Hi Vojtech,
Thanks a lot for the information.
Are these changes already available in latest nightly repository or do I have
to fetch them from git?
As UI API gets more and more features I was wondering if I can get the UI
plugin API version with a JavaScript call like api.getVersion().
I think it could sometimes be useful for UI plugin development to get the
version of UI API to be able to use the right API call - at the moment only
oVirt 3.2 is available which supports UI plugins, but in future there will be
more oVirt version and hopefully RHEV will also support UI plugins (at least as
tech preview).
What do you think?
interesting point. maybe less of an issue if the ui plugin is
distributed in rpm form, and can validate minimal version.
but if a single codebase for the uiplugin is to support multiple
versions for deployment, it may want to make some features available
only if engine version is X or >X.
so just wondering:
- do you see uiplugins distributed as rpms or some other way?
- do you see uiplugin codebase trying to accomodate multiple versions,
or branch/version similar to supported engine, and one needs latest
engine for latest uiplugin, etc.
Thanks,
Itamar
Thanks,
René

Subject: UI Plugin API improvements
Hi guys,
I've just merged some UI Plugin patches that improve existing API functions, as
well as add some new API functions. Please read on to learn what's new.
Modal dialog API
================
Function improved: showDialog
New signature:
showDialog(title, dialogToken, contentUrl, width, height [, options])
Example usage:
showDialog('My Dialog', 'my-dialog', 'http://www.foobar.com/', '800px',
'600px', {
// Default value = empty array (no buttons)
buttons: [
{
label: 'Do stuff',
onClick: function() {
alert('Bump!');
}
}
],
// Default value = false
resizeEnabled: true,
// Default value = true
closeIconVisible: true,
// Default value = true
closeOnEscKey: true
});
Notable changes:
* modal dialogs now look & feel the same as standard WebAdmin dialogs
* width & height are strings containing CSS units
* the reason why buttons default to empty array is to give plugin authors the
choice to provide custom buttons (or similar input elements) via dialog content
(iframe), and use HTML5 window.postMessage to call the plugin (coming soon!)

New function: setDialogContentUrl
New signature:
setDialogContentUrl(dialogToken, contentUrl)
Example usage:
setDialogContentUrl('my-dialog', 'http://www.example.com/')
--
New function: closeDialog
New signature:
closeDialog(dialogToken)
Example usage:
closeDialog('my-dialog')
Tab API
=======
Functions improved: addMainTab & addSubTab
New signatures:
addMainTab(label, historyToken, contentUrl [, options])
addSubTab(entityTypeName, label, historyToken, contentUrl [, options])
Example usage:
// Tab is left-aligned by default
addMainTab('Foo Tab', 'foo-tab', 'http://www.foo.com/');
// Tab is right-aligned via options object
addSubTab('VirtualMachine', 'Bar Tab', 'bar-tab', 'http://www.bar.com/', {
alignRight: true
});
