About Reflux

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 quickly 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.

Example of usage

This example assumes your setting up a brand new profile.

/reflux create MyProfile

This will switch all current Acedb based addons to this profile and setup the emulation profile.

Now i configure a bunch of stuff and notice my unit frames don't 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 StuffDB

Now reflux will emulate a profile for Stuff. I finish up configuring my UI. I'm pretty happy with it. Now that I'm 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 unconfigured. 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 stuff? 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.

Other Commands

/reflux addons [profile] Switch addon set to what was saved in the 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 emulated 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] will scan your addons creating a new profile, based off of each addons current settings

Type /reflux to see a list of commands.

    becuase when you issue the create command it creates a new acedb profile with the name you gave, if you go into any of those acedb enabled addons, the profiles sections of their configs should have an option to switch what profile your using. 99% of the addons out there use 'default' as the default profile.

    Worst addons I ever used.

    when I type in /reflux create MyProfile the game reloaded and I LOST ALL MY ADDONS SETTINGS

    DO NOT USE THIS ADDONS UNLESS YOU ARE SO BORING and want to reconfig your addons again

  • #72

    Is there anyway to let's say block an addon? I don't want this to work with a few addons such as recount

  • #71

    Trying to setup a global ui, just trying to work a few things out. With the addons that don't have their own profile system, when reflux emulates them will it save all the specified settings? What i'm after is say with a UI addon that doesn't have profiles (Eg. nUI), i make changes than use snapshot and it applies every change i made, i found when using snapshot this didn't happen. Something didn't go right or will i have to go through the reset of all settings and recreating a profile like what was explained in the given example. Just thought i'd ask before doing that and finding i didn't do it right or something.

    Thanks in advance

    DONT USE THIS ADDON

    My old profile is deleted now. I worked hours for it! Theres no way to back up!

    Developer, please delete this addon from Curse! More DESTRUCTION than profit!

  • #75

    it will only delete a profile if you issed a delete command

  • #70

    So this addon should be deleted, because you didn't read the instructions?  If you wanted to save your CURRENT settings, you should have used /reflux snapshot [name], not /reflux create [name].  RTFM.  Don't blame the addon for your lack of reading.

    BE CAREFUL WITH THIS MOD. 

    It just deleted every single setting for every single mod I have installed. By the way, my current UI took me 18 hours to set up. Now I get to do it all over again.

    Can i use reflux to save my current UI without having to recofigure it onto a new profile? If so, how can i do it?

  • #65
    What about showing a list of profiles that I've built with Reflux?
  • #62
    I'm trying to get Reflux to emulate a profile for the addon Baud Manifest, but it just won't work.
    What I've done:
    - Set up Baud Manifest as I like it.
    - Looked in BaudManifest.toc to find the name of the saved variables file.
    - Typed "/reflux add BaudManifestData" in game.
    * Reflux prints: "BaudManifestData Added to emulation list."
    - I type /reflux save
    * Reflux responds with "No emulations saved."

    Any help will be greatly appreciated!

    You need to make the default "create profile" behavior to be "snapshot". Instead of porting my UI to a new character, I have lost my UI. /reflux switch Character - Server doesn't help.

    I _do not_ recommend this addon.
  • #61
    "This example assumes your setting up a brand new profile."

    Read the instructions next time?
  • #63
    Sadly, you are both right. It needs to be more intuitive, and he should have scrolled down to the very, very bottom of the list first.
  • #58
    So I have a problem. I have a few different profiles, saved with different names.

    But in some cases, when I edit one profile, the changes are applied to other profiles!
    Ex: I moved Healbot from the middle-left of the screen to the middle-bottom of my screen on my Hunter's profile, but wanted to leave it on the middle-left for my druid. But when I log on my druid, Healbot is now in the bottom, where I placed it in my Hunter UI. WTF?

    Am I doing something wrong, or is there something else I should do to make sure changes stick to only the profile I was working on? Having to move Healbot (and one or two other things - Lunar Sphere, GearScore, etc) every time I switch is really annoying. D:
