Hooks¶
Owl hooks are a way to factorize code, even if it depends on some component lifecycle. Most hooks provided by Owl are related to the lifecycle of a component, but some of them (such as useComponent) provide a way to build specific hooks.
Using these hooks, it is possible to build many customized hooks that help solve a specific problem, or make some common tasks easier. The rest of this page documents the list of hooks provided by the Odoo web framework.
Name |
Short Description |
---|---|
load assets |
|
focus automatically an element referenced by autofocus |
|
subscribe and unsubscribe to a bus |
|
Display the pager of the control panel of a view. |
|
position an element relative to a target |
|
activate spellcheck on focus for input or textarea |
useAssets¶
Location¶
@web/core/assets
Description¶
See the section on lazy loading assets for more details.
useAutofocus¶
Location¶
@web/core/utils/hooks
Description¶
Focus an element referenced by a t-ref=”autofocus” in the current component as soon as it appears in the DOM and if it was not displayed before.
import { useAutofocus } from "@web/core/utils/hooks";
class Comp {
setup() {
this.inputRef = useAutofocus();
}
static template = "Comp";
}
<t t-name="Comp">
<input t-ref="autofocus" type="text"/>
</t>
API¶
- useAutofocus()¶
- 반환
the element reference.
useBus¶
Location¶
@web/core/utils/hooks
Description¶
Add and clear an event listener to a bus. This hook ensures that the listener is properly cleared when the component is unmounted.
import { useBus } from "@web/core/utils/hooks";
class MyComponent {
setup() {
useBus(this.env.bus, "some-event", event => {
console.log(event);
});
}
}
API¶
- useBus(bus, eventName, callback)¶
- 인수
bus (
EventBus()
) – the target event buseventName (
string()
) – the name of the event that we want to listen tocallback (
function()
) – listener callback
usePager¶
Location¶
@web/search/pager_hook
Description¶
Display the Pager of the control panel of a view. This hooks correctly sets env.config
to provide the props to the pager.
import { usePager } from "@web/search/pager_hook";
class CustomView {
setup() {
const state = owl.hooks.useState({
offset: 0,
limit: 80,
total: 50,
});
usePager(() => {
return {
offset: this.state.offset,
limit: this.state.limit,
total: this.state.total,
onUpdate: (newState) => {
Object.assign(this.state, newState);
},
};
});
}
}
API¶
- usePager(getPagerProps)¶
- 인수
getPagerProps (
function()
) – function that returns the pager props.
usePosition¶
Location¶
@web/core/position_hook
Description¶
Helps positioning an HTMLElement (the popper
) relatively to another
HTMLElement (the reference
). This hook ensures the positioning is updated when
the window is resized/scrolled.
import { usePosition } from "@web/core/position_hook";
class MyPopover extends owl.Component {
setup() {
// Here, the reference is the target props, which is an HTMLElement
usePosition(this.props.target);
}
}
MyPopover.template = owl.tags.xml`
<div t-ref="popper">
I am positioned through a wonderful hook!
</div>
`;
중요
You should indicate your popper
element using a t-ref directive.
API¶
- usePosition(reference[, options])¶
- 인수
reference (
HTMLElement or ()=>HTMLElement()
) – the target HTMLElement to be positioned fromoptions (
Options()
) – the positioning options (see table below)
Option |
Type |
Description |
---|---|---|
|
string |
this is a useRef reference for the element that will get positioned.
Default is |
|
HTMLElement |
the container from which the popper is expected not to overflow. If
overflowing occurs, other popper positions are tried until a not
overflowing one is found. (default: the |
|
number |
added margin between popper and reference elements (default: |
|
Direction[-Variant] |
the desired position. It is a string composed of one |
|
(el: HTMLElement, position: PositioningSolution) => void |
a callback that will be called everytime a positioning occurs
(e.g. on component mounted/patched, document scroll, window resize…).
Can be used i.e. for dynamic styling regarding the current position.
The |
Example
import { usePosition } from "@web/core/position_hook";
class DropMenu extends owl.Component {
setup() {
const toggler = owl.useRef("toggler");
usePosition(
() => toggler.el,
{
popper: "menu",
position: "right-start",
onPositioned: (el, { direction, variant }) => {
el.classList.add(`dm-${direction}`); // -> "dm-top" "dm-right" "dm-bottom" "dm-left"
el.style.backgroundColor = variant === "middle" ? "red" : "blue";
},
},
);
}
}
DropMenu.template = owl.tags.xml`
<button t-ref="toggler">Toggle Menu</button>
<div t-ref="menu">
<t t-slot="default">
This is the menu default content.
</t>
</div>
`;
useSpellCheck¶
Location¶
@web/core/utils/hooks
Description¶
Activate the spellcheck state to an input or textarea on focus by a t-ref="spellcheck"
in
the current component. This state is then removed on blur, as well as the red outline, which
improves readability of the content.
The hook can also be used on any HTML element with the contenteditable
attribute. To disable
spellcheck completely on elements that might be enabled by the hook, set explicitly the
spellcheck
attribute as false
on the element.
Example
In the following example, the spellcheck will be enabled on the first input, the textarea and
the div with contenteditable="true"
.
import { useSpellCheck } from "@web/core/utils/hooks";
class Comp {
setup() {
this.simpleRef = useSpellCheck();
this.customRef = useSpellCheck({ refName: "custom" });
this.nodeRef = useSpellCheck({ refName: "container" });
}
static template = "Comp";
}
<t t-name="Comp">
<input t-ref="spellcheck" type="text"/>
<textarea t-ref="custom"/>
<div t-ref="container">
<input type="text" spellcheck="false"/>
<div contenteditable="true"/>
</div>
</t>
API¶
- useSpellCheck([options])¶
- 인수
options (
Options()
) – the spellcheck options (see table below)
Option |
Type |
Description |
---|---|---|
|
string |
this is a useRef reference for the element that will be spellcheck enabled. |
