Internet Monitor

[Mykle1]

@ronny3050 ok, I’m waiting for it to complete

[Mykle1]

I’ve been waiting for 34 minutes and nothing has happened. My console still reads:

[STREAMING] Now streaming realtime logs for [all] processes.

Am I supposed to do something? run MM with your module perhaps? You didn’t say

[Mykle1]

Well, I waited over and hour, staring at the console, and nothing happened since I ran:
pm2 flush
pm2 logs

Here is what I’ve been staring at:

pi@Pi3:~ $ pm2 flush
[PM2] Flushing /home/pi/.pm2/pm2.log
[PM2] Flushing
[PM2] /home/pi/.pm2/logs/mm-out-0.log
[PM2] /home/pi/.pm2/logs/mm-error-0.log
[PM2] Logs flushed
pi@Pi3:~ $ pm2 logs
[TAILING] Tailing last 10 lines for [all] processes (change the value with --lines option)
/home/pi/.pm2/pm2.log last 10 lines:
/home/pi/.pm2/logs/mm-out-0.log last 10 lines:

I tell you what I’d do before I tried it again… backup my sd card

Done. I made two backups of my SD card. One locally and one on my backup server. While that was going on I installed a fan on my Pi. I have spare parts lying around. Good little mini project while I waited for the backups. Now my Pi runs at 35 C, down from 60 C. Sweet.

[cowboysdude]

@Mykle1 That’s a great idea that I should probably do as well… adding the fan!!!

@ronny3050 thanks for a nice Monitor, i love the wifi indicator.

You asked for wishes for the Internet Monitor.
I have been looking in the code if it is possible to give te wifi indicators some color.
Making strength_full.png green, strength_almost yellow, strength_half orange and strength_non.png red. Would love to see this as an config option of in the my custom.css.

Is there a way to do this?

[Advokaten]

@pjkoeleman is this module working for you? I can’t get it to work :(

[pjkoeleman]

@Advokaten Yes it’s just working as discribed. Here is my part off config.js for the Internet Monitor.

{
  Module: 'internet-monitor',
  position: 'bottom_right',
  config: {
    type: 'minimal',
    maxTime: 10000,
    updateInterval: 120000,
    verbose: false,
    displayStrength: true,
    displaySpeed: false,
    strengthIconSize: 40,
    maxGaugeScale: 25
  }
},

Now I want to bring a little color to the wifi indicator.

[Advokaten]

@pjkoeleman Thank you! Using your config lines made it work somehow! I am too interested in changing color of the wi-fi strength png’s. I tried changing all the white levelColors without success. Don’t know what is turning the strength bars into a white color :( Anybody who could help us out? Thanks.

[ronny3050]

@pjkoeleman @Advokaten try changing type in config to type: '' from type: 'minimal'.
Also, thank you for the kind words! :)

[Advokaten]

@ronny3050 I’m sorry. I don’t understand if this made any difference other than it took some extra time to load the indicator. Is there a way to change colors in the css file now or what…? Sorry once more for being such a nublet and thank you for taking your time to do stuff like this!

[ronny3050]

@Advokaten @pjkoeleman Silly me, I am sorry, I thought you requested colors for the speed gauges, which are already there. As for colors for the wifi strength indicator, there are two ways:

1. CSS coloring (you have complete control over the colors)
2. Pre-made images with different colors (colors chosen by me).

I am sure 1 would be preferred. I will get back to you in a little bit with my progress on this. Thank you very much for suggesting this.

[cowboysdude]

Yes #1 preferred ;)

[ronny3050]

@cowboysdude Usually preferred = harder ;)

LOL yeah me too but for once thought I’d go the easier route…

[Advokaten]

@ronny3050 Option 1 would be quite amazing, yes! Another question, would it be possible to remove everything in the module except for the wi-fi indicator part, to make it smaller and quicker (maybe easier to configure for nubs like me)? Like remove all unnecessary files and coding. I’m afraid I’ll break it if I tinker with it lol.

[strawberry 3.141]

@ronny3050 you could achieve this with css3 filters

[ronny3050]

@Advokaten sure, I’ll clean it up :)

[ronny3050]

@strawberry-3.141 Hey bro, thanks for the heads up! I was going to go that route except not sure whether everyone’s raspberry browser supports css3.
