We won't support this after all, it's too much of a headache with
regards to the sending queue. Pausing takes longer, cancelling takes
longer, resends get more complicated and so on.
Command expansion in the queuing phase needs to suffice.
System wide API key now offers a generate button like the user
API keys. Setting the API key directly to a value via the settings API
endpoint is now no longer possible, which should prevent setting it
accidentally thanks to the browser prefilling things where it shouldn't.
No delete button is offered for the system wide API key since it will
get automatically regenerated on server start if not set, so
regeneration is the only functionality here that makes sense.
If no API key is set in the user settings, the "delete" button is now
disabled. If a key is already set and a new one is to be generated, a
confirmation dialog makes sure this is really what the user wants. Same
for deleting an existing API key.
Both the system wide API key and the user specific API keys will now
only display a QRCode if there's actually a value for the key.
We now have a global OctoPrintClient, which is the class from which
all clients are derived, and a global OctoPrint, which is a single
instance already setup and ready to use in case we only need one.
It would be cleaner to have clients create that singular instance
themselves, but we need to maintain backward compatibility for now
with how we established the client to work with the 1.3.0 release.
New clients can be create with
client = new OctoPrintClient({ /* options */ });
Alternatively the options can be left out and set at a later point:
client = new OctoPrintClient();
/* ... */
client.options = { /* options */ };
Individual client components register themselves with OctoPrintClient
via OctoPrintClient.registerComponent(name, component) from the
component JS files. Just like before their instances are then
available in the individual client instances under "<client>.<name>",
e.g. "OctoPrint.files".
Plugin components register themselves with OctoPrintClient via
OctoPrintClient.registerPluginComponent(name, component) from the
component JS files. Just like before their instances are then
available in the individual client instances under "<client>.plugins
.<name>", e.g. "OctoPrint.plugins.softwareupdate".
This should make it possible to create dashboard pages utilizing the
JS client that monitor the status of multiple OctoPrint instances,
without workarounds such as having to swap out the options globally
before each request.
See #1681 for the corresponding discussion.
