Get or Set settings data when using ketcher-react

[zspishere]

Hi, Ketcher is a great chemical structure editor. And I have an electron app using it as a default molecule editor.

My App Dependencies: "ketcher-react": "2.4.1", "ketcher-standalone": "1.3.0"

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I would like to provide a feature to save ketcher settings data into my remote database for my users. But I could not get or set the settings data from or by Ketcher Handler, because there is no methods about it.

• Settings Data in UI

Describe the solution you'd like

• How to set settings Invoke ketcher.setConfigs(data) to initialize the settings data, just like ketcher.setMolecule(mol). Or, set default settings when rendering the Editor, like settings={defaultSettings}, same as buttons={hideKetcherBtns}.

  <Editor
  staticResourcesUrl={""}
  structServiceProvider={structServiceProvider}
  onInit={handleOnInit}
  buttons={hideKetcherBtns}
  settings={defaultSettings}
  />

• How to get settings Invoke ketcher.getConfigs() to get settings data, just like ketcher.getMolfile() or ketcher.getSmiles(). Or, callback an user level funciton, like onInit={handleOnInit} in above code block.

Additional context I have noticed that the settings data has been saved in Local Storage as ketcher-opts. So, is getting/setting the ketcher-opts a workaround about this feature request? Or, it is a official recommendation?

Thanks a lot!

Dear @zspishere ,

Thank you for interest to Ketcher. It is a good idea to use an additional abstraction to hide Ketcher settings so it will be implemented in scope release 2.5.

Best regards, Andrei
