Enhance ThingActions UI support #4392

Closed lolodomo closed 1 month ago

lolodomo commented 1 month ago

Fixes #1745

Return config description parameters for the ActionInputs of ThingActions for the REST GET /action/{thingUID} and REST GET /module-types endpoints. The config description parameters are only provided if all input parameters have a type that can be mapped to a config description parameter (String, boolean, Boolean, byte, Byte, short, Short, int, Integer, long, Long, float, Float, double, Double, Number, DecimalType, QuantityType<?>, LocalDateTime, LocalDate, LocalTime, ZonedDateTime, Date, Instant and Duration).

Enhance the REST POST /actions/{thingUID}/{actionUid} endpoint (allows invoking Thing actions via REST) and the AnnotationActionHandler (allows invoking Thing actions from UI-rules) in order to be more flexible regarding the type of each provided argument value and to map the value to the expected data type. Number and string values will be accepted as inputs and the expected data type will be created from this value.

This will be used by the UI's Thing page and rule editor to allow invoking Thing actions through the UI or adding them to UI-bases rules.

The GET API now returns:

@lolodomo The /rest/module-types endpoint also needs to provide these config descriptions for Thing action modules, so Thing actions can be invoked from rules.

lolodomo commented 1 month ago

I don't understand, Thing actions can already be invoked from rules. ???

florian-h05 commented 1 month ago

After reading #1745 completely, yes they could in theory - the problem is however the same we attempt to fix with this PR: The Thing action module types only contain the inputs like the /actions endpoint, which makes it impossible for the UI to allow the user to provide the required inputs.

florian-h05 commented 1 month ago

@lolodomo Please do not force push from now on - I will start working on your PR as well and create a PR to your PR branch afterwards.

florian-h05 commented 1 month ago

@lolodomo I have created https://github.com/lolodomo/openhab-core/pull/3, which adds support for invoking Thing actions through UI-based rules. Please merge it with rebase merge to keep commit history. If you want me to do so I can also take over the remaining work on this topic.

florian-h05 commented 1 month ago

Thanks for integrating my changes ... now we have to update the PR description:

Enhance ThingActions UI support

Fixes #1745.

Return config description parameters for the ActionInputs of ThingActions for the REST GET /action/{thingUID} and REST GET /module-types endpoints. The config description parameters are only provided if all input parameters have a type that can be mapped to a config description parameter.

Enhance the REST POST /actions/{thingUID}/{actionUid} endpoint (allows invoking Thing actions via REST) and the AnnotationActionHandler (allows invoking Thing actions from UI-rules) in order to be more flexible regarding the type of each provided argument value and to map the value to the expected data type.

This will be used by the UI's Thing page and rule editor to allow invoking Thing actions through the UI or adding them to UI-bases rules.

lolodomo commented 1 month ago

When PR is ready for review, I will squash everything, provide a proper description and mention you as co-author.

lolodomo commented 1 month ago

@florian-h05 : I believe it is almost ready now. Can you please have a look to my last commits before I squash everything and update the 2 first messages ?

lolodomo commented 1 month ago

I am tempted to change the expected format for "datetime" context. Documentation mentions "YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm". I would prefer "YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss". https://www.openhab.org/docs/developer/addons/config-xml.html#supported-context As the "datetime"context is not yet used, this would not be a problem. WDYT ?

florian-h05 commented 1 month ago

Can you please have a look to my last commits before I squash everything and update the 2 first messages ?

I will do.

I am tempted to change the expected format for "datetime" context.

Agreed, having seconds is better than not having seconds - and as it is not yet used, there should be no problems.

lolodomo commented 1 month ago

Done.

I also updated my second message with a full example when using GET and POST API.

lolodomo commented 1 month ago

Now ready for an "official" review.

lolodomo commented 1 month ago

@openhab/core-maintainers : a review would be really appreciated. I assume @florian-h05 is waiting for this merge before starting working on the UI part.

lolodomo commented 1 month ago

@J-N-K : all your comments are now considered. I am happy with the helper classes being now OSGi components.

J-N-K commented 1 month ago

Thanks again for your work on this. This is a great step forward.

lolodomo commented 1 month ago

Especially the ActionsInputHelper looks quite complex and easy to break. Could you add some tests for that?

Yes, that is doable.

lolodomo commented 1 month ago

@J-N-K : I added unit tests but I will continue later to cover more cases.

lolodomo commented 1 month ago

@J-N-K : unit tests are now fully defined for class ActionInputHelper.

lolodomo commented 1 month ago

@florian-h05 : I hope you are in the starting blocks ;)
