How to disable autorun in embeds? about livecodes HOT 6 CLOSED

this is now fixed by #345 and should be available in next release
you may test it here: https://dev.livecodes.io

this code should now work as expected:

<div id="livecodes-qlbo5jm6qm">
  <span>Open the project <a href="https://livecodes.io/?x=id/tse96fdpgz4" target="_blank">Untitled Project</a> in <a href="https://livecodes.io/" target="_blank">LiveCodes</a></span>
</div>

<script src="https://livecodes.io/sdk/livecodes.umd.js"></script>
<script>
const options = {
  appUrl: 'https://dev.livecodes.io/',
  params: {
    languages: "pyodide",
    autoupdate: false,
    console: "full",
  },
  import: "id/tse96fdpgz4",
  loading: "eager",
};
livecodes.createPlayground("#livecodes-qlbo5jm6qm", options);
</script>

open in LiveCodes

@moonpiedumplings please let me know if that solves your problem.

hi @moonpiedumplings ,

your imported project (id/tse96fdpgz4) already provides the configuration object, so your config settings are overridden.
To override project config, use params

<div id="livecodes-qlbo5jm6qm">
  <span>Open the project <a href="https://livecodes.io/?x=id/tse96fdpgz4" target="_blank">Untitled Project</a> in <a href="https://livecodes.io/" target="_blank">LiveCodes</a></span>
</div>

<script src="https://livecodes.io/sdk/livecodes.umd.js"></script>
<script>
const options = {
  params: {
    languages: "pyodide",
    autoupdate: false,
    preview: false,
    console: "full",
  },
  import: "id/tse96fdpgz4",
  loading: "click",
};
livecodes.createPlayground("#livecodes-qlbo5jm6qm", options);
</script>

The result always runs when the playground is first loaded. autoupdate determines what happens when the code changes. If you do not want to run the playground, you may use the embed option loading: "click".

The params.preview option allows showing a faded preview of the html page behind the "click to load" screen. However, the script will still run before loading the playground. To prevent that, set it to false.

console: "full" is what you are asking for.

I probably need to add a config option autorun to determine if the result page should run when the playground first loads.

also, the preview option needs to be documented

I probably need to add a config option autorun to determine if the result page should run when the playground first loads.

on a second thought, if autoupdate is set to false the result page should not run, even when playground first loads.
this will prevent the confusion of having 2 similar options with different meanings.

to handle the scenario of wanting to run the page once when the playground loads:

import { createPlayground } from 'livecodes';

const options = {
  params: { autoupdate: false },
  // other embed options
};
createPlayground("#container", options).then(playground => {
  playground.run();
});

this is being addressed in #345 and should be available in next release

@moonpiedumplings thank you for reporting

The params.preview option allows showing a faded preview of the html page behind the "click to load" screen. However, the script will still run before loading the playground. To prevent that, set it to false.

it is probably also not a good idea to have the preview page run by default, specially if the page sends alerts or starts sounds, etc.

@moonpiedumplings I will close this as fixed.

If you still have a problem with this issue please feel free to re-open it.
