Dashticz - Feature Requests

[HansieNL]

Hello Rob,
Is it possible to have the following options added to the block section?
blocks[IDX]['TextOn'] -> text shown when switch is on
blocks[IDX]['TextOff'] -> text shown when switch is off
blocks[IDX]['IconOn'] -> image shown when switch is on
blocks[IDX]['IconOff'] -> image shown when switch is off

Hello Rob,
Is it possible to have the following options added to the block section?
blocks[IDX]['TextOn'] -> text shown when switch is on
blocks[IDX]['TextOff'] -> text shown when switch is off
blocks[IDX]['IconOn'] -> image shown when switch is on
blocks[IDX]['IconOff'] -> image shown when switch is off

Do you want the icon to show only when device is on or off?
Is it state text you want to change with custom text?

There is a message function:

Code: Select all

blocks[IDX]['messageOn'] -> text shown right lower corner when switch is on
blocks[IDX]['messageOff'] -> text shown right lower corner when switch is off

[HansieNL]

Do you want the icon to show only when device is on or off? No, I wanna use different icons for on and of.
Is it state text you want to change with custom text? Yep, that's what I mean.
I have several blocks in custom.js. Now I have to edit 2 files to get things done. This is one for example:

Code: Select all

//Microfoon
function getBlock_147(device,idx){ 
   $('.block_'+idx).attr('onclick','switchDevice(this)');
   var html='';
   html+='<div class="col-xs-4 col-icon">';
      if(device['Status']=='Off') html+=iconORimage(idx,'fa-microphone-slash','','off icon');
      else html+=iconORimage(idx,'fa-microphone','','on icon');
   html+='</div>';
   html+='<div class="col-xs-8 col-data">';
   html+='<strong class="title">'+device['Name']+'</strong><br />';
   if(device['Status']=='Off') html+='<span class="state">STIL</span>';
   else html+='<span class="state">LUISTEREN</span>';
   html+='</div>';
   return html;
}

Sorry for the long time to repost, but thank you for this feature!!
Now i can reduce the code
On the wiki is the right way to use it!

Function is added to latest beta

Can you tell us how to use this function? Or is it gonna be added to the wiki shortly?

I have add this to wiki also.

Open a popup when a device changes to on:

Code: Select all

blocks[IDX]['openpopupOn'] = {}
blocks[IDX]['openpopupOn']['url'] = 'http://www.urltocamera.nl/image.jpg';
blocks[IDX]['openpopupOn']['auto_close'] = 5; //seconds	

Open a popup when a device changes to off

Code: Select all

blocks[IDX]['openpopupOff'] = {}
blocks[IDX]['openpopupOff']['url'] = 'http://www.urltocamera.nl/image.jpg';
blocks[IDX]['openpopupOff']['auto_close'] = 5; //seconds

Hi Rob,
Fantastic application.
I have a feature request:

var _STREAMPLAYER_TRACKS
1) Can you add an auto-play option? It can be triggered by a Domoticz switch state change.
2) Can the auto-play have enabled/disable option
3) When switching stations, the new station starts playing, instead of pushing the Play.

Thank you,

Alley Cat

Hi again,
Please find another feature request. I wanted to keep the requests threads separate.

On Domoitcz motion sensor state change, send xset command to turn the LCD on (from screensaver), the same as if to turn-on LCD with by a touch.

Thank you,
Alley Cat

[AlleyCat]

Hi Again,
I have another feature request that came as a result because of my LCD touchscreen panel went bad. Since I am no longer have a touchscreen I plan to send the screen to a regular TV over HDMI. To control the screen I plan to use an IR remote (lirc of flirc). I will need to be able to change the buttons focus with the keystroke movements (left, right, up, down, enter).
How to set the buttons to having focus (for the enter), and move the focus between the buttons?

Thanks

Alley Cat

I have a feature request, i am just new here, so who am i?

I live in the south of Holland, i am a 42 y.o dad of 2 little girls, my name is Jeroen and I am a plc/hmi programmer with a mechanical background in engines and vehicles. My hobbies are o.a. domotica, electric cycling, CLicks®, Duplo® and LEGO®

My old X-10 system is getting out dated, so I am trying something new with Xiaomi, LED Wifi dimmers and sonoff and some different sensors.
Just got a new smart meter installed, and I like to change my thermostat for a Tado, in a short while.

Stumbled upon Domoticz and on the very nice Dashticz theme for controlling it all.

I have learned a lot from you guys and girls, by reading many posts and now i like to implement a "Diashow" when Dashticz goes into "standby after" .

Could it be possible to start a diashow when the standby kicks in ? And would it be a nice feature, if this is possible?

Will be monitoring the comments,
Jeroen@Thuis.

