Shouldn’t this be

                    text: '=(props.dimmeritem) ? items[props.dimmeritem].label : " Set Dimmer"'

Hi

Looks like your props does not contain a name:

props:
  parameters:
    - context: item
      description: An item to control
      label: Island
      required: false
      type: TEXT
timestamp: Sep 29, 2021, 2:45:41 PM

So props.dimmeritem is not defined?

Should be:

props:
  parameters:
    - context: item
      description: An item to control
      label: Island
      name: dimmeritem
      required: false
      type: TEXT
timestamp: Sep 29, 2021, 2:45:41 PM

No, it then should show the alternative text.
Like I wrotw before,

Will only return the configuration parameter for the widget, whereas

will return the given label for that item.

The entire name has disappeared now :smiley: despite my items having labels

Yes, it does that on mine - however the toggle will also have no item defined as the props section does not have a props.dimmeritem configured.

Ups, sorry, I was wrong about the label, see here :

Indeed, good catch

and here is a workaround :

uid: Dimmer
tags: []
props:
  parameters:
    - context: item
      description: An item to control
      label: Dimmer Item

                - component: oh-repeater
                  config:
                    for: dimmeritem
                    sourceType: itemsWithTags
                    itemTags: Light
                    filter: loop.dimmeritem.name.includes(props.dimmeritem)
                  slots:

                            top: 0.5em

Beautiful. It works :slight_smile: Thank you Hans!

Looking at the workaround (as I was caught by same issue) I have serious concerns. I believe it will work cause repeater is only one place in current UI which work with actual item instance and not its state.
To the point. If you have a small component which is used in several places on the same dashboard then each oh-repeater instance embedded required by workaround will submit its own request to the REST. Another point - it loads all items (potentially several dozen) to get name of just one. I guess there should be a way for repeater to pass additional filter for server to limit results.

Going to test my deployments now. :wink:

No, please note that in my example the dimmerItem is defined in props and repeater is just using that item ( for: dimmerItem).
It is only working that way !!!
If you need more than one item, you can assign more than one item to dimmerItem using the multiple option.

coming from here and after having some trouble with loading times with oh-repeater / sourceType: tags i’d like to add that this solution may not be ideal if you have a lot of items.
as i understand the page checks all items for tags everytime a page with the widget loads. for me the oh-repeater widgets aren’t loading fast enough. still struggling with the access to item.label outside of oh-repeater…

No, it should only check the item defined in props for tags.
Please post your code, so we can check…

and here you can see the loading behaviour of a page with this widget (tab RS_TagFilter) and the loading behaviour of a page with the same widget but with sourceType: array where i manually have to configure every single item and label (tab RS_Arr):
TagFilter
you can see that in RS_TagFilter the widget takes a little bit of time to load, in RS_Arr the loading isn’t noticable.

i have also made the test with your code (adjusted only the Tag) and also here the loading es noticable:
TestLabel

Ok, I can see your misunderstanding.
If you check my example, there is an item defined in the props:

Only this item is used in my repeater example:

So in fact, the repeater will only check this one item for the tags.

in my first example i use “item” instead on “dimmeritem” and it’s used in oh-repeater:

filter: loop.listItem.name.includes(props.item)

and in the second example i used exactly your code, adapted the “tag” and set one of my dimmer lights as prop.

You see the difference ?
loop and props need to be identical.

i really don’t understand why they must be the same and it doesn’t really change anything:

loading behaviour / speed is unchanged.

Further to this, is there a way to override the name by placing it into the actual page item, rather than into the Widget configuration?

Ie label might be Island Light, but I’d rather just Island because its smaller and formats better on Phones.
