search_box.js

(function() {

var $ = jQuery; // Handle namespaced jQuery

The search box is responsible for managing the many facet views and input views.

VS.ui.SearchBox = Backbone.View.extend({

  id  : 'search',

  events : {
    'click .VS-cancel-search-box' : 'clearSearch',
    'mousedown .VS-search-box'    : 'maybeFocusSearch',
    'dblclick .VS-search-box'     : 'highlightSearch',
    'click .VS-search-box'        : 'maybeTripleClick'
  },

Creating a new SearchBox registers handlers for re-rendering facets when necessary, as well as handling typing when a facet is selected.

  initialize : function() {
    this.app = this.options.app;
    this.flags = {
      allSelected : false
    };
    this.facetViews = [];
    this.inputViews = [];
    _.bindAll(this, 'renderFacets', '_maybeDisableFacets', 'disableFacets',
              'deselectAllFacets', 'addedFacet', 'removedFacet', 'changedFacet');
    this.app.searchQuery
            .bind('reset', this.renderFacets)
            .bind('add', this.addedFacet)
            .bind('remove', this.removedFacet)
            .bind('change', this.changedFacet);
    $(document).bind('keydown', this._maybeDisableFacets);
  },

Renders the search box, but requires placement on the page through this.el.

  render : function() {
    $(this.el).append(JST['search_box']({}));
    $(document.body).setMode('no', 'search');

    return this;
  },

Querying Facets

Either gets a serialized query string or sets the faceted query from a query string.

  value : function(query) {
    if (query == null) return this.serialize();
    return this.setQuery(query);
  },

Uses the VS.app.searchQuery collection to serialize the current query from the various facets that are in the search box.

  serialize : function() {
    var query           = [];
    var inputViewsCount = this.inputViews.length;

    this.app.searchQuery.each(_.bind(function(facet, i) {
      query.push(this.inputViews[i].value());
      query.push(facet.serialize());
    }, this));

    if (inputViewsCount) {
      query.push(this.inputViews[inputViewsCount-1].value());
    }

    return _.compact(query).join(' ');
  },

Takes a query string and uses the SearchParser to parse and render it. Note that VS.app.SearchParser refreshes the VS.app.searchQuery collection, which is bound here to call this.renderFacets.

  setQuery : function(query) {
    this.currentQuery = query;
    VS.app.SearchParser.parse(this.app, query);
  },

Returns the position of a facet/input view. Useful when moving between facets.

  viewPosition : function(view) {
    var views    = view.type == 'facet' ? this.facetViews : this.inputViews;
    var position = _.indexOf(views, view);
    if (position == -1) position = 0;
    return position;
  },

Used to launch a search. Hitting enter or clicking the search button.

  searchEvent : function(e) {
    var query = this.value();
    this.focusSearch(e);
    this.value(query);
    this.app.options.callbacks.search(query, this.app.searchQuery);
  },

Rendering Facets

Add a new facet. Facet will be focused and ready to accept a value. Can also specify position, in the case of adding facets from an inbetween input.

  addFacet : function(category, initialQuery, position) {
    category     = VS.utils.inflector.trim(category);
    initialQuery = VS.utils.inflector.trim(initialQuery || '');
    if (!category) return;
    
    var model = new VS.model.SearchFacet({
      category : category,
      value    : initialQuery || '',
      app      : this.app
    });
    this.app.searchQuery.add(model, {at: position});
  },

Renders a newly added facet, and selects it.

  addedFacet : function (model) {
    this.renderFacets();
    var facetView = _.detect(this.facetViews, function(view) {
      if (view.model == model) return true;
    });

    _.defer(function() {
      facetView.enableEdit();
    });
  },

Changing a facet programmatically re-renders it.

  changedFacet: function () {
    this.renderFacets();
  },

When removing a facet, potentially do something. For now, the adjacent remaining facet is selected, but this is handled by the facet's view, since its position is unknown by the time the collection triggers this remove callback.

  removedFacet : function (facet, query, options) {},

Renders each facet as a searchFacet view.

  renderFacets : function() {
    this.facetViews = [];
    this.inputViews = [];

    this.$('.VS-search-inner').empty();

    this.app.searchQuery.each(_.bind(this.renderFacet, this));

Add on an n+1 empty search input on the very end.

