Full Changelog: v0.7.9...v0.7.10

@ralphocdol

Another small release that's primarily focused around custom-api widget improvements.

Changed

You no longer need to convert numbers to float before doing math operations with them. When adding two integers together, the result will be an integer. Adding two floats together or an integer and a float will result in a float.

Before:

{{ (add (.JSON.Int "foo" | toFloat) (.JSON.Int "bar" | toFloat)) | toInt }}

Now:

{{ add (.JSON.Int "foo") (.JSON.Int "bar") }}

(this is consistent for all math operations, not just addition)

New

`skip-json-validation` and `.JSONLines`

- type: custom-api
  url: https://api.example.com
  skip-json-validation: true

Some API's return newline separated JSON objects instead of a single JSON array. This is not valid JSON, so the custom-api widget will fail to parse it. You can now set skip-json-validation to true to skip the validation step and parse the response as a list of JSON objects within your template.

{"name": "Steve", "age": 30}
{"name": "Alex", "age": 25}
{"name": "John", "age": 35}

You can then access the JSON objects using .JSONLines:

{{ range .JSONLines }}
  {{ .String "name" }}
{{ end }}

New functions

`concat`

{{ concat "foo" "bar" "baz" }}

will return foobarbaz.

(thanks @ralphocdol)

`now`

Returns the current time as a time.Time object.

{{ now }}
{{ now.Hour }}:{{ now.Minute }}:{{ now.Second }}
{{ now.Unix }}

2025-03-29 17:20:18.4905224 +0000 GMT m=+376.954385401
17:20:18
1743268818

This can also be used to convert time to your current timezone:

{{ $parsedTime := .JSON.String "date_created" | parseTime "rfc3339" }}
{{ $created := $parsedTime.In now.Location }}
{{ $created.Hour }}:{{ $created.Minute }}:{{ $created.Second }}

(thanks @not-first & @ralphocdol)

`offsetNow`

Returns the current time offset by a given amount:

{{ offsetNow "1h" }}
{{ now }}
{{ offsetNow "-1h" }}

2025-03-29 18:44:04.2719241 +0000 GMT m=+4178.324981601
2025-03-29 17:44:04.2719241 +0000 GMT m=+578.324981601
2025-03-29 16:44:04.2719241 +0000 GMT m=-3021.675018399

This can be used to check if something happened within a certain time frame:

{{ $created := .JSON.String "date_created" | parseTime "rfc3339" }}
{{ if ($created.After (offsetNow "-1h")) }}
  Created less than 1 hour ago
{{ end }}

`Widget-Title-URL` header for extension widget

The extension widget can now return a Widget-Title-URL header to set the link of the widget's title if it has not already been set by the user.

(thanks @not-first)

Fixes

The markets widget will now properly display prices of markets where the price is less than 0.01 (thanks @nsdont)

@ralphocdol

The custom-api widget has received a lot of positive feedback since its introduction in v0.7.0. Many people have made and shared their own widgets over at the new community-widgets repository as well as the Discord server. This release includes many improvements based on feedback from the community that will make it even more capable and easier to use.

New

Insecure requests

You can now allow insecure requests (those to APIs behind a self-signed certificate) via a allow-insecure property:

- type: custom-api
  url: https://api.example.com
  allow-insecure: true

(thanks @ralphocdol)

Parameters

You can now specify query parameters via a parameters property:

- type: custom-api
  url: https://api.example.com
  parameters:
    foo: bar
    baz: qux

Note

Using the parameters property will override any query parameters specified in the URL.

(thanks @ralphocdol)

Request method and body

You can now specify the request method and body via the method, body-type and body properties:

- type: custom-api
  url: https://api.example.com
  method: POST
  body-type: json
  body:
    foo: bar
    baz: qux

If you set a body, the method will automatically be set to POST and the body-type will be set to json, so you don't have to specify them explicitly.

- type: custom-api
  url: https://api.example.com
  body-type: string
  body: |
    foo=bar&baz=qux

(thanks @not-first)

Subrequests

You can now make multiple requests in a single custom-api widget via a subrequests property:

- type: custom-api
  url: https://api.example.com
  subrequests:
    another-one:
      url: https://api.example.com/another-one
    and-another-one:
      url: https://api.example.com/and-another-one

Subrequests can take all of the same properties as the main request, such as: parameters, headers, method, body-type, body and allow-insecure.

