Brazen Framework — Configuration Manager (developer guide)

Typed settings schema, pluggable storage drivers (localStorage + Tampermonkey GM), cross-tab sync, backup/restore, and DOM factories bound to View Layer widgets.

Greasy Fork: Configuration Manager · Requires: Utilities, View Layer · Used by: Framework core


When to use / when not to use

  • Use this module when your script needs user-configurable settings, persistence, backup/restore, and a consistent way to bind those settings to UI controls.
  • Don’t use ad-hoc GM_setValue blobs for settings in apps. Prefer defining fields here so the framework can apply/save/reset consistently and include values in backups.
  • Don’t make settings conditional on the current page at definition time. Define fields unconditionally (constructor), and gate behavior later in the framework lifecycle.

Quick start

Define fields in your app’s constructor, then mount them into the settings panel during UI composition.

// constructor (define schema)
this._configurationManager
  .addFlagField('enable-feature')
  .setTitle('Enable Feature')
  .setDefault(true)
  .setHelpText('Turns the feature on/off.')

this._configurationManager
  .addRulesetField('tag-blacklist')
  .setTitle('Tag Blacklist')
  .setRows(15)
  .setHelpText('One rule per line.')
  .setSortRules(true)

// UI composition (mount controls)
this._userInterface = [
  this._uiGen.createTabsSection(['Filters'], [
    this._uiGen.createTabPanel('Filters', true).append([
      this._configurationManager.createElement('enable-feature'),
      this._configurationManager.createElement('tag-blacklist'),
    ]),
  ]),
]

Constructor

new BrazenConfigurationManager(scriptPrefix, uiGenerator, tagSelectorGenerator)
Parameter Role
scriptPrefix Prefix for storage keys (per driver)
uiGenerator BrazenViewLayer instance
tagSelectorGenerator (tag: string) => string — used by addTagRulesetField / _optimizeTagRuleset

Framework exposes this as this._configurationManager. Register fields in the subclass constructor; call initialize() during init() before UI build.


Features

Field keys and titles (stable identity vs label)

Each field has:

  • A stable key (field.key) used for persistence, lookups, docking relationships, and backup/restore.
  • A display title (field.title) used only for UI labels.

The value you pass as the first argument to add*Field(key) is normalized via Utilities.toKebabCase(...) and stored as field.key.

To decouple label text from persistence, use kebab-case keys in code and set the UI label via setTitle(...):

const FILTER_TAG_BLACKLIST = 'tag-blacklist'

this._configurationManager.addRulesetField(FILTER_TAG_BLACKLIST).
  setTitle('Tag Blacklist').
  setRows(15).
  setHelpText('One rule per line.')

Defining a schema: field types and registration

What it does: You define a stable settings schema by adding typed fields. Fields become the single source of truth for UI binding, persistence, validation gating, and backup/restore.

How it works (developer-relevant):

  • Each add*Field(...) returns the field object so you can chain configuration (setDefault, setHelpText, setRows, etc.).
  • Fields default to local storage. Use field.attachStorage('gm') when a value should live in GM storage.
  • Some fields are self-managed (persist: false) and use driver primitives directly (bookmarks, ledger).
Constant add* method Stored value type UI
CONFIG_TYPE_FLAG addFlagField(name) boolean Checkbox
CONFIG_TYPE_TEXT addTextField(name) string Text input; empty → default on read (setDefault)
CONFIG_TYPE_NUMBER addNumberField(name, min, max) number Number input
CONFIG_TYPE_COLOR addColorField(name) color string Color input
CONFIG_TYPE_RANGE addRangeField(name, min, max) { minimum, maximum } Two number inputs
CONFIG_TYPE_SELECT addSelectField(name, pairs) option value See known limitation in spec
CONFIG_TYPE_CHECKBOXES_GROUP addCheckboxesGroup(name, pairs) string[] of checked data-values Checkbox group
CONFIG_TYPE_RADIOS_GROUP addRadiosGroup(name, pairs) selected data-value Radio group
CONFIG_TYPE_RULESET addRulesetField(name) string[] lines Textarea
CONFIG_TYPE_ACTION addActionField(name) n/a (persist: false) Form button or dock-only action
CONFIG_TYPE_BOOKMARKS addBookmarksField(name) array (self-managed on gm) Bookmarks panel
CONFIG_TYPE_LEDGER addLedgerField(name) self-managed id set (not in aggregate blob) No UI — GM-backed duplicate ledger; reload() migrates legacy index-only blobs to per-id entry keys + normalized { [primaryField]: ids }

