Class Completer

A widget that enables text completion.

Notes

The completer is intended to be absolutely positioned on the page and hover over any other content, so it should be attached directly to document.body, or a node that is the full size of document.body. Attaching it to other nodes may incorrectly locate the completer.

Private _createCompletionItemNode

_createCompletionItemNode: any

Private _createIItemNode

_createIItemNode: any

Private _cycle

_cycle: any

Cycle through the available completer items.

Notes

When the user cycles all the way down to the last index, subsequent down cycles will remain on the last index. When the user cycles up to the first item, subsequent up cycles will remain on the first cycle.

_evtKeydown: any

Handle keydown events for the widget.

Readonly dataset

dataset: DOMStringMap

The dataset for the widget's DOM node.

Readonly disposed

disposed: ISignal<this, void>

A signal emitted when the widget is disposed.

id

id: string

Set the id of the widget's DOM node.

Readonly isAttached

isAttached: boolean

Test whether the widget's node is attached to the DOM.

Readonly isDisposed

isDisposed: boolean

Test whether the widget has been disposed.

Readonly isHidden

isHidden: boolean

Test whether the widget is explicitly hidden.

Readonly isVisible

isVisible: boolean

Test whether the widget is visible.

Notes

A widget is visible when it is attached to the DOM, is not explicitly hidden, and has no explicitly hidden ancestors.

layout

layout: Layout | null

Set the layout for the widget.

Notes

The layout is single-use only. It cannot be changed after the first assignment.

The layout is disposed automatically when the widget is disposed.

Readonly node

node: HTMLElement

Get the DOM node owned by the widget.

parent

parent: Widget | null

Set the parent of the widget.

Notes

Children are typically added to a widget by using a layout, which means user code will not normally set the parent widget directly.

The widget will be automatically removed from its old parent.

This is a no-op if there is no effective parent change.

Readonly title

title: Title<Widget>

The title object for the widget.

Notes

The title object is used by some container widgets when displaying the widget alongside some title, such as a tab panel or side bar.

Since not all widgets will use the title, it is created on demand.

The owner property of the title is set to this widget.

Accessors

editor

  • get editor(): CodeEditor.IEditor | null
  • set editor(newValue: CodeEditor.IEditor | null): any

  • The editor used by the completion widget.

    Returns CodeEditor.IEditor | null

  • The editor used by the completion widget.

    Parameters

    • newValue: CodeEditor.IEditor | null

    Returns any

model

  • get model(): IModel | null
  • set model(model: IModel | null): any

  • The model used by the completer widget.

    Returns IModel | null

  • The model used by the completer widget.

    Parameters

    Returns any

selected

  • get selected(): ISignal<this, string>

  • A signal emitted when a selection is made from the completer menu.

    Returns ISignal<this, string>

visibilityChanged

  • get visibilityChanged(): ISignal<this, void>

  • A signal emitted when the completer widget's visibility changes.

    Notes

    This signal is useful when there are multiple floating widgets that may contend with the same space and ought to be mutually exclusive.

    Returns ISignal<this, void>