    this.renderSearchInput();
  },

Render a single facet, using its category and query value.

  renderFacet : function(facet, position) {
    var view = new VS.ui.SearchFacet({
      app   : this.app,
      model : facet,
      order : position
    });

Input first, facet second.

    this.renderSearchInput();
    this.facetViews.push(view);
    this.$('.VS-search-inner').children().eq(position*2).after(view.render().el);

    view.calculateSize();
    _.defer(_.bind(view.calculateSize, view));

    return view;
  },

Render a single input, used to create and autocomplete facets

  renderSearchInput : function() {
    var input = new VS.ui.SearchInput({
      position: this.inputViews.length, 
      app: this.app,
      showFacets: this.options.showFacets
    });
    this.$('.VS-search-inner').append(input.render().el);
    this.inputViews.push(input);
  },

Modifying Facets

Clears out the search box. Command+A + delete can trigger this, as can a cancel button.

If a clearSearch callback was provided, the callback is invoked and provided with a function performs the actual removal of the data. This allows third-party developers to either clear data asynchronously, or prior to performing their custom "clear" logic.

  clearSearch : function(e) {
    var actualClearSearch = _.bind(function() {
      this.disableFacets();
      this.value('');
      this.flags.allSelected = false;
      this.searchEvent(e);
      this.focusSearch(e);
    }, this);

    if (this.app.options.callbacks.clearSearch) {
      this.app.options.callbacks.clearSearch(actualClearSearch);
    } else {
      actualClearSearch();
    }
  },

Command+A selects all facets.

  selectAllFacets : function() {
    this.flags.allSelected = true;

    $(document).one('click.selectAllFacets', this.deselectAllFacets);

    _.each(this.facetViews, function(facetView, i) {
      facetView.selectFacet();
    });
    _.each(this.inputViews, function(inputView, i) {
      inputView.selectText();
    });
  },

Used by facets and input to see if all facets are currently selected.

  allSelected : function(deselect) {
    if (deselect) this.flags.allSelected = false;
    return this.flags.allSelected;
  },

After selectAllFacets is engaged, this method is bound to the entire document. This immediate disables and deselects all facets, but it also checks if the user has clicked on either a facet or an input, and properly selects the view.

  deselectAllFacets : function(e) {
    this.disableFacets();

    if (this.$(e.target).is('.category,input')) {
      var el   = $(e.target).closest('.search_facet,.search_input');
      var view = _.detect(this.facetViews.concat(this.inputViews), function(v) {
        return v.el == el[0];
      });
      if (view.type == 'facet') {
        view.selectFacet();
      } else if (view.type == 'input') {
        _.defer(function() {
          view.enableEdit(true);
        });
      }
    }
  },

Disables all facets except for the passed in view. Used when switching between facets, so as not to have to keep state of active facets.

  disableFacets : function(keepView) {
    _.each(this.inputViews, function(view) {
      if (view && view != keepView &&
          (view.modes.editing == 'is' || view.modes.selected == 'is')) {
        view.disableEdit();
      }
    });
    _.each(this.facetViews, function(view) {
      if (view && view != keepView &&
          (view.modes.editing == 'is' || view.modes.selected == 'is')) {
        view.disableEdit();
        view.deselectFacet();
      }
    });

    this.flags.allSelected = false;
    this.removeFocus();
    $(document).unbind('click.selectAllFacets');
  },

Resize all inputs to account for extra keystrokes which may be changing the facet width incorrectly. This is a safety check to ensure inputs are correctly sized.

  resizeFacets : function(view) {
    _.each(this.facetViews, function(facetView, i) {
      if (!view || facetView == view) {
        facetView.resize();
      }
    });
  },

Handles keydown events on the document. Used to complete the Cmd+A deletion, and blurring focus.

