Overview of this book

Sencha Ext JS is an industry leader for business-standard web application development. Ext JS is a leading JavaScript framework that comes with a myriad of components, APIs, and extensive documentation that you can harness to build powerful and interactive applications. Using Ext JS, you can quickly develop rich desktop web applications that are compatible with all major browsers. This book will enable you to build databases using information from an existing database with Ext JS. It covers the MVC application architecture that enables development teams to work independently on one project. Additionally, the book teaches advanced charting capability, enabling developers to create state-of-the-art charts just once. These charts are compatible with major browsers without the need to rely on plugins. This hands-on, practical guide will take you through the mechanics of building an application. In this instance, we will use this application to manage existing data structures in the form of a database. You will begin by making SQL and tables in MySQL and will then move on to developing the project environment and introducing Sencha Cmd. You will learn to create a form to input data and monitor the state of the input, while seeing how Ext Direct will validate the form on the server side. Finally, you will have a working application that is ready for you to customize to suit your needs. You can also use it as a template for any future projects when you need a similar database.

Chapter 1. Data Structure

This book will take you step-by-step through the process of building a clear and user-friendly sales management database in Ext JS using information from an existing database.

This book is intended for intermediate Ext JS developers with operational knowledge of MySQL and who want to improve their programming skills and create a higher-level application.

The finished application will give you a working sales management database. However, the true value of this book is the hands-on process of creating the application, and the opportunity to easily transfer and incorporate features introduced in this book in your own future applications.

The standout features we will look at while building this application are as follows:

  • History-supported back button functionality: We will customize the Ext JS function to create a lighter method to scroll forwards and backwards while staying on a single page.

  • More efficient screen management: We'll learn how simply registering a screen and naming conventions can help you cut down on the screen change processes; meaning you can focus more on the implementation behind each screen. Also, it will be easier to interact with the history just by conforming to this architecture.

  • Communication methods with Ext.Direct: Ext.Direct has a close affinity with Ext applications which makes for easier connection, easier maintenance, and removes the need for the client side to change the URL. Also, if you use Ext.Direct, you can reduce the stress on the server side as it combines multiple server requests into just one request.

  • Data display methods with charts: In Ext JS, by simply adjusting the store and the data structure set to display in a grid, we can display the data graphically in a chart.

This chapter will give you the basic building blocks of your database. In this chapter of the book, you will write the SQL code and and create tables in MySQL.
