Any idea to consolidate the bolster buffs?

Is it possible to consolidate all the bolster buffs into one?

Code:

local function postUpdateAura (element, unit)

  element.bolster, element.bolsterIndex = 0, 0



  local visibleBuffs = element.visibleBuffs

  for i = 1 , visibleBuffs do

    local name, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, spellID = UnitAura(unit, i, "HELPFUL")

    if name and spellID == 209859 then

      element.bolster = element.bolster + 1

      if element.bolster > 1 then

        element[i]:Hide()

        visibleBuffs = visibleBuffs - 1

      else

        element[i]:Show()

        element.bolsterIndex = i

      end



      element[element.bolsterIndex].count:SetText(element.bolster)

    end



    element.visibleBuffs = visibleBuffs

end

Kind of stuck, it seems like not affect anything.

:PostUpdate runs after anchoring is done. The sanest solution would probably be to implement a :CustomFilter . Alternatively you could probably abuse :PreSetPosition to do what you want.

Code:

local function customFilter(element, _, _, name, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, spellID)

  element.bolster = element.bolster or 0



  if name and spellID == 209859 then

    element.bolster = element.bolster + 1



    if element.bolster > 1 then

      return true

    else

      return false

    end

  end



end



local function postUpdateAura(element, unit)

  local visibleBuffs = element.visibleBuffs

  local found

  for i = 1, visibleBuffs do

    local name, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, spellID = UnitAura(unit, i, "HELPFUL")

    if name and spellID == 209859 then

      element[i].count:SetText(element.bolster)

      found = true

    end

  end



  if not found then element.bolster = 0 end

end

Not working either :(
The way I did in customFilter, not just show one icon as I thought.

Use buffs.PreUpdate to reset buffs.bolster.
Increment buffs.bolster and return false in your custom filter for every spellID == 209859.
Use buffs.PostUpdate to set the stacks and display your icon.

The problem here is if you try to display an aura oUF has not yet created a button for, so you will have to override buff.CreateIcon and call it.

Another solution would be to return true for the first bolster buff you encounter in your custom filter and save the index for it. Return false for all bolster buffs afterwards to hide them. Then in buffs.PostUpdate just update the buff button at the index you saved previously. This won't work if you use sort your buffs.

Thank you Rainrider, you wake me up.

Code:

local function preUpdateForBolster(element)

        element.bolster = 0

        element.bolsterIndex = nil

end



local function customFilterForBolster(element, _, button, name, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, spellID)

        if name and spellID == 209859 then

                element.bolster = element.bolster + 1

                if not element.bolsterIndex then

                        element.bolsterIndex = button

                        return true

                end

        end

end



local function postUpdateForBolster(element)

        if not element.bolsterIndex then return end

        for _, button in pairs(element) do

                if button == element.bolsterIndex then

                        button.count:SetText(element.bolster)

                        return

                end

        end

end

Hmmm, it works perfectly now. Although it is not Bolstering this week in mythic +.

If someone interested about this and want to have a go, you can just change the customfilter as below to test it.

Code:

local function customFilterForBolster(element, _, button, name, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, _, spellID)

        if name then

                element.bolster = element.bolster + 1

                if not element.bolsterIndex then

                        element.bolsterIndex = button

                        return true

                end

        end

end

And there would be just one icon shows up and it counts how many auras the unit owns.
