MMM-ProfileSwitcher, A Profile/User/Layout Switching Module

[strawberry 3.141]

@Mar that is also an es6 feature try classes.indexOf(self.current_profile) !== -1

@strawberry-3.141 Thanks, I couldnt figure that one out.

return classes.indexOf(self.current_profile) !== -1;

Along with the changes in the previous post I’ve have fully loaded ProfileSwitcher Midori without any errors. It also is showing the correct modules on load (classes = default).

Thanks for the help through this @strawberry-3-141

Managed to figure this all out so thanks to everyone!

@strawberry-3-141 thank you for helping @Mar

@All @Mar I didn’t know that that browser doesn’t support those features. I will rewite those parts so then it should work out of the box.

@all I pushed a small update so that older browers should also be able to use this module.
@Mar They are the same changes that you made.

@tosti007 Thanks for updating your module so quickly! and obviously thanks for taking the time to respond and maintain.

@all Thanks to @roramirez we now have Spanish translations! :D

@tosti007 When switching between profiles, there is a short timespan where both the modules of the old profile and of the new profile, is present at the screen at the same time. Is there a way to ensure that the old modules fadeout first, and once they are gone, the new modules will fade in?

[tosti007]

@mortenbirkelund Yes there is, however that would mean that the code has to loop over the modules twice, which isn’t a great thing to do performance wise. I will write a bit of code that does it for you and post it here soon.

Edit: here is the code, all you need to do it replace the whole set_profile function inside the MMM-ProfileSwitcher.js file.

The code:

// Change the current layout into the new layout given the current profile
set_profile: function (useEveryone) {
    var self = this;

    var options = {};
    if (self.config.useLockStrings) {
        options.lockString = self.identifier;
    }

    MM.getModules().exceptWithClass(self.config.ignoreModules).enumerate(function (module) {
        if (!self.isVisible(self, useEveryone, module.data.classes)) {
            module.hide(self.config.animationDuration, function () {
                Log.log(module.name + " is hidden.");
            }, options);
        }
    });

    MM.getModules().exceptWithClass(self.config.ignoreModules).enumerate(function (module) {
        if (self.isVisible(self, useEveryone, module.data.classes)) {
            module.show(self.config.animationDuration, function () {
                Log.log(module.name + " is shown.");
            }, options);
        }
    });
},

Note: Once again this is not so great performance wise, but I dont think you will notice much of it

@tosti007 Thank you very much. Very kind of you to create the code for me.

I am new to using Git. How do i alter your my copy of your module, without risking that it will be overwritten on an update? Or is that not something that i should be concerned about?

[mortenbirkelund]

@tosti007 In case anybody is interested, the block of codes that enables the modules, should be altered a bit in order to take the animationDuration into account.

		setTimeout(function() {			
			MM.getModules().exceptWithClass(self.config.ignoreModules).enumerate(function (module) {
				if (self.isVisible(self, useEveryone, module.data.classes)) {
					module.show(self.config.animationDuration, function () {
						Log.log(module.name + " is shown.");
					}, options);
				}
			});			
		}, self.config.animationDuration);