All add*Field methods return the field object. Chain setHelpText, setDefault, setRows, bookmark/ledger/dock setters, then field.attachStorage('local'|'gm') as needed (default driver: local). Manager methods (onExternalConfigurationChange, setDockActive, …) return the manager.

this._configurationManager.addFlagField('Enable Feature').setHelpText('…').setDefault(true)
this._configurationManager.addRulesetField('Tag Blacklist').setRows(15).setHelpText('…').setSortRules(true)

Rulesets: the Apply/Save pipeline and optimized output

What it does: Ruleset fields turn user-edited textarea lines into a cleaned list of rules, optionally sorted/deduplicated, and optionally optimized into a runtime-friendly structure.

Apply/Save pipeline (setFromUserInterface, used by Apply/Save):

On Apply/Save (setFromUserInterface):

  1. Split textarea by REGEX_LINE_BREAK; trim empty lines.
  2. Optional sortRules: true — locale-aware sort.
  3. onTranslateFromUI(values) — normalize (optional).
  4. Deduplicate individual rules (case-sensitive; first occurrence kept). Refreshes the textarea when duplicates are removed.
  5. onOptimize(values) — store result in field.optimized (filters read this at runtime).

On interface refresh (updateUserInterface):

  • onFormatForUI(value) → join with \n for textarea display.

addTagRulesetField(key, useSelectors, rows, helpText?, formatter?, sortRules?) wraps addRulesetField with default onOptimize_optimizeTagRuleset.

Per-rule API (programmatic edits):

Every ruleset field exposes methods for programmatic add/remove without going through the textarea. Callers get the field via getField(name) and invoke these directly; side effects (save(), compliance refresh, UI refresh elsewhere) remain the caller's responsibility.

Method Role
onMatchRule(storedRule, target) Optional matcher callback; default is strict equality (storedRule === target)
setRules(lines) Canonical write: onTranslateFromUI → optional sortRulesvalueonOptimizeupdateUserInterface
findRuleIndex(target) Index of first matching rule, or -1
hasRule(target) Membership test via onMatchRule
addRule(rule, target?) Upsert: remove matches for target (defaults to rule), append rule, then setRules
removeRule(target) Drop all matches, then setRules
toggleRule(rule, target?) Add or remove via hasRule
clearRules() setRules([])

setRules does not deduplicate (preserves programmatic edits); setFromUserInterface (Apply/Save) still deduplicates via _deduplicateRulesetRules.

Tag rule syntax (one rule per line):

  • & — AND (all tags in segment must match)
  • | — OR within a segment
  • // — comment suffix (ignored after split)

Optimized output: array of arrays (each inner array = one conjunctive rule). Sorted shortest-first.


Bookmarks: addBookmarksField

What it does: A self-managed bookmarks field backed by GM storage, rendered via the View Layer bookmarks panel.

Typical use cases:

  • “Pages I visit often” lists, with optional “current page bookmarked?” UI signals.
addBookmarksField('Bookmarks', 'Add pages you visit often.', {
  storageKey: 'myscript-bookmarks',  // default: {scriptPrefix}bookmarks
  storage: 'gm',                     // default
  normalizeBookmarks: (stored) => /* sanitize array */,
  showAddButton: true,
  pageMatch: { getCurrentUrl, normalizeUrl, onMatchChange, watchSelectors, isActive },
  onAdd, onSort, onRemove(id), onNavigate(url),
  getRowActions(bookmark),  // optional → HTMLElement[] | JQuery[]
})
Behaviour Detail
persist false — not in aggregate blob; dedicated GM key via GmStorageDriver
storage 'gm' by default
Field API reload(), save(), serializeForBackup(), applyFromBackup() (replace on restore)
widget BrazenBookmarksPanel from createBookmarksPanel
setFromUserInterface No-op — mutations call field.save() from site handlers
updateUserInterface reload() then widget.render(value)

UI binding: createElement (mounting fields)

What it does: Builds the View Layer DOM for a field, stores a reference on the field (field.element), and returns the mountable node.

this._configurationManager.createElement('My Setting')  // display name

Invokes the field's createElement() which:

  1. Builds View Layer DOM.
  2. Stores jQuery reference on field.element.
  3. Returns the mountable node (input group or section).

