AwesomeWM, vicious BTC widget does not update textbox - lua

I am trying to create a widget which displays the current BTC price, but the displayed widget is not updated.
First i create and register the widget with
mytextwidget = {
widget = wibox.widget.textbox,
}
btcbox = {
{
mytextwidget,
halign = "center",
layout = wibox.container.place,
},
forced_width = 100,
layout = wibox.layout.stack,
}
vicious.register(mytextwidget,vicious.contrib.btc,"$1",2,"eur")
I changed the btc widgets code, such that the indices of the returned table are numeric instead of the string "{price}", because i was not able to register it that way(maybe someone can tell me how to change the format string so that it works). I then add it to the default wibox with
s.mywibox:setup {
layout = wibox.layout.align.horizontal,
{ -- Left widgets
layout = wibox.layout.fixed.horizontal,
mylauncher,
s.mytaglist,
s.mypromptbox,
},
s.mytasklist,
-- Middle widget
{ -- Right widgets
layout = wibox.layout.fixed.horizontal,
mykeyboardlayout,
wibox.widget.systray(),
mytextclock,
batbox,
btcbox,
s.mylayoutbox,
}
}
As you can see there is also the batbox, which is setup the same way, except for registering to the vicious.widget.bat widget and this one works fine. I am new to awesomewm and especially Lua but i tried to reverse engineer through the vicious library and the text of the widget actually gets updated. I created a naughty notification which is called right after
widget.text = fmtd_data
in the init.lua of the vicious library, to display the widgets text and it is actually showing the correct result. Hopefully someone can explain it to me why this change is not displayed, thanks in advance!

Random guess without much time to try things out:
mytextwidget = {
widget = wibox.widget.textbox,
}
replace the above with
mytextwidget = wibox.widget.textbox()
Why am I suggesting this? Well, it's what is done on https://vicious.readthedocs.io/en/latest/examples.html#date-widget.

Is there a way for lazy loading with FlowRow?

I use FlowRow in the accompanist project to auto wrap my text items to next line. It works as intended. However, when I have a large dataset (which I already load with paging), I don't find an api like LazyColumn to load and build the items as needed, if I loop through the pager flow, it tries to load to build everything at once. Any adice please?
lazyPagingItems = pager.flow.collectAsLazyPagingItems()
FlowRow(
) {
val items = lazyPagingItems
for (index in 1..items.itemCount-1) {
Text(
text = word,
maxLines = 1
)
}
}
Little late to the party. But it seems you could use LazyVerticalGrid or LazyHorizontalGrid in adaptive mode like below.
LazyVerticalGrid(
columns = GridCells.Adaptive(/* item min size */)
) {
// Items
}

