run Linux command from a mm2 module

@mykle1 you didn’t need to do this

var results = stdout;

Just use stdout as the variable name in the console log and sendsocketnotification

Every wasted instruction adds to the pgm size, and CPU cycles used, which could be applied somewhere else.

Also makes maintenance harder cause u might not remember why you did something.

Yes sir. Duly noted. And thanks for the instruction. I try to retain all the tidbits that are given but I find myself having to relearn much of what I thought I already knew. Can you say, “Alzheimers?” :-)

Thanks again.

I guess I celebrated a little prematurely. Yes, I can see the data in the terminal and send it to the module.js file. However, I am unable to convert it into usable data, such as an array of objects. I’ve tried all evening with no luck. The closest I’ve gotten is single object that contains all the data:

0:
stdout:"nouveau-pci-0100↵Adapter: PCI adapter↵fan1:        1170 RPM↵temp1:        +43.0°C  (high = +95.0°C, hyst =  +3.0°C)↵                       (crit = +105.0°C, hyst =  +5.0°C)↵                       (emerg = +135.0°C, hyst =  +5.0°C)↵↵coretemp-isa-0000↵Adapter: ISA adapter↵Core 0:       +46.0°C  (high = +83.0°C, crit = +99.0°C)↵Core 1:       +41.0°C  (high = +83.0°C, crit = +99.0°C)↵Core 2:       +46.0°C  (high = +83.0°C, crit = +99.0°C)↵Core 3:       +38.0°C  (high = +83.0°C, crit = +99.0°C)↵↵f71858fg-isa-0a00↵Adapter: ISA adapter↵+3.3V:        +3.31 V  ↵3VSB:         +3.30 V  ↵Vbat:         +3.20 V  ↵fan1:        1910 RPM↵fan2:        1069 RPM↵fan3:           0 RPM  ALARM↵temp1:        +34.5°C  (high = +70.0°C, hyst = +60.0°C)↵temp2:        +29.5°C  (high = +100.0°C, hyst = +85.0°C)↵temp3:        +36.4°C  (high = +100.0°C, hyst = +85.0°C)↵↵"

Using this:

getTerminal: function(url) {
      var self= this;
//      exec("sensors", (err, stdout, stderr) => console.log(stdout));
      exec("sensors").stdout.on('data', function(stdout) {
      //console.log(JsonConvert.SerializeObject(stdout));

    var s = stdout;
   var parts = s.split(':');
   var jobj = {};
   for(i=0;i < parts.length;i+=2)
   {
      jobj[parts[i]]=parts[i+1];
   }
   console.log(JSON.stringify(jobj));

I’m stuck. haha. I am grateful for any advice.

Peace!

@mykle1 let me see what I can do.
Will be tomorrow.

You can use Regular Expression for getting matched text with pattern.

var s = stdout
var fan1 = new RegExp("fan1\:\s+([0-9]+ RPM)")
var fan1_found = s.match(fan1)
console.log(fan1_found, fan1_found[1])

Not tested in real PC, so there could be a mistake.

@sean

First, thank you for your input. I do appreciate it.

Adding your suggestion results in an uncaught exception. . . TypeError: Cannot read property ‘1’ of null
Using your suggestion and taking out the “[1]” results in an array with a single object

@mykle1
null means not found. Maybe my regular espression pattern was wrong. As I wrote, it was not tested.
However if you find proper expression pattern, it will return matched string. Google it about regular expression. That is a standard way to search or replace text by pattern in most of program languages.

@sean

ok thank you. This seems like a good place to start.

Thanks! Anything you can offer will be much appreciated.

This what I have, and sent to the module.js
