Broker ItemRack Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Minimalistic LDB plugin for Gello's ItemRack addon. Tested with both v2.23 and v2.243 (WoTLK).

The plugin provides two simple functions (so far).

a) Shows your currently equipped ItemRack set (or 'Custom Outfit' if your gear doesn't match a predefined set).

b) Allows you to switch between outfits, via a Left-Click ItemRack frame menu (you may change its orientation) and invokes the ItemRack configuration menu, via a simple Right-Click. You may enable/disable ItemRack events via Alt-Right Click.

Bear in mind that Broker_ItemRack does not provide it's own display, you will need a LDB-based display addon, such as Fortress, Carousel, StatBlockCore, Titan etc. This addon also requires ItemRack in order to do anything (it will warn you accordingly if it does not detect ItemRack).

Change Log - Broker ItemRack

1.9 [2009.06.05]
- Fixed an issue with the plugin icon not always updating properly when an outfit was changed.
- Updated .toc with proper tags for Minion support.
----------------------------------
1.8b [2009.04.13]
- Updated .toc to 30100.
- AceLocale update.
- Fixed a few global references for code brevity.
----------------------------------
1.8 [2009.02.03]
- Moved saved variables initialization from VARIABLES_LOADED to ADDON_LOADED event for reliability and performance purposes.
- Fixed a bug where the tooltip would not properly reflect the state of Itemrack events (enabled/disabled).
----------------------------------
1.7 [2009.01.05]
- Implemented a workaround for displays using generic frame references. This should (hopefully) fix the issue with the ItemRack menu not appearing on CargoShip and DockingStation.
----------------------------------
1.6 [2008.11.02]
- Removed the "hack" specific to ButtonBin that ensures the ItemRack set frame is properly shown, as it is no longer required with the new ButtonBin version. Special thanks to Neotron for implementing individual button frames.
----------------------------------
1.5 [2008.10.16]
- Implemented proper setting of ItemRack events, across characters.
----------------------------------
1.4 [2008.10.14]
- Specified the DO type as "data source".
- Moved LibDataBroker-1.1 outside libs to properly support no-external version.
- Ace3 lib update.
- Implemented a feature to enable/disable ItemRack events via Alt-Right Click.
- .toc bump for WoW 3.0
----------------------------------
1.3 [2008.09.22]
- The addon will now force a button update whenever you save/update an outfit, by post-hooking the relevant ItemRack_Options function.
----------------------------------
1.2 [2008.09.02]
- Fixed an issue with ButtonBin not displaying the ItemRack frame properly.
----------------------------------
1.1 [2008.09.01]
- Added an option to configure ItemRack frame orientation (Horizontal/Vertical).
- Fixed an error when the addon would attempt to show the ItemRack frame, using an invalid frame reference.
- Modified .toc so that ItemRack is now a ReqDep instead of an OptDep.
----------------------------------
1.0 [2008.08.25]
- Initial release

Tristanian Andúril Forum posts: 280 File comments: 264 Uploads: 7	Once approved, version 1.7 should fix the issue with the menu not displaying when using CargoShip and DockingStation. Please report if that is not the case, or any other errors pop up. The behavior of the addon on the other displays should be the same as before.

Can you look into it?

Nothing I can do about it, CargoShip creates a frame with a nil name and is setting scripts (including OnClick) on that nameless frame. It's impossible for me to anchor the menu since I need a valid frame reference not to mention showing it. At least with ButtonBin I could use the parent as a workaround, until after a discussion with Neotron, he decided to "fix" this, to avoid future issues like it. This addon was never designed to work in the way CargoShip likes to render LDB objects, at least when it comes to doing something more complicated with clicks than calling some random API function.

The requested feature has been implemented and you should expect it to be released soon(tm).

Alt-Right Click on the button/block will now either enable or disable events and it will work exactly as the minimap button.

That's likely because MRGN creates that frame. Anyway, I do have an idea that I'm willing to try out today and if it works, it should fix the "issue" in an "ugly" way though.

Never mind, I tested it right now in both live and Wotlk Beta. As I suspected, ButtonBin is the only display exhibiting this behavior. For some reason it doesn't "pass" a valid frame to the DO's OnClick function attribute and I believe it doesn't do this for any of its "launchers" (every other single display that I tested: Carousel, Fortress, Titan, StatBlockCore, does so), so when the function is actually called, Broker Itemrack "passes" a bogus frame as an argument to the ItemRack.DockWindows function and the error occurs once Itemrack attempts to index the name of the frame (since it is nil). I have implemented a check to eliminate the error on my side but the plugin will still show nothing when left clicked, in ButtonBin. That's the best I can do, unless there is something I'm terribly missing or someone else comes up with a better idea.

I'm on the WotLK beta realms (3.0.2.8885), using ItemRack 2.243 (WotLK), with ButtonBin as my display addon, in case any of that is important.

Well, given that this plugin has no function if ItemRack isn't loaded, it's hardly restricting to make it unable to without ItemRack.
