After having completed a large portion of content fields for a new WDX plugin, I wanted to make the field selection a little easier for the user. My plugin is able to read any number of instances of "TheThing", all of which provide the same pieces of information. I'll give an example to make it clear: A file contains "TheThing" twice, and each instance of "TheThing" can deliver 10 information fields. These information fields are of different types, some are bool, some are date/time, some are (Unicode) strings.
I'm not sure if and how this can be achieved with the TC WDX interface. Unfortunately, its documentation is lacking when it comes to examples...
Here's what I have in mind:
Code: Select all
mypluginname > regular_field1
| regular_field2
| regular_field3
| subfield1 > FromTheThing1
| FromTheThing2
| FromTheThingX
| subfield2 > FromTheThing1
| FromTheThing2
| FromTheThingX
I hope my post is not too confusing, and I also hope it's clear what I want to achieve. If not, or if there's need for code examples, please don't hesitate to ask.
