dizmojs.Dizmo

Dizmo

An instance of this class represents a single dizmo and allows reading and setting its attributes where permitted, as well as registering callbacks to listen for changes. Several convenience methods are provided to make access easier.

Each dizmo is provided with an instance of this class in the global
variable dizmo. It represents the dizmo itself. An instance
representing another dizmo can be obtained by passing its identifier to
the constructor, or via any method that directly returns an
instance.

new Dizmo(identifier)

Given the identifier of a dizmo, construct a new instance that
represents the dizmo.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
identifier String The identifier for the dizmo to be represented
Throws:
If the provided identifier does not correspond to a dizmo
Type
DizmoNotExistsError

Members

identifier :String

The unique identifier of the represented dizmo
Type:
  • String

Methods

getAttribute(attributeName, options) → {String|Boolean|Number|Array}

Get attributes saved on this dizmo. The following is a list of available attributes (please note that they are all case INsensitive!).

options Object Additional options for getting an attribute. Note that only one of the supplied options
can be true. The other has to be false or undefined (non existing).
