ui-switch does not update if a css class is injected with msg.class about node-red-dashboard HOT 4 CLOSED

Okay, so here you're injecting a timestamp, which is registered as an "invalid payload value", and reported as a warning in the debug console when running your flow.

If I remove the msg.payload it does run correctly and update live as expected.

Our check against the class value happens before the custom onInput handler that ui-switch has, and so the server-side store is updated, even though the msg never actually makes it to the client-side.

Not sure how I can handle this better, I can't move hte checks to after, as some custom event handlers send on messages, etc. so they'll never get to the remaining code

from node-red-dashboard.

We do not have good E2E test coverage on this topic though, so tomorrow morning I'll sweep across all of the widgets and ensure we have coverage to check for dynamic class injections

from node-red-dashboard.

Sorry, I did not pay attention to the debug console.
If I understand you correctly, the widget should ignore the unnecessary property ?

I changed the code to

var newMsg={};
newMsg.class ="my_switch_class";
return newMsg;

or

msg.class = "my_switch_class";
delete msg.payload;
return msg;

and it works as expected.

If you select "Custom Icon" in the config, you can control that here:
