Allowing saving/loading account-wide conditions snippets
RamyRafik opened this issue ยท 2 comments
I can't express how helpful the addon is. I've been using it for several years and I can't imagine playing without it!
I run many alts. When playing on a certain character, I may put some time coding a complex expression to filter groups the way I want.
When switching to another character, it'd be useful if I can "load" that expression from the first character and tweak it, instead of writing it from scratch, or relog-copy-relog-paste.
It also helps when "resetting" the expression by mistake.
Requirements:
- Maintaining a list of expressions within account-wide settings, each entry is a filter expression and a name
- "Save" button to save the expression (with a user-defined name) to the list
- "Load" button to load any of the saved expressions, overwriting the current expression
Nice-to-have
- A warning when loading before overriding current expression
- Rename/Delete for saved filters
- Allowing categorizing the expressions within "Mythic+"/"Raid"/"PVP", .. etc Categories
- "Share" option to share filters with other players (like what WeakAura does)
There are already two possible implementations, although both way out of date:
- enkol did a tab implementation in https://github.com/enkol/wow-premade-groups-filter. Code is stored in branch feature/tabs-by-enkol
- rickardkarlsson did a load/store implementation in #52. Code is stored in branch feature/load-store-by-rickardkarlsson
Keeping this issue open for now as a future idea. No implementation planned at the moment.
Hello @RamyRafik
While waiting for the creation of this template / save functionality (if there is one day), a solution could be to create one or more personal / common macro on each of your character :
