How to get data from xml by using URL

I have a grid where I am loading the data from the data store. Bu using some url. Code is something like that.
var store = new Ext.data.Store({
proxy : new Ext.data.HttpProxy({
method: 'GET',
url: SomeURL
}),
remoteSort:true,
method: 'GET',
baseParams: {start: 0, limit: 25},
sortInfo:{
field: 'UPDATEDON',
direction: 'DESC'
},
reader: new Ext.data.XmlReader({
totalProperty:'#Total',
record: 'ITEM'
}, [ {name:'name',type:'string', mapping:'#name',SortType:"asUCString"},
{name:'value', mapping:'#value'}
]),
grid:this,
listener : {
load:function(){
}
}
This is loading correctly. No problem in grid. I need to access grid data at some other place in my code. so for that I am call
`var xyz = new MyGrid({val:1,newval:2});`
val and newVal are the two para for grid. But I am not getting store and store value here. Is there anyway I can get store here or get the xml value by using the same url again.

You can set in your store autoLoad: true - if it is already binded/set with this new Grid.
Or just say xyz.store.reload();
Reloads the store using the last options passed to the load method.
You can get the data form xyz.store.
How to get the information from a store depends on you and what you have there stored. You can use 'find', 'findBy', 'each' and so on (senscha doc extjs V3.4)

Save nested form data back to server in ExtJS

I have a Model that contains an association to another Model. I am able to display the nested data into a form by using the mapping attribute on the field. Example:
Ext.define('Example.model.Request', {
extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
fields: [
{
name: 'id',
type: Ext.data.Types.NUMBER,
useNull: false
}
{
name: 'plan_surveyor',
mapping: 'plan.surveyor',
type: Ext.data.Types.STRING
}
],
associations: [
{type: 'hasOne', associationKey: 'plan', getterName:'getPlan', model: 'Specs.model.Plan'}
],
proxy: {
type: 'direct',
api: {
read: requestController.load,
update: requestController.update,
},
reader: {
type: 'json',
root: 'records'
},
writer: {
type: 'json',
writeAllFields: true,
nameProperty: 'mapping'
}
}
});
Using this method, I can display the plan.surveyor value in the form by reference plan_surveyor. I call Form.loadRecord(model) to pull the data from the model into the form.
However, now that I'm trying to send the data back to the server, I get the error:
Error performing action. Please report the following: "Unrecognized field "plan.surveyor"
I am attempting to save to the server by first calling Form.updateRecord(model), then model.save(). Is there a way to have the Writer understand that 'plan.surveyor' is not a property name but instead to properly handle nesting?
Am I doing this the right way to start with, or should I just be handling the setting of the form data and loading back into the model in a more manual fashion? It seems that nested data is not all that well supported in general - any recommendations?

Ext.define('Example.model.Request', {
extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
fields: [
{
name: 'id',
type: Ext.data.Types.NUMBER,
useNull: false
}
{
name: 'plan_surveyor',
mapping: 'plan.surveyor',//change to 'plan_surveyor'
type: Ext.data.Types.STRING
}
],
change that show in comment ,because data index is given in above format because ur give ur format thata time that is not dataindex it's a column or extjs preparatory ,so please change that may it's work well
it's not work u will send hole code

Sencha Touch 2 array parsing

I'm new to sencha touch and I'm trying to parse an array of data (this doesn't seem like an uncommon use case but I can't find anything about it online). I followed the sencha ext.data.reader.json doc on nested json, but it doesn't work. Here are my models:
Search Results (to hold multiple search results):
Ext.define('GS.model.SearchResults', {
extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
autoLoad: true,
config: {
fields: [
{name: 'query', type: 'string'},
],
hasMany : {model: 'SearchResult', name: 'results'},
}
});
And search result, to hold an individual search result
Ext.define('GS.model.SearchResult', {
extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
config: {
fields: [
{name: 'id', type: 'int'},
{name: 'name', type: 'string'}
],
belongsTo: 'SearchResults'
}
});
Then in my controller, I have this code:
var store = Ext.create('Ext.data.Store', {
autoLoad: "true",
model: "GS.model.SearchResults",
proxy:
{
type: 'ajax',
url : 'www.someurl.com/?query=somequery',
reader: {
type: 'json'
}
}
});
store.load({
callback: function() {
console.log("Done Loading");
var root = store.first();
console.log("Results for " + root.get('query')); //this prints correctly
console.log(root.results());//THIS IS THE LINE IM INTERESTED IN
console.log(root.raw.results);//this weirdly works
//now I want to print each search results name
root.results().each(function(result) {
console.log("Song: " + result.get('name'));
});
}
});
}
When I log root.results(), I get
Uncaught TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method 'results'
This is exactly how they do it in the docs, so does anyone know why this isnt working???
Edit: Here is the doc I was following

The best way to check your error is to debug in chrome console. After callback you will find your records in root.raw or root.data.
I use to debug in chrome console and write the required code.

