Rapier displays samba passwords for custom backgrounds - snoopyd - 2019-07-12
Hi. I've set up custom backgrounds for e.g. power, system, etc. in Rapier (Kodi 18.3 Libreelec) to each serve multiple backgrounds from samba shares. But the settings page scrolls the path to the share and includes the samba username and password, e.g. it scrolls "smb://user:password@server/backgrounds/". It shouldn't display the password like that.

Hi snoopyd and welcome to the forums.
Well, it's unfortunately not possible to hide the password and username info.
The skin/Kodi can't tell if there's a password in the background property string. It only displays the info entered by the user.

s/(smb:\/\/)([^:]+):([^@]+)(@.*)/$1$2:**hidden**$4/
would replace 'smb://user:pw@server/path' with 'smb://user:**hidden**@server/path'

It's a really good idea.
But I have no idea how to (if possible at all) integrate regex into the string in the skinning engine.
I tried entering
Code:
smb://user:password@server/backgrounds/Code:
$INFO[Skin.String(CustomAddonsBGPath,s/(smb:\/\/)([^:]+):([^@]+)(@.*)/$1$2:**hidden**$4/)]But it just displays the entire string with the regex first.
Any suggestions?
I'll look into this after my vacation.

As far as I know, it's unfortunately not possible to use regex directly inside skins.
Sorry.
If someone has some info, please let me know.
