How bind data in textarea ExtJS

Question

I want to display text under text area with length current and max like this 10/150 . For it I use config afterSubTpl.

Full code:

{
    xtype: 'textareafield',
    msgTarget: 'under',
    fieldLabel: __('text_sms'),
    itemId: 'smsTextField',
    allowBlank: false,
    setMaxLength: function(v) {
        this.maxLength = v;
    },
    getMaxLength: function() {
        return this.maxLength;
    },
    name: 'text-sms',
    bind: {
        data: {
            myMaxLength: '{myMaxLength}'
        },
        value: __('sms_text_template'),
        maxLength: '{myMaxLength}'
    },
    afterSubTpl: '<span>{length}/{myMaxLength}</span>',
    listeners: {
        change: 'onSMSTextChange'
    }

},

But when I'm add data element in bind, textarea not displaying. Help me pleas solve this problem.

You could use fieldLabel with binding and inside of fieldLabel you put your custom html tag. And after that you can apply css to place proper location. Like this

bind: {
    fieldLabel: '{labelText} <span class="show-counter">({curLen}/{maxLen})</span>'
},

You can check here with working Fiddle.

Ext.application({
    name: 'Fiddle',

    launch: function () {
        Ext.create('Ext.form.FormPanel', {
            title: 'Display text under text',
            width: '100%',
            bodyPadding: 10,
            renderTo: Ext.getBody(),
            viewModel: {
                data: {
                    labelText: 'Message',
                    maxLen: 150,
                    curLen: 0
                }
            },
            items: [{
                xtype: 'textareafield',
                //Maximum input field length allowed by validation.
                maxLength: 150,
                //True to set the maxLength property on the underlying input field. Defaults to false
                enforceMaxLength: true,
                bind: {
                    fieldLabel: '{labelText} <span class="show-counter">({curLen}/{maxLen})</span>'
                },
                anchor: '100%',

                listeners: {
                    change: function (f) {
                        var vm = f.up('form').getViewModel(),
                            len = f.getValue().length;

                        vm.set('curLen', len);
                    }
                }
            }]
        });
    }
});
