You should use the tpl
option instead of the renderTpl
one. The later is intended for rendering the component structure, rather that its content. This way, you'll be able to use the update
method to update the component.
You also need to call initConfig
in your component's constructor for the initial state to be applied.
Finally, I advice to use applyValue
instead of setValue
for semantical reasons, and to keep the boolean value for getValue/setValue.
Ext.define('MyApp.view.ux.form.BoolDisplayField', {
extend: 'Ext.Component',
alias : 'widget.booldisplayfield',
tpl: '<img src="{src}" />',
config: {
// I think you should keep the true value in there
// (in order for setValue/getValue to yield the expected
// result)
value: false
},
constructor: function(config) {
// will trigger applyValue
this.initConfig(config);
this.callParent(arguments);
},
// You can do this in setValue, but since you're using
// a config option (for value), it is semantically more
// appropriate to use applyValue. setValue & getValue
// will be generated anyway.
applyValue: function(v) {
if (v) {
this.update({
src: "/Images/booltrue.png"
});
}else{
this.update({
src: "/Images/boolfalse.png"
});
}
return v;
}
});
With that, you can set your value either at creation time, or later, using setValue
.
// Initial value
var c = Ext.create('MyApp.view.ux.form.BoolDisplayField', {
renderTo: Ext.getBody()
,value: false
});
// ... that you can change later
c.setValue(true);
However, you won't be able to drop this component as it is in an Ext form and have it acting as a full fledged field. That is, its value won't be set, retrieved, etc. For that, you'll have to use the Ext.form.field.Field
mixin. See this other question for an extended discussion on the subject.
