Is there a way to easily grab the current scope in scripting? We have a lot of code that will either execute through normal python, tag event scripts, script console, or perspective scripts. And so we need to identify what scope we are in sometimes to verify how we want to handle a task. I know th…

[image] Getting the context in which a function is running? Ignition Related to my question the other day - Using importlib to run any function on the gateway? Now with forms, I like to run a validation on the client side so that the window doesn’t close and t…

Perfect! I guess I didnt search hard enough before I asked lol

My preferred option is probably this one try: from com.inductiveautomation.ignition.common.model import ApplicationScope scope = ApplicationScope.getGlobalScope() if (ApplicationScope.isClient(scope)): print("Client Scope") if (ApplicationScope.isDesigner(scope)): prin…

We’ve got this in a script called env from com.inductiveautomation.ignition.common.model import ApplicationScope scope = ApplicationScope.getGlobalScope() def isDesigner(): return ApplicationScope.isDesigner(scope) def isGateway(): return ApplicationScope.isGateway(scope) def isPerspective(…

any suggestions on how to make isPerspective() return false when called from a session property? In designer and otherwise? Do I need to combine this method with SYSTEM_FLAGS? e.g. when modifying a session property in designer (with change script): def valueChanged(self, previousValue, currentVal…

Theoretically, something like this should work: from com.inductiveautomation.ignition.gateway import IgnitionGateway pageModel = IgnitionGateway.get().moduleManager.resolveClass("com.inductiveautomation.perspective.gateway.model.PageModel") if pageModel.PAGE.get() is not None: # in a page Subje…

thank you, I'll give it a shot. for the moment I'm just using it for context-aware debugging (printing where possible/desired, logging where not). comments/suggestions welcome. FWIW, I'm fully aware logging alone is the preferred method :slight_smile:

it appears isPresent() is java-specific? hasattr(pageModel, 'PAGE') returns True for me as well :confused:

PageModel is the class. The PAGE attribute will always be present because it's a ThreadLocal field: PageModel declaration: package: com.inductiveautomation.perspective.gateway.model, class: PageModel I steered you wrong with isPresent() because it's availabl…
