Introduce "when:" test

[kemeris2000]

I suggest alternative test "when". Most often "skip" test require to negate expression which is inconvenient.

Hi @kemeris2000
There is a plan in the backlog to do conditional logic for request pipelines. See #1674

Would a solution like this make your current setup easier?

As it will be conditional and callable from Lowdefy app - it will.
Actually new conditional action which stops event action chain would be sufficient.

events:
  onClick:
	- id: 2a8dda47-8b6c-4abb-9bf2-a29a89e63f20
	  type: Link
	  params:
		pageId: page_next
	  skip:
		_ne:
		  _state: redirect	  
	- id: 2a8dda47-8b6c-4abb-9bf2-a29a89e63f21
	  type: Stop
	  skip:
		_ne:
		  _state: redirect
    - id: 2a8dda47-8b6c-4abb-9bf2-a29a89e63f22
	  type: Request
    - id: 2a8dda47-8b6c-4abb-9bf2-a29a89e63f23
	  type: SetState

Hi @kemeris2000, the Throw action stops the event chain based on a condition. It sounds like this is what you are looking for. In your example you could do the following then:

events:
  onClick:
    - id: 2a8dda47-8b6c-4abb-9bf2-a29a89e63f20
      type: Link
      params:
        pageId: page_next
      skip:
        _ne:
          _state: redirect	  
    - id: 2a8dda47-8b6c-4abb-9bf2-a29a89e63f21
      type: Throw
      messages:
        error: false ## This is to throw silently, otherwise an error will appear on screen
      params:
        throw: ## The action will throw and break the event chain if throw: true
          _state: redirect
    - id: 2a8dda47-8b6c-4abb-9bf2-a29a89e63f22
      type: Request
    - id: 2a8dda47-8b6c-4abb-9bf2-a29a89e63f23
      type: SetState

Thank you JohannMoller. I made completely wrong assumption, sorry for that. This feature request was attempt to reduce code amount in cases, when for example Action1, 2, 3, 4 should execute, while Action11, 12, 13 should skip.

events:
  onMount:
    try:  
      _build.array.flat:
