Right now I populate this column manually, but I will either write a script or a plugin to do that for me. Just not sure when I will find the time to do so. I have a concept, but I will have to look into plugin development in more detail. If you are interested, here is my format_index function: Code:
def evaluate(self, formatter, kwargs, mi, locals, val, template): # Check if the argument is empty. If so, return the empty string if val == '': return '' # Return the input as is, if template is empty if template == '': return val # Not empty. Must be a number. If it isn't, bad things will happen. # split the strings in integer and fractional parts v = val.split('.') t = template.split('.') if len(v) == 1: v.extend('0') # trim leading and trailing zeros v_int = v[0].lstrip( '0' ) if len(t) != 1: v_frac = v[1].rstrip( '0' ) # determine the number of digits for the integer and fractional part of the template digits_int = len(t[0].lstrip('0')) if len(t) != 1: digits_frac = len(t[1].rstrip('0')) # pad the input val according to the template val_int = v_int.rjust(digits_int, '0') if len(t) != 1 and digits_frac != 0: val_frac = v_frac.ljust(digits_frac, '0') retval = val_int + '.' + val_frac else: retval = val_int return retval Code:
program: format_index(field('series_index'), field('#seriestemplate')) |
