a better answer...
Instead of using the demo of document.getElementById("trigger-upload")
Simply use document.querySelector("#fine-uploader-manual-trigger #trigger-upload")
eg
<div id="fine-uploader-manual-triggerXX"></div>
<script>
var manualUploaderXX = new qq.FineUploader({
element: document.getElementById('fine-uploader-manual-triggerXX'),
template: 'qq-template-manual-trigger',
... // omitted for brevity
}
qq(document.querySelector("#fine-uploader-manual-triggerXX #trigger-upload")).attach("click", function () {
manualUploaderXX.uploadStoredFiles();
});
</script>

Updating a polymer element property with data from API call

I'm trying to update a property in a polymer element with data from an ajax api call. I have something similar working elsewhere in the app where users are able to add packages dynamically.
Anyone know what I'm doing wrong here?

<template is="dom-repeat" items="{{options}}">
<p>{{item.rates}}</p>
</template>
</div>
</div>
</section>
</template>
</dom-module>
<script>
Polymer ({
is: 'step-one',
properties: {
options: {
type: Object,
notify: true,
value: []
}
},
submitInfo: function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
//add dimensions of all packages to the dimensions array
var dimensions=[];
$('#packages .package-card').each(function(){
var weight= $(this).find('.weight').val();
var length= $(this).find('.length').val();
var height= $(this).find('.height').val();
var width= $(this).find('.width').val();
var dimension={width:width,length:length,height:height,weight:weight};
dimensions.push(dimension);
});
//capture address data
var from = $('#fromAddress').val();
var to = $('#toAddress').val();
//URL that processes getting a URL
var getQuoteURL = '../v2/API/get_rates.php';
var stuff = [];
jQuery.ajax({
type: "POST",
dataType: "json",
cache: false,
url: getQuoteURL,
data:{
from:from,
to:to,
dimension:dimensions
}
}).done(function(data){
$.each(data['rates'], function(i, rate ) {
stuff.push({carrier:rate.carrier});
return stuff;
});
//show step two when ajax call completes
$('.step-two').removeClass('hide').addClass('show');
console.log(stuff);//I can see all objects I need to pass to the 'options' property
return stuff;
});
this.push('options',stuff);//doesn't seem to update the 'options' property with these as a value
}
});
</script>
I'm able to console.log the array i'm trying to use, but when I try to push it to the 'options' property, it won't update.
Consider using Polymer built in methods instead of jQuery.
1. A button to submit a request.
<paper-button on-click="handleClick">Send a package</paper-button>
2. AJAX requests using <iron-ajax> element!
<iron-ajax id="SendPkg"
url="my/api/url"
method="POST"
headers='{"Content-Type": "application/json"}'
body={{packageDetails}}
on-response="handleResponse">
</iron-ajax>
3. Handle the on-click event,
On click, select <iron-ajax> by ID and call <iron-ajax>'s generateRequest()
Use either data binding or Polymer's DOM API to get the package's width, height ...etc
handleClick: function() {
this.packageDetails = {"width": this.pkgWidth, "height": this.pkgHeight };
this.$.SendPkg.generateRequest();
},
4. Handle the response
handleResponse: function() {
//Push data to options...
},
return stuff;
});
this.push('options',stuff);//doesn't seem to update the 'options' property with these as a value
should be
return stuff;
this.push('options',stuff);//doesn't seem to update the 'options' property with these as a value
)};
otherwise
this.push('options',stuff);
is executed before data has arrived
The solution ended up being to put this into a variable:
var self = this;
then in the ajax .done() replace the value of the object with the new object from the ajax call.
self.options = stuff;
I guess you have to put "this" into a variable before you can overwrite it's values. Then the other issue was that I was trying to use .push() to add to it, but really all I needed to do was replace it. (Using self.push('options',stuff); didn't seem to work as far as adding to an object)

