DataReader XmlReader
Package: | Ext.data |
Defined In: | XmlReader.js |
Class: | XmlReader |
Extends: | DataReader |
Data reader class to create an Array of Ext.data.Record objects from an XML document based on mappings in a provided Ext.data.Record constructor.
Note: that in order for the browser to parse a returned XML document, the Content-Type header in the HTTP response must be set to "text/xml" or "application/xml".
Example code:
var Employee = Ext.data.Record.create([
{name: 'name', mapping: 'name'}, // "mapping" property not needed if it is the same as "name"
{name: 'occupation'} // This field will use "occupation" as the mapping.
]);
var myReader = new Ext.data.XmlReader({
totalRecords: "results", // The element which contains the total dataset size (optional)
record: "row", // The repeated element which contains row information
id: "id" // The element within the row that provides an ID for the record (optional)
}, Employee);
This would consume an XML file like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<dataset>
<results>2</results>
<row>
<id>1</id>
<name>Bill</name>
<occupation>Gardener</occupation>
</row>
<row>
<id>2</id>
<name>Ben</name>
<occupation>Horticulturalist</occupation>
</row>
</dataset>

corresponding to idProperty defined in your DataReader config containing non-empty pk. Parameters:

realize( Record/Record[] record , Object/Object[] data )

You must return at least the database pk using the idProperty defined in your DataReader configuration. The incoming
data from server will be merged with the data in the local record.
In addition, you must return record-data from the server in the same order received.
Will perform a commit as well, un-marking dirty-fields. Store's "update" event will be suppressed. Parameters:
| DataReader | |
update( Record/Record[] rs , Object/Object[] data )
:
voidUsed for updating a non-phantom or "real" record's data with fresh data from server after remote-save.
If returning ... Used for updating a non-phantom or "real" record's data with fresh data from server after remote-save.
If returning data from multiple-records after a batch-update, you must return record-data from the server in
the same order received. Will perform a commit as well, un-marking dirty-fields. Store's "update" event will be
suppressed as the record receives fresh new data-hash Parameters:
