Properties

  • observable

    attributes : Record<string, any>

    Custom comment attributes. See also setAttribute and removeAttribute.

  • readonly

    author : User

    The comment author.

  • observable

    authoredAt : Date

    Date when the comment was made.

    Usually the same as createdAt but may be different in some cases (e.g. when comment was added from an external source).

  • content : string

    The comment content.

  • createdAt : Date

    Date when the comment was saved in the database.

  • readonly

    creator : User

    The user which saved the comment data in the database.

    Usually the same as author but may be different in some cases (e.g. when comment was added from an external source).

  • readonly

    id : string

    The comment ID.

  • readonly observable

    isEditable : boolean

    When is set to true, editing the comment is blocked.

  • readonly

    isExternal : boolean

    The flag indicating whether the comment comes from an external source.

  • readonly observable

    isReadOnly : boolean

    The read-only state inherited from the parent CommentThread. When is set to true, then removing and editing the comment thread is blocked.

    In contrast to isEditable and isRemovable, this state can be used to hide some UI parts instead of temporarily disabling them.

  • readonly observable

    isRemovable : boolean

    When is set to false, removing the comment is blocked.

    bind( bindProperties ) → MultiBindChain

    Binds observable properties to other objects implementing the Observable interface.

    Read more in the dedicated guide covering the topic of property bindings with some additional examples.

    Consider two objects: a button and an associated command (both Observable).

    A simple property binding could be as follows:

    button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command, 'isEnabled' );
    

    or even shorter:

    button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command );
    

    which works in the following way:

    • button.isEnabled instantly equals command.isEnabled,
    • whenever command.isEnabled changes, button.isEnabled will immediately reflect its value.

    Note: To release the binding, use unbind.

    You can also "rename" the property in the binding by specifying the new name in the to() chain:

    button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command, 'isWorking' );
    

    It is possible to bind more than one property at a time to shorten the code:

    button.bind( 'isEnabled', 'value' ).to( command );
    

    which corresponds to:

    button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command );
    button.bind( 'value' ).to( command );
    

    The binding can include more than one observable, combining multiple data sources in a custom callback:

    button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command, 'isEnabled', ui, 'isVisible',
    	( isCommandEnabled, isUIVisible ) => isCommandEnabled && isUIVisible );
    

    Using a custom callback allows processing the value before passing it to the target property:

    button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command, 'value', value => value === 'heading1' );
    

    It is also possible to bind to the same property in an array of observables. To bind a button to multiple commands (also Observables) so that each and every one of them must be enabled for the button to become enabled, use the following code:

    button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).toMany( [ commandA, commandB, commandC ], 'isEnabled',
    	( isAEnabled, isBEnabled, isCEnabled ) => isAEnabled && isBEnabled && isCEnabled );
    

    Parameters

    bindProperties : Array<'off' | 'on' | 'once' | 'listenTo' | 'stopListening' | 'fire' | 'delegate' | 'stopDelegating' | 'set' | 'bind' | 'unbind' | 'decorate' | 'id' | 'remove' | 'destroy' | 'attributes' | 'isReadOnly' | 'toJSON' | 'removeAttribute' | 'update' | 'content' | 'setAttribute' | 'isEditable' | 'isRemovable' | 'authoredAt' | 'resolvedAt' | 'threadId' | 'author' | 'creator' | 'isExternal' | 'createdAt' | 'weight'>

    Observable properties that will be bound to other observable(s).

    Returns

    MultiBindChain

    The bind chain with the to() and toMany() methods.

  • inherited

    decorate( methodName ) → void

    Turns the given methods of this object into event-based ones. This means that the new method will fire an event (named after the method) and the original action will be plugged as a listener to that event.

    Read more in the dedicated guide covering the topic of decorating methods with some additional examples.

    Decorating the method does not change its behavior (it only adds an event), but it allows to modify it later on by listening to the method's event.

    For example, to cancel the method execution the event can be stopped:

    class Foo extends ObservableMixin() {
    	constructor() {
    		super();
    		this.decorate( 'method' );
    	}
    
    	method() {
    		console.log( 'called!' );
    	}
    }
    
    const foo = new Foo();
    foo.on( 'method', ( evt ) => {
    	evt.stop();
    }, { priority: 'high' } );
    
    foo.method(); // Nothing is logged.
    

