We can add user by pressing on the AddUser button. Basically it reads the list of users from the system and if the target name is not there then it will add to the system. The framework will store the information to the database, so after the reboot the user name will be there.

Following code are used to inser the user name to the system.

 console.log('Calling AddOneUser');
async function AddOneUser() {
  try {        
    var nameControl = TcHmi.Controls.get('TcHmiTextbox_Name');
    var passwdControl = TcHmi.Controls.get('TcHmiPasswordInput_Passwd');
    var timeOutControl = TcHmi.Controls.get('TcHmiTextbox_TimeOut');
    var groupControl = TcHmi.Controls.get('TcHmiTextbox_Group');          
    var name = nameControl.getText();
    var password = passwdControl.getText();
    var timeOut = timeOutControl.getText();
    var grp = groupControl.getSelectedIndex();        
    var emptyString = true;
    if (!name || name.length === 0) {
       console.log('name empty');
    }
    const allUsers = await listUsers();
    var nameDuplicate = true;
    for (const [key, value] of Object.entries(allUsers)) {
        if(key.localeCompare(name) == 0) {
            nameDuplicate = true;
            break;
        }
        nameDuplicate = false;
    }    
    if(nameDuplicate == false){    
    const result = await AddUserEx(name, password, timeOut, grp);    
    console.log(`Add User result  = ${result}`);    
    } else {
        console.log(`Name already found  = ${name}`);        
    }
  }
  catch(error) {
    console.log(`error occured in AddOneUser = ${error}`);
  }
}
AddOneUser();
