Undo Extension

The Undo object has a set of methods that allow you to undo/redo the made changes.
Read details about the Undo extension in the Undo/Redo Functionality article.

Methods

The following methods are available via the gantt.ext.undo object:

Undo() / Redo()

undo (): void - reverts the changes made in the gantt

gantt.ext.undo.undo();

redo (): void - applies the reverted changes to the gantt once again

gantt.ext.undo.redo();

getUndoStack() / getRedoStack()

getUndoStack (): Array<object> - returns the stack of stored undo user actions

var stack = gantt.ext.undo.getUndoStack();

getRedoStack (): Array<object> - returns the stack of stored redo user actions

var stack = gantt.ext.undo.getRedoStack();

The returned stack is an array of the undo user actions. Each user action contains a set of commands. A command is an object with the following attributes:

type - (string) the type of a command: "add/remove/update"
entity - (string) the type of the object which was changed: "task" or "link"
value - (object) the changed task/link object
oldValue - (object) the task/link object before changes

clearUndoStack() / clearRedoStack()

clearUndoStack (): void - clears the stack of stored undo commands

gantt.ext.undo.clearUndoStack();

clearRedoStack (): void - clears the stack of stored redo commands

gantt.ext.undo.clearRedoStack();

saveState()

saveState (id, entityType): boolean - saves the current state of a task/link before the changes are made
- id - (string | number) - the id of a task/link,
- type - (string) - the type of an entry for which the id is provided as the first argument.
  Supported values: "task", "link".

gantt.ext.undo.saveState(1, "task");
gantt.ext.undo.saveState(1, "link");
