Found your bug (I think): You don't check in your code whether there is a selection (if (arguments.length == 1) for example, if you want to act only when one is selected).
You'll probably want to do similar logic to the Foreman plugin, setting the sub-tab content URL only in case one VM is selected, and setting the URL properly. The fact that your alert won't show is that you call arguments[0].name, and it fails when nothing is selected... and I guess that's the case when you switch tabs. Didn't check it out, but please check it out... and let me know what you found :-) Oved ----- Original Message ----- > From: "René Koch" <[email protected]> > To: "Oved Ourfalli" <[email protected]> > Cc: [email protected] > Sent: Monday, January 21, 2013 6:05:47 PM > Subject: Re: [Users] UI Plugin issue when switching main tabs > > When switching back to vm main tab changing the selection doesn't > work. > > No matter which VM I select the VirtualMachineSelectionChange > function isn't called again (as my debug alert window doesn't > appear), but the last vm I selected before switching to another main > tab is cached in variable vmName... > It works again after restarting engine-service. > > I just tested your foreman plugin and it seems that this one is > working as expected. > > > Regards, > René > > > -----Original message----- > > From:Oved Ourfalli <[email protected]> > > Sent: Monday 21st January 2013 14:56 > > To: René Koch <[email protected]> > > Cc: [email protected]; Vojtech Szocs <[email protected]> > > Subject: Re: [Users] UI Plugin issue when switching main tabs > > > > I'll let Vojtech (cc-ed) to give a more accurate answer, but, > > trying to narrow down the issue: when you switch to a different > > main tab and then back to the VM main tab, and change the > > selection in there, does it work? > > (Trying to understand if the problem is only when doing the switch, > > and it works afterwards, or not). > > > > Thank you, > > Oved > > ----- Original Message ----- > > > From: "René Koch" <[email protected]> > > > To: [email protected] > > > Sent: Sunday, January 20, 2013 11:07:13 PM > > > Subject: [Users] UI Plugin issue when switching main tabs > > > > > > Hi, > > > > > > I'm working on an UI plugin to integrate Nagios/Icinga into oVirt > > > Engine and made some progress, but have an issue when switching > > > the > > > main tabs. > > > > > > I use VirtualMachineSelectionChange to create URL with name of vm > > > (and HostSelectionChange for hosts). > > > Name is used in my backend code (Perl) for fetching monitoring > > > status. > > > > > > Here's the code of VirtualMachineSelectionChange: > > > > > > VirtualMachineSelectionChange: function() { > > > var vmName = arguments[0].name; > > > alert(vmName); > > > // Reload VM Sub Tab > > > api.setTabContentUrl('vms-monitoring', conf.url + > > > '?subtab=vms&name=' + encodeURIComponent(vmName)); > > > } > > > > > > Everything works fine as long as I stay in Virtual Machine main > > > tab. > > > When switching to e.g. Disks and back to Virtual Machines again > > > the > > > JavaScript code of start.html isn't processed anymore (or cached > > > (?) > > > as the my generated URL with last vm name will still be sent back > > > to > > > my Perl backend) - added alert() to test this. > > > > > > oVirt Engine version: > > > ovirt-engine-3.2.0-1.20130118.gitd102d6f.fc18.noarch > > > > > > Full code of start.hml: http://pastebin.com/iEY6dA6F > > > > > > > > > Thanks a lot for your help, > > > René > > > > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > > Users mailing list > > > [email protected] > > > http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > Users mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users > _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
