show expiry date

Hi,

there is currently no API to access the expire date, but I will consider one of the next releases.

Best regards,
Klaus

Hi, Klaus this feature is very important. Now the only option is to link to Website. Another option as: "Message to show when expired" would be very good.
Best Regards,
Fernando.

Fernando, you can already do that. Just set a variable with the value of expiration and check if current time is lower or bigger...

Thanks Jordy, this is very important for me.

Where is that info? How to get that variable? Any example please.

Where is that info? How to get that variable? Any example please.

Just add it to the skin_settings variables:

<skin_settings
      expiry="######"
      gyro="true"
      ....
/>

If you want a message to appear add a textfield and display it there.

Thanks Scott and Jordy,
1) Is there any krpano current date variable or it is javascript variable?
2) The idea is before to load the complete project, check this var: if the date expired then show message, if not run normally?

Pretty sure you need to do a js call to get the system date.

You should use unix time, so if you don't want to make it dynamic go this web page and transform your expiration date into unix timesatamp

https://www.unixtimestamp.com/

then set in your krpano tag the expirationDate atribute

<krpano expirationDate="1594451340" onstart="checkExpiration();" >

then it comes the action that you will probably need to execute on start

<action name="checkExpiration" type="javascript"><![CDATA[


    var expirationDate = krpano.get("expirationDate");
    var currentTime = new Date().getTime()/1000; // UNIX TIME IN SECONDS
   


    if (currentTime > expirationDate) {
        doSomething(); // Javascript Action
        // or 
        krpano.call("myKrpanoAction()");
    }


]]></action>

Thanks Jordi, your example is very usefull. It works fine

Fernando,
This code does not check expiration date but installation version of krpano but may be useful, too. Just set the expire_date before.

<!-- krpano version check -->
	<action name="combobox_versioncheck" autorun="preinit">
		if(build LT '2017-09-13',
			error('combobox.xml - too old krpano version!');
			set(events[combobox_xml_plugin_events].name, null);
			set(action[addComboboxLayer].content, '');
			set(action[removeComboboxLayer].content, '');
		);
	</action>

It is located in the krapno examples ..\krpano\krpano-1.19-pr16-win\viewer\plugins\combobox.xml file.

Thanks Pavel,

Zitat von pur

if(build LT '2017-09-13',

in this case, the problem is how to get the current date in krpano ... Do you know how?

Greets,
Fernando.

Hi Fernando,
Here is the action

<!-- Expiration check  -->
	<action name="check_expire" scope="localonly" args="exp_date">
		jsget(today, 'new Date().toISOString().slice(0,10);');
		trace('Today is ', get(today));			
		if(today GT exp_date,
			//your actions here e.g.:
			error('Sorry, your creditcard has expired!');
		);
	</action>

and the call is:

check_expire('2017-12-31');

Regards,
Pavel

Thanks Pavel, very good solution!

Hi,

yes, it is exposed now as '_krpanolicense.expiredate' variable and has the format "YYYY-MM-DD".

Klaus
