The Uize.Population
module has been migrated to under the Uize.Widget
namespace as Uize.Widget.Population
.
MIGRATED
Uize.Population >> BECOMES >> Uize.Widget.Population
WHAT'S CHANGED
For the most part, the interface is entirely the same and compatible with the old interface, with some very minor differences. As a widget class now, instances of the Uize.Widget.Population
class must be wired (by calling the wireUi
instance method) before changing the value of the items
state property will result in an update of the contents of the instance's DOM node. Also, as a true widget class, instances of the Uize.Widget.Population
class can be added as child widgets of other widget instances. Finally, the DOM node into which generated HTML is injeted can now be specified with either of the idPrefix
, node
, or container
state properties. This change, which is not backwards compatible, has the benefit of further cleaning up the Uize
root namespace.
UPDATING YOUR CODE
The two examples that were previously using the now defunct Uize.Population
class, Populating Photo Details and Structured Record Population, have been updated to use the new Uize.Widget.Population
class. If you were previously using the Uize.Population
class, then you can use these two example pages as a reference when updating your own code.