    Note: The high priority listener has been used to execute this particular callback before the one which calls the original method (which uses the "normal" priority).

    It is also possible to change the returned value:

    foo.on( 'method', ( evt ) => {
    	evt.return = 'Foo!';
    } );
    
    foo.method(); // -> 'Foo'
    

    Finally, it is possible to access and modify the arguments the method is called with:

    method( a, b ) {
    	console.log( `${ a }, ${ b }`  );
    }
    
    // ...
    
    foo.on( 'method', ( evt, args ) => {
    	args[ 0 ] = 3;
    
    	console.log( args[ 1 ] ); // -> 2
    }, { priority: 'high' } );
    
    foo.method( 1, 2 ); // -> '3, 2'
    

    Parameters

    methodName : 'off' | 'on' | 'once' | 'listenTo' | 'stopListening' | 'fire' | 'delegate' | 'stopDelegating' | 'set' | 'bind' | 'unbind' | 'decorate' | 'id' | 'remove' | 'destroy' | 'attributes' | 'isReadOnly' | 'toJSON' | 'removeAttribute' | 'update' | 'content' | 'setAttribute' | 'isEditable' | 'isRemovable' | 'authoredAt' | 'resolvedAt' | 'threadId' | 'author' | 'creator' | 'isExternal' | 'createdAt' | 'weight'

    Name of the method to decorate.

    Returns

    void

    delegate( events ) → EmitterMixinDelegateChain

    Delegates selected events to another Emitter. For instance:

    emitterA.delegate( 'eventX' ).to( emitterB );
    emitterA.delegate( 'eventX', 'eventY' ).to( emitterC );
    

    then eventX is delegated (fired by) emitterB and emitterC along with data:

    emitterA.fire( 'eventX', data );
    

    and eventY is delegated (fired by) emitterC along with data:

    emitterA.fire( 'eventY', data );
    

    Parameters

    events : Array<string>

    Event names that will be delegated to another emitter.

    Returns

    EmitterMixinDelegateChain
  • destroy() → void

    Destroys the comment instance.

    Returns

    void
  • inherited

    fire( eventOrInfo, args ) → GetEventInfo<TEvent>[ 'return' ]

    Fires an event, executing all callbacks registered for it.

    The first parameter passed to callbacks is an EventInfo object, followed by the optional args provided in the fire() method call.

    Type parameters

    TEvent : extends BaseEvent

    The type describing the event. See BaseEvent.

    Parameters

    eventOrInfo : GetNameOrEventInfo<TEvent>

    The name of the event or EventInfo object if event is delegated.

    args : TEvent[ 'args' ]

    Additional arguments to be passed to the callbacks.

    Returns

    GetEventInfo<TEvent>[ 'return' ]

    By default the method returns undefined. However, the return value can be changed by listeners through modification of the evt.return's property (the event info is the first param of every callback).

  • inherited

    listenTo( emitter, event, callback, [ options ] ) → void

    Registers a callback function to be executed when an event is fired in a specific (emitter) object.

    Events can be grouped in namespaces using :. When namespaced event is fired, it additionally fires all callbacks for that namespace.

    // myEmitter.on( ... ) is a shorthand for myEmitter.listenTo( myEmitter, ... ).
    myEmitter.on( 'myGroup', genericCallback );
    myEmitter.on( 'myGroup:myEvent', specificCallback );
    
    // genericCallback is fired.
    myEmitter.fire( 'myGroup' );
    // both genericCallback and specificCallback are fired.
    myEmitter.fire( 'myGroup:myEvent' );
    // genericCallback is fired even though there are no callbacks for "foo".
    myEmitter.fire( 'myGroup:foo' );
    

    An event callback can stop the event and set the return value of the fire method.

    Type parameters

    TEvent : extends BaseEvent

    The type describing the event. See BaseEvent.

    Parameters

    emitter : Emitter

    The object that fires the event.

    event : TEvent[ 'name' ]

    The name of the event.

    callback : GetCallback<TEvent>

    The function to be called on event.

