Issues understanding output filter module well

[hkais]

As of the documentation a better solution would be to output html changes via a output filter.

my Issue is, that I cannot follow the documentation. I understood, that there would be added a javascript hook on page ready status to modify the DOM
Hope I understood this point.

The second unclear point is the lack of finding the examples in the code based on the doc provided.

if we consider this configuration

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<otrs_config version="2.0" init="Config">
    <Setting Name="Ticket::Frontend::AgentTicketZoom###Widgets###0075-MyExtension" Required="0" Valid="1">
        <Description Translatable="1">AgentTicketZoom widget that ...</Description>
        <Navigation>Frontend::Agent::View::TicketZoom</Navigation>
        <Value>
            <Hash>
                <Item Key="Module">Kernel::Output::HTML::TicketZoom::MyExtesion</Item>
                <Item Key="Location">Sidebar</Item>
            </Hash>
        </Value>
    </Setting>

Is there a full documentation of the available Values for the Output filter configuration?

So here I have taken a look on this extension and now I am confused since I do not find the mapping of Sidebar to the final destination.

The example here https://doc.znuny.org/znuny/developer/e ... ter-module is referring

Code: Select all

CustomerTable

in

Code: Select all

AgentTicketZoom.tt

but I cannot clearly find the corresponding reference.

So question is:
is the referred a html css id?
If not, what is it specifically? And where to find all the references / locations?

no hints/help here?

Hi,

What is your goal here? For a widget on the right side in ATZoom, no output filter is required.
You need the registration (XML), a TemplateToolkit file and a Perl module passing data into the template. Check TicketInformation as an example.

my goal is to try to understand the output filter and to understand how to and where to use it.

How to integrate the module into the UI is clear.

But it is not clear in what cases and why the output filter is required. Therefore I tried to implement something to understand it better. I checked the documentation, but it seems the documentation is outdated and inconsistent to this topic.

I was just referring to the code you posted, and I assumed you wanted a sidebar widget. If we're talking about output filter: I'm out.
