Grid Auto-Refresh possible?

[rwillmer]

I've got my first widget working (hurrah!)

One final thing to get working, I need the data (loaded initially via Ajax) to auto-refresh every minute.

I can see ways to do this by editing the exported project files, but that means I can't use Ext Designer again, doesn't it?

Is this possible? Any pointers welcome.

Hi Rachel,

First off, congrats

The exported xds_* files are not necessarily meant to be used verbatim. They are only quick "preview" files, so you can load your exported components into ABC browser to preview them. The only true takeaway from your exported project are your component files (.ui.js and .js files for each component/store), which you would include into your application and use accordingly. The xds_* files do provide a good "jump start" to copy from of course.

Also, in your project preferences, you can uncheck "Export xds_* Files" and your xds_* files will no longer be exported/overwritten. That of course also means that they aren't updated if you add new top-level components to your project.

So with all of that in mind, you can of course get a reference to your store and reload it every minute:

var interval = setInterval(function() {
    var store = Ext.StoreMgr.lookup('myStoreId');
    store.reload();
}, 60000);

Hope that helps!

I was well pleased :-)

Right, that makes sense. It might be worth updating the "Getting Started" pdf with a section that says "How you use it when you've built it"

Oh yes! Thanks!
