Extension builder JSON variables

[wwonderfull]

I was reading instruction document of extension builder and had not found any JSON example. Just for experiment configuration was on a json which the js was fetching using the api.

{
"actionOne": $actionTwo$,
"actionTwo": $actionTwo$
}

for Boolean true false or others will the above method work Pablo? because I think it will throw a syntax error. I mean is JSON variables supported with the way extension builder works because I am not sure.

I think this should work. Did you try?

Was testing got something like this

Code: Select all

{
  "animationEnabled": $animationEnabled$
}

Error fetching the configuration: SyntaxError: Unexpected token '$', ..."Enabled": $animation"... is not valid JSON

Oh figured it out pablo it had to be a string "$variable$" it works

Update: One thing I noticed is that when I was writing name for the property the name was being taken as the variable. In terms of css it was very useful in terms of JavaScript I had to delete the variable after writing it again Maybe we could have a checkbox so if enabled it will automatically take the value from name and if unchecked it will let us write freely Because Names are names can have space and others, but variables have a specific way of writing. What do you think pablo.

For example, Name: Enable Animation
the way it is now doing in extension builder is automatically making it like $enableanimation$ which should correctly be $enableAnimation$ as written in script.
