React CircularGauge Methods

This section describes methods that can be used to manipulate the UI component.

See Also

beginUpdate()

Postpones rendering that can negatively affect performance until the endUpdate() method is called.

The beginUpdate() and endUpdate() methods reduce the number of renders in cases where extra rendering can negatively affect performance.

See Also

dispose()

Disposes of all the resources allocated to the CircularGauge instance.

jQuery

After calling this method, remove the DOM element associated with the UI component:

JavaScript
$("#myCircularGauge").dxCircularGauge("dispose");
$("#myCircularGauge").remove();
Angular

Use conditional rendering instead of this method:

app.component.html
<dx-circular-gauge ...
    *ngIf="condition">
</dx-circular-gauge>
Vue

Use conditional rendering instead of this method:

App.vue
<template>
    <DxCircularGauge ...
        v-if="condition">
    </DxCircularGauge>
</template>

<script>
import DxCircularGauge from 'devextreme-vue/circular-gauge';

export default {
    components: {
        DxCircularGauge
    }
}
</script>
React

Use conditional rendering instead of this method:

App.js
import React from 'react';

import CircularGauge from 'devextreme-react/circular-gauge';

function DxCircularGauge(props) {
    if (!props.shouldRender) {
        return null;
    }

    return (
        <CircularGauge ... >    
        </CircularGauge>
    );
}

class App extends React.Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <DxCircularGauge shouldRender="condition" />
        );
    }
}
export default App;

element()

Gets the root UI component element.

Return Value:

HTMLElement | jQuery

An HTML element or a jQuery element when you use jQuery.

See Also

endUpdate()

Refreshes the UI component after a call of the beginUpdate() method.

The beginUpdate() and endUpdate() methods reduce the number of renders in cases where extra rendering can negatively affect performance.

See Also

exportTo(fileName, format)

Exports the UI component.

Parameters:
fileName:

String

The name of the file to which the UI component is about to be exported.

format:

String

The file's format. One of 'PNG', 'PDF', 'JPEG', 'SVG' and 'GIF'.
PNG is used if the browser does not support exporting to the specified format.

getInstance(element)

Gets the instance of a UI component found using its DOM node.

Parameters:
element:

DOM Node

|

jQuery

The UI component's container.

Return Value:

Object

The UI component's instance.

getInstance is a static method that the UI component class supports. The following code demonstrates how to get the CircularGauge instance found in an element with the myCircularGauge ID:

// Modular approach
import CircularGauge from "devextreme/viz/circular_gauge";
...
let element = document.getElementById("myCircularGauge");
let instance = CircularGauge.getInstance(element) as CircularGauge;

// Non-modular approach
let element = document.getElementById("myCircularGauge");
let instance = DevExpress.viz.dxCircularGauge.getInstance(element);

getSize()

Gets the current UI component size.

Return Value:

Size

The current UI component size.

Returns an object with the following fields.

  • width
    The width of the UI component in pixels.
  • height
    The height of the UI component in pixels.
See Also

hideLoadingIndicator()

Hides the loading indicator.

Although the loading indicator hides automatically once the UI component is ready, you can hide it from code at the required moment using this method.

instance()

Gets the UI component's instance. Use it to access other methods of the UI component.

Return Value:

CircularGauge

This UI component's instance.

off(eventName)

Detaches all event handlers from a single event.

Parameters:
eventName:

String

The event's name.

Return Value:

CircularGauge

The object for which this method is called.

off(eventName, eventHandler)

Detaches a particular event handler from a single event.

Parameters:
eventName:

String

The event's name.

eventHandler:

Function

The event's handler.

Return Value:

CircularGauge

The object for which this method is called.

See Also

on(eventName, eventHandler)

Subscribes to an event.

Parameters:
eventName:

String

The event's name.

eventHandler:

Function

The event's handler.

Return Value:

Use this method to subscribe to one of the events listed in the Events section.

See Also

on(events)

Subscribes to events.

Parameters:
events:

Object

Events with their handlers: { "eventName1": handler1, "eventName2": handler2, ...}

Return Value:

CircularGauge

The object for which this method is called.

Use this method to subscribe to several events with one method call. Available events are listed in the Events section.

Object

The UI component's properties.

option(optionName)

Gets the value of a single property.

Parameters:

render()
