Reflux

Version: 10.0.2

by: Kagaro, snichols1122

Managed by Gatorsniper-Area52 (Horde) (US) Battletag: Gator#1210

Reflux is a small lightweight profile manager. With the coming of dual specs, and people building ui compilations. I built this little manager. Its goal it to allow you to easily switch all your addon profiles in one fair swoop. For Addons that don't support profiles it emulates a profile. All emulations are done by the user and none come pre configured out of the box. The user chooses if he/she wishes to emulate a profile for any addon. Emulation is not needed for any addon that uses Ace2/3DB as profiles are built in.

As ALWAYS be sure to BACKUP your WTF folder before using.

Example of usage

This example assumes your setting up a brand new profile.

/reflux create MyProfile

This will switch all current ace db based addons to this profile and setup the emulation profile.

Now i configure a bunch of stuff and notice my unit frames dont have support for profiles... Well i can fix that! First i need to check the .toc for my unit frames in this case StufUnitFrames. I find the #SavedVariables: StufDB line in the toc indication that is where it saves its configuration information. So now in game I simply add that saved variable to reflux

/reflux add StufDB

Now reflux will emulate a profile for Stuf. I finish up configuring my ui. Im pretty happy with it. Now that im done I need to save the emulated profile

/reflux save

Now my emulated profile has been saved. Lets do a quick reload to ensure our data is saved to disk.

We are done! now my ui is setup with my new profile. Lets go create another profile for my alt.

/reflux create MyAltProfile

my screen is now back to initial state all un configured. My alt is a different class so this isn't a big deal. (Future enhancement will be to copy a profile set so you can create a base config then tweak). Now i do more work...

What about stuf? Do i need to add it again? Nope its already been emulated so no need to add it again.

Now I save my new profile

/reflux save

Now I switch my main back to its original profile.

/reflux switch MyProfile

bingo my ui is now all set back up.

I log into my alt and type

/reflux switch MyAltProfile

and now my alts ui is all setup.

If you want to clear out all your reflux data /reflux cleardb and bingo its all gone. You ace profiles are still there, but the emulated profiles will be cleared.

Type /reflux to see a list of commands.

New Commands
/reflux addons [profile]
Switch addon set to what was saved int he profile. Due to technical reason you need to switch afterwards

/reflux save now optionally takes an 'addons' flag to store addon state
so /reflux save addons will save current addon list in the emualted profile.

/reflux copy [target profile]
will attempt to copy the target profile into your current profile. this will reload the ui when complete.

/reflux delete [profile]
will delete a profile. Please note you can NOT delete the current active profile.

/reflux snapshot [profile] (EXPERIMENTAL)
will create a new profile and scan each addon copying thier current profiles to the new one.

Ok I think I understand now. So my UI is all ready to go and I want to make a profile. I download Reflux, install it, log in and type:

/reflux create Boda UI Currently all profiles are named Bodasafa -Eldre'thalas , does that matter?

It saves the profiles for all Ace(or supported addons) and then to add a non-supported one I look in the .toc file and find the saved variables line. For example in minimap button frame I see:

## SavedVariables: MBFDB

So in game I would type:

/reflux add MBFDB

Once I have all of the addons in the profile I type:

/reflux save

Then I'm done and when people download my UI they will just have to log in and type:

/reflux switch Boda UI

Then all the profiles will be set and they are done correct? If so I only have 1 more question. Is there a command to see what addons are saved to the profile or do I have to look at each addon to see if its Ace supported?

I was wondering if you could walk me through the steps I need to take. I have my UI all ready to go, some of the addons are Ace, some are not.

So if I understand your instructions and comments correctly I just type /reflux snapshot Boda

Then I'm done? or do I need to emulate profiles?
If I do need to emulate profiles whats the process?
What command do I type for example?

just add stuff to the emulation list and save should be enough

which will take all your current settings and create a new profile for everything. The goal was you could create the ui then snapshot it, add any savedvariables you need do a save and be done.

so /reflux snapshot [the new profile name you want here]

but snapshot will not emulate profiles (stuf in my case), will it? i mean, do i still have to emulate a profile for stuf and set it up again and then save it?

I copied the profile from my main to tweak it a bit for my alts needs and all of a sudden my dogtag based tags on pitbull4 where gone. so i opened up pitbull to see if somehow my texts got diabled but they just don't exist. i can open the pulldown menu but it's just an empty blackbox. /rl and logout didn't help either. just wanted you to know, maybe i find out what caused this. edit: switching back and forth between my two profiles not helping either.

I have a fix for that on the wowace site, as a beta version. The error occurs if you dont have any proofiles define in reflux.

Kuzah A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 9 File comments: 38 Uploads: 0	I tried to emulate a profile for pMinimap. /reflux add pMinimapDB /reflux save This doesn't seem to save the settings when going to another character and /reflux switch MyProfile. It just behaves like it would with or without reflux. Would anyone be able to shed some light on this? Also, I can't seem to get Chatter's position, width, and height to save as well even though it does have a profile system.

Kuzah A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 9 File comments: 38 Uploads: 0	When I created a new reflux profile it reset it, so it won't save your current ui layout. In my opinion it's worth the time to set it up again. I was going to ask why reflux didn't save the emulated profile for azcastbar (/reflux add AzCastBar_Profiles), but then realized I never typed /reflux save before I tested it on another character. Oops. Last edited by Kuzah : 02-01-10 at 01:32 AM.

Just checking because ive heard this is the case and its also why i havent started using this yet: i have my ui set up pretty much how i want it, the problem being that my main druid is tank/resto and i'd like to move stuff around, for example fortexorcist, grid; if i download this addon to make a profile for each, does this wipe my current ui set up? (specifically stuf)
