Windmill Extensions

[sophiedmr]

I am trying to write an extension but I can't seem to call to it.
The extensions.setWindowByName is there in the IDE but it doesn't seem
to be calling the javascript.
Am I missing something?

Thanks.

In my extensions.js I have:

windmill.controller.extensions = new function () {};


// Set the windmill.testWindow by iterating through the windowReg to
find a matching title
// @param {Object} paramObject The JavaScript object providing: title
//
windmill.controller.extensions.setWindowByName = function(paramObject)
{
alert("in function");

var name = paramObject.name;
var newW = windmill.testWin();
for (var i = 0; i < windmill.windowReg.length; i++)
{
try {
if (windmill.windowReg[i].name == name){
newW = windmill.windowReg[i];
}
} catch(err){
// The window reference is no longer valid, remove it
windmill.windowReg.splice(i,i);
}
}
windmill.controller.reWritePopups();
windmill.popup = newW;
};

windmill.registry.methods['extensions.setWindowByName'] = {
'locator': false,
'option': 'name'
};

Hi Sophie,

Can you show me the command you are using to start Windmill?

According to our wiki page you need to tell windmill where to find the extension: windmill shell firefox extensions=/path/to/ext tests=/path/to/tests http://www.example.com

https://github.com/windmill/windmill/wiki/Advanced-Topics

Other than that, this looks correct, you aren't seeing this method in the drop down?

You can always check to see if the JS is there by opening firebug in the IDE and typing windmill.controller.extensions and see if it exists.

{
try {

}
} catch(err){

windmill.windowReg.splice(i,i);
}
}
windmill.controller.reWritePopups();
windmill.popup = newW;
};

windmill.registry.methods['extensions.setWindowByName'] = {
 'locator': false,
 'option': 'name'
};
