Bag Count running under Fortress

Bag Count [Data Broker]

An LDB plugin to display the number of bag slots you have available.

To see the options in game, as well as their current settings.
/bagcount

Bags are split into "normal" bags and "special" bags. Special bags are things like Soul Shard bags, Herbalism bags, etc. Normal bags are bags into which anything can be placed.

If you'd like to change whether empty slots or total slots are shown:
/bagcount style normal
/bagcount style special

If you'd like to show/hide a particular bag type:
/bagcount display normal
/bagcount display special

If you'd like to show/hide the total slots:
/bagcount total normal
/bagcount total special

True. I had Shardbag Hider (which itself is a continuation of Soulpouch) but both of those get weird with bag addons. I don't use bag addons (don't like all my bags being in one) but I use Neat Freak, which has auto open/close for bags at certain locations and sorts your bags based on criteria you have. Don't know if this counts or not...anywho, I'm trying to learn lua, and I figured a good way was to jump into addons that I like but that aren't maintained anymore, figure out why they don't work and muck about with them. The worst I can do is break them more! That's why the long delay in my response to your response. Thanks for your great explanation, that makes a lot of sense, and no, I don't want this to become a nightmare for you. XD

Sorry for the delay, I've added a fix for this in the latest version.

I've actually been doing some experimentation involving this in some of my other projects, and it would not be too difficult to add to this addon at some point. I'll see if I can get around to it at some point.

Well, they do get considered to be special bags, and thus separated yeah. It is possible to include them in the total slots, and I may provide an option for this as well.

Originally posted by xtoq I really want to open all my bags with one click (...) any way to suppress opening of the special bags when opening the bags?

Well, firstly, the whole point of this addon is to simply display slot counts in one form or another so the user can see a numerical representation of what is available there without having to open their bags. Adding in functionality such as opening up bags is a little beyond the scope of the addon.

However, I thought maybe it'd be nice just for the basic click functionality - until I began to ponder how to open up the bags. Now, the default UI has static methods of being able to open all bags or just one bag, etc. and those would not be hard to implement.

Where it gets complicated is when a user has a bag mod installed. (I use cargBags, for example) Many bag mod authors are smart enough to add in default UI hooks in order for their addon to be opened when the default bags would have been. But not all bag addons do this, and they would not get the bag open calls properly.

Because of this, in order to add in such functionality, I would have to examine every bag addon out there (or selectively choose to support only a few) and find out how they open their bags. If they do not use any hooking functions, then I would have to add code expressly for those addons. As you might imagine, this would quickly become a nightmare, not to mention having to update the code every time a bag addon updated.

Now, you may just be using the default bags, and that's cool - but without determining if someone was running a bag addon or not, I would not be able to interact with only the default bags (if usingBaggins then don't continue type logic). As mentioned before, this would require me to keep a list of all known bag addons and check for their presence before opening the default bags. For many addons they would not even flinch, but there are certainly at least a few which would choke at this point.

The only alternative is to provide the functionality for default bag frames to be opened, but leave it off by default, and let the user decide if they want to use it. But for those who are not using it, I feel it's a waste of memory for them, just to offer it for a few people. And again, it's kinda outside the scope of what this addon intends to do.

But in the end, I have my bag addon bound to the B key, and it just opens things up with a single press anyhow. I'm sure you have a similar keybind?

edit: grrrrrrrrrr

And lastly, what about the option to open the backpack on left click, and open all bags on right click? And the option to switch that around? I want to be able to open my bags with only clicking on this LDB plugin, and I really want to open all my bags with one click.

ALSO, while I have you here, any way to suppress opening of the special bags when opening the bags? Since you love making addons... =) JK of course, but that would make this the best bag addon evah!

Thanks for all your hard work and putting up with my requests and commentary lol.

Already included. Per the slash commands on the front page, type /bagcount display [full|empty] to toggle between the two.

Ack, it's my stalker! lol j/k

Well, you got me all interested in these LDB things, so this addon is all your fault. *nod* You know, I came here today to upload my newest version with basic specialty bag functionality, and here's your comment asking for a feature, which I just couldn't resist taking the time to add in. So... Both specialty bag display and total slot hiding is in this latest version.

Now, I'm pondering whether I should add the options for showing totals, as well as empty/full for both regular and specialty bags. For now, the options are globally placed on both (ie, if you hide total slots, it's for both the specialty bag and the regular bags). Doing this would allow for perhaps showing say - Bags: emptyslots/totalslots Shards: filledslots. Anyhow, that's something I'm contemplating doing (and thus probably will XD)
