Method Overview

Method Details

classes(classNames){String}inherited

Since: ArcGIS API for JavaScript 4.7

A utility method used for building the value for a widget's class property. This aids in simplifying CSS class setup.

Prior to version 4.7, there were various approaches towards setting CSS classes. These were dependent upon variables, such as whether the classes were:

• a single static class,
• multiple static classes, or
• dynamic classes.

This helper method takes all of these approaches into account and simplifies it to use one single pattern to accommodate these multiple approaches.

Parameter:

classNames Array<(String|String[]|Object)> repeatable The class names.

Returns:

Type	Description
String	The computed class name.

• Guide - Widget development (rendering)

Example:

// .tsx syntax showing how to set CSS classes while rendering the widget
render() {
  const dynamicIconClasses = {
    [CSS.myIcon]: this.showIcon,
    [CSS.greyIcon]: !this.showIcon
  };

  return (
    <div class={classes(CSS.root, CSS.mixin, dynamicIconClasses)} />
  );
}

destroy()inherited

Destroys the widget instance.

emit(type, event)inherited

Emits an event on the instance. This method should only be used when creating subclasses of this class.

Parameters:

type String The name of the event.

event Object The event payload.

hasEventListener(type){Boolean}inherited

Parameter:

type String The name of the event.
