I am trying to create an input-view that will refresh every few seconds. The goal is to have a few buttons that increment and the user will click on the buttons when the buttons reach a 100. However, it seems like the action is waiting for an input so it is not updating. I found on the documentation that you can refresh an input-view, but I can't find any examples of it.
This is the code that I want to update:
input-view{
match: State(state){
to-input: UpdateGame
}
message{
template ("#{value(state.display)}"){
speech ("#{value(state.say)}")
}
}
refresh{
spec{
delay-seconds (2)
with-request{
intent{
goal: UpdateGame
}
}
}
}
render{
selection-of (state.options){
where-each (option){
cell-card{
slot2{
content{
primary{
template ("#{value(option)}")
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
There is one example of result-view in this doc
result-view {
match {
Activity (this)
}
refresh {
if (!exists(this.receipt)) {
spec {
delay-seconds (5)
with-request {
intent {
goal: CheckRideShareStatus
value {$expr(this)}
}
}
}
}
}
conversation-drivers {
if ("this.status == 'Requested' || this.status == 'Confirmed'") {
conversation-driver {
template ("Cancel my Uber ride")
}
}
}
render {
layout-match (this) {
mode (Details)
}
}
}
Sorry I've not caught this question earlier.
I've just verified that this issue is fixed in 20B SDK release.
Please refer the release notes for details about other changes.

Hi I want to go to another action by putting a conditional statement in the action output.
What should I do?
For example
action (~~) {
description (Validate items passed from javascript)
collect {
input (~~) {
type (~~)
min (~~) max (~~)
}
}
type(~~~)
output (items){
on-empty(items.item1){ // if items.item1 is empty.
replan { // go to case1Action.
intent {
goal : case1Action
value : ~~~~~
}
}
}else{ // else
replan { // go to case2Action.
intent {
goal : case2Action
value : ~~~~~
}
}
}
}
or I want to select the view according to the output value.(Actually this is the purpose of the question)
output (items){
if(items.item1 == "goFirstCase"){
// First case view
}else{
// Second case view
}
}
I think by "select a different view according to the output value" I presume you mean you want to change what shows on the screen? because a "view" actually is comprised of the dialog, layout, and conversation-drivers.
https://bixbydevelopers.com/dev/docs/dev-guide/developers/building-views.views
For majority of use cases, there's really only one result-view that will be used, and any of the three contents of a view can be changed based on your preferred conditions as the above answer suggests.
within a view you can have the three different components defined with these three blocks: message for dialog, render for layout, and conversation-drivers
using your example,
//in a result-view
message {
if (items.item1 == "firstCase") {
template-macro (firstCase-result-dialog) {//enter params}
}
}
render {
if (size(items) > 1) {
list-of (items) {
where-each (item) {
if (item == "firstCase") {
layout-match (item) {
mode (Summary)
}
// OR use layout-macro
layout-macro (firstCase-result-summary-thumbnail-card) {//enter params}
}
}
}
}
}
similar conditional work can be done on conversation-drivers of course.
In your case, you would not need on-empty in action, but use template-macro-def as briefly explained in https://corp.bixbydevelopers.com/dev/docs/dev-guide/developers/refining-dialog.dialog-macros
// template file one
template-macro-def (id1) {
params {
param (x) {
Type (Items) ....
}
// template file two
template-macro-def (id2) {
// param x is type Items
}
//view file
result-view {
match: Items(this)
// after some checking make sure is single item
// it is possible to use other condition like if (this.sub1 == 2)
if (exists(this.sub1)) {
template-macro (id1) {
param (x) { expression (this) }
}
}
else {
template-macro (id2) {
param (x) { expression (this) }
}
}
The above would be the recommended way to handle different views for same concept in Bixby.
on-empty in action would be used for the purpose of either replan or relax some search condition in order to avoid 0 result. Bixby does not support on-empty(key) {} syntax according to https://corp.bixbydevelopers.com/dev/docs/reference/type/action.output.on-empty and on-empty would only apply in your case if output(items) itself is empty and would not check any sub-property of items.
Another option.
instead to use 'on-empty' block, you can use 'throws - error'
in action model,
output (items) {
throws {
error (case1ActionError) {
on-catch {
replan {
intent {
goal : case1Action
value : ~~~~~
}
}
}
}
error (case2ActionError) {
on-catch {
replan {
intent {
goal : case2Action
value : ~~~~~
}
}
}
}
}
}
And, in js code,,
if (error condition1) {
throw fail.checkedError('case 1 error', 'case1ActionError')
} else if (error condition2) {
throw fail.checkedError('case 2 error', 'case2ActionError')
}
For fail, refer to https://bixbydevelopers.com/dev/docs/reference/JavaScriptAPI/fail#failcheckederrormessage-errorid-errorobj
I want to insert tiny type above the answer set providing a bit of metadata, but can't figure out how to do it. I just want the layout macro content-answer-set-info to say something like "results in reverse chronological order" in Legal or Detail_S. I want it to appear below altbrains workshop and above the first item in the list.
render {
if (size(this) > 1) {
list-of (this) {
has-details (true)
where-each (item) {
layout-macro (content-thumbnail-card) {
param (content) {
expression (item)
}
}
}
}
}
else-if (size(this) == 1) {
layout-match (this) {
mode (Details)
}
}
else {layout-macro (content-zero-results) {}
}
I would recommend wrapping this layout macro in a section and using the section-title (documentation) key to give it the text above the list.
