Suggestion
Represents a singular suggestion that is tracked by track changes plugin.
Suggestion instances are created and handled by track changes plugin.
Properties
-
attributes : objectmodule:track-changes/suggestion~Suggestion#attributesCustom suggestion attributes. See also
setAttributeandremoveAttribute. -
author : Usermodule:track-changes/suggestion~Suggestion#authorThe author of the change marked by the suggestion.
-
authoredAt : null | Datemodule:track-changes/suggestion~Suggestion#authoredAtDate when the change marked by the suggestion was made.
Usually the same as
createdAtbut may be different in some cases (e.g. when suggestion was added from an external source). -
commentThread : null | CommentThreadmodule:track-changes/suggestion~Suggestion#commentThreadComment thread model for comments added to this suggestion.
-
createdAt : null | Datemodule:track-changes/suggestion~Suggestion#createdAtDate when the suggestion was saved in the database.
-
creator : Usermodule:track-changes/suggestion~Suggestion#creatorThe user which saved the suggestion data in the database.
Usually the same as author but may be different in some cases (e.g. when suggestion was added from an external source).
-
data : null | SuggestionFormatData | SuggestionAttributeDatamodule:track-changes/suggestion~Suggestion#dataAdditional suggestion data.
-
hasComments : booleanreadonlymodule:track-changes/suggestion~Suggestion#hasCommentsInforms whether suggestion has at least one comment.
-
head : Suggestionreadonlymodule:track-changes/suggestion~Suggestion#headThe first (most-previous) suggestion in this suggestion chain.
-
id : stringreadonlymodule:track-changes/suggestion~Suggestion#idSuggestion ID.
-
isExternal : booleanmodule:track-changes/suggestion~Suggestion#isExternalThe flag indicating whether the suggestion comes from an external source.
-
isInContent : booleanreadonlymodule:track-changes/suggestion~Suggestion#isInContentInforms whether the suggestion is still in the editor content.
Returns
trueif there is at least one marker suggestion in the editor content. -
isMultiRange : booleanreadonlymodule:track-changes/suggestion~Suggestion#isMultiRangeInforms whether the suggestion is a multi-range suggestion or a single-range suggestion.
This is evaluated basing on the marker name belonging to this suggestion. Even if only one marker belongs to the suggestion at a given time it can still be a multi range suggestion.
-
next : null | Suggestionmodule:track-changes/suggestion~Suggestion#nextNext suggestion in suggestions chain.
Chained suggestions should be handled as one entity.
-
previous : null | Suggestionmodule:track-changes/suggestion~Suggestion#previousPrevious suggestion in suggestions chain.
Chained suggestions should be handled as one entity.
-
subType : null | stringmodule:track-changes/suggestion~Suggestion#subTypeSuggestion sub-type.
This is an additional identifier for suggestions. Two suggestions of the same type may have different sub-types to differentiate suggestions behavior and handle interactions between suggestions.
Sub-type is used for:
- suggestions joining (only suggestions with the same sub-type can be joined),
- suggestions custom callbacks (fired when adding, deleting and joining suggestions).

bind( bindProperty1, bindProperty2 ) → ObservableDualBindChain<K1, Suggestion[ K1 ], K2, Suggestion[ K2 ]>inheritedmodule:track-changes/suggestion~Suggestion#bind:DUAL_BINDBinds observable properties to other objects implementing the
Observableinterface.Read more in the dedicated guide covering the topic of property bindings with some additional examples.
Consider two objects: a
buttonand an associatedcommand(bothObservable).A simple property binding could be as follows:
button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command, 'isEnabled' );Copy codeor even shorter:
button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command );Copy codewhich works in the following way:
button.isEnabledinstantly equalscommand.isEnabled,- whenever
command.isEnabledchanges,button.isEnabledwill immediately reflect its value.
Note: To release the binding, use
unbind.You can also "rename" the property in the binding by specifying the new name in the
to()chain:button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command, 'isWorking' );Copy codeIt is possible to bind more than one property at a time to shorten the code:
button.bind( 'isEnabled', 'value' ).to( command );Copy codewhich corresponds to:
button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command ); button.bind( 'value' ).to( command );Copy codeThe binding can include more than one observable, combining multiple data sources in a custom callback:
button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command, 'isEnabled', ui, 'isVisible', ( isCommandEnabled, isUIVisible ) => isCommandEnabled && isUIVisible );Copy codeUsing a custom callback allows processing the value before passing it to the target property:
button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).to( command, 'value', value => value === 'heading1' );Copy codeIt is also possible to bind to the same property in an array of observables. To bind a
buttonto multiple commands (alsoObservables) so that each and every one of them must be enabled for the button to become enabled, use the following code:button.bind( 'isEnabled' ).toMany( [ commandA, commandB, commandC ], 'isEnabled', ( isAEnabled, isBEnabled, isCEnabled ) => isAEnabled && isBEnabled && isCEnabled );Copy codeType parameters

decorate( methodName ) → voidinheritedmodule:track-changes/suggestion~Suggestion#decorateTurns the given methods of this object into event-based ones. This means that the new method will fire an event (named after the method) and the original action will be plugged as a listener to that event.
Read more in the dedicated guide covering the topic of decorating methods with some additional examples.
Decorating the method does not change its behavior (it only adds an event), but it allows to modify it later on by listening to the method's event.
For example, to cancel the method execution the event can be stopped:
class Foo extends ObservableMixin() { constructor() { super(); this.decorate( 'method' ); } method() { console.log( 'called!' ); } } const foo = new Foo(); foo.on( 'method', ( evt ) => { evt.stop(); }, { priority: 'high' } ); foo.method(); // Nothing is logged.Copy codeNote: The high priority listener has been used to execute this particular callback before the one which calls the original method (which uses the "normal" priority).
It is also possible to change the returned value:
foo.on( 'method', ( evt ) => { evt.return = 'Foo!'; } ); foo.method(); // -> 'Foo'Copy codeFinally, it is possible to access and modify the arguments the method is called with:
method( a, b ) { console.log( `${ a }, ${ b }` ); } // ... foo.on( 'method', ( evt, args ) => { args[ 0 ] = 3; console.log( args[ 1 ] ); // -> 2 }, { priority: 'high' } ); foo.method( 1, 2 ); // -> '3, 2'Copy codeParameters

set( values ) → voidinheritedmodule:track-changes/suggestion~Suggestion#set:OBJECTCreates and sets the value of an observable properties of this object. Such a property becomes a part of the state and is observable.
It accepts a single object literal containing key/value pairs with properties to be set.
This method throws the
observable-set-cannot-overrideerror if the observable instance already has a property with the given property name. This prevents from mistakenly overriding existing properties and methods, but means thatfoo.set( 'bar', 1 )may be slightly slower thanfoo.bar = 1.In TypeScript, those properties should be declared in class using
declarekeyword. In example:public declare myProp1: number; public declare myProp2: string; constructor() { this.set( { 'myProp1: 2, 'myProp2: 'foo' } ); }Copy codeParameters
values : objectAn object with
name=>valuepairs.
