# SmartLine Controller API
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The SmartLine Controller provides the following API to register additional condition and action commands from other mods:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* smartline.register_condition(name, condition definition)
|
||
|
|
* smartline.register_action(name, action definition)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Each registered condition and action has the function `on_execute` which is called for each rule (every second).
|
||
|
|
* The condition function has to return true or false, depending if the condition is true or not.
|
||
|
|
* The action function has to execute the defined action.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In addition each registered condition and action has the function `button_label`, which determines the button label
|
||
|
|
for the Controller main formspec. Please note that the maximum number of visible characters for the button label is
|
||
|
|
something about 15.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
See `commands.lua` as reference. All predefined SmartLine Controller commands are registered via `commands.lua`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Prototypes
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```LUA
|
||
|
|
smartline.register_condition(name, {
|
||
|
|
title = "my condition",
|
||
|
|
formspec = {},
|
||
|
|
on_execute = function(data, environ)
|
||
|
|
-- data: table with the formspec data
|
||
|
|
-- environ: not relevant here
|
||
|
|
end,
|
||
|
|
button_label = function(data)
|
||
|
|
return "button label"
|
||
|
|
end,
|
||
|
|
})
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```LUA
|
||
|
|
smartline.register_action(name, {
|
||
|
|
title = "my action",
|
||
|
|
formspec = {},
|
||
|
|
on_execute = function(data, environ, inputs)
|
||
|
|
-- data: table with the formspec data
|
||
|
|
-- environ: not relevant here
|
||
|
|
-- inputs: table with the input values
|
||
|
|
end,
|
||
|
|
button_label = function(data)
|
||
|
|
return "button label"
|
||
|
|
end,
|
||
|
|
})
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The 'name' parameter should be unique. External mods should use the mod name as prefix, like "mymod_mycond".
|
||
|
|
The 'title' is used in the main menu for the condition and action selection dialog.
|
||
|
|
The 'formspec' table defines the condition/action related form for additional user parameters.
|
||
|
|
It supports the following subset of the minetest formspec elements:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- textlist
|
||
|
|
- field
|
||
|
|
- label
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Please note that size and position is automatically determined.
|
||
|
|
All other attributes are according to the original formspec.
|
||
|
|
Example:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```LUA
|
||
|
|
formspec = {
|
||
|
|
{
|
||
|
|
type = "field", -- formspec element
|
||
|
|
name = "number", -- reference key for the table 'data'
|
||
|
|
label = "input from node with number", -- label shown above of the element
|
||
|
|
default = "", -- default value
|
||
|
|
},
|
||
|
|
{
|
||
|
|
type = "textlist", -- formspec element
|
||
|
|
name = "value", -- reference key for the table 'data'
|
||
|
|
label = "is", -- label shown above of the element
|
||
|
|
choices = "on,off", -- list elements
|
||
|
|
default = 1, -- first list element as default value
|
||
|
|
},
|
||
|
|
{
|
||
|
|
type = "label",
|
||
|
|
name = "lbl", -- not really used, but internally needed
|
||
|
|
label = "Hint: Connect the input nodes with the controller",
|
||
|
|
},
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The table 'data' includes the condition/action related 'formspec' data.
|
||
|
|
For the above 'formspec' example, it is:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```LUA
|
||
|
|
data = {
|
||
|
|
number = <string>, -- the entered value of the "field",
|
||
|
|
value = <number>, -- the number of the selected element of the "textlist"
|
||
|
|
value_text = <string>, -- in addition the text of the selected element of the "textlist"
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
