DQMH Post Scripting

[pstestek]

Greetings,

With the more later release of DQMH a set of scripting tools have been released to be utilized after completion of existing DQMH script operations. This is a great addition, but I'm not sure how to utilize it.

For example, if I create a new DQMH Event with the standard Tools > DQMH Consortium >DQMH > Create New Event, there are changes that I have to make to the generated code each time this tool runs to work correctly with my projects. How do I go about using the post scripting tools to do this? Does anyone have an example of this?

Thank you for your help.

The Post Scripting Plugins feature is documented here:

Scripting Plugins :: DQMH Consortium Docs

I know that Panther Dashboard installs some plugins, you can take a look at its source code for examples here.

I've taken a look at the documentation, but it wasn't really clicking with me on how that helps me update my code.

I haven't heard of Panther Dashboard so I'll take a look at that as well. Thank you

Hi @pstestek, Panther Dashboard adds some scripting plugins to refresh the tool after executing some of the DQMH Scripting tasks. If you want to see another example, take a  look at this:

https://www.vipm.io/package/pantherlab_lib_scripting_plugins_for_dqmh/

This VIPM package installs some VIS under LabVIEW Data. There will be a folder for each DQMH Task. When, for example add an event, a vi under the Add new DQMH Event folder will be executed to do some post scripting, you can take those as isolated examples.