  _maybeDisableFacets : function(e) {
    if (this.flags.allSelected && VS.app.hotkeys.key(e) == 'backspace') {
      e.preventDefault();
      this.clearSearch(e);
      return false;
    } else if (this.flags.allSelected && VS.app.hotkeys.printable(e)) {
      this.clearSearch(e);
    }
  },

Focusing Facets

Move focus between facets and inputs. Takes a direction as well as many options for skipping over inputs and only to facets, placement of cursor position in facet (i.e. at the end), and selecting the text in the input/facet.

  focusNextFacet : function(currentView, direction, options) {
    options = options || {};
    var viewCount    = this.facetViews.length;
    var viewPosition = options.viewPosition || this.viewPosition(currentView);

    if (!options.skipToFacet) {

Correct for bouncing between matching text and facet arrays.

      if (currentView.type == 'text'  && direction > 0) direction -= 1;
      if (currentView.type == 'facet' && direction < 0) direction += 1;
    } else if (options.skipToFacet && currentView.type == 'text' &&
               viewCount == viewPosition && direction >= 0) {

Special case of looping around to a facet from the last search input box.

      viewPosition = 0;
      direction    = 0;
    }
    var view, next = Math.min(viewCount, viewPosition + direction);

    if (currentView.type == 'text') {
      if (next >= 0 && next < viewCount) {
        view = this.facetViews[next];
      } else if (next == viewCount) {
        view = this.inputViews[this.inputViews.length-1];
      }
      if (view && options.selectFacet && view.type == 'facet') {
        view.selectFacet();
      } else if (view) {
        view.enableEdit();
        view.setCursorAtEnd(direction || options.startAtEnd);
      }
    } else if (currentView.type == 'facet') {
      if (options.skipToFacet) {
        if (next >= viewCount || next < 0) {
          view = _.last(this.inputViews);
          view.enableEdit();
        } else {
          view = this.facetViews[next];
          view.enableEdit();
          view.setCursorAtEnd(direction || options.startAtEnd);
        }
      } else {
        view = this.inputViews[next];
        view.enableEdit();
      }
    }
    if (options.selectText) view.selectText();
    this.resizeFacets();
  },

  maybeFocusSearch : function(e) {
    if ($(e.target).is('.VS-search-box') ||
        $(e.target).is('.VS-search-inner') ||
        e.type == 'keydown') {
      this.focusSearch(e);
    }
  },

Bring focus to last input field.

  focusSearch : function(e, selectText) {
    var view = this.inputViews[this.inputViews.length-1];
    view.enableEdit(selectText);
    if (!selectText) view.setCursorAtEnd(-1);
    if (e.type == 'keydown') {
      view.keydown(e);
      view.box.trigger('keydown');
    }
    _.defer(_.bind(function() {
      if (!this.$('input:focus').length) {
        view.enableEdit(selectText);
      }
    }, this));
  },

Double-clicking on the search wrapper should select the existing text in the last search input. Also start the triple-click timer.

  highlightSearch : function(e) {
    if ($(e.target).is('.VS-search-box') ||
        $(e.target).is('.VS-search-inner') ||
        e.type == 'keydown') {
      var lastinput = this.inputViews[this.inputViews.length-1];
      lastinput.startTripleClickTimer();
      this.focusSearch(e, true);
    }
  },

  maybeTripleClick : function(e) {
    var lastinput = this.inputViews[this.inputViews.length-1];
    return lastinput.maybeTripleClick(e);
  },

Used to show the user is focused on some input inside the search box.

  addFocus : function() {
    this.app.options.callbacks.focus();
    this.$('.VS-search-box').addClass('VS-focus');
  },

User is no longer focused on anything in the search box.

  removeFocus : function() {
    this.app.options.callbacks.blur();
    var focus = _.any(this.facetViews.concat(this.inputViews), function(view) {
      return view.isFocused();
    });
    if (!focus) this.$('.VS-search-box').removeClass('VS-focus');
  },

Show a menu which adds pre-defined facets to the search box. This is unused for now.

  showFacetCategoryMenu : function(e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    e.stopPropagation();
    if (this.facetCategoryMenu && this.facetCategoryMenu.modes.open == 'is') {
      return this.facetCategoryMenu.close();
    }

    var items = [
      {title: 'Account', onClick: _.bind(this.addFacet, this, 'account', '')},
      {title: 'Project', onClick: _.bind(this.addFacet, this, 'project', '')},
      {title: 'Filter', onClick: _.bind(this.addFacet, this, 'filter', '')},
      {title: 'Access', onClick: _.bind(this.addFacet, this, 'access', '')}
    ];

    var menu = this.facetCategoryMenu || (this.facetCategoryMenu = new dc.ui.Menu({
      items       : items,
      standalone  : true
    }));

    this.$('.VS-icon-search').after(menu.render().open().content);
    return false;
  }

});

})();
