Unleash Your Creativity
with Custom Scripts
Say goodbye to one-size-fits-all solutions!
Galaxy Modeler now lets you define templates for custom output and scripts.
The possibilities are endless!
Version 8.5
Customizations & Custom Properties
Custom Properties
You can easily add your own properties to Galaxy Modeler projects, giving you the freedom to customize them as you wish. These properties can be displayed on the diagram and in the user interface, making it convenient for you to modify their values in the side panel. Additionally, you can smoothly integrate them into HTML reports and utilize them to create your own scripts or other outputs.
Customizations
Galaxy Modeler’s Customizations feature includes custom properties definitions, which can be used to enhance the tool’s functionality. You have the freedom to choose specific UI elements for editing values and more.
Rapid Development
Templates allow you to customize your outputs. This might involve creating snippets of code for the back-end, designing forms for the front-end, or generating HTML reports that feature a list of items that could include sensitive or confidential data, among other things.
Version 8
New Features
Script and Templates
All template-based output possibilities are available on the Script form. Here you can find predefined templates, such as GraphQL schema definition script, It also shows the possibility of exporting metadata to a CSV file etc.
Templates Toolbar
On the Script and Templates tab you will find a toolbar with a diagram selection, a template selection and also the following buttons:
- Syntax highlighting – especially useful for javascript or json code
- Open folder with templates
- Reload templates – if you add a custom template
- Documentation – link to documentation
Collapsible Sections and Easy Copying
In terms of a user-friendly interface, you now have the option to collapse or expand the generated script for individual objects and to copy the script for selected object into the clipboard easily.
Modal Forms & Custom Template Based Scripts
The generated script for the selected object can be viewed also on the object Detail modal form. Navigate to the Script tab where you will find everything you need, including:
- Generation settings
- Before and after scripts
- Custom code
- Script and Templates with custom template based output.
The combination of all options and possibilities provides exceptional flexibility!
Side Panel & Template Based Output
In your templates you can write a code that will be generated only for the currently selected object. Thus, it is not necessary to generate the output for the whole project and then search for the file with the generated code. Just select a type, input, interface or other object in the diagram and view your own template based script in the sidebar.
Templates Structure
When you open the templates folder, you will see a simple structure. To create a custom template, just create one simple json file describing the template and one hbs file containing the template written in Handlebars. Writing templates is easy and based on a well-known templating system. There is no need to reinvent the wheel!
Comfortable Development
In rare cases, you may make a mistake when creating a template. In this case, the Handlebars templating system will display an error instead of the generated content. This way you can immediately see where to look and there is no need to restart Galaxy Modeler at all.
Our goal is to make your work comfortable and pleasant even if some modification of the templates is required.
