Reflux is a small lightweight profile manager. With the coming of dual specs, and people building ui compilations. I built this little manager. Its goal it to allow you to easily switch all your addon profiles in one fair swoop. For Addons that don't support profiles it emulates a profile. All emulations are done by the user and none come pre configured out of the box. The user chooses if he/she wishes to emulate a profile for any addon. Emulation is not needed for any addon that uses Ace2/3DB as profiles are built in.
As ALWAYS be sure to BACKUP your WTF folder before using.
Example of usage
This example assumes your setting up a brand new profile.
/reflux create MyProfile
This will switch all current ace db based addons to this profile and setup the emulation profile.
Now i configure a bunch of stuff and notice my unit frames dont have support for profiles... Well i can fix that! First i need to check the .toc for my unit frames in this case StufUnitFrames. I find the #SavedVariables: StufDB line in the toc indication that is where it saves its configuration information. So now in game I simply add that saved variable to reflux
/reflux add StufDB
Now reflux will emulate a profile for Stuf. I finish up configuring my ui. Im pretty happy with it. Now that im done I need to save the emulated profile
/reflux save
Now my emulated profile has been saved. Lets do a quick reload to ensure our data is saved to disk.
We are done! now my ui is setup with my new profile. Lets go create another profile for my alt.
/reflux create MyAltProfile
my screen is now back to initial state all un configured. My alt is a different class so this isn't a big deal. (Future enhancement will be to copy a profile set so you can create a base config then tweak). Now i do more work...
What about stuf? Do i need to add it again? Nope its already been emulated so no need to add it again.
Now I save my new profile
/reflux save
Now I switch my main back to its original profile.
/reflux switch MyProfile
bingo my ui is now all set back up.
I log into my alt and type
/reflux switch MyAltProfile
and now my alts ui is all setup.
If you want to clear out all your reflux data /reflux cleardb and bingo its all gone. You ace profiles are still there, but the emulated profiles will be cleared.
Type /reflux to see a list of commands.
New Commands
/reflux addons [profile]
Switch addon set to what was saved int he profile. Due to technical reason you need to switch afterwards
/reflux save now optionally takes an 'addons' flag to store addon state
so /reflux save addons will save current addon list in the emualted profile.
/reflux copy [target profile]
will attempt to copy the target profile into your current profile. this will reload the ui when complete.
/reflux delete [profile]
will delete a profile. Please note you can NOT delete the current active profile.
/reflux snapshot [profile] (EXPERIMENTAL)
will create a new profile and scan each addon copying thier current profiles to the new one.

Doing "/reflux switch" by itself creates a new profile with the empty string ("") for a name, which is kind of bad since it cannot be deleted by Reflux, nor by any other addon I tried (including Dominos and the standard Ace3 profile manager many addons have).

Bah, I screwed up. I entered /reflux create default and now it seems like it reset my saved variables. Can I get my old settings back? >_<

resetting
I seem to have an issue when I add certain saved variables to reflux for emulation. I tested it with chinchilla since its one of the addons that takes the least amount of work to configure. Before I added its database (ChinchillaDB) to reflux for emulation I had several profiles I had created for various layouts. Which of course could be changed as needed. When I added it to reflux for emulation and made a new profile (DK1 in this case) it wiped out all the profiles I had created before emulation was added. Roughly 8 profiles were removed and now only 'default' is in the file. I have back ups of my WTF folder so it wasnt a loss of any kind.
My hope was that it would just add a new profile much like it does for addons like bartender4 where i can just copy existing ones to the reflux created one so I would be able to save myself piles of work redoing quite a few of my addons to work with reflux. It also wipes the savedvariables for addons like cooldowntimers that dont really have a profile but have it set up per character and globally (which i assume it uses the server based variables if one is not created for an individual character) which it resets for both sets of variables. If there is a way to avoid it resetting the variables in general that would be great. If nothing else just being able to copy what profiles already exists (like bt4) would be super. My main desire for use of reflux is to be able to have my current preferred layouts of which there are about 5 set up for various classes. Then make secondary sets that are optimized for raids and so on that I can change quickly. I'm not sure if I'm missing something in the process that's causing this (aka user error) or if its default behavior and unavoidable. I've been looking for something like this for a while and im extremely excited to see it as a reality. Much appreciation for your work. =)

its a case by case basis on wether they use Ace for profiles.
i would say 'Default' should be switched immediatly since thats a pretty common on at install time. other would be like Class: Warrior etc .. that are created by default |

Are there "secure" profiles, i.e. "default" that we should NOT use? And how likely would it be to get a list of addons that NEED an emulated profile? Perhaps on Google docs or some such group site, that users could add to? I can go through and figure out which ones don't have profiles, but sometimes a ltitle thing goes through your fingers (like forgetting to emulate my AnnounceIt profile and losing all my nifty announces).
This is a great addon, keep up the good work! |

addons
hum...i use a lot of them, anyway the worst to deal with without being able to handle them are ag_unitframes and chocolatebar (doesn't even show up). complete list is:
PHP Code:
edit: tried it. dominos now works and so most of addons, but simple buff bars and chocolate surely don't, slash commands don't work for any addons but reflux. i'll further try to see if others cause trouble.

Alright I am working on a UI right now and I am creating Info Panels similiar to nUI, what I am wondeirng is, is it possible to only modify a portion of the UI, for example the UF, I could set it up to change UF when I click on a Texture implemented through KgPanels, (also what would the script to use n KgPanels be to have it change the Reflux Profile when Clicked?) Hoping for Fast replys
