Feature: create more type of forms

Scope

Frontend (User Interface)

Description

It would be good to use other type of variable, for example drop down menu, etc...

Greetings!

Makes sense - yes.

Just to clarify: you are talking about the custom execution, yes?

If we use the current format we could use something like that: var_choice=action_type#Action to perform#add,update,delete

Which would create a dropdown with:

• Title: Action to perform
• Set variable: action_type
• Dropdown choices: add, update and delete

What do you think?

@ansibleguy

yes, talking about custom execution.

It seems good yes!

Or also think that would be good to define the type of variables... for example string, number, password, url, etc... and in interface, only accept these type of values.

similar with suse manager salt formulas editor:

What do you think of that approach? I think a regex is easy to implement and can empower users to validate their data as needed.

[vampywiz17]

Yes it seems really good!

Would be nice if you could give some feedback on the feature: https://github.com/ansibleguy/webui/releases/tag/0.0.22-2

Hi, I tested it. the option works well! the new configuration mode is also good. but I think the regex is a problem. I'm trying to set a variable that only receives email. I'm using these regexes, but it seems to accept any string:

I use a wrong regex, now it working well :)

What do you think the grouping? For example:

Yeah. Will give it a shot when I find time (:
