- Project description:
- Enterprise Rich Internet Applications (RIAs) often focus more on rich data
- vs. the rich media aspects of RIAs more typical of consumer applications.
- For example, such RIAs depend on implementing the well-known CRUD operations
- on data stored in back-end systems. The dojox.mvc project focuses on
- separation of MVC concerns on the client, thereby on easing development
- of data-rich applications and accelerating the authoring of applications to
- Create, Read, Update, and Delete data using a set of Dojo-based patterns.
- This project is useful across form factors. For example, it may be used with
- dijit as well as dojox.mobile.
- We begin by introducing a first-class client-side data model based on
- dojo.Stateful and extending Dojo Form widgets with support for the
- Model-View-Control (MVC) pattern key to separating data from presentation in
- user interface design. This basic MVC pattern allows for the flexible reuse of
- each of the Model, View, and Control artifacts by application authors in
- varying configurations.
- We also add support for a set of commonly needed MVC widgets and containers
- such as:
- - Output: a data-bound output widget
- - Group: an aggregation of widgets with the same parent data binding context
- - Repeat: a model-bound repeater widget that binds to a data collection
- - Generate: an example of UI generation from a supplied data model
- For more, see descriptive class documentation at the top of the following
- files:
- dojox/mvc/StatefulModel.js
- dojox/mvc/_DataBindingMixin.js
- For an introductory page on the included samples, see:
- dojox/mvc/tests/mvc_index.html
- For mobile demos, see:
- dojox/mvc/tests/mobile/demo/demo.html
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Dependencies:
- Dojo Core (base, dojo.Stateful)
- Dijit (dijit._WidgetBase, dijit.form.*)
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Documentation:
- Documentation resides at:
- http://dojotoolkit.org/reference-guide/dojox/mvc.html
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Installation instructions:
- Grab the following from the Dojo SVN Repository:
- http://svn.dojotoolkit.org/src/dojox/trunk/mvc.js
- http://svn.dojotoolkit.org/src/dojox/trunk/mvc/*
- Install into the following directory structure:
- /dojox/mvc.js
- /dojox/mvc/*
- ...which should be at the same level as your Dojo checkout.
- then dojo.require("dojox.mvc") in your application to load basic support for
- data bindings. Other components (such as MVC containers i.e. Group, Repeat)
- should be required as per application need.