Fields without createElement called remain memory-only until mounted.

Each field implements:

Callback When
createElement() First mount
setFromUserInterface() Apply/Save — read DOM → field.value (+ ruleset optimize)
updateUserInterface() Load/reset/tab switch — write field.value → DOM

Reading values at runtime

this._configurationManager.getValue('My Setting')
this._configurationManager.getField('My Setting')       // ConfigurationField | null
this._configurationManager.getFieldOrFail('My Setting') // throws if missing
this._configurationManager.hasField('My Setting')

ConfigurationField properties: title, type, element, value, optimized?, helpText, minimum, maximum, options, persist, widget, ruleset callbacks.


Persistence (drivers, aggregate blobs, self-managed fields)

Each field has a storage driver key (local by default). Simple fields persist in a per-driver aggregate blob; self-managed types (persist: false, e.g. ledger, bookmarks) use driver primitives directly and participate in backup v2 when they implement serializeForBackup.

Store Driver Key Content
Settings local {scriptPrefix}settings JSON object: kebab keys → values (skips persist: false)
Sync id local {scriptPrefix}settings-id { id: number } — bumps on save
Settings gm {scriptPrefix}settings Same shape in GM namespace (lazy; only when a field uses gm)
Sync id gm {scriptPrefix}settings-id Same in GM namespace

initialize()

  1. Creates the local driver stores (LocalStore).
  2. _syncDriverStores('local') — merge disk into fields; rulesets run onOptimize.
  3. onChange on settings store → updateInterface().
  4. visibilitychange — if tab visible and local id changed, re-sync + onExternalConfigurationChange.

Save / apply / restore

Method Behaviour
update() All mounted fields: setFromUserInterface() (rulesets: trim → optional sort → onTranslateFromUI → dedupe rules case-sensitively → onOptimize)
save() update() → write store → bump sync id
revertChanges() Re-read store into fields + updateInterface()
updateInterface() All mounted fields: updateUserInterface()

Framework button wiring:

  • Applyupdate() + re-run compliance (no disk).
  • Save — apply + save().
  • ResetrevertChanges() + compliance.

Backup format (v2)

backup() downloads {scriptPrefix}backup.json:

{
  "version": 2,
  "id": 123456789,
  "drivers": {
    "local": {
      "tag-blacklist": ["rule1", "rule2"],
      "pagination-threshold": 20
    },
    "gm": {
      "download-ledger": { "postIds": ["123", "456"] },
      "bookmarks": [{ "id": "…", "label": "…", "tags": "…", "url": "…" }]
    }
  }
}

Legacy flat backups (no version / drivers) still import as local values.

restore(response)fetch/Response with JSON body; each field's applyFromBackup handles semantics (ledger merges ids; bookmarks replace list); restores values + sync id; alerts success/failure. Legacy v1 backups without a bookmarks key leave local bookmarks untouched.

Cross-tab sync

onExternalConfigurationChange(handler)(manager) => void when another tab saved. Framework registers compliance re-run.


Validation helper: generateValidationCallback

generateValidationCallback(configKey) → default enable checks:

Type Active when
flag / radios / select truthy value
checkboxes length > 0
number value > 0
range `minimum > 0 \
ruleset / text length > 0

Used by framework _addItemComplianceFilter when no custom validate callback is supplied.


Integration checklist (apps)

  1. Register all fields before init() builds UI.
  2. Use stable English labels — they appear in the panel and backup JSON keys.
  3. Mount with createElement inside tab panels.
  4. Pair enable flags with filters (addFlagField + ruleset).
  5. Self-managed fields (addLedgerField, addBookmarksField) use dedicated driver keys — no ad-hoc GM_setValue in apps.
  6. Set #bv-ui userScript reference if tabs need updateInterface from custom widgets.

Next in stack: Item Attributes Resolver (before Framework core).
