Joviex's Addon Settings Transfer  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 14.07.03.1
by: Joviex [More]
If you are feeling generous donate anything you can! I accept paypal and ingame *gold or anything!
Every bit helps ease the monthly cost and any development time I do.

ingame - @Joviex

HUGE PROPS TO:
  • Wykkyd for the inspirational addons!
  • Seerah for the awesome LibAddonMenu wrapper
  • SinusPi && Errc for Zgoo <--- best support Addon, ever
Transfer your addon settings (non-global, character specific) from one character to as many characters as you want on a per addon basis.

They said it could not be done -- easily. Thanks Zgoo!

LICENSE

MIT License.

But I ask that you please let me know what/where you use any of the code.
I love to share, and I also love to pick through other code.

FEATURES
  • Toggle which characters receive the settings from the master character
  • Select which add-ons should transfer
  • Toggle to reload scene after transfer (Auto-Reload)
  • Toggle for per character per addon output (Show Debug)
  • Delete user settings -- right click on the "transfer" user
    • Little wonky if you do not have ALL addons turned on and you want to remove ALL settings
  • Dynamic scroll bar for addon lists that are over 20+ items (user selectable length in options)
  • Right-Click Addon list to toggle a single addon active (Useful for characters with lots of addons but you only need a few i.e. invert the selection set)
USAGE
  • Select a Master, only one will light up green
  • Select some targets. Any names in green are active targets
  • Select any add-ons. Any names in green are active targets
  • Click Transfer Settings!
TODO
  • Allow removal of user settings per add-on
  • Add prompt to confirm removal of character data
  • Add prompt to confirm overwrite of character data
  • Find some fix for "" entries -- Seems to be an overflow server problem
  • Get pretty print name for addons -- currently using the SavedVariable key name
KNOWN ISSUES
  • Waiting for someone to tell me =)
14.07.03.1

API Updated to ESO API 100007

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

14.5.23.1

API Updated to ESO API 100004

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

14.5.3.2

Extra check for entries/data as a table

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
14.5.3.1

+1 for standards.

It will now work for any authors who use non-standard (ZOS API) saved variable structures, up to a depth of 2 embedded tables.

If authors at least put the character name as an entry to the saved data and said data is the immediate entry under said character name.

If you don't know what I am saying, just let myself or the authors know anytime you see the copy/transfer not working right so I can look and see what non-standard way they did it.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
14.4.30.1

Starting to migrate functionality into seperate modules
Weird edge case where the entry for potential saved variables is not a table
Right-click addon list for toggling all off except one under cursor
-- Good for characters with lots of addons, but only a few need settings to transfer

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
14.4.26.2

Keep forgetting the update the version # o.0

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
14.4.26.1

Dynamic scrollbar for addon list
Scrollbar "item count" setting exposed in Options Panel

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
14.4.23.1

Slash command was pointing to nil
Version fixed to match the deployed version

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
14.4.22.1

Cleaned up some more calls
Squashed a potential error when there is no "entry" for a displayed account

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
14.4.21.1

little clean up on some initialization -- every bit counts!
now de-registers after initializing
Settings panel has some instructions on use
initialization posts usage after load /jovast
command added /jovast to toggle window
added right-click remove settings with confirmation -- little wonky if you do not have ALL addons turned on and you want to remove ALL settings

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
14.4.19.2

Set default "master" selection to the current logged in character
removed the Mercurial (.hg) folder
changed the license.txt to license.rd so it wont show in the add-on panel

An addon I've been waiting for since the release!
Unfortunately I'm getting this error when entering /jovast (and nothing else shows up)

Because all that data is still in the savedvariables of the various addons you have/do use.


This is why I added the right-click "remove" option.


Pick a character that you know is gone/dont want settings, etc... On the transfer side, right-click the label and select remove.


This will popup a dialog of sorts telling you how you are about to remove all data for the "selected" addons (bottom list) from the character you selected.


Ideally, what you really want to do, is make sure you turn on ALL addons that have the potential to contain data from old characters.


That way, no extra crud data is laying around when you delete it so they someday magically reappear in the list.


I had the same problem with the 2 characters you see in my screenshot, Lionohno e.g. the data was there and kept coming back because I dont always run with ZrMM addon, but when I turn it on, sure enough, it would load his old data.


Ergo the recommend to make sure all current addons you use are ON and then make sure they are all selected (green) and right-click remove! poof!

@Joviex
I agree with others that adding bindings seems a natural progression. BUT, i also see your point. Another thought is maybe you and Aiiane could hook up? (no-perv)
Anyway... since you do this work for free, this ain't no democracy. I accept it as you offer it and appreciate it very much! THANK YOU, JOVIEX!

It is!

One thing I would be concerned with is how pissed other authors who already wrote addons would be if I incorporated the same ideas.

Like Binder is a good example. I can actually write something that would allow transfer to work like Binder, but without having to load every character and use the commands to capture the information, just like this addon.

That is definitely "different", if not more convenient, I am just unsure if it is P.C. to do so.
I would definitely use an addon that could transfer ALL settings (bindings, addons, everything) from one character to another. However, while I use the exact same UI across all characters, many people prefer to have differences depending on class, or build, and things may vary across their characters. A more modular approach by using a combination of addons would likely be ideal for them. Personally I'd rather use one addon that can transfer all settings, rather than three (addons, chat filters, and keybindings... and possibly more as my needs evolve). Others however will still download and use the other authors' addons, so for what it's worth I feel that you would not be stepping on their toes.

Some people will still have a preference one way or the other, but it's always nice to have options.

I almost forgot to say thank you for this addon; it's going to save me hours of work.

It seems to me that your mod is much more full featured in so many ways when compared to similar mods. The inclusion of keybindings and other gameplay settings would only be a logical step. To complain about you adding these features to your mod would seem picayune. Especially if maintain consistency with your current mod by allowing the user to select what they want to include. That would be a significant departure from the all or the nothing approach others have used. Just my $.02

Great mod by the way!

Yup! this one is already in the next version.

I will push that out in a few hours.

If you have mhFrameWork installed, it will also hook that system for using his Macro(s) as well.
