List

Introduction

An ordered list, built-in data structure of phaser.

  • Author: Richard Davey

Usage

Create instance

var list = new Phaser.Structs.List();

Add child

list.add(child);
list.addAt(child, index);

Exist

var hasChild = list.exists(child);

Get child

var firstChild = list.first;
var nextChild = list.next;
var prevChild = list.previous;
var lastChild = list.last;
var child = list.getByName(name);
var child = list.getRandom(startIndex, length);
var child = list.getFirst(property, value, startIndex, endIndex);
// value: the value to test the property against. Must pass a strict (`===`) comparison check.
var child = list.getAll(property, value, startIndex, endIndex);
// value: the value to test the property against. Must pass a strict (`===`) comparison check.
var child = list.count(property, value);
// value: the value to test the property against. Must pass a strict (`===`) comparison check.

Get children

var children = list.list;

Sort children

  • Sort by property
    list.sort(property);
    // list.sort(property, handler);
    
    • property : The property to lexically sort by.
    • handler :
      function (childA, childB) {
          return 0; // 0, 1, -1
      }
      

Remove child

list.remove(child);
list.removeAt(index);
list.removeBetween(startIndex, endIndex);
list.removeAll();

Order of child

list.moveTo(child, index);
list.bringToTop(child);
list.sendToBack(child);
list.moveUp(child);
list.moveDown(child);
list.moveAbove(child1, child2);  // Move child1 above child2
list.moveBelow(child1, child2);  // Move child1 below child2
list.swap(child1, child2);
list.reverse();
list.shuffle();

Replace child

list.replace(oldChild, newChild);

Set properties

list.setAll(property, value, startIndex, endIndex);

For each child

  • Iterate current children list
    list.each(callback);
    // list.each(callback, context);
    // list.iterate(callback, context, arg0, arg1, ...);
    
    • callback :
      function(child, arg0, arg1, ...) {
      
      }
      

Children counts

var size = list.length;
