Scripting: Freeplane Utility Classes

There are a few utility classes in Freeplane that are of special use for scripting:

UITools

<groovy> public class UITools {

   public static final String MAIN_FREEPLANE_FRAME = "mainFreeplaneFrame";
   public static void addEscapeActionToDialog(final JDialog dialog);
   public static void addEscapeActionToDialog(final JDialog dialog, final Action action);
   public static void addKeyActionToDialog(final JDialog dialog, final Action action, final String keyStroke,
   public static void convertPointFromAncestor(final Component source, final Point p, Component c);
   public static void convertPointToAncestor(final Component source, final Point point, final Class ancestorClass);
   public static void convertPointToAncestor(Component c, final Point p, final Component destination);
   public static void errorMessage(final Object message);
   public static Frame getFrame();
   public static KeyStroke getKeyStroke(final String keyStrokeDescription);
   public static void informationMessage(final Frame frame, final String message);
   public static void informationMessage(final Frame frame, final String message, final String title);
   public static void informationMessage(final Frame frame, final String text, final String string, final int type);
   public static void setBounds(final Component frame, int win_x, int win_y, int win_width, int win_height);
   public static void setDialogLocationRelativeTo(final JDialog dialog, final Component c);
   public static void setDialogLocationRelativeTo(final JDialog dialog, final Controller controller,
   public static void setDialogLocationUnder(final JDialog dialog, final Controller controller, final NodeModel node);
   public static int showConfirmDialog(final Controller controller, final NodeModel node, final Object message,
   public static String showInputDialog(final Controller controller, final NodeModel node, final String text,
   public static String showInputDialog(final Controller controller, final NodeModel node, final String text,

} </groovy>

HtmlTools

<groovy> public class HtmlTools {

   public static HtmlTools getInstance();
   public static String htmlToPlain(final String text);
   public static String htmlToPlain(final String text, final boolean strictHTMLOnly);
   public static boolean isHtmlNode(final String text);
   public static String plainToHTML(final String text);
   public static String removeAllTagsFromString(final String text);
   public static String removeHtmlTagsFromString(final String text);
   public static String toXMLEscapedText(final String text);
   public static String toXMLEscapedTextExpandingWhitespace(String text);
   public static String toXMLUnescapedText(final String text);
   public static String unescapeHTMLUnicodeEntity(final String text);
   public static String unicodeToHTMLUnicodeEntity(final String text);
   public static int endOfText(final String html);
   // the remainder could/should be static as well:
   public int getMaximalOriginalPosition(final int pI, final ArrayList pListOfIndices);
   public int getMinimalOriginalPosition(final int pI, final ArrayList pListOfIndices);
   public String getReplaceResult(final Pattern pattern, final String replacement, final String text);
   public boolean isWellformedXml(final String xml);
   public String toHtml(final String xhtmlText);
   public String toXhtml(String htmlText);

} </groovy>

LogTool

Gives access to Freeplane's standard logging facility:

<groovy> public class LogTool {

   public static void createLogger();
   public static void info(final String string);
   public static void info(final Transferable t);
   public static void severe(final String message);
   public static void severe(final String comment, final Throwable e);
   public static void severe(final Throwable e);
   public static void warn(final String msg);
   public static void warn(final String comment, final Throwable e);
   public static void warn(final Throwable e);

} </groovy>
