### Binding events
.on('event', callback);
.on('event', callback, context);
.on({
'event1': callback,
'event2': callback
});
.on('all', callback);
.once('event', callback); /* Only happens once */
### Unbinding events
object.off("change", onChange); // just the `onChange` callback
object.off("change"); // all "change" callbacks
object.off(null, onChange); // `onChange` callback for all events
object.off(null, null, context); // all callbacks for `context` all events
object.off(); // all
### Events
object.trigger('event')
view.listenTo(object, event, callback)
view.stopListening()
### List of events
* Collection:
* `add` (model, collection, options)
* `remove` (model, collection, options)
* `reset` (collection, options)
* `sort` (collection, options)
* Model:
* `change` (model, options)
* `change:[attr]` (model, value, options)
* `destroy` (model, collection, options)
* `error` (model, xhr, options)
* Model and collection:
* `request` (model, xhr, options)
* `sync` (model, resp, options)
* Router:
* `route:[name]` (params)
* `route` (router, route, params)
### Views
// All attributes are optional
var View = Backbone.View.extend({
model: doc,
tagName: 'div',
className: 'document-item',
id: "document-" + doc.id,
attributes: { href: '#' },
el: 'body',
events: {
'click button.save': 'save',
'click .cancel': function() { ... },
'click': 'onclick'
},
constructor: function() { ... },
render: function() { ... }
});
view = new View();
view = new View({ el: ... });
view.$el.show();
view.$("input");
view.remove();
view.delegateEvents();
view.undelegateEvents();
### Model
// All attributes are optional
var Model = Backbone.Model.extend({
defaults: {
'author': 'unknown'
},
idAttribute: '_id',
parse: function() {
}
});
var obj = new Model({ title: "Lolita", author: "Nabokov" });
var obj = new Model({ collection: ... });
obj.id
obj.cid //=> "c38" (client-side ID)
obj.clone()
obj.hasChanged('title')
obj.changedAttributes() /* false, or hash */
obj.previousAttributes() /* false, or hash */
obj.previous('title')
obj.isNew()
obj.set({ title: 'A Study in Pink' });
obj.set({ title: 'A Study in Pink' }, { validate: true, silent: true });
obj.unset('title')
obj.get('title')
obj.has('title')
obj.escape('title') /* Like .get() but HTML-escaped */
obj.clear()
obj.clear({ silent: true })
obj.save()
obj.save({ attributes })
obj.save(null, {
silent: true, patch: true, wait: true,
success: callback, error: callback
})
obj.destroy()
obj.destroy({
wait: true,
success: callback, error: callback
})
obj.toJSON()
obj.fetch()
obj.fetch({ success: callback, error: callback })
### Model: validation
var Model = Backbone.Model.extend({
validate: function(attrs, options) {
if (attrs.end < attrs.start) {
return "Can't end before it starts";
}
}
});
obj.validationError //=> "Can't end before it starts"
obj.isValid()
obj.on('invalid', function(model, error) { ... })
// Triggered on:
obj.save()
obj.set({...}, { validate: true })
### Model: custom URLs
var Model = Backbone.Model.extend({
// Single URL (string or function)
url: '/account',
url: function() { return '/account'; },
// Both of these two work the same way
url: function() { return '/books/' + this.id }),
urlRoot: '/books'
});
var obj = new Model({ url: ... });
var obj = new Model({ urlRoot: ... });
