## Config Options

Config Options | Defined By
--- | ---
| api : Object Specific urls to call on CRUD action methods "read", "create", "update" and "destroy". Defaults to:api: { read ... Specific urls to call on CRUD action methods "read", "create", "update" and "destroy". Defaults to:
    api: {
        read    : undefined,
        create  : undefined,
        update  : undefined,
        destroy : undefined
    }
If the specific URL for a given CRUD action is undefined, the CRUD action request will be directed to the configured `url`. Note: To modify the URL for an action dynamically the appropriate API property should be modified before the action is requested using the corresponding before action event. For example to modify the URL associated with the load action:
    // modify the url for the action

    myStore.on({
        beforeload: {
            fn: function (store, options) {
                // use setUrl to change the URL for *just* this request.

                store.proxy.setUrl('changed1.php');

                // set optional second parameter to true to make this URL change

                // permanent, applying this URL for all subsequent requests.

                store.proxy.setUrl('changed1.php', true);

                // manually set the private connection URL.

                // Warning:  Accessing the private URL property should be avoided.

                // Use the public method setUrl instead, shown above.

                // It should be noted that changing the URL like this will affect

                // the URL for just this request.  Subsequent requests will use the

                // API or URL defined in your initial proxy configuration.

                store.proxy.conn.url = 'changed1.php';

                // proxy URL will be superseded by API (only if proxy created to use ajax):

                // It should be noted that proxy API changes are permanent and will

                // be used for all subsequent requests.

                store.proxy.api.load = 'changed2.php';

                // However, altering the proxy API should be done using the public

                // method setApi instead.

                store.proxy.setApi('load', 'changed2.php');

                // Or set the entire API with a config-object.

                // When using the config-object option, you must redefine the entire

                // API -- not just a specific action of it.

                store.proxy.setApi({
                    read    : 'changed_read.php',
                    create  : 'changed_create.php',
                    update  : 'changed_update.php',
                    destroy : 'changed_destroy.php'
                });
            }
        }
    });

A config object containing one or more event handlers to be added to this object during initialization. This should be a valid listeners config object as specified in the addListener example for attaching multiple handlers at once. DOM events from ExtJs Components While some ExtJs Component classes export selected DOM events (e.g. "click", "mouseover" etc), this is usually only done when extra value can be added. For example the DataView's `click` event passing the node clicked on. To access DOM events directly from a Component's HTMLElement, listeners must be added to the Element after the Component has been rendered. A plugin can simplify this step:
    // Plugin is configured with a listeners config object.
    // The Component is appended to the argument list of all handler functions.
    Ext.DomObserver = Ext.extend(Object, {
        constructor: function(config) {
            this.listeners = config.listeners ? config.listeners : config;
        },

        // Component passes itself into plugin's init method
        init: function(c) {
            var p, l = this.listeners;
            for (p in l) {
                if (Ext.isFunction(l[p])) {
                    l[p] = this.createHandler(l[p], c);
                } else {
                    l[p].fn = this.createHandler(l[p].fn, c);
                }
            }

            // Add the listeners to the Element immediately following the render call
            c.render = c.render.createSequence(function() {
                var e = c.getEl();
                if (e) {
                    e.on(l);
                }
            });
        },

        createHandler: function(fn, c) {
            return function(e) {
                fn.call(this, e, c);
            };
        }
    });

    var combo = new Ext.form.ComboBox({

        // Collapse combo when its element is clicked on
        plugins: [ new Ext.DomObserver({
            click: function(evt, comp) {
                comp.collapse();
            }
        })],
        store: myStore,
        typeAhead: true,
        mode: 'local',

A list of params to be executed server side. Specify the params in the order in which they must be executed on the server-side as either (1) an Array of String values, or (2) a String of params delimited by either whitespace, comma, or pipe. For example, any of the following would be acceptable:
    paramOrder: ['param1','param2','param3']
    paramOrder: 'param1 param2 param3'
    paramOrder: 'param1,param2,param3'
    paramOrder: 'param1|param2|param'

| restful : Boolean Defaults to false. Set to true to operate in a RESTful manner. Note: this parameter will automatically be set to t... Defaults to `false`. Set to `true` to operate in a RESTful manner. Note: this parameter will automatically be set to `true` if the Ext.data.Store it is plugged into is set to `restful: true`. If the Store is RESTful, there is no need to set this option on the proxy. RESTful implementations enable the serverside framework to automatically route actions sent to one url based upon the HTTP method, for example:
    store: new Ext.data.Store({
        restful: true,
        proxy: new Ext.data.HttpProxy({url:'/users'}); // all requests sent to /users

        ...
    )}
There is no `api` specified in the configuration of the proxy, all requests will be marshalled to a single RESTful url (/users) so the serverside framework can inspect the HTTP Method and act accordingly:
    Method   url        action
    POST     /users     create
    GET      /users     read
    PUT      /users/23  update
    DESTROY  /users/23  delete

