Displaying overridden configuration

It is useful to display the currently applied overridden configuration in your app. We suggest you display this on your app's home screen.

The provided APLConfigurationLabel (Swift, Objective-C), APLConfigurationLabel (Dart) or nz.co.electricbolt.appfiguratelibrary.ConfigurationLabel (Kotlin or Java) displays overridden configuration drawn in a vertical orientation attached to the left hand side of the screen as follows:

You can add the APLConfigurationLabel to your view controller in a viewDidLoad like this:

override func viewDidLoad() {
    let label = APLConfigurationLabel(frame: .zero)
    label.center = CGPoint(x: 7, y: self.navigationController!.view.bounds.size.height / 2)
    self.navigationController!.view.addSubview(label)
}

You can add the APLConfigurationLabel to your view controller in a viewDidLoad like this:

- (void) viewDidLoad {
    APLConfigurationLabel* label = [[APLConfigurationLabel alloc] initWithFrame: CGRectZero];
    label.center = CGPointMake(7, self.navigationController.view.bounds.size.height / 2);
    [self.navigationController.view addSubview: label];
}

Embed your original layout inside a FrameLayout. The ConfigurationLabel must come after the original layout for it to appear on top.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

    <original-layout-here/>

    <nz.co.electricbolt.appfiguratelibrary.ConfigurationLabel
        android:id="@+id/configuration_label"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"/>

</FrameLayout>

Make the body of your page a APLConfiguationLabel, and set it's child to the original body:

...
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    var media = MediaQuery.of(context);
    var padding = media.padding.left == 0.0 ? 8.0 : media.padding.left;

    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(
        title: Text('Example'),
      ),
      body: APLConfigurationLabel(child:
        ListView(
...

Creating your own label

If APLConfigurationLabel is not sufficient for your needs, you can create your own label as follows:

Swift APLAddConfigurationUpdatedListener example

extension MyLogonController: APLConfigurationUpdated {

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        APLAddConfigurationUpdatedListener(self)
    }

    func configurationUpdated(_ notification: Notification?) {
        label.text = APLConfiguration.shared().modifications
    }
...

Objective-C APLAddConfigurationUpdatedListener example

@interface MyLogonController () <APLConfigurationUpdated>
@end

@implementation MyLogonController

- (void) viewDidLoad {
    APLAddConfigurationUpdatedListener(self);
}

- (void) configurationUpdated: (NSNotification*) notification {
    label.text = [[APLConfiguration sharedConfiguration] modifications];
}
...

Kotlin addConfigurationUpdatedListener example

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
    Appfigurate.addConfigurationUpdatedListener { action: String? ->
        label.text = Configuration.sharedConfiguration().modifications()
    }
...

Java addConfigurationUpdatedListener example

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    Appfigurate.addConfigurationUpdatedListener((String action) -> {
        label.text = Configuration.sharedConfiguration().modifications();
    });
...

Dart APLAddConfigurationUpdatedListener example

class _MyLabelState extends State<MyLabel> {

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();
    APLAddConfigurationUpdatedListener(configurationUpdated);
  }

  @override
  void dispose() {
    APLRemoveConfigurationUpdatedListener(configurationUpdated);
    super.dispose();
  }

  void configurationUpdated(String? action) {
    setState(() {});
  }
  
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Text('${APLNativeConfiguration.sharedConfiguration().modifications()}');
  }
...