Conditional display with Dojo MVC

I have a dojox/mvc/Repeat area which is bound to an array of records.
Within the row of the Repeat there is a field (the id of the record) which should be a simple display Output if the record has already been saved to the database, but it should be a TextBox if the record is new (the user must enter the value).
How do I solve this elegantly? I am fairly new to Dojo and its MVC part is very under-documented.
The most MVC-ish solution I have found so far is as follows:
1)
I put a "hasBeenSaved" property into the model which will mark the server-side saved state of the record. This attribute will be bound to the view with a transformation since the "display" style attribute of the DIV will be bound to the hasBeenSaved model attribute (one is a boolean the other is a string: "block"/"none").
2)
Within the Row, I put a conditionally visible div around the id input field. This will be visible only when the record is new, so its display style attribute is bound with an appropriate transformer attached to the Dojo MVC binding.
The same is done for the id output field but the transformer is different on the binding since this will be displayed only when the record has already been saved.
The JSFiddle which I have used to prototype this solution: http://jsfiddle.net/asoltesz/6t4dj1w7/15/
require([
"dojo/_base/declare", "dojo/dom-style", "dojo/parser", "dojo/ready",
"dijit/_WidgetBase", "dijit/_TemplatedMixin",

], function(
declare, domStyle, parser, ready,
_WidgetBase, _TemplatedMixin,
getStateful
){
// setting up the data model for MVC
model = {
items: [
{ id: 'id1',
hasBeenSaved: true
},
{ id: null,
hasBeenSaved: false
},
{ id: null,
hasBeenSaved: false
},
{ id: 'id3',
hasBeenSaved: true
}
]
};
model = getStateful(model);
/**
* This mixin makes it possible to set the "display" style property of
* the DOM node (of any widget) as a Widget property and thus bind it to an MVC model
* when needed.
*/
declare("_DisplayAttributeMixin", [], {
// parameters
display: "block",
_setDisplayAttr: function(/*String*/ display){
this._set("display", display);
domStyle.set(this.domNode, "display", display);
}
});
/** Transformer methods for converting hasBeenSaved to visible/hidden values */
transfSavedToHidden = {format: function(hasBeenSaved){
console.log("transfSavedToHidden: " + (hasBeenSaved ? "none" : "block"));
return hasBeenSaved ? "none" : "block";
}};
transfSavedToVisible = {format: function(hasBeenSaved){
console.log("transfSavedToHidden: " + (hasBeenSaved ? "block" : "none"));
return hasBeenSaved ? "block" : "none";
}};
ready(function(){
// Call the parser manually so it runs after our mixin is defined, and page has finished loading
parser.parse();
});
});
The HTML markup:
<script type="dojo/require">at: "dojox/mvc/at"</script>
<div
data-dojo-type="dojox/mvc/Group"
data-dojo-props="target: model"
>
<div id="repeatId"

>
<div
data-dojo-type="dojox/mvc/Group"
data-dojo-props="target: at('rel:', ${this.index})"
>
<span>Record: ${this.index}</span>
<!-- This is displayed only when the record is new (not saved yet) -->
<div
data-dojo-type="dijit/_WidgetBase"
data-dojo-mixins="_DisplayAttributeMixin"
data-mvc-bindings="
display: at('rel:', 'hasBeenSaved')

></span>
</div> <!-- end conditionally hidden div -->
<hr/>
</div> <!-- end of row -->
</div> <!-- end of Repeat -->
</div> <!-- end of Group -->
A secondary, less complex solution:
Bind the "hasBeenSaved" property to a hidden text within the repeating div.
Put an onChange event on the hidden field which gets the index of the repeat as well.
The onChange event simply hides the field which is not appropriate in light of the hasBeenChanged property value for the record.
The fiddle is here: http://jsfiddle.net/asoltesz/8u9js6sz/5/
Code:
hasBeenSavedChanged = function(field, index) {
var divToHide
if (field.value == true) {
divToHide = "idInputDiv"
}
else {
divToHide = "idOutputDiv"
}
var div = document.getElementById(divToHide + index);
div.style.display = "none";
}

