(function() {

var $ = jQuery; // Handle namespaced jQuery

$.fn.extend({

Makes the selector enter a mode. Modes have both a 'mode' and a 'group', and are mutually exclusive with any other modes in the same group. Setting will update the view's modes hash, as well as set an HTML class of [mode]_[group] on the view's element. Convenient way to swap styles and behavior.

  setMode : function(state, group) {
    group    = group || 'mode';
    var re   = new RegExp("\\w+_" + group + "(\\s|$)", 'g');
    var mode = (state === null) ? "" : state + "_" + group;
    this.each(function() {
      this.className = (this.className.replace(re, '')+' '+mode)
                       .replace(/\s\s/g, ' ');
    });
    return mode;
  },

When attached to an input element, this will cause the width of the input to match its contents. This calculates the width of the contents of the input by measuring a hidden shadow div that should match the styling of the input.

  autoGrowInput: function() {
    return this.each(function() {
      var $input  = $(this);
      var $tester = $('<div />').css({
        opacity     : 0,
        top         : -9999,
        left        : -9999,
        position    : 'absolute',
        whiteSpace  : 'nowrap'
      }).addClass('VS-input-width-tester').addClass('VS-interface');

Watch for input value changes on all of these events. resize event is called explicitly when the input has been changed without a single keypress.

      var events = 'keydown.autogrow keypress.autogrow ' +
                   'resize.autogrow change.autogrow';
      $input.next('.VS-input-width-tester').remove();
      $input.after($tester);
      $input.unbind(events).bind(events, function(e, realEvent) {
        if (realEvent) e = realEvent;
        var value = $input.val();

Watching for the backspace key is tricky because it may not actually be deleting the character, but instead the key gets redirected to move the cursor from facet to facet.

        if (VS.app.hotkeys.key(e) == 'backspace') {
          var position = $input.getCursorPosition();
          if (position > 0) value = value.slice(0, position-1) +
                                    value.slice(position, value.length);
        } else if (VS.app.hotkeys.printable(e) &&
                   !VS.app.hotkeys.command) {
          value += String.fromCharCode(e.which);
        }
        value = value.replace(/&/g, '&amp;')
                     .replace(/\s/g,'&nbsp;')
                     .replace(/</g, '&lt;')
                     .replace(/>/g, '&gt;');

        $tester.html(value);

        $input.width($tester.width() + 3 + parseInt($input.css('min-width')));
        $input.trigger('updated.autogrow');
      });

Sets the width of the input on initialization.

      $input.trigger('resize.autogrow');
    });
  },

Cross-browser method used for calculating where the cursor is in an input field.

  getCursorPosition: function() {
    var position = 0;
    var input    = this.get(0);

    if (document.selection) { // IE
      input.focus();
      var sel    = document.selection.createRange();
      var selLen = document.selection.createRange().text.length;
      sel.moveStart('character', -input.value.length);
      position   = sel.text.length - selLen;
    } else if (input && $(input).is(':visible') &&
               input.selectionStart != null) { // Firefox/Safari
      position = input.selectionStart;
    }

    return position;
  },

A simple proxy for selectRange that sets the cursor position in an input field.

  setCursorPosition: function(position) {
    return this.each(function() {
      return $(this).selectRange(position, position);
    });
  },

Cross-browser way to select text in an input field.

  selectRange: function(start, end) {
    return this.filter(':visible').each(function() {
      if (this.setSelectionRange) { // FF/Webkit
        this.focus();
        this.setSelectionRange(start, end);
      } else if (this.createTextRange) { // IE
        var range = this.createTextRange();
        range.collapse(true);
        range.moveEnd('character', end);
        range.moveStart('character', start);
        if (end - start >= 0) range.select();
      }
    });
  },

Returns an object that contains the text selection range values for an input field.

  getSelection: function() {
    var input = this[0];

    if (input.selectionStart != null) { // FF/Webkit
      var start = input.selectionStart;
      var end   = input.selectionEnd;
      return {
        start   : start,
        end     : end,
        length  : end-start,
        text    : input.value.substr(start, end-start)
      };
    } else if (document.selection) { // IE
      var range = document.selection.createRange();
      if (range) {
        var textRange = input.createTextRange();
        var copyRange = textRange.duplicate();
        textRange.moveToBookmark(range.getBookmark());
        copyRange.setEndPoint('EndToStart', textRange);
        var start = copyRange.text.length;
        var end   = start + range.text.length;
        return {
          start   : start,
          end     : end,
          length  : end-start,
          text    : range.text
        };
      }
    }
    return {start: 0, end: 0, length: 0};
  }

});

Debugging in Internet Explorer. This allows you to use console.log(['message', var1, var2, ...]). Just remove the false and add your console.logs. This will automatically stringify objects using `JSON.stringify', so you can read what's going out. Think of this as a Diet Firebug Lite Zero with Lemon.

if (false) {
  window.console = {};
  var _$ied;
  window.console.log = function(msg) {
    if (_.isArray(msg)) {
      var message = msg[0];
      var vars = _.map(msg.slice(1), function(arg) {
        return JSON.stringify(arg);
      }).join(' - ');
    }
    if(!_$ied){
      _$ied = $('<div><ol></ol></div>').css({
        'position': 'fixed',
        'bottom': 10,
        'left': 10,
        'zIndex': 20000,
        'width': $('body').width() - 80,
        'border': '1px solid #000',
        'padding': '10px',
        'backgroundColor': '#fff',
        'fontFamily': 'arial,helvetica,sans-serif',
        'fontSize': '11px'
      });
      $('body').append(_$ied);
    }
    var $message = $('<li>'+message+' - '+vars+'</li>').css({
      'borderBottom': '1px solid #999999'
    });
    _$ied.find('ol').append($message);
    _.delay(function() {
      $message.fadeOut(500);
    }, 5000);
  };

}

})();
