Global settings, doFillXYZItems and previously stored settings

[Thiago Lima]

I managed to corretly save my plugin global settings to the XML file, but I'm stuck on how to fill correctly the global settings view, since my <select> is being filled with the help of a "doFillXYZItems" method. I saw the "selected" property in the Option object, but I don't know how to get the stored setting for the input I'm rendering. The jelly code and fill method are right below.

<f:entry title="Repositories" field="repositories">
   <f:repeatable var="repo" minimum="1" items="${descriptor.repositories}" add="Add repository">
      <table width="100%" style="margin-bottom: 3px">
         <f:entry title="Type" field="type">
            <f:select />
         </f:entry>

         <f:entry title="Name" field="name">
            <f:textbox value="${repo.name}" />
         </f:entry>

         <f:entry title="URL" field="url">
            <f:textbox value="${repo.url}" />
         </f:entry>

         <f:entry title="">
            <div align="right">
               <f:repeatableDeleteButton value="Delete" />
            </div>
         </f:entry>
      </table>
   </f:repeatable>
</f:entry

public ListBoxModel doFillTypeItems() {
   ListBoxModel ret = new ListBoxModel();

   for (RepositoryType o : RepositoryType.values()) {
      ret.add(o.getDescription(), o.name());
   }

   return ret;
}

Hello Thiago,

Seems you are using an old forms API, which I would not recommend for new plugins. The right way would be to get rid of f:repeatable and...

1) Move configurations to RepositoryType, make it Describable

2) Optional: make RepositoryType an extension point to make the behavior flexible

3) Define configs on the RepositoryType level

4) use f:repeatableProperty or f:hetero-list

Such approach will make your plugin configuration much more flexible.

Best regards,

Oleg
