Hey there,
We want to set a default value for ubuntu-frame display variable. However, the contents of this variable is a complete configuration file…
I tried adding this section to my gadget yaml:
defaults:
BPZbvWzvoMTrpec4goCXlckLe2IhfthK:
display: '''
layouts:
default:
cards:
- card-id: 0
eDP-1:
# This output supports the following modes: 1280x800@60.0
#
# Uncomment the following to enforce the selected configuration.
# Or amend as desired.
#
state: enabled # {enabled, disabled}, defaults to enabled
mode: 1280x800@60.0 # Defaults to preferred mode
position: [0, 0] # Defaults to [0, 0]
orientation: right # {normal, left, right, inverted}, defaults to normal
scale: 1
group: 0 # Outputs with the same non-zero value are treated as a single display
HDMI-A-1:
# (disconnected)
DisplayPort-1:
# (disconnected)
'''
But when reading it inside the booted image all the newline seem to be stripped:
charlee-clay@ubuntu:~$ snap get ubuntu-frame display
'layouts:\n default:\n cards:\n - card-id: 0 \n eDP-1: # This output supports the following modes: 1280x800@60.0 # # Uncomment the following to enforce the selected configuration. # Or amend as desired. # state: enabled # {enabled, disabled}, defaults to enabled mode: 1280x800@60.0 # Defaults to preferred mode position: [0, 0] # Defaults to [0, 0] orientation: right # {normal, left, right, inverted}, defaults to normal scale: 1 group: 0 # Outputs with the same non-zero value are treated as a single display
HDMI-A-1: # (disconnected)
DisplayPort-1: # (disconnected) '
And ubuntu frame fails to parse the file:
2024-03-18T16:40:17Z ubuntu-frame.daemon[5219]: ERROR: in display configuration file: '/var/snap/ubuntu-frame/8587/frame.display' : unrecognized content
2024-03-18T16:40:17Z systemd[1]: snap.ubuntu-frame.daemon.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
2024-03-18T16:40:17Z systemd[1]: snap.ubuntu-frame.daemon.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
Is there a way to somehow give a multiline variable as a default?
Using core22.
