History

0.1.14

Updated

• Improved Guide Definition Registration Responses
  • Errors associated with registration will be available in the responses
• Documentation for most Guide types and properties

Added

• Aliases for guide.models modules so they are accessible on top level import
• GuideStepDefinitionBackgroundTask that runs process() function in the background allowing users to navigate away from the page.
  • Will work in conjunction with LivelyUI APIs so that user can be given live feedback on the progress of the process method.
• More step control options:
  • uiState now has continueToNextStep and continueToNextStepWhenAvailable available
  • we can now set uiState on process response without requiring status property to be set
    • Example:

      # Instead of:
      return SwitchGuideStepApiResponse(
          status=SwitchGuideStepStatus(
              uiState=SwitchGuideStepStatusUiState(
                  returnToSummary=True
              )
          )
      )
      
      # We can set uiState as:
      return SwitchGuideStepApiResponse(
          uiState=SwitchGuideStepStatusUiState(
              returnToSummary=True
          )
      )
