Subject: [PATCH common/manager/proxmox-widget-toolkit/storage v2 00/17] GUI Support for Custom Storage Plugins
Date: Fri, 17 Jul 2026 17:49:07 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260717154943.696411-1-m.carrara@proxmox.com> (raw)
GUI Support for Custom Storage Plugins - v2
===========================================
Notable Changes Since v1
------------------------
- Fix the 'sensitive' keyword being stringified to `"1"` when enabled,
instead of being an integer.
(Thanks @Jakob!)
- Fix a non-breaking hyphen sneaking in, most likely caused by me
copying an already existing string from the UI or some other place.
(Thanks @Jakob!)
- Implement *experimental* support for `patternProperties` in order to
support the custom schema keywords `x-advanced` and `x-hidden`, which
helps to avoid hard-coding which fields are in the "Advanced" section
and which ones are hidden in the UI, respectively.
Please note that the commits implementing this are explicitly marked
as RFC and can be dropped if `patternProperties` is undesired.
I figured that this was a decent use case for `patternProperties`, but
I'm on the fence whether this is something that we actually want.
Feedback is very welcome in that regard.
Note that the 'sensitive' keyword that's added to the returned plugin
schema is kept as is at the moment -- I'm a bit on the fence here too
whether it should be an 'x-' keyword or whether we should actually
include it in the default schema for JSON schemas overall, as I can
see it being useful in other places in the future too, e.g. the ACME
plugin code (for hiding API keys etc.).
Also, given that the two fixes above are rather trivial and no
functionality has been changed, I suggest keeping Jakob's trailer(s)
from v1 in, should this series get applied.