After some painful trial and error, I figured it out. In the tutorial, they used unconventional model name, but in my case I needed to use the fully qualified one
So to fix I needed to change
hasMany : {model: 'SearchResult', name: 'results'},
to
hasMany : {model: 'GS.model.SearchResult', name: 'results'},
and same with my deeper model like this:
belongsTo: 'GS.model.SearchResults'
Tough error to catch, but I hope this can help someone else in my position

Map ExtJS Proxy AJAX response to model

UPDATE:
here is my reader/store - not sure what to add to the reader to make this work
Ext.define('YT.store.Videos', {
extend: 'Ext.data.Store',
model: 'YT.model.Video',
autoLoad: true,
proxy: {
type: 'ajax',
url: 'https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos',
reader: {
type: 'json',
root: 'feed',
record: 'entry',
successProperty: 'success'
},
listeners: {
exception: function(store, response, app){
console.log('exception...');
console.log(response);
}
}
}
});
Here is my model:
Ext.define('YT.model.Video', {
extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
autoLoad: true,
fields: [
'title',
'published',
'content'
]
});
Here is a sample response:
{
version: '1.0',
encoding: 'UTF-8',
feed: {
junk: 'blahblahblahblah',
entry: [
title: {
$t: 'title'
},
content: {
encoding: 'flash/application',
src: 'http://youtube.com/watch?q=someCatVideo'
},
published: {
$t: '12-28-2012'
}
]
}
}
I'm not sure how to reconcile the two.
I've tried...
Ext.define('YT.model.Video', {
extend: 'Ext.data.Model',
autoLoad: true,
fields: [
{name: 'title', mapping: 'title.$t'},
{name: 'published', mapping: 'published.$t'},
{name: 'content', mapping: 'content.src'}
]
});
Bonus:
Definitely looking for tips on how to debug the implementation of these techniques, I'm rather new to JavaScript MVC.

You are on the right track with mapping, but you also need to define a reader where you specify where your records are in the JSON you get back - see official docs for good examples.
Incidentally, who thought $t was a good idea for a map key?
EDIT:
After your edits here is your working code:
http://jsfiddle.net/dbrin/mSJg3/
As far as debugging: the key for your issue was to clearly see the payload from the service (I used FireBug to inspect JSON object returned). Then mapping your Model class to fit the JSON object through mapping attribute and finally adjust JSON reader to let it know how to navigate your JSON payload (see my code example).
Once your exception listeners are not firing anymore (see code example for those again) that means you got your data into the store. To actually see the data I used Illuminations firebug plugin to inspect the data store. I saw only one record. What the heck? I observed id Property being set to some funky URL. This was happening by default as i did not specify an id attribute on the model. I resorted to spacifying idProperty to undefined to get around this funky behavior (see model code).
I used jsfiddle to quickly iterate through changes and running to see errors in the reader. Once I had no more errors I had jsfiddle show me the app I just build in such a way that I could use Illuminations plugin by using the show/light url: http://jsfiddle.net/dbrin/mSJg3/show/light/

ExtJS4 Changing data store parameters

If I have a data store on a grid like so:
store = Ext.create('Ext.data.Store', {
fields: [{
name: 'id'
}, {
name: 'filename'
}
// other fields here ...
],
proxy: {
type: 'ajax',
url: 'http://myniftyurl.com/blah',
simpleSortMode: true,
reader: {
type: 'json',
totalProperty: 'total',
root: 'result'
},
extraParams: {
'limit': Ext.get('itemsPerPage').getValue(),
'to': Ext.get('to_date').getValue()
// other params
}
},
model: 'Page',
remoteFilter: true,
remoteSort: true
});
The 'limit' and 'to' value will change based on user input, therein lies the problem. The data store keeps using the original parameters instead of the new inputs. How can I fix this?
Thanks in advance!

I normally load my grids manually by executing the store.load() in the controller.
That way prior to it I can change the store's params like so:
//getForm() retrieves the Ext.basic.Form (from Ext.panel.Form)
var params = this.getForm().getValues();
//Write over
grid.getStore().getProxy().extraParams = params;
//load
grid.getStore().load();
I'm using buffered grids which required a decent amount of rework to get completely working in 4.0.7. But that should work for you.
Another options is to use a beforeload listener but I'm not sure if changing the extraParams by then will do anything. You may be able to modified the Ext.data.Operation object that gets passed to the event handler?
Let me know how that works out for you.
Good luck!
