ExtJS 5 View Models

[beckhamrryyaann]

Trying to figure out how to use the new view model's in ExtJS 5. The docs seem to be a little lacking or I am not looking at the right place.
I understand how to use references to bind to components.
The part that I am missing is the docs that explain how to bind the viewmodel data based on the events that place....
for example....take a grid...i found this code on Google that shows me how to update the data in the view model when a user clicks a row

formulas:{
    // current customer is bound to automatically published selection
    currentCustomer:{
         bind:'{customersList.selection}'
        ,get:function(customer) {
 
            // this is core of the trick
            // whenever selection changes, this method is called
            // so we also update current.customer that is defined
            // in the main view model
            this.set('current.customer', customer);
            return customer;
 
        } // eo function get (currentCustomer)
    } // eo currentCustomer
 
} // eo formulas

The Key to it working is the someGridReference.selection bind parameter... But that is only for a grid selection...what about the other 1000's of events that can happen....where do i find the docs that show me all these??

In the example you mentioned, you are actually binding to a property named "selection" on the grid panel. Ext automatically updates this property when the grid selection is changed. The reason you can bind to it is because there is a "setter" for this property (named setSelection). Thus, you can bind to any property that has a "setter". So you could go through the documentation and look for any setters against the object you are looking to bind properties.
