Welcome to the ExtJS user extension repository!

The full list with all published user extensions is available here:

http://extjs-ux.org/ext-docs/

or here (in older format):

http://extjs-ux.org/docs


This repository has been put together to address shortcomings with the current ad hoc approach to ExtJS user extensions:

  • currently ux's are widely dispersed throughout the forums (difficult to find and keep track of and know what's available)
  • documentation is lacking if present at all (sometimes the only documentation is the description in the forum)
  • maintaining the ux takes too much time for the author and the user (need to find bookmark, read the forum thread to find latest version, find download link, etc..)
  • live demos and screenshots are unavailable (need to have own hosting, etc)
  • no chance for donations to maintain ux's

Below is the briefly description of the repository, intended for its users.

A brief description of the repository follows, for more information on the Repository design see here. For more information on UX registration see: Registering an User Extension.

The documentation.

All uxs are combined in a hierarchical tree, in a way, that was used for Ext library itself. The documentation is available here:
http://extjs-ux.org/docs

The documentation of each ux contains the following information:

  • version information
  • information about the author
  • license under which it is published.
  • link to extension's forum thread
  • link to available demos, and to any other extension-related materials.

Downloading and updating of the ux's.

You can download a single extension via the link "Defined in" in it's documentation. But for keeping all of your ux's up to date, you should setup a local copy of the repository.

The repository is organized in the form of SVN. To access it, you'll need an svn client.
For Windows users the best choice will be the TortoiseSVN
http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/

For Linux - there are several good enough clients, one of them - Subclipse plugin for Eclipse.
http://subclipse.tigris.org/

For downloading - create a local directory for your copy and checkout to it the following URL:
http://extjs-ux.org/repo/trunk
(this operation need to performed only once)

For updating your local copy to the latest versions - use update command of your svn client.
(Please consult your svn clients documentation about details of performing these tasks)

That's all - with couple of clicks, all ux's in your local copy will be synchronized with latest versions.