This can already be done if you have an Android tablet and use Fully Kiosk browser.
Can also be triggered by remote:
[IP:2323]/?cmd=startScreensaver&password=[pass]
[IP:2323]/?cmd=stopScreensaver&password=[pass]

The same counts for screen on/off via Domoticz this can also be done by Fully Kiosk Browser.
[IP:2323]/?cmd=screenOn&password=[pass]
[IP:2323]/?cmd=screenOff&password=[pass]

[Thuis]

Nice, okay, when I am as far to using an Android tablet, i will surely try this out. Thank you.

What am i doing wrong ?

127.0.0.1:8080/#/Dashboard works on the server side
192.168.0.11:8080/#/#Dashboard works on the server side

127.0.0.1:8080/dashticz works on the server side
192.168.0.11:8080/dashticz not working on server side, saying something wrong with my config.js, but it is ok, really.

on other client pc's in the same network i can browse to domoticz address and see the standard domoticz dashboard, obviously, no dashticz dashboard.

In my config.js i have:
config['domoticz_ip'] = 'http://192.168.0.11:8080';

What am i doing wrong ?

[Thuis]

Got it, in the index.html i had to change 127.0.0.1 to 192.168.0.11 all good ! :rolling-eyes:

Hi,

I used the openpopupOn and openpopupOff settings to inform the user that something happend. This works, the problem is, that i use the raspberrypi 7" display. It has a height of 480px. The popup has a fixed height of 570px. Is it possible to add a feature to configure the height of an popup?

Bye,

I have a request. Could you add the option to show the balance of the (anonymous) OV card?

That is a very interesting one. We have two of those anonymous cards laying around at home and it is always guesswork how much is still on which card.

[TapNL]

really like this idea. Did some quick research, there is done some work in this direction, check GitHub:

Code: Select all

https://github.com/OVChip/ovchipapi-node

Code: Select all

https://github.com/OVChip/ovchipapi-python

I will give it a try this week.

Is it possible to have a User Variable block with the following options to show variable values?

Code: Select all

blocks[vIDX] = {}
blocks[vIDX]['width'] = 4;
blocks[vIDX]['title'] = 'Variable Name'
blocks[vIDX]['image'] = 'whateveryoulike.png';
blocks[vIDX]['icon'] = 'whateveryoulike';
blocks[vIDX]['switch'] = true;

I am using 2 Youless Energymeters (http://www.youless.nl/). 1 for measuring Electricity and 1 for Gas.

In the default Domoticz dashboard, they are seen as two separate devices, the one for Electricity using kWh and the one for Gas using m3.

But in Dashticz, they both show kWh.

When I search in main.js, I only see the YouLess Meter one time with the kWh as SubType.

Is it possible to add an second entry for detecting the one for gas too?

[ArthurNL]

Is it possible to add an second entry for detecting the one for gas too?

Fixed this myself. I am filtering on the Device-Name instead of Sub-Type.

In main.js, the function getYouLessBlock is changed as follows;

Spoiler: show

function getYouLessBlock(device, idx) {
this.html = '';
if (device['Name'] === 'Electra Meter') {
if ($('div.block_' + idx).length > 0) {
allblocks[idx] = true;
}
var blockValues = [
{
icon: 'fas fa-bolt',
idx: idx + '_1',
title: device['Name'],
value: number_format(device['CounterToday'].split(' ')[0], settings['units'].decimals.kwh),
unit: settings['units'].names.kwh
},
{
icon: 'fas fa-bolt',
idx: idx + '_2',
title: language.energy.energy_totals + ' ' + device['Name'],
value: number_format(device['Counter'], settings['units'].decimals.kwh),
unit: settings['units'].names.kwh
}
];
if (typeof(device['Usage']) !== 'undefined') {
blockValues.push({
icon: 'fas fa-bolt',
idx: idx + '_3',
title: device['Name'],
value: number_format(device['Usage'], settings['units'].decimals.watt),
unit: settings['units'].names.watt
})
}
createBlocks(blockValues, device);
return ['', false];
}
if (device['Name'] === 'Gas Meter') {
if ($('div.block_' + idx).length > 0) {
allblocks[idx] = true;
}
var blockValues = [
{
icon: 'fas fa-fire',
idx: idx + '_1',
title: device['Name'],
value: number_format(device['CounterToday'].split(' ')[0], settings['units'].decimals.kwh),
unit: 'm3'
},
{
icon: 'fas fa-fire',
idx: idx + '_2',
title: language.energy.energy_totals + ' ' + device['Name'],
value: number_format(device['Counter'], settings['units'].decimals.kwh),
unit: 'm3'
}
];
if (typeof(device['Usage']) !== 'undefined') {
blockValues.push({
icon: 'fas fa-fire',
idx: idx + '_3',
title: device['Name'],
value: number_format(device['Usage'].split(' ')[0], settings['units'].decimals.kwh),
unit: 'm3'
})
}
createBlocks(blockValues, device);
return ['', false];
}
}

The only ugly part, is that I also use ".decimals.kwh" in the gasmeter part; but this works for me
