Kindling - a collection of tools to help with Ignition

…ah, ok. yeah that would do it.

Unable to export the changed files from the translation bundle. Has anyone else faced this issue while working with translation bundles?version 1.4.0

What happens/can you provide any more details?
Export is a brand new feature that's basically only been tested on my laptop, but should work fine, it's not particularly complex code.

I made some changes and pasted the translation bundle into Kindle in CSV format because the Excel format wasn't working. Then I tried using the 'Export ZIP' option, but it didn’t do anything.

After you click 'Export Zip', nothing happens? You don't even get the file picker?

Yes, I cannot see the file picker. Only the Export Zip icon is highlighted with a blue outline.

Interesting. Windows? I'll try to get it replicated.

yes,it’s windows

I am trying to edit the DEMOTIMEREMAINING for module debugging from Kindling, but I get an error message that the database is readonly. Am I forced to open the IDB file in another program?

sqlite databases can't be written to from multiple processes. You'll have to stop the Ignition Gateway before you can write to it, from any other software.

This is the error I am getting even when the Ignition service is stopped and Kindling is opened with Admin privileges:

Hmm, looks like Kindling might be opening it in read only mode. Don't know if that's configurable or not.

The ‘db’ folder that contains the .idb file is set to read-only and won’t allow me to enable writing. Could that be the issue?

Kindling is strictly read-only for all IDB connections, there's no support for writing data back.

Understood. I figured out how to write a new time to the config.idb, but when it expires the gateway atuomatically resets it to 2 hours. Is there another setting that controls what the timer resets to? I would like to reset the timer to 120 seconds automatically.

No, because if there were such a setting somebody could change it to int/long max and have an effectively infinite trial.

Ah. I thought there might be some other backend code that prevented >2 hours.

Yes, it’s called buying a license :laughing:

Values greater than 2 hours are ignored, but also we basically only check the trial time written into the IDB when the system starts up.

Write a shell script that shuts down the gateway, runs the sqlite cli to reset the trial timer, then starts the gateway back up?

…wait, isn’t that explicitly forbidden by the eula?
