read csv-data and put it in an array

[Perlchamp]

great, thanks !
to your information:
there are NO semikolons in your posted code. within them it goes !

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp end of line ; are not required… I cut/pasted that code out of the running module

[Perlchamp]

without i have a black screen, with everythings fine.
another information:
age must be +1 but i think i will solve this alone. if not i’m too stuipid for this all :-)
so i can create my table now. but i see:
people who has birthday the same day:
date should be displayed once, and the names in the same , separated by

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp ok, I think you can fix those… age is a date diff()… add to results

edit: age needs more work that just number… because they were comparing MONTH, but age was exact days.

so I change my bd to may, but TODAY I am 68… in may i WILL BE 69 (in the future)
so if TODAY or before, do NOT add one, if tomorrow or after (in the month) add 1

[Perlchamp]

i think, too. thanks very much, sam. I don’t know how to thank you Thank you very much !
you’re great !
and it is up to you whether you publish this module. I will not adorn myself with foreign feathers!

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp its not my module… its yours…

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp see how interesting ‘just a birthday list’ can be! and u still have styles to apply etc

[Perlchamp]

I do not think so. I could never answer questions about any problems …
i did:

... age='+(person.age + 1);

the styles you could get from me, no problem. it’s just fair, isn’t it ?

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp should be wrong for people with birthday yesterday

[Perlchamp]

ah, oooook … hm. shooted to fast. but let me figured out by myself, cause i don’t wonna feel like a baby … i think if-statements and moment() could be helpfully.

[Perlchamp]

general question:
is there something like “print”? (for debugging) or have i use innerText or innerHTML or Log.log ? … to display something on screen ?

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp Log.log only

did u see my chat message about fixing a bug in the MMM-Logging module

[Perlchamp]

i will have a look on it, though MERCI !

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp one other thing, u need to start a timer for when the month changes, when the timer expires, send a CONFIG message to the node_helper and it will send the latest birthdays list and everything will recalculate

[Perlchamp]

hi sam, yes i thought about. in the moment this is the actually file, though there is code annotate and at the wrong place, … just so you don’t wonder … :

and thanks agaibn for your time …

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp awesome…

[Perlchamp]

thanks :-)
i although thought about to include a template, but first i want to figure out the html-stuff and the if … than -statements (people the same day, date passed, and so on …), but you see i’m on fire right now …

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp cool… i did the age correction

[Perlchamp]

cool too :-) , so you still burn, too :-))

[Perlchamp]

hi sam, i know that the code of table is working (in testmodule). but can’t get objects in there. did look in dev-widow, but looks fine. in the terminal-window i see that objects have been handed over (node to module.js). this is the code for the body of the table:

	    // create TBODY section with day names
	    var tBody = document.createElement("tBody");
	    tBody.className = "tbody";
	    tBody.id = "birthday-tbody";
	    
	    for(var birthday of Object.keys(this.active_birthdays)) {
		for(var person of this.active_birthdays[birthday]) {
				
		    //var m = document.createElement('div');
				
		    // create looped row section
		    var bodyTR = document.createElement("tr");
		    bodyTR.className = "tr-body";
		    bodyTR.id = "birthday-tr-body";

		    var bodyTDimage = document.createElement("td");
		    bodyTDimage.className = "td-image";
		    bodyTDimage.id = "birthday-td-image";
		    bodyTDimage.innerHTML = birthday;

		    var bodyTD = document.createElement("td");
		    bodyTD.className = "td-body";
		    bodyTD.id = "birthday-td-body";
		    bodyTD.innerHTML = person.name + "<span class=\"age-span\">" + person.age + "</span>";
		    				
		    //m.innerText = birthday + ' ' + person.name + ' age=' + person.age;
		    //wrapper.appendChild(m);
		    
		    bodyTR.appendChild(bodyTDimage);
		    bodyTR.appendChild(bodyTD);
		    tBody.appendChild(bodyTR);
		    wrapper.appendChild(tBody);
		    
		}
	    }

what did i make wrong ?
