# Webui Examples
**Tested and developed on deluge-svn/Deluge 1.1**
*updated with newer api for r.3857*
## Adding a page to the webui
### Intro
Webui templates are dumb, they get passed data from python, and can't call uiclient api's directly.
They are there to format the data, not to execute logic.
Template language: http://webpy.org/templetor
## Flow of the data
*Disclaimer, MVC is a highly abused therm, and i'm abusing it here.*
```
[core-plugin],deluged->uiclient->webui,[webui-plugin] -> data passed as arguments to template.
('Model' ) ('controller' ) ('view')
```
## Example : a df page in webui
This example assumes you have deluge svn checked out to "~/src/deluge"
And that your plugin-development-directory is "~/prj/deluge/plugins"
This plugin will add a page to deluge that display the output of "df -h" to a page in the webui.
### Create a new plugin
```
cd ~/prj/deluge/plugins
python ~/src/deluge/deluge/scripts/create_plugin.py --name Df --basepath . --author-name "My Name" --author-email "deluge@example.com"
```
* Restart deluge(d) and enable the plugin in the gtk-ui.
### Add a core method.
Add this method to ~/prj/deluge/plugins/Df/df/core.py
```python
def export_get_df(self):
"returns the result of 'df -h' as a string"
import commands
return commands.getoutput('df -h')
```
### Test the new core-plugin method.
create ~/prj/deluge/plugins/df/Df/test.py ; Contents:
```python
from deluge.ui.client import sclient
sclient.set_core_uri()
print sclient.df_get_df() #export method is prefixed by plugin-name.
```
Terminal:
```
cd ~/prj/deluge/plugins/Df/df
killall deluged & deluged && python test.py
```
Fix any errors until the test outputs the desired result.
### Add the template
~/prj/deluge/plugins/Df/df/templates/df.html
```
$def with (df_result)
<h1>df -h</h1>
<pre>
$df_result
</pre>
```
### Webui plugin
Edit ~/prj/deluge/plugins/Df/df/webui.py and replace the df_page and WebUI classes
Some Magic : api.render.<plugin-name>.<template-name>() is automagiclly mapped to templates/<template-name>.html (see http://webpy.org/ for templetor, the template language)
```python
class df_page():
#@api.deco.deluge_page #requires login, see page_decorators.py for more decorators,
@api.deco.deluge_page_noauth #<-- this is easier for testing until i implement persistent sessions.
def GET(self, args):
df_result = sclient.df_get_df()
return api.render.df.df(df_result) #push data to templates/df.html
class WebUI(WebUIPluginBase):
#map url's to classes: [(url,class), ..]
urls = [('/df', df_page)] #<--modified url mapping.
def enable(self):
api.config_page_manager.register('plugins', 'df' ,ConfigForm)
def disable(self):
api.config_page_manager.deregister('df')
```
* Remove template/default.html , it's not used in api.render.df anymore.
### Test webui page
```
killall deluge & deluge -u web &
```
Read the output to the console, there could be some errors there.
visit http://localhost:8112/df
Execute test until there are no more errors, and the page displays the desired result.
### Add to top menu
We added a page, but the user can't navigate to it, let's fix that :
Add 2 lines for register/deregister of the menu-items.
```python
def enable(self):
api.config_page_manager.register('plugins', 'df' ,ConfigForm)
api.menu_manager.register_admin_page("df", _("Disk usage"), "/df") #<--top menu
def disable(self):
api.config_page_manager.deregister('df')
api.menu_manager.deregister_admin_page("df") #<--top menu
```
### Pretty template
We're allmost ready, but the current template doesn't look right.
Adding a header/footer and menu to the template:
```
$def with (df_result)
$:render.header(_("Disk usage"), 'df')
$:render.admin_toolbar('df')
<div class="panel">
<h2>Disk usage (df -h)</h2>
<pre>
$df_result
</pre>'
</div>
$:render.footer()
```
