What is the most effective method for displaying error messages in Extjs?

I am currently using the store.synch() method to post data, with validation being done on the server side. I am currently displaying error messages in a message box, but I want to explore alternative ways to show errors without having to use markInvalid(). Using markInvalid() would require me to make changes to every JavaScript file and API. Is there any other alternative to markInvalid() that I can consider?

Answer №1

One of the features provided by Extjs data store is its built-in listeners, including the exception listener (specific to ExtJs versions prior to 3.x).

Below is an example of how this listener can be implemented in code:

listeners: { //Exception Handler for the Ajax Request
    exception: function(proxy, response, operation){
        var error = Ext.decode(response.responseText);
        Ext.MessageBox.show({
            title: 'REMOTE EXCEPTION',
            msg: error.message,
            icon: Ext.MessageBox.ERROR,
            buttons: Ext.Msg.OK
        });
    }
}

In addition, there seems to be some confusion about the markInvalid() method.

Greetings Naresh Tank, I have come up with a solution to address your issue by monitoring all ajax requests. This approach allows you to customize the error message regardless of whether it originates from a store or a form.

I trust that this will be beneficial to you.

Here is the code snippet from app.js:

init: function() {
    this.addAjaxErrorHandler(this);
},
addAjaxErrorHandler: function(object) {
    Ext.Ajax.on('requestexception', function(conn, response, options, e) {

        var statusCode = response.status,
            errorText = null,
            captionText = response.statusText;

        if (statusCode === 0 || statusCode === 401) {
            Ext.Ajax.abortAll();
        }
        if(response.statusText==="Authorization Required"){
                Ext.Ajax.abortAll();
        }
        // 404 - file or method not found - special case
        if (statusCode == 404) {
            Ext.MessageBox.alert('Error 404', 'URL ' + response.request.options.url + ' not found');
            return;
        }

        if (response.responseText !== undefined) {
            var r = Ext.decode(response.responseText, true);

            if (r !== null) {

                errorText = r.ErrorMessage;
            }

            if (errorText === null)
                errorText = response.responseText;
        }

        if (!captionText)
            captionText = 'Error ' + statusCode;

        Ext.MessageBox.alert(captionText, errorText);
    },
                object);
    Ext.Ajax.on('requestcomplete', function(conn, response, options, e) {

        var statusCode = response.status,
            errorText = null,
            captionText = response.statusText;

        if (response.responseText !== undefined) {
            var r = Ext.decode(response.responseText, true);

            if (r !== null && r.success === false) {
                try{
                    if(typeof r.data[0].idUsr !== 'undefined')
                        return;
                }catch(e){}
                errorText = r.msg;

                if (errorText === null)
                    errorText = response.responseText;
                if (!captionText)
                    captionText = 'Error ' + statusCode;

                Ext.MessageBox.alert(captionText, errorText);
            }
        }
    },
                object);

};
