The YUI Buffet

Sub-Module Architecture

io : All IO functionality (7.4K)

– io-base : Core XHR functionality (3.3K)

– io-form : Form mining support (1K)

– io-queue : Transaction Queuing support (0.7K)

– io-upload : File upload support (1.7K)

– io-xdr : Cross domain support (0.7K)

The Node Wrapper

Working with DOM Elements in YUI 3

var node = Y.get(".actions li.task.selected");

node.addClass("current");

node.on("click", handler);

Y.get(…).addClass("current").on("click", handler);

Supports

node.appendChild(aNode)

node.cloneNode(boolean)

node.scrollIntoView()

node.focus()

node.get("parentNode")

node.set("innerHTML","Foo")

Normalizes

node.getAttribute("href")

node.contains(aNode)

node.getStyle("paddingTop")

node.previous()

Enhances

node.addClass("selectable")

node.toggleClass("enabled")

node.getXY()

node.get("region")

node.on("srcChange", fn)

node.after("innerHTMLChange", fn)

Extendable

node.plug(IOPlugin);

node.io.getContent("http://foo/bar");

node.plug(DragDropPlugin);

node.dd.set("handle", ".title");

Constrainable

Node is the single point of access to the DOM.

Makes YUI 3 ideal as a trusted source for"constrained" environments like Caja andAd-safe.

NodeList

* The Costco to Node’s Kwik-E Mart

var items = Y.all(".actions li");items.addClass("disabled");items.set("title", "Item Disabled");

items.each(function(node) { node.addClass("disabled); node.set("title", "Item Disabled");});

The Event System

Event Listeners & Event Facades

// Dom EventmyElement.on("click", function(e) { if (!e.target.hasClass("disabled")) { e.preventDefault(); }});

// Custom EventmyWidget.on("select", function(e) { if (e.newVal < 200) { e.preventDefault(); }});

Detaching Listeners

// YUI 3var handle = overlay.on("show", myShowHandler);handle.detach();

// Oroverlay.on("myapp|show", myShowHandler);overlay.on("myapp|hide", myHideHandler);

overlay.detach("myapp|show");

overlay.detach("myapp|*");

Custom Event Flow: On/Default/After
