ConfigText is not possible to use in OWIF setting Menus

[anudanan]

If a plugin has a setup.xml file for using by OWIF setting menu, the plugin parameter type ConfigText does not work in OWIF.
I think in config.tmpl there is not template for ConfigText parameter

Is not urgent, but I have seen is by testing some new parameters for trancodingsetup plugin

What exactly setting do not work?

[anudanan]

Example

a additional line in
plugin.py of transcodingsetup plugin

config.plugins.transcodingsetup.testtext= ConfigText(default = "xxx")

in setup.xml of that plugin then add the line for testtext

`

config.plugins.transcodingsetup.bitrate
config.plugins.transcodingsetup.resolution
config.plugins.transcodingsetup.testtext

After that in OWIF no parameter testtext is in the transcodingsetupmenu seen.
`
If have debugged getConfigs in controllers/models and the parameter was collected in config but the template config.tmpl has no methode for text type, only for select, checkbox, multicheckbox and number

`

$title

#for $config in $configs:
#if $config.data.type == "select"
$select($config)
#elif $config.data.type == "checkbox"
$checkbox($config)
#elif $config.data.type == "multicheckbox"
$multicheckbox($config)
#elif $config.data.type == "number"
$number($config)
#end if
#end for

`

do you have any other setting with ConfigText
I don't have "config.plugins.transcodingsetup.testtext"

[anudanan]

Do you have the plugin.py and setup.xml of transcodingsetup plugin?

I think you can modify the config.plugins.transcodingsetup.port from ConfigInteger zu ConfigText in the beginning of plugin.py
With ConfigInteger you see the port and with ConfigText no in OWIF

You must include ConfigText from config in plugin.py

i will check this

Please try this config.tmpl ->

#def select($config)
<tr>
<td>$config.description</td>
<td>
	<select id="$config.path" onchange="saveConfig('$config.path', this.value);">
		#for $choice in $config.data.choices
			#if $config.data.current == $choice[0]
				<option value="$choice[0]" selected="true">$choice[1]</option>
			#else
				<option value="$choice[0]">$choice[1]</option>
			#end if
		#end for
	</select>
</td>
</tr>
#end def

#def checkbox($config)
<tr>
<td>$config.description</td>
<td>
	#if $config.data.current
		<input type="checkbox" id="$config.path" checked="true" onclick="saveConfig('$config.path', this.checked);" />
	#else
		<input type="checkbox" id="$config.path" onclick="saveConfig('$config.path', this.checked);" />
	#end if
</td>
</tr>
#end def

#def multicheckbox($config)
<tr>
<td>$config.description</td>
<td>
	#for $choice in $config.data.choices
		#if $choice in $config.data.current
			<input type="checkbox" id="${config.path}_${choice}" checked="true" onclick="saveConfig('$config.path', $choice);" />
		#else
			<input type="checkbox" id="${config.path}_${choice}" onclick="saveConfig('$config.path', $choice);" />
		#end if
		$choice
	#end for
</td>
</tr>
#end def

#def number($config)
<tr>
<td>$config.description</td>
<td>
	<input type="text" id="${config.path}" value="$config.data.current" onkeydown="numberTextboxKeydownFilter(event);" onchange="saveConfig('$config.path', this.value);">
</td>
</tr>
#end def

#def text($config)
<tr>
<td>$config.description</td>
<td>
	<input type="text" id="${config.path}" value="$config.data.current" onchange="saveConfig('$config.path', this.value);">
</td>
</tr>
#end def

<div id="content_main">
	<h3 class="ui-widget-header">$title</h3>
	<table id="configuration">
		#for $config in $configs:
			#if $config.data.type == "select"
				$select($config)
			#elif $config.data.type == "checkbox"
				$checkbox($config)
			#elif $config.data.type == "multicheckbox"
				$multicheckbox($config)
			#elif $config.data.type == "number"
				$number($config)
			#elif $config.data.type == "text"
				$text($config)
			#end if
		#end for
	</table>
</div>
