I have a script that uses a html popup window to get user input and pass the data to my main script after the user enters data and click the 'submit' button. I want the window to close after the user clicks submit so I added a google.script.host.close() in my code but when I add that line the script doesn't always run. The script works fine when I remove the close().
I'm quite new to javascript / google script so I suspect I did something wrong. I tried adding a sleep function before the close() but it doesn't seem to do anything.
Is there something wrong in my code? I need some help.
Here's my HTML file:
<!DOCTYPE html><html><head><base target="_top"></head><form class="form-inline"><p>Entrez le # de ligne des formulaires à créer.</p><label for="debut">Première ligne :</label><input type="number" id="debut" name="debut" min="2"/><br/><br / ><label for="fin">Dernière ligne :</label><input type="number" id="fin" name="fin"/><br/><br / ><input type="submit" id="soumettre" value="Soumettre" onclick="getInput()"/><input type="button" id="annuler" value="Annuler" onclick="google.script.host.close()" /></form></html><script>function getInput(){ var valueDebut = document.getElementById("debut").value; var valueFin = document.getElementById("fin").value; google.script.run.main(valueDebut, valueFin); google.script.run.sleep(); google.script.host.close();}</script>Here are parts of my google script code:
/**** UI ****/function onOpen() { SpreadsheetApp.getUi() // Or DocumentApp or SlidesApp or FormApp. .createMenu('Formulaires') .addItem('Créer des formulaires', 'showDialog') .addItem('Synchroniser les formulaires', 'checkAttente') .addToUi();}function showDialog() { var html = HtmlService.createHtmlOutputFromFile('Dialog') .setWidth(315) .setHeight(185); SpreadsheetApp.getUi() .showModalDialog(html, 'Création de formulaire');} /**** MAIN ****/function main(valueDebut, valueFin) { var minRow = valueDebut; var maxRow = valueFin; var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openById('xxx'); var sheet = ss.getSheetByName('xxx'); for (var i = minRow; i <= maxRow; i++){ var currentRow = i; var data = getData(sheet, currentRow); if (data[6] == ""&& data[7] != 0) { var update = createForm(data[0],data[1],data[2],data[3],data[4],data[5],nomFolder); sheet.getRange(currentRow, colLienEdit).setValue(update[0]); sheet.getRange(currentRow, colLienPartage).setValue(update[1]); sheet.getRange(currentRow, colId).setValue(update[2]); sheet.getRange(currentRow, colStatut).setValue(update[3]); } }}function sleep(){ Utilities.sleep(1000);}
