Anatomy of a Enyo Application– appinfo.json • Standard webOS application metadata, not needed for use in browser– index.html • Initial page loaded by system manager, pulls in enyo framework and creates app object– depends.js • Loaded by enyo.js, JS code to declare what other files are needed for your app– app.js • Main application object– app.css • Any styles needed specifically for your application8 © 2011 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P. Confidential

appinfo.json{ "id": "com.palmdts.enyo.helloworld“, "version": "1.0.0", "vendor": "HP“, "type": "web“, "main": "index.html“, "title": "Enyo HelloWorld“, "icon": "icon.png“, "uiRevision": 2 }– “main” could direct to a different HTML file– Lots more options documented on developer.palm.com9 © 2011 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P. Confidential

depends.jsenyo.depends( "HelloWorld.js", "HelloWorld.css", "app/");– Supports loading both individual JS and CSS files as well as pointing to directories that have their own depends.js file.– Strings support expansion of $enyo variable to refer to root of framework tree for loading extension modules or themes.10 © 2011 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P. Confidential

index.html<!doctype html> <html><head> <title>enyo HelloWorld</title> <script src="../../../framework/enyo.js”></script> </head> <body> <script type="text/javascript"> new enyo.Canon.HelloWorld(). renderInto(document.body); </script> </body></html>– Can add launch=“debug” to <script> tag to load all framework source11 © 2011 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P. Confidential

app.jsenyo.kind({ name: "enyo.Canon.HelloWorld", kind: enyo.Control, content: "Hello World!"});– Very simple example, this app is just a <div> with “Hello, World!” as its content– Key idea is that your app is a enyo.kind and other code renders it into the page– First kind to be rendered has special powers with handling application- level events12 © 2011 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P. Confidential

Kinds and Inheritance– Each kind has a parent kind– When overridding a method from parent, can call this.inherited(arguments) to call parent’s implementation– enyo.Object is base of the tree– Implements a property system to allow setting object values on instantiation with setPROP/getPROP/PROPchanged methods– enyo.Component is base of all items that go into app tree– Components can own a nested collection of objects– Components have a “$” hash of all owned objects by name, e.g. this.$.button.setEnabled(true)16 © 2011 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P. Confidential

Example of Application Structurecomponents: [ {kind: "AppMenu", components: [ {caption: "Show on One Page", onclick: "showOnePage"}]}, {kind: "VFlexBox", width: "320px", style: "border-right: 1px solid gray;", components: [ {kind: "RadioGroup", style: "padding: 10px;", onChange: "radioGroupChange", components: [ {caption: "Packages", flex: 1}, {caption: "Index", flex: 1} ]}, {kind: "Pane", flex: 1, onclick: "tocClick", className: "selectable", domAttributes: {"enyo-pass-events": true},……19 © 2011 Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.
