triggerAction (opts) Boolean
private
Send an action
with an actionContext
to a target
. The action, actionContext and target will be retrieved from properties of the object. For example:
App.SaveButtonView = Ember.View.extend(Ember.TargetActionSupport, { target: Ember.computed.alias('controller'), action: 'save', actionContext: Ember.computed.alias('context'), click() { this.triggerAction(); // Sends the `save` action, along with the current context // to the current controller } });
The target
, action
, and actionContext
can be provided as properties of an optional object argument to triggerAction
as well.
App.SaveButtonView = Ember.View.extend(Ember.TargetActionSupport, { click() { this.triggerAction({ action: 'save', target: this.get('controller'), actionContext: this.get('context') }); // Sends the `save` action, along with the current context // to the current controller } });
The actionContext
defaults to the object you are mixing TargetActionSupport
into. But target
and action
must be specified either as properties or with the argument to triggerAction
, or a combination:
App.SaveButtonView = Ember.View.extend(Ember.TargetActionSupport, { target: Ember.computed.alias('controller'), click() { this.triggerAction({ action: 'save' }); // Sends the `save` action, along with a reference to `this`, // to the current controller } });
Parameters:
-
opts
Object
- (optional, with the optional keys action, target and/or actionContext)
Returns:
-
Boolean
- true if the action was sent successfully and did not return false
