Migration Notes/API Changes

This file tracks changes made to the Enyo API since the last public release. While this list should not be considered exhaustive, we hope it will provide useful guidance for those maintaining existing Enyo apps, as well as those planning new ones.

Since the release of Enyo 2.5.1.1, we have introduced support for resolution independence, a set of new abilities that allow apps to automatically scale themselves to run under different screen resolutions. Within Enyo core, this is achieved largely through code in the new Node module less-plugin-resolution-independence (under tools/minifier/node_modules) and in resolution.js, home of the new enyo.ri namespace.

In addition to the work on resolution independence, we have made the following API changes in Enyo core:

  • Added enyo.Loop, a run-loop based on requestAnimationFrame.

  • Added work-in-progress kinds enyo.BackgroundTaskManager, enyo.PriorityQueue, and enyo.SystemMonitor, and work-in-progress mixin enyo.TaskManagerSupport.

  • Added work-in-progress kind enyo.LightPanels and work-in-progress mixin enyo.ViewPreloadSupport.

  • In enyo.Animator, added complete() method.

  • In enyo.Control:

    • Added accessibility API for voice readout (text-to-speech). This includes configuration properties accessibilityLabel, accessibilityAlert, and accessibilityDisabled, along with their associated getter and setter methods.

    • Added renderOnShow property. If set to true, the control will not be rendered until its showing property has also been set to true.

    • Added second parameter (preventRooting) to renderInto().

  • In enyo.DataList, added new API method getVisibleControlRange() and related configuration property visibleThreshold.

  • In enyo.DataRepeater, added new selectionType property.

  • In enyo.gesture.drag, added configureHoldPulse(), which may be used to define custom hold events.

  • In enyo.Scroller, added stop() method.

  • In enyo.Scroller and enyo.TouchScrollStrategy, added remeasure() method.

  • In enyo.Select, added new configuration properties size, multiple, and disabled.

  • In enyo.SpriteAnimation, added support for JavaScript timing-based animation, which may be enabled by setting the new useCssAnimation flag to false.

  • In enyo.UiComponent, added getNextControl() method, which returns a control's next sibling control.
