Dashboard2 Form populate with input

Dashboard
3

Thanks for quick reply,

how can I populate form fields by using msg in ui-template?

Edit:
managed to populate form with msg by directly accessing msg instead of creating temporary variables

  watch: {
    msg: function(){        
        this.barcode = this.msg.payload.barcode
    }
  },

@joepavitt I've also tried to use:

this.$socket.on('msg-input:' + this.id, this.handleMessage);

and I've noticed that watch persists field state after screen reload while $socket.on clears the field.

Is there documentation about Input message handling? best info I found while researching was:

and

maybe it would make sense to extend examples:

with ui-template example

<script>
    export default {
        data() {
            // define variables available component-wide
            // (in <template> and component functions)
            return {
                count: 0
            }
        },
        watch: {
            // watch for any changes of "count"
            msg: function (){
                //increase by incomming message
                if(this.msg.payload === "increase") this.count++

                //decrease by incomming message
                if(this.msg.payload === "decrease") this.count--   
            },
            count: function () {
                if (this.count % 5 === 0) {
                    this.send({payload: 'Multiple of 5'})
                }
            }
        },
        computed: {
            // automatically compute this variable
            // whenever VueJS deems appropriate
            formattedCount: function () {
                return this.count + 'Apples'
            }
        },
        methods: {
            // expose a method to our <template> and Vue Application
            increase: function () {
                this.count++
            }
        },
        mounted() {
            // code here when the component is first loaded
        },
        unmounted() {
            // code here when the component is removed from the Dashboard
            // i.e. when the user navigates away from the page
        }
    }
</script>

just my 2 cents
