@Brian, unfortunately changes to unity-scopes-shell take considerably
longer to land than changes to our bindings, so I can't promise it'll be
available any sooner than 1, maybe 2 weeks.
My suggestion would be to implement a workaround in your JS code for the
time being that checks for quotes either side of a settings value, then
strips them out. At least this way, you can have your scope working
ASAP, plus the change will be backward compatible even once the fix
lands.
Something like this:
function unquote(str)
{
if (str[0] === '"' && str[str.length - 1] === '"')
return str.slice(1, str.length - 1);
return str;
}
then later:
var setting =
unquote(scopes.self.settings["location"].get_string());

Title:
String settings with special characters become quoted
Status in unity-js-scopes:
Invalid
Status in unity-scopes-shell package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Bug description:
I'm unsure if this is a bug in the JS scopes or in scopes themselves,
but a string setting that has special characters entered into it (like
`=`) end up being surrounded by quotes when pulled in the code. For
example I have a string setting that I entered `abc=abc`, the result
in the code is `"abc=abc"`. I find this behavior to be very odd and
unexpected.