- | addListener( `String eventName`, `Function handler`, [`Object scope`], [`Object options`] ) : void Appends an event handler to this object. Appends an event handler to this object. Parameters: `eventName` : String The name of the event to listen for. `handler` : Function The method the event invokes. `scope` : Object (optional) The scope (`this` reference) in which the handler function is executed. If omitted, defaults to the object which fired the event. `options` : Object (optional) An object containing handler configuration. properties. This may contain any of the following properties: scope : Object The scope (`this` reference) in which the handler function is executed. If omitted, defaults to the object which fired the event. delay : Number The number of milliseconds to delay the invocation of the handler after the event fires. single : Boolean True to add a handler to handle just the next firing of the event, and then remove itself. buffer : Number Causes the handler to be scheduled to run in an Ext.util.DelayedTask delayed by the specified number of milliseconds. If the event fires again within that time, the original handler is not invoked, but the new handler is scheduled in its place. target : Observable Only call the handler if the event was fired on the target Observable, not if the event was bubbled up from a child Observable. Combining Options Using the options argument, it is possible to combine different types of listeners: A delayed, one-time listener.

Returns true if the specified action is defined as a unique action in the api-config. request. If all API-actions are routed to unique urls, the xaction parameter is unecessary. However, if no api is defined and all Proxy actions are routed to DataProxy#url, the server-side will require the xaction parameter to perform a switch to the corresponding code for CRUD action. Parameters: `[Ext.data.Api.CREATE|READ|UPDATE|DESTROY]}` : String action Returns: `Boolean` | DataProxy

Listeners will be called with the following arguments: `this` : DataProxy The proxy for the request `params` : Object The params object passed to the request function | DataProxy
| beforewrite : ( `DataProxy this`, `String action`, `Record/Array[Record] rs`, `Object params` ) Fires before a request is generated for one of the actions Ext.data.Api.actions.create|update|destroy Fires before a request is generated for one of the actions Ext.data.Api.actions.create|update|destroy Listeners will be called with the following arguments: `this` : DataProxy The proxy for the request `action` : String [Ext.data.Api.actions.create|update|destroy] `rs` : Record/Array[Record] The Record(s) to create|update|destroy. `params` : Object The request `params` object. Edit `params` to add parameters to the request. | DataProxy
| exception : ( `DataProxy this`, `String type`, `String action`, `Object options`, `Object response`, `Mixed arg` ) Fires if an exception occurs in the Proxy during a remote request. This event is relayed through a corresponding Ex... Fires if an exception occurs in the Proxy during a remote request. This event is relayed through a corresponding Ext.data.Store.exception, so any Store instance may observe this event. This event can be fired for one of two reasons: remote-request failed : The server did not return status === 200. remote-request succeeded : The remote-request succeeded but the reader could not read the response. This means the server returned data, but the configured Reader threw an error while reading the response. In this case, this event will be raised and the caught error will be passed along into this event. This event fires with two different contexts based upon the 2nd parameter `type [remote|response]`. The first four parameters are identical between the two contexts -- only the final two parameters differ. Listeners will be called with the following arguments: `this` : DataProxy The proxy that sent the request `type` : String The value of this parameter will be either `'response'` or `'remote'`. `'response'` : An invalid response from the server was returned: either 404, 500 or the response meta-data does not match that defined in the DataReader (e.g.: root, idProperty, successProperty). `'remote'` : A valid response was returned from the server having successProperty === false. This response might contain an error-message sent from the server. For example, the user may have failed authentication/authorization or a database validation error occurred. `action` : String Name of the action (see Ext.data.Api.actions. `options` : Object The options for the action that were specified in the request. `response` : Object The value of this parameter depends on the value of the `type` parameter: `'response'` : The raw browser response object (e.g.: XMLHttpRequest) `'remote'` : The decoded response object sent from the server. `arg` : Mixed The type and value of this parameter depends on the value of the `type` parameter: `'response'` : Error The JavaScript Error object caught if the configured Reader could not read the data. If the remote request returns success===false, this parameter will be null. `'remote'` : Record/Record[] This parameter will only exist if the `action` was a write action (Ext.data.Api.actions.create|update|destroy). | DataProxy
| load : ( `DataProxy this`, `Object o`, `Object options` ) Fires before the load method's callback is called. Fires before the load method's callback is called. Listeners will be called with the following arguments: `this` : DataProxy The proxy for the request `o` : Object The request transaction object `options` : Object The callback's `options` property as passed to the request function | DataProxy

The signature of the loadexception event varies depending on the proxy, use the catch-all exception event instead. This event will fire in addition to the exception event. Listeners will be called with the following arguments: `misc` : misc See exception. | DataProxy
| write : ( `DataProxy this`, `String action`, `Object data`, `Object response`, `Record/Record{} rs`, `Object options` ) Fires before the request-callback is called Fires before the request-callback is called Listeners will be called with the following arguments: `this` : DataProxy The proxy that sent the request `action` : String [Ext.data.Api.actions.create|upate|destroy] `data` : Object The data object extracted from the server-response `response` : Object The decoded response from server `rs` : Record/Record{} The records from Store `options` : Object The callback's `options` property as passed to the request function | DataProxy