"dojo/_base/declare", "dojo/dom-style", "dojo/parser", "dojo/ready",
"dijit/_WidgetBase", "dijit/_TemplatedMixin",

]
};
model = getStateful(model);
ready(function(){
// Call the parser manually so it runs after our mixin is defined, and page has finished loading

});
});

Mixin/transformer approach is something I had in mind, too. Two things I’d add there are out-of-the-box Dijit features, one is dijitDisplayNone class, another is attribute mapping feature.
Though it’s strange that the former is undocumented, the intent may have been for private usage within Dijit codebase.
Though it’s a bit hackish (and may be broken in future 1.x Dijit releases), overriding the Dijit code that’s responsible for attribute mapping will allow you to map a widget attribute to a CSS class that’s toggled.
Here’s a code sample that uses the above two:

array.forEach((function(){ return lang.isArray(commands) ? commands.slice(0) : [commands]; })(arguments.length >= 3 ? commands : this.attributeMap[attr]), function(command){

Events not working when using Mustache with Backbone.js

So I am making a test app using RequireJs, Mustache and Backbone.js. I had some success with rendering the collection of models with the Mustache template. But my Mustache template has a button and when I try to bind click event on the button in the view, the button click doesn't invoke the callback function. I am really stuck, can someone tell me where I am not doing right?
Here is my code:
ItemView.js:
define(['jquery', 'backbone', 'underscore', 'mustache', '../../atm/model/item'], function ($, Backbone, _, Mustache, Item) {
var ItemView = Backbone.View.extend({
initialize: function() {
},
tagName: 'li',
events: {
'click .button': 'showPriceChange'
},
render: function() {
var template = $('#template-atm').html();
var itemObj = this.model.toJSON();
itemObj['cid'] = this.model.cid;
var rendering = Mustache.to_html(template, itemObj);
this.el = rendering;
return this;
},
showPriceChange: function(event) {
alert('Changing...');
$('#' + elemId).empty();
$('#' + elemId).append(document.createTextNode('Changed'));
},
});
return ItemView;
});
atm.html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Elevator</title>
<script data-main="scripts/main" src="scripts/require-jquery.js"></script>
<style type="text/css">
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Vending Machine</h1>
<div id="atm-items">
</div>
<script id="template-atm" type="html/template">
<li>
<p>Item: {{name}}</p>
<label for="price-{{cid}}">Price:</label>
<input id="price-{{cid}}" type="text" value="{{price}}"/>
<button class="button">Change</button>
<p id="status-{{name}}-{{cid}}">- -</p>
</li>
</script>
</body>
</html>
You're replacing the view's el inside render:
render: function() {
//...
this.el = rendering;
//...
}
When you do that, you're losing the jQuery delegate that is attached to this.el, that delegate handler (which Backbone adds) is responsible for the event routing.
Usually, you add things to this.el rather than replacing this.el. If your template looked like this:
<script id="template-atm" type="html/template">
<p>Item: {{name}}</p>
<label for="price-{{cid}}">Price:</label>
<input id="price-{{cid}}" type="text" value="{{price}}"/>
<button class="button">Change</button>
<p id="status-{{name}}-{{cid}}">- -</p>
</script>
then you would this.$el.append(rendering) in your view's render; this would give you an <li> in this.el since you've set your view's tagName to li.
Alternatively, if you really need to keep the <li> in the template, you could use setElement to replace this.el, this.$el, and take care of the event delegation:
this.setElement(rendering);
Presumably you're wrapping all these <li>s in a <ul>, <ol>, or <menu> somewhere else; if you're not then you're producing invalid HTML and the browser might try to correct it for you, the corrections might cause you trouble elsewhere as your HTML structure might not be what your selectors think it is.
