Hi is it possible to modify the loader to add custom column like how its happening in the site sync
but in site sync its modifying the core package, is it possible to add custom column from a plugin itself?
Currently there is no such plugin feature to extend that UI. I think we would welcome a PR that adds a plugin interface to the loader UI.
- An issue with production use cases/examples would be great
- PR is welcome on core to make it support plugins to extend the interface.
- Bonus points for sharing the example code on how you are also ending up extending it on your end.
Tagging @iLLiCiT since he’s king of the UI most of the time and can maybe say ‘hell no’ or give pointers if needed.
This is what i am exactly trying to do, we have multiple sites and so recreated the site sync plugin to add 3 sites, so like how we have active site i would like to add the custom site names to the ui , but i dont want to modify the core repo, as it will be cumbersome to keep up with ayon’s update,
If you can point me in the right direction i can try to modify the code to use plugins to extend the interface, and i can do a PR.
I’m afraid you can’t. Right now the UI changes in loader are made specifically for site sync addon, which might be broken sometimes because ayon-core has to know how to use sitesync addon. We don’t have plans to add option to change available columns, as this change does affect backend and frontend part of the UI.
There are plans to redesign loader tool to totally different UX experience, but not to add custom data from addons, at least not now.
Ah ok thanks for letting me know.
