[MMM-ValuesByNotification] Display the payloads of notifications with titles and icons

wishmaster270 · Oct 4, 2022, 2:44 PM

Just tested a view things.
If you like you can use font awesome icon instead of the title:

		{
			module: "MMM-ValuesByNotification",
			position: "top_left",
			config: {
                                updateInterval: 60,
                                reuseCount: 5,
				groups: [
					{
						items: [
							{
								notification: "POWERMETER_VALUES",
								//itemTitle: "Power",
								values: [
									{
										classes: "power",
										valueIcon: "fa fa-bolt",
										valueUnit: "W",
										jsonpath: "power",
									},
								]
							},
						]
					},
				]
			},
		},

custom.css:

.vbn .valueIcon.power {
  color: orange;
}

@wishmaster270 thanks I applied that instead.

Anyway to add some offset to the module to be aligned with the other modules on the left?

@Cr4z33
sorry i do not understand exactly what you mean

Cr4z33 · Oct 4, 2022, 3:24 PM

@wishmaster270 I wanted to move your module way more to the left so to align it with my other modules (Google Assistant, clock and Spotify).

However nevermind as I opted to have your module on top instead. ;)

@wishmaster270 sorry for bothering you again… :grinning_face_with_sweat:

What if I want no border?

Would I have to edit the module’s CSS or can I just add something to custom.css?

wishmaster270 · Oct 4, 2022, 3:35 PM

@Cr4z33
No problem.
Simply add

.vbn .groupWrapper {
  border-style: none;
  padding: 0px;
}

to your custom.css

Ps.: Try to never ever edit any files in the module directory (except mentioned in the documentation) as you will get problems with updates in the future otherwise!

@wishmaster270 exactly what I wanted thanks!

wishmaster270 · Oct 4, 2022, 3:47 PM

@Cr4z33
If you still want to move the content to the left you can try something like the following in your custom.css:

.vbn .groupWrapper {
  border-style: none;
  padding: 0px;
  margin-left: 20px;
}

.vbn .groupsWrapper, .vbn .groupWrapper, .vbn .itemsWrapper, .vbn .valueWrapper {
  justify-content: left;
  align-items: unset;
}

Hey, Tom - Trying to use this module to decode the json output by my weatherstation - Like https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/17396/json-request-module

What I’m getting from Command to notification module is:

WEATHERLINK {"data":{"did":"001D0A71573B","ts":1675287003,"conditions":[{"lsid":434637,"data_structure_type":1,"txid":1,"temp": 47.4,"hum":52.8,"dew_point": 31.0,"wet_bulb": 38.4,"heat_index": 46.4,"wind_chill": 47.4,"thw_index": 46.4,"thsw_index":null,"wind_speed_last":2.00,"wind_dir_last":31,"wind_speed_avg_last_1_min":2.62,"wind_dir_scalar_avg_last_1_min":6,"wind_speed_avg_last_2_min":2.81,"wind_dir_scalar_avg_last_2_min":358,"wind_speed_hi_last_2_min":5.00,"wind_dir_at_hi_speed_last_2_min":340,"wind_speed_avg_last_10_min":1.43,"wind_dir_scalar_avg_last_10_min":36,"wind_speed_hi_last_10_min":5.00,"wind_dir_at_hi_speed_last_10_min":336,"rain_size":1,"rain_rate_last":0,"rain_rate_hi":0,"rainfall_last_15_min":0,"rain_rate_hi_last_15_min":0,"rainfall_last_60_min":0,"rainfall_last_24_hr":0,"rain_storm":0,"rain_storm_start_at":null,"solar_rad":null,"uv_index":null,"rx_state":0,"trans_battery_flag":0,"rainfall_daily":0,"rainfall_monthly":0,"rainfall_year":1750,"rain_storm_last":4,"rain_storm_last_start_at":1674798601,"rain_storm_last_end_at":1675000860},{"lsid":434634,"data_structure_type":4,"temp_in": 79.4,"hum_in":20.5,"dew_point_in": 35.5,"heat_index_in": 77.4},{"lsid":434633,"data_structure_type":3,"bar_sea_level":30.125,"bar_trend":-0.013,"bar_absolute":29.660}]},"error":null}

yes, the weather station dumps a mess. :)

my current config for the values by notification is just the basics, but should be grabbing the “hum” value for testing:

		{
			module: "MMM-ValuesByNotification",
			position: "top_left",
			header: "Module-1",
			config: {
				groups: [
					{
						items: [
							{
								notification: "WEATHERLINK",
								itemTitle: "Item-1",
								values: [
									{
										valueTitle: "Value-1",
										jsonpath: "hum",
									},
								]
							},
						]
					},
				]
			},
		},

I get initally “NA” as a value, then it flips to “Undefined”

Any clue on what I’m doing wrong, or is the feed from the weather station needing more of a massage to be useful?

thanks!

@BKeyport Hi,
i formatted your output to understand the JSON structure you are using:

{
    "data": {
        "did": "001D0A71573B",
        "ts": 1675287003,

                "rain_storm_last": 4,
                "rain_storm_last_start_at": 1674798601,
                "rain_storm_last_end_at": 1675000860
            },
            {
                "lsid": 434634,
                "data_structure_type": 4,
                "temp_in": 79.4,
                "hum_in": 20.5,
                "dew_point_in": 35.5,
                "heat_index_in": 77.4
            },
            {
                "lsid": 434633,
                "data_structure_type": 3,
                "bar_sea_level": 30.125,
                "bar_trend": -0.013,
                "bar_absolute": 29.660
            }
        ]
    },
    "error": null
}

The hum value is part of the first element with index 0 of the conditions object which is part of the data object.
This results in a more advanced jsonpath…

		{
			module: "MMM-ValuesByNotification",
			position: "top_left",
			header: "Module-1",
			config: {
				groups: [
					{
						items: [
							{
								notification: "WEATHERLINK",
								itemTitle: "Item-1",
								values: [
									{
										valueTitle: "Value-1",
										jsonpath: "data.conditions[0].hum",
									},
								]
							},
						]
					},
				]
			},
		},

This config works out of the box ;-)

Edit:

If the order of the elements of conditions varies you can use

jsonpath: "data.conditions..hum"

This one selects the hum value of any element of conditions.
