Hi folks, The godfather of all Blockly nodes (alias @cymplecy ) has given his blessing to publish version 1.0.0 on NPM. So here it is finally. @knolleary : I assume you still have to add it manually to the pallette manager index? Thanks for doing that ! Thanks for all feedback and support from th…

Hi Mike, thanks for joining our discussion! [image] mikeS7: add ability to use require-from-string Never used that before. Do you want it to add extra libraries, without having to specify them in the settings.js file? If so, can the generated code be copied to a function node (or will the …

Besides to the 'default values' discussion, I have another dilemma... I'm developing Date/Time blocks, but seems that Javascript standard support for Date/Time lacks some of the functionalities that I need. For example I want to format a date like this: yyyy-mm-dd hh:MM:ss Could accomplish thi…

[image] BartButenaers: The advantage is that it is plain Javascript code, so you can easily copy it to e.g. a function node .... I could use the ' moment node ' ... but you cannot simply copy the generated code to a function node. Indeed, the user will have to specify the moment node in his …

[image] BartButenaers: A summarize of the possible solutions: .... 2. Add a default value somehow to the current get-block. ... 4. Create a new OR-block that accepts any value. I would go for 2 or 4. And my favorite is 2, to keep the number of blocks under control. 2 is the last option o…

[image] cymplecy: I don't think moment can be used if it requires editing the settings.js file Ok that was the answer I was hoping for. Just wanted to make sure that I had developed it correctly ... [image] cymplecy: I did some googling and came up with this as possible solution The t…

[image] BartButenaers: y male neural network has now concluded that Simon only wants option 4. Is this result correct? I would vote for not having option 4 either but it not the show stopper that option 2 is :slight_smile: I'd just like to quote an earlier comment [image] N…

[image] BartButenaers: Which label should this option needs to get in the dropdow list: ISO, ISO-8601, YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.sssZ, ... ???? I'd only have it going down as far as seconds to YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ "long" ? or "long date" [as its a short name :slight_smile: ] Or maybe "full" o…

Just to say more on the || Block As I discovered recently, we are "stuck" with the core blocks I think that getting round a small issue (such as OR not accepting anything other than true/false/a variable arguments ) and making a special block that doesn't really do anything different that a core o…

I tend to agree. It is tempting to keep adding everything including the kitchen sink. It may be good to pause a while to wait to see what the "real" issues are faced by users. It is always easier to add extra features later, rather than have to deprecate/change/break or remove them later.

[image] cymplecy: we shouldn't even have a date block I agree 100% that we don't need a kitchen-sink-block ( thanks for the lovely words Dave :smile: ). For example the ioBroker project has a series of blocks like send-email, send-tweet ... Since we already have great Node-RED nodes to acco…
