Methods

decodeAsync(str, batchopt) → {baja.Simple|Promise.<baja.Simple>}

Description:

  • The string encoding of certain Simples may include Type information, or
    other data that may be require asynchronous operations to decode. BOX is
    designed to handle these situations when decoding data from the station,
    but when user code needs to decode string-encoded Simples directly, prefer
    this method as it gives the individual Simple a chance to import Types,
    etc. to ensure that the decoded Simple is fully correct.

    The default implementation just returns decodeFromString directly.

Parameters:
Name Type Attributes Description
str string
batch baja.comm.Batch <optional>

optional batch to use
Returns:

may return the Simple instance
directly, or a Promise resolving to same - so wrap in Promise.resolve()
if unsure.

Type
baja.Simple | Promise.<baja.Simple>

decodeFromString(str) → {baja.Float}

Description:

  • Decode a Float from a String.

Source:
Overrides:
Parameters:
Name Type Description
str String

an encoded Float.
Returns:
Type
baja.Float

encodeToString() → {String}

Description:

  • Encode the Float (itself) to a String.

Source:
Overrides:
Returns:
Type
String

equals(obj) → {Boolean}

Description:

  • Equality test.

Source:
Overrides:
Parameters:
Name Type Description
obj
Returns:
Type
Boolean

equivalent(obj) → {Boolean}

Description:

  • Equivalence test.

    equivalent() is used to compare if two Objects have equivalent
    state, but might not want to return true for equals since it
    it has implied semantics for many operations. The default
    implementation returns the result of baja.Object#equals.

Parameters:
Name Type Description

Boolean

getAgents(isopt, batchopt) → {Promise}

Description:

  • Returns a promise that resolves to the agent list for this Object.

Parameters:
Name Type Attributes Description
is Array.<String> <optional>

An optional array of filters to add to the
agent query.
batch baja.comm.Batch <optional>

An optional object used to batch network
calls together.
Returns:

A promise that will resolve with the Agent Info.

Type
Promise

getDataTypeSymbol() → {String}

Description:

  • Return the data type symbol.

    Used for encoding this data type (primarily for facets).

Source:
Returns:
Type
String

getIcon() → {baja.Icon}

Description:

  • Return the Object's Icon.

See:
  • baja.Type#getDisplayName
Parameters:
Name Type Attributes Description
cx Object <optional>

a context to be passed down to Type
Returns:

If no context is provided, the type
display name is returned synchronously as a string. If context provided,
the type display name is resolved via a promise as a string.

make(val) → {baja.Float}

Description:

  • Make a Float.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
val Number

the number value.
Returns:
Type
baja.Float

newCopy(exactopt)

Description:

  • Every value may be cloned using the newCopy method.

    Please note that Simples are immutable so they don't
    allocate a new instance.

Source:

Parameters:
Name Type Attributes Description
exact Boolean <optional>

true if an exact copy of the value should be
made (only valid in the Component architecture).
Returns:

a copy of the value (or the same instance if the value is a
Simple).

Properties
Name Type Attributes Description
forceSign Boolean <optional>

specifying 'true' will concatenate a '+'
to the beginning of the number if positive.
precision Number <optional>

the number of decimal places to show in
the return string. Specifying '0' will also remove the decimal. If a context
is provided without precision, this value will default to 2. If no context
is provided, there will be no precision applied.
