Hey there,

Currently that was not possible to override Javascript file in Easysocial at this point of time.

I didn't mean a whole file, but only single controllers. I'm talking about OOP generalization. Something like this:

newController extends EasySocial.Controller.Videos.List{

	getVideos : function(){

		… 

	}

}



$('[data-videos-filter]').addController('newController', {

            '{parent}': self,

            "type": '...'

        });

Hello Walter,

It's not possible to extend the javascript controllers currently but you can always refer it in different ways. For instance,

[gist]
EasySocial.Controller('Videos.List.Custom', {
defaultOptions: {
}
}, function(self, opts, base) {
init: function() {
console.log(self.parent);
}
});

var someOtherController = $('[data-other-controller]').addController('EasySocial.Videos.List');

$('[data-some-element]').addController('EasySocial.Videos.List.Custom', {
"parent": someOtherController
});
[/gist]

Hi.
Sorry for the delayed response.
I don't know why, but in your example the init() function returns allways 'undefined'.

Sorry, I forgot the curly braces. It should be

$('[data-some-element]').addController('EasySocial.Videos.List.Custom', {

    "{parent}": someOtherController

});

Thanks for replies, but i found another solution

//Original controller

parent = new EasySocial.Controller('EasySocial.Controller.Videos.List');

//Extending default options list

$.extend(true,parent.defaultOptions,{

	"{someOption}": "[selector]"

});



//Create new controller

EasySocial.Controller('Videos.List.Custom', {

	defaultOptions: parent.defaultOptions //passing extended options

}, function(){

	//get controller's body as an object

	var child = parent.protoFactory.apply(null, arguments);

	//Override parent's methods

	$.extend(true,child,{

		"getVideos": function(){

			alert("debug");

		}

	});

	return child;

});



//Apply new controller

$('[data-videos-listing]').addController('EasySocial.Controller.Videos.List.Custom');

Cool, glad that your issues are resolved now
