AceConfig (Ace3)

Hi all,

another question, this time with AceConfig
I have gotten my addon working pretty well I'm just having some issues with my Configs.

I have my default db setup as follows;

-- Defaults
local ProEmote_defaults = {
	global = {
		enabled = true,
		Emotes = {
			["hi5"] = {
				["slash"] = "hi5",
				["self"] = "runs around giving everyone a high five",
				["target"] = "holds his hand up for %t to high five",
			},
			["qq"] = {
				["slash"] = "qq",
				["self"] = "mumbles some random qq to himself about fail mages",
				["target"] = "nudges %t and grumbles about his failure",
			},
		}
	}
}

and I have my options setup as;

local ProEmote_options = {
	type = "group",
	name = "ProEmote",
	args = {
		basicDesc = {
			order = 1,
			type = 'description',
			name = "ProEmote allows you to build your own emotes that can be accessed via user defined slash commands",
		},
		general = {
			type="group",
			name= "General",
			order = 10,
			args={
				enable = {
					type = "toggle",
					name = "Enable",
					desc = "Enable ProEmote",
					width = "full",
					order = 10,
					get = function()
						if (addon.db.profile.enabled == false) then
							return false
						else
							return true
						end
					end,
					set = function(info, v)
						if v then
							addon.db.profile.enabled=v
							print("|cffff0000ProEmote:|r You will need to restart your user interface, use the provided button");
						else
							addon.db.profile.enabled=false
						end
					end,
				},
				spacing1 = {
					order = 20,
					type = 'description',
					name = " ",

				spacing2 = {

				reloadUI = {

}

My issues are;
1. Get the List of emotes dynamically and add it to the "Emotes" options group

2. How do I update the options table so the new emote appears there to select

What I would like is an adding a new slash command the options group get updated with the new one so it can be managed.

Thanks for your help

Look at how I handle the options in TabAlerts - you can use my general methodology to inject your emotes table into the config display.

ok so I have it dynamically grabbing my emotes now, only thing that isnt working is when I add a new emote my options are not updating accordingly.

Is there a function to do this? do you want me to paste my entire lua file?

Thanks again

Dont worry I gots it, had to recall the function that was building the listing