Horizontally centering a popup window in Vaadin

I have added a popup window to my main UI as follows:
Window component = new Window();
UI.getCurrent().addWindow(component);
Now, I want my popup to be centered horizontally and e.g. 40 pixels from the top of the screen. As far as I can see Vaadin has 4 methods for positioning my window.
component.center()
component.setPosition(x, y)
component.setPositionX(x)
component.setPositionY(y)
None of these are really what I want. I was hoping at first that setPositionY might help me. This does allow me to get the right distance from the top, but the x-position is now set to 0, where I wanted it to be centered.
The setPosition might have helped if I was able to calculate what the x-position should be, but this would require me to know the width of the component in pixels, but component.getWidth just tells me 100%.
Next I tried to use CSS styling on the component, writing and explicit css rule and adding it to the component with addStyleName. It seems though that Vaadin overrides whatever I wrote in my css with its own defaults...
Any ideas how to get my Window component positioned correctly?
I used the methods getBrowserWindowWidth() and getBrowserWindowHeight() from the com.vaadin.server.Page class for this.
I centered my "log" window horizontally in the lower part of the browser window with
myWindow.setHeight("30%");
myWindow.setWidth("96%");
myWindow.setPosition(
(int) (Page.getCurrent().getBrowserWindowWidth() * 0.02),
(int) (Page.getCurrent().getBrowserWindowHeight() * 0.65)
);
Solution 1: Use SizeReporter
Indeed, setPositionY() will reset the window's centered property to false. As the width of your pop-up and that of your browser window are not know before they appear on the screen, the only way I know to get those values is to use the SizeReporter add-on. Its use is quite straightforward:
public class MyUI extends UI {
private Window popUp;
private SizeReporter popUpSizeReporter;
private SizeReporter windowSizeReporter;
#Override
protected void init(VaadinRequest request) {
Button button = new Button("Content button");
VerticalLayout layout = new VerticalLayout(button);
layout.setMargin(true);
popUp = new Window("Pop-up", layout);
popUp.setPositionY(40);
addWindow(popUp);
popUpSizeReporter = new SizeReporter(popUp);
popUpSizeReporter.addResizeListenerOnce(this::centerPopUp);
windowSizeReporter = new SizeReporter(this);
windowSizeReporter.addResizeListenerOnce(this::centerPopUp);
}
private void centerPopUp(ComponentResizeEvent event) {
int popUpWidth = popUpSizeReporter.getWidth();
int windowWidth = windowSizeReporter.getWidth();
if (popUpWidth == -1 || windowWidth == -1) {
return;
}
popUp.setPositionX((windowWidth - popUpWidth) / 2);
}
}
This piece of code will be okay as long as you don't resize the pop-up. If you do, it will not be automatically recentered. If you replace addResizeListenerOnce() by addResizeListener() then it will automatically recenter the pop-up but you'll get some "UI glitches" as the add-on sends resize events almost continually while you're resizing your pop-up...
You could try to do it using CSS, but I personally avoid CSS as much as I can with Vaadin :).
You'll need to recompile the widgetset after you've added the add-on as a dependency.
Solution 2: Use com.vaadin.ui.JavaScript
I won't vouch for the portability of this solution but I guess it will work on most modern browsers.
public class MyUI extends UI {
private Window popUp;
#Override
protected void init(VaadinRequest request) {
Button button = new Button("Content button");
VerticalLayout layout = new VerticalLayout(button);
layout.setMargin(true);
popUp = new Window("Pop-up", layout);
popUp.setPositionY(40);
popUp.addStyleName("window-center");
addWindow(popUp);
// Add a JS function that can be called from the client.
JavaScript.getCurrent().addFunction("centerWindow", args -> {
popUp.setPositionX((int) ((args.getNumber(1) - args.getNumber(0)) / 2));
});
// Execute the function now. In real code you might want to execute the function just after the window is displayed, probably in your enter() method.
JavaScript.getCurrent().execute("centerWindow(document.getElementsByClassName('window-center')[0].offsetWidth, window.innerWidth)");
}
}

Draggable with Vue.js, not being able to return to original position

I'm attempting to have an element's draggable functionality depend on a click event. I'm using jquery-ui's draggable method (within a vue.js instance).
In my Vue instance I have these two data properties: isVisible and a isDraggable. They assume a truthy or falsy value each time the user clicks a button. On my methods object I have the following:
methods: {
toggleBox: function() {
this.IsVisible = !this.IsVisible;
this.isDraggable = !this.isDraggable;
}
}
I'm using the destroy method in order to have the targeted element return to its original position (documentation here). However, I am not getting the intended result, as can be seen in the jsfiddle below. The following is one of many (unsuccessful) attemtps to tackle this issue:
ready: function() {
this.$nextTick(function() {
if (this.isDraggable == true) {
$('.box').draggable({
containment: "window"
})
} else if (this.isDraggable == false) {
$('.box').draggable(
"destroy"
)
}
})
}
Jsfiddle here. I wonder what I'm doing wrong here? Any hint appreciated.
The ready function only gets called once, during initialization of the vm element. Whenever you click on the "toggle" button, there's nothing that tells the nextTick method to execute. I'm not at all familiar with the vue api, so there probably will be a way to do what you want using the nextTick method.
Given my lack of knowledge regarding the api, I came up with a solution that seemed the most straightforward for your requirements i.e. updating the toggleBox method to check the isDraggable property and resetting the position of the box according to its value.
If you introduce other elements, you'd need to implement a solution that takes into account all of the default positions and re-apply them when you click the "toggle" button.
toggleBox: function() {
this.IsVisible = !this.IsVisible;
this.isDraggable = !this.isDraggable;
if (this.isDraggable) {
$('.box').draggable({
containment: "window"
})
} else if (!this.isDraggable) {
$('.box').offset({ top: 8, left: 8});
}
}
Fiddle example
Adding to #Yass's answer above, if instead of hard-coding the offset's top position of the element .box , you wanted to calculate it, here's one way to do it (which is useful in those cases where the browser's window changes size for instance):
toggleBox: function() {
this.IsVisible = !this.IsVisible;
this.isDraggable = !this.isDraggable;
var body = document.body.getBoundingClientRect();
var element = document.querySelector('.box').getBoundingClientRect();
var topPos = body.height - element.height;
if (this.isDraggable) {
$('.box').draggable({
containment: "window"
})
}
else if (!this.isDraggable) {
$('.box').offset({
top: this.topPos,
left: 8});
}
}

