Channel Configuration through UI [message #1719532] Fri, 08 January 2016 11:45 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Is it planned that PaperUI will support the configuration of Channels as well.
Meaning that besides enabling/disabling a channel it can also edit the Channel configurable options?

Or alternatively will habmin allowing this in the near term?

Or alternatively, is there a way that via commandline this is supported?

Planned yes, but not yet in any concrete planning phase. Feel free to create an issue for it - and if you have good ideas how the UI should look like for this feature, it would be even better Smile

I need a bit of help with this feature.
I see that it is implemented already - https://github.com/eclipse/smarthome/pull/1404, but can not see it working.

It can help, If you tell me, in which binding the channel configuration from the Paper UI is working. Smile

In my case, all bundles are up to date with the latest updates.

I have a channel:
<channel-type id="networkName">
		<item-type>String</item-type>
		<label>Network name</label>
		<description>The name of the network.</description>
		<state readOnly="true" pattern="%s " />
		<config-description-ref uri="systeminfo:channels:lowpriority" />
</channel-type>


and configuration file
<config-description uri="systeminfo:channels:lowpriority">
		<parameter name="priority" type="text">
			<label>Interval</label>
			<description>Refresh interval in seconds.</description>
			<options>
				<option value="High">High</option>
				<option value="Medium">Medium</option>
				<option value="Low">Low</option>
			</options>
			<default>Low</default>
		</parameter>
		<parameter name="pid" type="integer" min="-1" step="1">
			<label>PID</label>
			<description>The PID of the process. It is only used for channels from group 'process'.</description>
			<default>-1</default>
			<advanced>true</advanced>
		</parameter>
</config-description>

and a call to http://localhost:8080/rest/channel-types returns

....{"parameters":[{"defaultValue":"Low","description":"Refresh interval in seconds.","label":"Interval","name":"priority","required":false,"type":"TEXT","readOnly":false,"multiple":false,"advanced":false,"limitToOptions":true,"options":[{"label":"High","value":"High"},{"label":"Medium","value":"Medium"},{"label":"Low","value":"Low"}],"filterCriteria":[]},{"defaultValue":"-1","description":"The PID of the process. It is only used for channels from group \u0027process\u0027.","label":"PID","name":"pid","required":false,"type":"INTEGER","min":-1,"stepsize":1,"readOnly":false,"multiple":false,"advanced":true,"limitToOptions":false,"options":[],"filterCriteria":[]}],"parameterGroups":[],"description":"The name of the network.","label":"Network name","stateDescription":{"pattern":"%s ","readOnly":true,"options":[]},"tags":[],"UID":"systeminfo:networkName"}


but in the Paper UI the button is missing

<div class="actions">
	<!-- ngIf: getChannelFromChannelTypes(channel.channelTypeUID).parameters && getChannelFromChannelTypes(channel.channelTypeUID).parameters.length > 0 -->
</div>


Any hints, ideas ?

I have not yet seen this working in paperUI.
If you have OH, you can edit channel config through Habmin2 inferface.

I am not aware of any existing binding that uses channel configuration yet, but I had seen the feature working. I'll ask Aoun for help on analyzing why it isn't working for you.

Yes, it seems to have been broken due to https://github.com/eclipse/smarthome/pull/1288. I just created a pull request that should fix this issue (https://github.com/eclipse/smarthome/pull/1570).

Think zwave uses this possibility in some cases
Thanks Aoun for fixing this so quick
