Simple(?) module to send a notification every x minutes?

[MMRIZE]

@UncleRoger
The module also implements “resume” method to reset timer, so if the module get shown, it may be reset.
But I’m not sure unless examining all three modules related.

@MMRIZE the sendnotification module implements both suspend and resume

[UncleRoger]

So a little more testing…

If the interval for BGSS is >= the interval for SN, BGSS never changes the image. That is, SN causes BGSS to be active so its timer should start and (assuming nothing else changes) it should switch pictures according to the set interval but it doesn’t.

If the interval for BGSS < the interval for SN, and BGSS is active, it changes the image as it should.

Suspending and resuming BGSS does reset its timer, but if it’s not suspended, and its interval is >= SN’s, then it doesn’t change the image.

@UncleRoger well there was a change I had to make to SN because pages was sending spurious resumes which caused timer resets

@sdetweil
I have the latest version. (I’ve also forked it to add a separate resetNotification but that’s not in place at the moment.)

Based on what I’ve read about setInterval, the two modules should not be interfering with each other and yet, they sure seem to be.

@UncleRoger
Can you share your forked version?

[sdetweil]

@UncleRoger you will need a module to record all the notifications so you can see what is happening

mmm-notifications I think

@UncleRoger
Can you share your forked version?

I’d love to, but I’m not sure how. I mean, it’s a couple tiny changes…

It’s here: https://github.com/Unclearogre/MMM-SendNotification

I should update the readme before trying to put it back in the main one.

@UncleRoger if you forked mine you can submit a pull request for me to include your changes
