I'm trying to work with a simple overlay component, and close this overlay if someone clicks outside of the overlay content:
<div class="overlay" {{action 'close' on='click'}}>
<div class="item">
<form {{action 'submit' on='submit'}}>
{{yield}}
{{#link-to closeRoute class="close"}}Close{{/link-to}}
</form>
</div>
</div>The component looks like this:
import Ember from 'ember';
export default Ember.Component.extend({
actions: {
submit: function() {
this.sendAction();
},
close: function(param) {
console.log(param); // -> undefined
console.log(this); // -> complete component object, no reference to the event?
// this.$("a.close").click();
}
}
});This works like advertised, however, I need to determine the target of the click event, because also clicks on the item and form will trigger this click(close) action.
Question: How can I access the (jQuery) event object which has a target from within the close action inside the component?
I am using EmberCLI, and Ember 1.9
I have found this to provide the required result:
export default Ember.Component.extend({
classNames: ['overlay-block'],
didInsertElement: function() {
var self = this;
self.$().click(function(e) {
if (self.$(e.target).hasClass("overlay-block")) {
self.$("a.close").click();
}
});
}
});This does not use an ember action like I expected. I'll leave the question open for a while to see if somebody comes up with an more 'Ember way' of doing this.
export default Ember.Component.extend({
classNames: ['overlay-block'],
click: function(e) {
if (this.$(e.target).hasClass("overlay-block")){
this.$("a.close").click();
}
}