    The function to stop being called.

    Returns

    void
  • inherited

    on( event, callback, [ options ] ) → void

    Registers a callback function to be executed when an event is fired.

    Shorthand for this.listenTo( this, event, callback, options ) (it makes the emitter listen on itself).

    Type parameters

    TEvent : extends BaseEvent

    The type descibing the event. See BaseEvent.

    Parameters

    event : TEvent[ 'name' ]

    The name of the event.

  • remove( data = { [data.isFromAdapter] } ) → void

    Removes the comment.

    Note: This method fires the event-updateComment event and the default behavior is added as a normal priority listener. It makes it possible to cancel the method or call some custom code before or after the default behavior is executed.

    Parameters

    data : object
    Properties
    [ data.isFromAdapter ] : boolean

    A flag describing whether the comment was updated from an adapter (true) or from the UI (false). If set to true, the adapter will not be called.

    Defaults to {}

    Returns

    void

    Fires

  • removeAttribute( name ) → void

    Removes a comment attribute.

    See also setAttribute.

    Parameters

    name : string

    The attribute name.

    Returns

    void

    Fires

  • inherited

    set( values ) → void

    Creates and sets the value of an observable properties of this object. Such a property becomes a part of the state and is observable.

    It accepts a single object literal containing key/value pairs with properties to be set.

    This method throws the observable-set-cannot-override error if the observable instance already has a property with the given property name. This prevents from mistakenly overriding existing properties and methods, but means that foo.set( 'bar', 1 ) may be slightly slower than foo.bar = 1.

    In TypeScript, those properties should be declared in class using declare keyword. In example:

    public declare myProp1: number;
    public declare myProp2: string;
    
    constructor() {
    	this.set( {
    		'myProp1: 2,
    		'myProp2: 'foo'
    	} );
    }
    

    Parameters

    values : object

    An object with name=>value pairs.

    Returns

    void
  • inherited

    set( name, value ) → void

    Creates and sets the value of an observable property of this object. Such a property becomes a part of the state and is observable.

    This method throws the observable-set-cannot-override error if the observable instance already has a property with the given property name. This prevents from mistakenly overriding existing properties and methods, but means that foo.set( 'bar', 1 ) may be slightly slower than foo.bar = 1.

    In TypeScript, those properties should be declared in class using declare keyword. In example:

    public declare myProp: number;
    
    constructor() {
    	this.set( 'myProp', 2 );
    }
    

    Type parameters

    K

    Parameters

    name : K

    The property's name.

    value : Comment[ K ]

    The property's value.

    Returns

    void
  • setAttribute( name, value ) → void

    Adds attribute to the comment.

    Comment attributes are custom data that can be set and used by features built around comments. Use it to store your feature data with other comment data.

     comment.setAttribute( 'isImportant', true );
    

    You can group multiple values in an object, using dot notation:

     comment.setAttribute( 'customData.type', 'image' );
     comment.setAttribute( 'customData.src', 'foo.jpg' );
    

    Attributes set on the comment can be accessed through the attribute property:

     const isImportant = comment.attributes.isImportant;
     const type = comment.attributes.customData.type;
    

    You can also observe the attributes property or bind other properties to it:

     myObj.bind( 'customData' ).to( comment, 'attributes', attributes => attributes.customData );
    

    Whenever setAttribute() or removeAttribute() is called, the attributes property is re-set and observables are refreshed.

    Parameters

    name : string

    Attribute name.

    value : unknown

    Attribute value.

    Returns

    void

    	console.log( `Value is going to be changed from ${ oldValue } to ${ newValue }` );
    	console.log( `Current property value is ${ observable[ propertyName ] }` );
    
    	// Let's override the value.
    	evt.return = 3;
    } );
    
    observable.on<ObservableChangeEvent<number>>( 'change:prop', ( evt, propertyName, newValue, oldValue ) => {
    	console.log( `Value has changed from ${ oldValue } to ${ newValue }` );
    } );
    
    observable.prop = 2; // -> 'Value is going to be changed from 1 to 2'
