How can I use Lightning:input focus on init?
3
Not sure what am i missing here but trying few approaches but still having some issues and it doesn't work so far.
How can I invoke the method focus on a ui input :
cmp
<lightning:input label="Name" aura:id="itemName" value="{!v.item.Name}" required="true" />
js
var nameInput = component.find('itemName');
nameInput.focus();
Also tried
component.find('itemName').getElement().focus();

This might just be a matter of dom load timing! There are couple of ways you can make it work.
- Adding a timer
- Using after renderer
Adding a timer
window.setTimeout(
$A.getCallback(function () {
cmp.find("itemName").focus();
}), 1
);
Renderer Approach:
afterRender: function (cmp, helper) {
this.superAfterRender();
cmp.find("itemName").focus();
}

I agree andthis.superAfterRender();will ensure all the default component rendering! This is something similar on Lightning data service and I usually use attribute change handlers in that case!

+1 but instead ofafterRender,renderis the easier and preferred approach.

@JayantDas Thanks for the suggestion, the reason I went with afterRender is doc states method is called to enable you to interact with the DOM tree after the framework’s rendering service has inserted DOM elements.
