[GH-108]: Added the setting in the system console for plugin settings #126
Conversation
…omebot into MM-108
|
@mickmister Regarding the QA comment #92 (review), I tried making the build from the master branch and deploying it on MM v5.37+ which is its minimum supported version. I am getting the error But the above builds are working fine on MMv7.8.0+, So here we can do 2 things I can each commit in this plugin and check for which we are actually getting the error and try to debug and fix that or we can just update the minimum supported version for this plugin. But in any case, this error is not related to this PR. |

| If you see `[Object object]` in the text field, that's because the configuration was configured as JSON directly in your `config.json` instead of as a string. |

Can we instead JSON.stringify the data if it's not originally a string?

@mickmister Can you elaborate a bit on this, I am not really able to understand it.

Regarding the other review comments, I am not able to push the code, as we don't have access to push the code. Will fix it afterwards

I mean, if it's the case that the setting is an object (and not a JSON string), then the frontend can call JSON.stringify to make it into a string to put into the text box. This would require the plugin setting to be custom I think. Otherwise the admin cannot go and edit the current configuration if it just says [Object object]
Ideally we can just keep it as an object in the config file too, and not have a JSON string in the config.json file. Which would also require it to be a custom admin console setting

The indentation seems off here
