How do i call Model'smethod in tpl?

[clozeboy]

Hi there,

My model has a very complex function , like this

 
getFullName: function() {           
     returnthis.get(display_as');
}

how do i call it inside a itemTpl? i tried this but failed {getFullName()}

Thanks

Are we in a list or a regular component?

in a list

Check out the XTemplate doc: http://docs.sencha.com/touch/2-0/#!/api/Ext.XTemplate

Towards the bottom, there's one section about "Execute arbitrary inline code..." and one about "Template member functions". Maybe one of those will help?

thanks for the reply, but i want to use member functions from the model itself instead of xtemplate's inline functions.

thanks for the reply, but i want to use member functions from the model itself instead of xtemplate's inline functions.

Here is a little test case:

new Ext.dataview.List({
    fullscreen : true,
    store      : new Ext.data.Store({
        fields : ['firstName', 'lastName'],
        data   : [
            { firstName : 'Mitchell', lastName : 'Simoens' }
        ]
    }),
    itemTpl    : new Ext.XTemplate(
        '{firstName} {lastName} -> {[this.fullName(values)]}',
        {
            fullName : function(values) {
                return values.lastName + ', ' + values.firstName;
            }
        }
    )
});

No, i dont want to use' XTemplate's inline methods.

I rather want to you use Model's inner method.

Here is pseudo code of my problem:

Model Code

Mode{
    fields : [some fileds],
    getComplexValue(){
    }
}

View Class

View{
     xtype: 'list',
     itemTpl: 'here is {getComplexValue()}'
}

I hope my situation is clear now
Thanks

So call it from the template method. Issue is you don't have access to the record, just it's data.

[clozeboy]

and how do i do that? (call Model's method via XTemplate's method)
sorry for my noobish questions, its my 3rd day with sencha .

As I said, you don't have access to the record, just it's data.
