With v7.6 now stabilised and bug-squashed. It was time to crack on with the next release.
If Node-RED 5 comes out fairly soon, the next release of UIBUILDER would be v8.0 since it will up the node.js baseline the same as Node-RED which is a potentially breaking change. No other breaking changes are planned at this time. Otherwise, it will be v7.7.
Planned changes at the moment are as follows. However, as always, if you have something you really would like to see, please let me know.
-
A new
<json-viewer>built-in web component is included. This gives a nice, collapsible, searchable and possibly even editable JavaScript Object and JSON viewer that can handle things thatJSON.stringifycannot. Preview below.The module that defines this can also be called from node.js (and therefore from function nodes as well) to render the HTML in Node-RED. Haven't quite worked out the best way to surface that but it is tested.
-
uib-sidebar- gets its data inputs fixed and now allows multiple sidebar nodes.Combine this with the JSON viewer and get a very nice, dynamic view of data in the sidebar that should easily handle MUCH larger datasets than the debug sidebar.
-
There is a new, much easier way to override the Content Security Policy header using a property in Node-RED's
settings.jsfile. -
Markweb gets both Mermaid diagram and Footnote support in the Markdown source.
-
Markweb also gets a fix for the optional status block in the page template.
Of course, knowing me, there will be lots more - but who knows, maybe this time I really will do a smaller release! ![]()
(The icon on the ROW1.COL1 entry doesn't show its tooltip here but it is a button to copy the value. Clicking the property name copies that name. The search bar is only shown if you click the search icon. The other 2 icons open/close all the details.)