To access the JSON of a subrequest, you can use .Subrequest "key":

<p>{{ (.Subrequest "another-one").JSON.String "foo" }}</p>

This can get cumbersome to write if you need to reference the subrequest in multiple places, so you can instead assign it to a variable:

{{ $anotherOne := .Subrequest "another-one" }}
<p>{{ $anotherOne.JSON.String "foo" }}</p>
<p>{{ $anotherOne.JSON.Int "bar" }}</p>

You can also access the response as you would on the main request:

{{ $andAnotherOne := .Subrequest "and-another-one" }}
<p>{{ $andAnotherOne.Response.StatusCode }}</p>

(thanks @ralphocdol)

New functions

`trimPrefix`

{"foo": "bazbar"}

<p>{{ .JSON.String "foo" | trimPrefix "baz" }}</p>

<p>bar</p>

`trimSuffix`

{"foo": "barbaz"}

<p>{{ .JSON.String "foo" | trimSuffix "baz" }}</p>

<p>bar</p>

`trimSpace`

{"foo": "  bar  "}

<p>{{ .JSON.String "foo" | trimSpace }}</p>

<p>bar</p>

`replaceAll`

{"foo": "barbazbar"}

<p>{{ .JSON.String "foo" | replaceAll "baz" "bar" }}</p>

<p>barbarbar</p>

`findMatch`

{"foo": "bar-123456-baz"}

<p>{{ .JSON.String "foo" | findMatch "\\d+" }}</p>

The pattern is a regular expression, although note that backslashes need to be escaped, so \d in a normal regular expression would be \\d here.

<p>123456</p>

`findSubmatch`

{"foo": "bar-unknown-value"}

<p>{{ .JSON.String "foo" | findSubmatch "bar-(.*)" }}</p>

The pattern is a regular expression, and only the first submatch is returned.

<p>unknown-value</p>

`parseTime`

{"foo": "2021-01-02T15:04:05Z"}

{{ $parsedTime := .JSON.String "foo" | parseTime "rfc3339" }}
<p>Year: {{ $parsedTime.Year }}</p>
<p>Month: {{ $parsedTime.Month }}</p>
<p>Day: {{ $parsedTime.Day }}</p>
<p>Hour: {{ $parsedTime.Hour }}</p>
<p>Minute: {{ $parsedTime.Minute }}</p>
<p>Second: {{ $parsedTime.Second }}</p>

Other accepted time formats are unix, rfc3339nano, datetime, dateonly or a custom format using Go's date formatting. The returned object is Go's time.Time.

<p>Year: 2021</p>
<p>Month: January</p>
<p>Day: 2</p>
<p>Hour: 15</p>
<p>Minute: 4</p>
<p>Second: 5</p>

`toRelativeTime`

{"foo": "2021-01-02T15:04:05Z"}

<p {{ .JSON.String "foo" | parseTime "rfc3339" | toRelativeTime }}></p>

Note

The return value of this function must be placed within a tag's attributes, not within its content.

<p data-dynamic-relative-time="1609602245"></p>

This will automatically be converted to 1d, 2h, etc. on the client side.

`parseRelativeTime`

This is just a shorthand for parsing time and converting it to relative time. Instead of:

<p {{ .JSON.String "foo" | parseTime "rfc3339" | toRelativeTime }}></p>

You can simply do:

<p {{ .JSON.String "foo" | parseRelativeTime "rfc3339" }}></p>

`sortByString`, `sortByInt`, `sortByFloat`, `sortByTime`

{"students": [
  {"name": "Bob", "age": 20},
  {"name": "Alice", "age": 30},
  {"name": "Charlie", "age": 10}
]}

{{ range .JSON.Array "students" | sortByString "name" "asc" }}
  <p>{{ .String "name" }}</p>
{{ end }}

<p>Alice</p>
<p>Bob</p>
<p>Charlie</p>

{{ range .JSON.Array "students" | sortByInt "age" "desc" }}
  <p>{{ .Int "age" }}</p>
{{ end }}

<p>30</p>
<p>20</p>
<p>10</p>

{"students": [
  {"name": "Bob", "gpa": 3.5},
  {"name": "Alice", "gpa": 4.0},
  {"name": "Charlie", "gpa": 2.0}
]}

{{ range .JSON.Array "students" | sortByFloat "gpa" "asc" }}
  <p>{{ .Float "gpa" }}</p>
{{ end }}

<p>2</p>
<p>3.5</p>
<p>4</p>

{"students": [
  {"name": "Bob", "dob": "2000-01-01"},
  {"name": "Alice", "dob": "1990-01-01"},
  {"name": "Charlie", "dob": "2010-01-01"}
]}

{{ range .JSON.Array "students" | sortByTime "dob" "dateonly" "asc"  }}
  <p>{{ .String "name" }}</p>
{{ end }}

Here, dateonly is the same format that you would use with parseTime.

<p>Alice</p>
<p>Bob</p>
<p>Charlie</p>