Custom Elements / Shadow Root in DART lang vs Shadow Root in JavaScript

I've the this Shadow Element/root in this example http://jsfiddle.net/fyf6thte/8/ working perfectly with JavaScript, interested to have similar one with DART, so I wrote the below code (using the same html and css file), but I could not see the button it looks theshadow.innerHTML = '<button id="d">click</button>'is not working
the full code is:
import 'dart:html';
void main() {
var thehost = document.querySelector('#host1');
document.registerElement(fonixDiv.tag, fonixDiv);
thehost.append(new fonixDiv());
}
class fonixDiv extends HtmlElement {
static final tag = 'fonix-div';
var shadow;
bool disabled;
factory fonixDiv() => new Element.tag(tag);
fonixDiv.created() : super.created() {
shadow = this.createShadowRoot();
shadow.host.innerHTML = '<button id="d">click</button>';
shadow.host.onClick.listen((e){
this.host.dataset.disabled='true'; // set Attribute to the custom element
});
shadow.children.d.onClick.listen((e){
this.text = "you clicked me :(";
// or shadow.children[0].textContent="Shadow DOM content changed";
this.disabled=true;
// alert("All: button, text and host should be change");
});
}
#override
void attached() {
super.attached();
this.disabled=disabled;
}
}
I'm not sure about the accuracy of the balance of the code, I can check it only after I see the button.
any help.
The error is correct: in Dart 'this' is not bound contextually as in JS and instead we have lexical scoping;
in your dart code you are actually changing the text content of the custom element and not of the target of the event (the button in the shadow root). So basically you have a custom element, you set the text content on it but you also have a shadow root created inside of that same DOM node and it shadows everything else you put inside that custom element and that is why you do not see it and continue to see the shadow root's content - this is how shadow root works by design.
To fix it you need to update the text content (and the disabled property) on the button (for example e.target.text = ...).
Hope this helps.
Seems like the .host should be removed from this line
shadow.host.innerHTML = '<button id="d">click</button>';
shadow.innerHTML = '<button id="d">click</button>';
The jsfiddle doesn't have it and it seems weird. I think with .host you add it basically to this and therefore as child not as content.
I think the main issue is: Use innerHtml instead of innerHTML.
There are a few additional minor things you need to fix:
Remove 'host', as Gunter says, you want to set the innerHtml of the shadow.
Instead of shadow.children.d.onClick, do shadow.querySelector('#d').onClick.
Also, do dataset['disabled'] instead of dataset.disabled.

How to set element positions with dart_web_toolkit?

im new to dart and need to create a dynamic dom structure.
At the moment i use the dart_web_toolkit but im missing a position function for elements.
You can set the width and height but no position(top, left) for the element.
Am i missing something there, or can someone give me a solution for this?
Edit:
I have a Label with 2 Buttons in it and i can edit the Buttons size with "setPixelSize"
but i need something like "b1.setPosition" and i cant find this method to position my elements (in this example buttons).
At the moment they are just put after another in relation to the Label.
final el = querySelector('#body');
ui.Label rootLabel = new ui.Label();
rootLabel.addStyleName("root-style");
ui.RootPanel.get().addWidget(rootLabel, el);
final el1 = querySelector('.root-style');
ui.Button b1 = new ui.Button();
b1.text = "Button 1";
b1.addStyleName("b1");
b1.setPixelSize(30, 50);
ui.RootPanel.get().addWidget(b1, el1);
ui.Button b2 = new ui.Button();
b2.text = "Button 2";
b2.addStyleName("b2");
b1.setPixelSize(60,60);
ui.RootPanel.get().addWidget(b2, el1);
I just looked a bit thought the code of https://github.com/akserg/dart_web_toolkit/blob/afac7aac09e3bcd9d3e1f926815eb85040e46e07/lib/src/ui/button_base.dart
and it seems you should get the Element instance by calling b1.getElement() which should allow to access all elements properties like
b1.getElement().style
..position = 'absolute'
..top = '10px'
..left = '25px';
not tested though.
