EQ.core namespace
Contains different classes and functions for managing core EasyQuery objects: data model, query, entities, attributes, operators, etc.
Variables
texts
Type:Object
Default:{Entities: {}, Attributes: {}, Operators: {}}
Contains the text strings that are used in the UI divided by 3 lists. By default the internal (English) list of strings is used.
Note:These lists are usually used to localize the UI.
constLists
Type:Object

Functions
getText
Returns:
(String)
Text of the resource defined by key
Returns localized text by the key defined in parameters
Parameters:
key
Type:String
The key of the resource string.
Code examples:
Here we get the text of the resource string assigned to CmdClickToAddCondition key
var text = EQ.core.getText("CmdClickToAddCondition")

getObject
Gets internal query object.
setObject

Parameters:
data
Type:Object | String
Internal query representation as pure JavaScript object or as JSON string
getModel

toJSON
Returns JSON representation of this query.
isEmptyConditions
Returns true if query does not contain any condition.
clear

"expr" : {
"typeName" : "ENTATTR",
"id" : "Customers.Company"
}
}
index
Type:Number
The index of new column
moveColumn
Moves the column with specified index to another position.
Parameters:
index1
Type:Number
The index of the column that should be moved.
index2
Type:Number
The index of the position the column should be moved to
removeColumn
Removes the column.
Parameters:
column
Type:Object
The column to be removed.
addChangedCallback
Adds a handler for “query changed” event.
Parameters:
callback
Type:Function
The function that will be called when query is changed.
This function can take one parameter - the object which contains information what change exactly occurred.
changeType
Type:String
Contains the reason of change. The value consists of two parts separated by dot.
