Dashticz - General Discussions

[Venzent]

I have my Nest thermostat configured in Domoticz, so the temperature and humidty is reported. I would like to show the temperature on the dashboard, but have no clue on how to do it, cannot find an example either. Any directions for me?

If you mean dashboard of Dashticz? Then you need to find out what IDX number is youre temperature sensor on Domoticz.

Ex:

My temperature sensor idx on domoticz is: 2

in the config.js file you do the following

Code: Select all

columns[1] = {}
columns[1]['blocks'] = ['2'']
columns[1]['width'] = 5;

There you go, you add you're temperature sensor on Dashticz.

Jeez, that easy
Thought the blocks were always switches, so was completely looking in the wrong direction .......
Thanks

You're welcome.
See a mistake in my block. A ' too much in the end, keep an eye on that.

This might be a silly question that has been answered a million times, but I can't quite find the answer!

My dashticz tells me there is a new version available. However, 'git pull'-ing in the www/dashtics_v2 folder tells me 'up-to-date'.

How do I upgrade? (I am on stable/master, not on beta).

The update-message is a little buggy.. will be fixed...

[MsbS]

Thanks for super-quick response, Rob, so git pull is still the right way to stay updated.

[robgeerts]

Indeed!

Versions we have to update manually after the latest PR. I got you a new PR for new versions (1 for master and 1 for beta)

In the last few weeks I notice the following
Every now and then the weather block uses the wrong date's.
It shows date's from 4 to 7 of January.
The clock is showing the right date.
Refreshing the webpage (manually or auto refresh) corrects the problem temporary

It's the build-in weather block, didn't edit anything on it.

Anyone else experiencing this? Or have a clue how to fix this?

[EdwinK]

Got the same.No idea on how to fix it. Just refreshing the page

Just merged!

I will check to see if I get the wrong dates too in my weatherblock..

Thank you for your clear instruction! I've been messing around with Dashticz, but many of my Domoticz devices are not producing blocks:

Code: Select all

columns[5]['blocks'] = [
            1,      // openWeather weather                  Works: shows 3 blocks
            '1_1',  // openWeather weather degrees          Works
            2,      // openWeather wind                     Doesn't work
            3,      // openWeather visibility               Doesn't work
            4,      // Everspring zWave plug: switch        Works
            8,      // Everspring zWave plug: usage         Works
            10,     // Qubino zWave dimmer                  Works
            16,     // NeoCoolcam zWave plug: switch        Works
            25,     // SystemAliveChecker: Livingroom PC    Doesn't work
            26,     // SystemAliveChecker: Wifi IP cam      Doesn't work
            27,     // SystemAliveChecker: Study PC         Doesn't work
            34,     // Kodi masterbedroom (minix android)   Doesn't work
            35,     // Kodi livingroom (latest openElec)    Doesn't work
            36,     // SolarEdge web-api kWh                Doesn't work
            41,     // VirtualDevice: Virtual switch        Doesn't work
            42      // Philips RGBW Hue bulb hallway        Doesn't work
        ];

The HTML source only shows empty div containers for the non-working blocks:

Code: Select all

<div data-id="34" class="mh transbg block_34"></div>

I've downloaded the latest zip file from github. My Domoticz is fully updated aswel.

I have a feeling I'm missing something very simple here. However, delving trough this topic doesn't help me find the solution.
Do you have any idea?

Edit: I've found the solution on a Dutch forum. For some reason config['auto_positioning'] was set to 1.
Setting this to 0 instantly shows all missing blocks.

[Venzent]

Just a question if this is the way to go:
My Domoticz is accessible from the internet, ports are forwarded. As my Dashticz is running on the same webserver and ports, Dashticz is also accessible from the internet, as wel as the config files !!!! This is (at least) not very secure.
To prevent this, I will install another webserver and let Dashticz run on it on non-forwarded ports, so Dashticz is only accesible from within my own network.

There is no "build-in" solution or option for this? A second webserver is "the way to go"?

Hello all,

Looks like the url HTTP://fontawesome.io/cheatsheet ( mentioned in the dashticz wiki) directs to the New version of fontawesome. Can Dashticz be used with this new symbols? Or maybe somebody knows where the old cheatsheet can be found?

Thanks Rob, really enjoying my dasticz dashboard.

Hi,

Here you can find the old version cheatsheet: https://fontawesome.com/v4.7.0/icons/
New icons are not integrated in Dashticz (yet).

Hello,

Been a while that I updated Dashticz, I still run a version from november 2017, but it suits me and made some modifications to my liking.
But exploring the latest beta versions I see some nice additions and bugfixes. So about 3 weeks ago I downloaded beta version 2.3.4.

Here is my problem:
In my old version if I look at my temperature/hygro values I could see the values/last update time change every 60 seconds. (set in config.js)

In version 2.3.4 I dont see anything happen no change in values/ last update time. The settings in config.js are the same as in my old version.
What do I miss ?, I cant find anything relevant on the forum or the wiki..

Regards
Frank

in the config.js file edit manually [edit_mode] = 0 default is '0' will be fixed in next beta 2.3.6

[yfands]

Hai
Dashticz version Beta 2.3.5
raspberry pi 3

Playing with the speak option

In the config.js
config['speak_lang'] = 'nl-NL';

and in a block definition the following dutch sentence (translated: The temperature has changed)
blocks['636_1']['speak'] = 'Temperatuur is gewijzigd';

The lady tries her best but can't pronounce the dutch sentence it is still english based.
So, what must I do for her to understand the sentence is dutch?
Isn't config['speak_lang'] = 'nl-NL'; in the config file enough ?

regards
Frank

Does anyone know how to use css to modify a drop-down selector switch?
I've found these instructions for when they're set to buttons:

label.btn.btn-default.active {
background-color: rgba(255,69,0,0.8);
border-color: rgba(0,0,0,1);
}

..but I'd like to be able to change it when its set to a drop down menu (i.e. Select Menu).

I am having issues with my webcams in Dashticz. (latest beta but master too)
Showing ok at first, but after a while (refresh) the image disappears and the image not found icon is shown.
After a manual refresh the image is back until the next auto refresh

Manual repeated refreshes in a browser window never give failures or timeouts.

Found another syntax in this topic but that gives me the same issues

Code: Select all

buttons.webcam1 = {width:12, isimage:true, refreshimage: 10000, refreshurl: 10000, image: 'http://192.168.0.30:88/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=snapPicture2&usr=xxx&pwd=xxx&t=', url: 'http://192.168.0.30:88/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=snapPicture2&usr=xxx&pwd=xxx&t='}
buttons.webcam2 = {width:12, isimage:true, refresh:10000, image: 'http://192.168.0.31:88/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=snapPicture2&usr=xxx&pwd=xxx&t=', url: 'http://192.168.0.31:88/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=snapPicture2&usr=xxx&pwd=xxx&t='}

Anyone an idea ? This happens in both chrome as Fully Kiosk Browser
