Referring to property in PluginConfig.xml from Python

Hi,

I'm stuck on a simple question I'm hoping you can help with!

Info.plist

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
   <key>PluginVersion</key>
   <string>1.0.0</string>
   <key>ServerApiVersion</key>
   <string>1.0.0</string>
   <key>IwsApiVersion</key>
   <string>1.0.0</string>
   <key>CFBundleDisplayName</key>
   <string>LightwaveRF</string>
   <key>CFBundleIdentifier</key>
   <string>com.perceptiveautomation.indigoplugin.lightwaverf</string>
   <key>CFBundleVersion</key>
   <string>1.0.0</string>
   <key>CFBundleURLTypes</key>
   <array>
      <dict>
         <key>CFBundleURLName</key>
         <string>http://www.perceptiveautomation.com/userforum/viewforum.php?f=20</string>
      </dict>
   </array>
</dict>
</plist>

PluginConfig.xml

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<PluginConfig>
   <SupportURL>http://www.yourdomain.com/plugin/config.html</SupportURL>

   <Field id="wifilinkip" type="textfield" defaultValue="192.168.0.220">
      <Label>Wifilink IP Address:</Label>
   </Field>

</PluginConfig>

Could you let me know how I can refer to the "wifilinkip" property in the PluginConfig.xml from my python script?

I'm currently doing:

Code: Select all

indigo.server.log(u"Value is " + com.perceptiveautomation.indigoplugin.lightwaverf.wifilinkip)

But that's resulting in:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "plugin.py", line 56, in actionControlDimmerRelay
<type 'exceptions.NameError'>: global name 'com' is not defined

Thanks!

If you are inside the plugin config UI validate method, validatePrefsConfigUi(), then use:

Code: Select all

valuesDict["wifilinkip"]

Otherwise, use:

Code: Select all

self.pluginPrefs["wifilinkip"]

Got it!

Thanks again - the support you guys give is awesome by the way!
