resgisterAction doesn't work

[bbbastien]

Steps to reproduce

1. Create an app
2. Develop an app to add new menu context in Files
3. Cannot add a new link action

Expected behaviour

My customized application should add a new menu link action on Files.

Actual behaviour

Nothing happens, no error message

Server configuration

Operating system:
Windows 10
Web server:
Nginx
Database:
MySQL
PHP version:
7.2
Nextcloud version: (see Nextcloud admin page)
18
Updated from an older Nextcloud/ownCloud or fresh install:

Client configuration

Browser:
Brave Browser
Operating system:
Windows 10

This is my Code :

(function (OCA) {
	"use strict";

	OCA.Files = OCA.Files || {};

	OCA.Files.QrCodePlugin = {
		name: 'qrCode',
		_extendFileActions: function (fileActions) {
			fileActions.registerAction({
				name: 'qrCode',
				displayName: t('mynote', 'qrCode'),
				mime: 'all',
				iconClass: 'icon-public',
				actionHandler: function () {}
			});
		},
		attach: function (fileList) {
			this._extendFileActions(fileList.fileActions);
		}
	}


}) (OCA);

OC.Plugins.register('OCA.Files.FileList', OCA.Files.QrCodePlugin);

Can you tell me where I can debug my registerAction or tell me what is missing ?

I think you have to register the script (with the above code) to Nextcloud. Like the files_lock app. App subscribes to OCA\Files::loadAdditionalScripts and if this event is emitted include the file with the script.

https://github.com/nextcloud/files_lock/blob/36e2d470cf7d98d41e63fdc83c8bc372f47aa16a/lib/AppInfo/Application.php#L97-L103

I did it. But that changes nothing ><

Is your app code available somewhere? I would try to debug this step by step.

1. Is my listener to OCA\Files::loadAdditionalScripts working? Probably something like \OC::$server->getLogger()->debug('Yey! Listener is working'); in your listener callback.

2. Is my script loaded by the browser? (your browser will tell you probably some alerts)

I already found the solution, I added :

permissions: OC.PERMISSION_UPDATE,
type: OCA.Files.FileActions.TYPE_DROPDOWN,

Okay with you to close this issue then?

Yes
