BazBrokerWidget
- By
A LibDataBroker display for BazWidgetDrawers — every LDB feed becomes a dockable widget.
> Warning: Requires BazCore and BazWidgetDrawers. If you use the CurseForge app they install automatically. Manual users must install both.
BazBrokerWidget
Bridges LibDataBroker-1.1 feeds into BazWidgetDrawers. Every LDB-publishing addon (Bagnon, Recount, Skada, BugSack, almost anything with a minimap data button) shows up as its own dockable widget you can position, reorder, or disable like any other BWD widget.
Features
- One widget per feed — BWD's existing enable/disable, reorder, and float controls work per-feed for free
- Live updates — subscribes to LDB attribute changes so text/value/icon updates without a
/reload - Late-registration aware — feeds that register after login (lazy init, first event) appear automatically
- Click + tooltip forwarding — feed clicks invoke the addon's normal launcher action; hover shows the feed's native tooltip
- Both LDB types — supports
data sourcefeeds (text + value) andlauncherfeeds (icon-only quick action)
How It Works
When BazBrokerWidget loads, it asks LDB for every registered data object and registers one BWD dockable widget per feed. Each widget renders a compact:
[icon] Label Value
Click → forwards to the feed's OnClick. Hover → forwards to OnTooltipShow / OnEnter. Live changes to text, value, icon, and label re-render the widget automatically.
Late-registering feeds (the common case for "addon registers LDB on first use") are picked up via the LibDataBroker_DataObjectCreated callback, so you don't need to reload to see them.
