Dashticz - General Discussions

[robgeerts]

Oh, but I mean the security panel from Domoticz. When you click on the 'security panel switch', it shows a page with the security panel.

Added to my todolist!

It seems the nzbget and the traffic add-ons are deleted? In the older versions I see some settings for this, but no documentation for it for the v2. Is that right?

Traffic is still working, nzbget isn't, did not work well at the time, wil fix this later!

[robgeerts]

NEW VERSION!
- Switch from SuperSlides to Swiper-plugin.
- Smaller 'fullweather' blocks (less padding)
- MoonPhase-image (@wizjos posted a howto earlier)
- Hide stop button for blinds


Fixes:

The new screen button has a little deviation in the selection on the + button. Only a part of the button is clicable (possibly some css error with margin or padding?)

For me it's jumping 1 number instead of 0.5. +:hover style is strange too, when I move mouse over button it's always changing. +icons are flashing

Manual merge request:

main.js, line 299/300
// $('#npTitle').fadeIn('slow');
// audio.pause();

Another thing i noticed is that the function to change the background isn't working anymore.

+look what I found:

Code: Select all

    blocks[136] = {}
    blocks[136]['width'] = 6;
    blocks[136]['title']  = 'Thuis'  
    blocks[136]['icon']   = 'fa-home'

This is a virtual switch. If I name it 'Thuis' it gives 'aanwezig' as status. If I leave it, obviously it gets the Domoticz name. In my case 'VirtualPresence'.
The first is the prevered state. But , I it does not show the set icon in that case (see screenshot).

Well, i had one exception for another user wich had a switch named Thuis. Will change this!

Removed that exception. Can you let me know what you see now? Then I use that as a starting point to fix this.



To change swipe-effect, add this variable to config.js:

Code: Select all

var _SCREENSLIDER_EFFECT = 'slide'; //'slide' or 'fade' or 'cube' or 'coverflow' or 'flip'

To hide stop buttons add to config.js:

Code: Select all

blocks[106] = {}
blocks[106]['hide_stop'] = true;

[madrian]

1, Think on something.
2, Rob already fixed/implemented it.



edit:

(swiper) is so BAD ASS. It was worth the change.

@robgeerts: Nice moon... Let's wait till it's full
One thing though, could it be the switching between screens with the arrow keys has vanished (or is this another new setting)?

Thanks!

Just pushed a fix for this

Remark in about the latest version (and in general).

In this latest version the moon phase and other facts about the moon's whereabouts are disclosed . However, I noticed something that could perhaps be something of a 'spoiler' when your language is not english.

Some blocktypes are filtered out by their distinct name -which is language sensitive- and therefore will not produce the nice icons you have if your language IS NOT english. I'm referring to this section in blocks.js:

Code: Select all

blocktypes.Name = {}
blocktypes.Name['Rain Expected'] = { icon: 'fa fa-tint', title: '<Data>', value: '<Name>' }
blocktypes.Name['Rain expected'] = { icon: 'fa fa-tint', title: '<Data>', value: '<Name>' }
blocktypes.Name['Regen mm/uur'] = { icon: 'fa fa-tint', title: '<Data>', value: '<Name>' }
blocktypes.Name['Regen verwacht'] = { icon: 'fa fa-tint', title: '<Data>', value: '<Name>' }
blocktypes.Name['Regen Verwacht'] = { icon: 'fa fa-tint', title: '<Data>', value: '<Name>' }
blocktypes.Name['Maanfase'] = { icon: 'fa fa-moon-o', title: '<Data>', value: '<Name>' }

For all those who's language is different from english or dutch, here (and perhaps in other sections of this file) is where the icons and data-layout for blocks with certain names is defined.

If your device has a name other then the abovementioned you will not see the icons as defined above, nor will you see the data layout as defined here.

For instance my 'rain expected' device-title in dutch led me to believe at first glance that there was rain to be expected. So I changed the title in config.js from 'rain expected' to 'rain expectation' (in dutch).
After I changed this in config.js this block changed from telling me the expectation to a simple 'on' status. Only after adding an extra line in blocks.js

Code: Select all

blocktypes.Name['Regenverwachting'] = { icon: 'fa fa-tint', title: '<Data>', value: '<Name>' }

the correct information displayed again ('regenverwaching' is the title I gave this block in config.js).

Now there is a new blocktype introduced (Maanfase) which translates to moonphase. If you're english (or from another country) you will probably not name your moonphase device 'Maanfase'.

So, in order to get your blocks right, you might want to add some lines to this file for your specific situation, being it a language issue or a naming (config.js) issue.

I hope this helps

Just pushed a fix for this

Streamaudio needs little fix too, audio.pause() is at wrong line. For some reason if it is before the statements, it won't work good.

Video about the problem with fix:

[EdwinK]

Together with @robgeerts I've created the possibility to read Wunderground's moonphase data. It will be released in the upcoming version...

moonphase.PNG
I'll try to explain what is needed

At first you need a LUA script to read the data from Wunderground. Don't forget to fill in the right values for your situation!
You also may want to change the dutch description of the different moon phases (8x) like 'volle maan':

Video about the problem with fix:

Thats weird, because in the if you first set it to play (if playing), and then to pause?

When you change the channel it must pause (even if it was playing), for two reasons:

1, iOs bug: it won't load next source. Best is to pause playing and let user to click on play again.
2, You are a playing a station, but you want to tune to another: you don't want to listen/load all channels while you clicking on next/prev.

In short: while changing channel, let pause the stream in all cases, even if was playing.

Another weird issue on iPad/Safari (iOS 9.3.5) with full screen version. - can you please check on your wife's iPad?

If you add Dashticz to Home Page (via Add to Home Page from Safari) -> to enable full screen: no sound at all.

Even a simple button is not working:
buttons.radio = {image: 'img/radio_on.png', title: 'Radio', url: 'http://stream.musicfm.hu:8000/musicfm.mp3'}

The popup shows with the classic gray cube and a play button, when you click on in it shows Live Stream...then loads forever. No sound. Same for Stream Audio player.

If you open Dashticz from Safari, then it's working. From Chrome too.

'Does ../tmp/Moon.tmp exists?

Yes, I even triple checked it. Just to be sure I put in the full path to the Moon.tmp file, '../var/packages/domoticz/scripts/lua/tmp/Moon.tmp', checked the permissions of that file (777). My Rain.tmp uses the same path (different file, of course) and that is working. It has to have something to do with permissions, but can't figure it out now. And since I'm now working on it for about 8 hours, going to bed, and will think more tomorrow.

Hmmm, a thought on that: have you checked the output from a direct call to Wunderground (eg.: in a putty session issueing the same command as the script would)?

Just one more info: saving a raw stream url for testing purpose to the Home Screen and then open: working. So something is with Dashticz, but I can't find the bug.