There is an alternative solution that use section -> title but not with list-of
render {
layout {
section {
title {
template ("Voice command Add One")
}
content {
for-each (this) {
as (item) {
title-card {
title-area {
slot2 {
single-line {
text {
value {
template ("Integer: #{value(item.number)}")
}
style (Detail_L)
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
What are some good examples of different ways to handle zero result search answer sets in result views?
Here's what I have right now. I assume I want to do size(this) < 1 but before I plunge ahead I want some ideas about what to do. For example, should I just say "search again" or should I try to recommend something to do?
render {
if (size(this) > 1) {
list-of (this) {
//default-sort-order {
// sorting(this.title)
// }
has-details (true)
where-each (item) {
layout-macro (content-thumbnail-card) {
param (content) {
expression (item)
}
}
}
}
} else-if (size(this) == 1) {
layout-match (this) {
mode (Details)
}
}
}
There is a NoResult dialog that will automatically activate for this condition:
https://bixbydevelopers.com/dev/docs/reference/ref-topics/dialog-modes.dialog-events#no-result-event
You can also place a conditional in your result view. For example:
result-view {
match: SomeConcept(this)
message {
if (size(this) == 0) {
template (No results)
}
}
render {
layout {
section {
content {
// No Result
if (size(this)== 0) {
paragraph(Sorry, I didn't find anything)
}
}
}
}
}
}
I'm really stuck and don't know what to do.
I've never worked in Bixby Studio and got that warning "page might be empty".
I've seen two similar posts about this problem, but they didn't help me at all.
item-selection-question {
first warning--> if (isFirstNavPage(page) && isLastNavPage(page)) {
template ("")
second warning--> } else-if (!isLastNavPage(page)) {
template-macro (HANDS_FREE_OPTION_ITEM_SELECTION_MORE_PAGES)
} else {
template-macro (HANDS_FREE_OPTION_ITEM_SELECTION_LAST_PAGES)
}
}
overflow-statement {
template-macro (HANDS_FREE_OPTION_OVERFLOW_STATEMENT)
}
overflow-question {
template-macro (HANDS_FREE_OPTION_OVERFLOW_QUESTION)
}
page-marker {
third warning--> if (!isFirstNavPage(page) && isLastNavPage(page)) {
template-macro (HANDS_FREE_OPTION_LAST_OPTION) {
param (page) {
expression (page)
}
}
}
}
I had a similar warning for,
content {
template ("Here's #{value(audioInfo.audioItem[audioInfo.startAudioItemIndex].artist)}.") {
speech ("Here's #{value(audioInfo.audioItem[audioInfo.startAudioItemIndex].title)}[ from #{value(audioInfo.audioItem[audioInfo.startAudioItemIndex].artist)}].")
}
}
WARN audioInfo.startAudioItemIndex might be empty
I changed the above snippet to,
content {
if(exists(audioInfo.startAudioItemIndex)){
template ("Here's #{value(audioInfo.audioItem[audioInfo.startAudioItemIndex].artist)}.") {
speech ("Here's #{value(audioInfo.audioItem[audioInfo.startAudioItemIndex].title)}[ from #{value(audioInfo.audioItem[audioInfo.startAudioItemIndex].artist)}].")
}
}
}
And it no longer shows the warning.
Try and see if it helps.
I am showing multiple choices on user's screen with thumbnail-card in bixby. Have added the slots for click as well. What I am trying to achieve is if user click on the thumbnail, i should get the id of the particular card and process it for further information.This is the layout
layout-macro-def (artist-thumbnail-card) {
params {
param (artistchoice) {
type (ArtistChoiceResult)
min (Required) max (One)
}
}
content {
thumbnail-card {
image-position (Start)
image-url ("#{value(artistchoice.multiple_image)}")
title-area {
halign (Start)
slot1 {
text {
value ("#{value(artistchoice.multiple_name)}")
style (Title_S)
}
}
slot2 {
single-line {
text {
value ("From #{value(artistchoice.multiple_cat)}")
style (Detail_L_Soft)
}
}
}
}
on-click {
intent {
goal: ArtistSearch
}
}
}
}
}
And this is the result view
result-view {
match: ArtistChoiceResult (artistchoice) {
from-output: ArtistChoice
}
message {
template ("Please select one of the following")
}
render {
if (size(artistchoice) > 1) {
list-of (artistchoice) {
has-details (true)
where-each (item) {
layout-macro (artist-thumbnail-card) {
param (artistchoice) {
expression (item)
}
}
}
}
} else-if (size(artistchoice) == 1) {
layout-match (artistchoice) {
mode (Details)
}
}
}
}
I am not able to send the ID information to the artistSearch Intent. How will I achieve that. And I have Id in other variable, so how do i pass that value?
Based on the code you have provided, we have to assume 2 things:
1) This is the result-view that is triggered for an artistchoice structure
2) The multiple_name is an array that holds all the options.
Given the above assumptions, you would need to build a layout where each of the elements of multiple_name (multiple_name[1], multiple_name[2], multiple_name[3], etc.).
Since one on-click event cannot be defined with variable click events, you would need to create a separate card for each multiple choice option so there is one on-click event per card. This would allow the on-click to look like the following:
on-click {
intent {
goal: ArtistSearch
value-set: [YOUR CONCEPT HERE]{$expr(artistchoice.multiple_name[1])}
}
}
