MMM-Domoticz-ext: interact with Domoticz

I’ll have a look at the requests and zero state bug later this week or this weekend. Can you describe them zero state bug in more detail? Is it that when the value is zero the gauge is not displayed (correctly)?
-
@goedh452 I think that for both me and possibly @najtram we really want to have options which you haven’t built into your code.
So, just speaking for me, the zero bug isn’t really a bug, but I want the gauge to start with zero as the bottom anti-clockwise, as I don’t want to display negative values only positive values, as @najtram shows in his figure
I have got the same display of the gauge by change line 933:MMM-Domoticz-ext.js:933: centerZero: true,
to:
MMM-Domoticz-ext.js:933: centerZero: false,
It would nice to have an option to choose where zero would be, and possibly a number of other options around size. But would this just make it too complex and should I be using a different tool rather than MagicMirror?
So having discovered Dashticz I am wondering whether I wouldn’t be better off using Dashticz as a lot of the information I want to display comes directly from Domoticz.
-
Thanks for the explanation. I’ll make some modifications and let you now.
There are several options for the gauge, but they I didn’t implement it in such a way that they can be set in the config. For instance line thicknesses, etc.
Dashticz is also a good option. In some ways it is more flexible, but in other ways not. But I would definitely give it a try!

The “problem” with the centerZero value is relative.
I tried the gaugeEnergyMinValue in the config.js and assumed this should do the trick. (So with a min value of 0 or -1 and a max value of 3000).That didn’t work. So somehow I’m not able to point out what the bug is, but I expected it to work diffrently because of the gaugeEnergyMinValue.
My solution was exactly as @steps39 described in his previous post.
And about the gas flame, I’m also not sure, but maybe a default replacement for default text? So water to a water sybol, gas to a flame, etc. But this is not a big issue, I’m already used to it like this. Looks nice!

Symbols are unicode symbols in the names of the domoticz devices…
eg: Unicode Character “⚇” (U+2687)
Just edit the devicename in Domoticz…
-
I made some changes to the code:
-
When min value for the gauge is < 0 then 0 is centered. Otherwise zero is not centered.
-
Made the config for utility gauges much more flexible
It is now possible to set config options for each individual gauge, including width, line width, marker width and marker color. Also a symbol of font awesome can be used.
Please download the latest code from GitHub. You will also have to modify the config file. I updated the readme accordingly. My config for utilities is now:
utilities: { utilityLabel: "Gas - Water - Licht", showLabel: true, devices: [ { idx: "304", deviceHeader: "Elektriciteit", counterTodayLabel: "Vandaag", gaugeMinValue: -3000, gaugeMaxValue: 3000, gaugeAppendText: "Watt", gaugeWidth: 200, lineWidth: 16, markerWidth: 16, markerColor: "#F4D03F" }, { idx: "329", deviceHeader: "Gas", useHeaderSymbol: true, headerSymbol: "fire", counterTodayLabel: "Vandaag", gaugeMaxValue: 25, gaugeAppendText: "m³", }, { idx: "1614", deviceHeader: "Water", useHeaderSymbol: false, headerSymbol: "water", counterTodayLabel: "Vandaag", gaugeMaxValue: 1500, gaugeAppendText: "liter", } ], },
Which results in:

@goedh452 said in MMM-Domoticz-ext: interact with Domoticz:
Great work! Small detail… The Watt vs the kWh? Where did this option go?
See screenshot.
Also a minor detail. The font used for Watt, and Today, isn’t the default font the MMM uses. Is there a reason for not using that default font?
Again, thanks for your great work!
-
You are right. I overlooked that. I added an option ‘counterTodayAppendText’ which defaults to ‘kWh’. So you can set it yourself in the config or leave it a ‘kWh’. Latest code is on GitHub.

These are great improvements!
-kWh is working
-Font is working partially. Actual usage is MM-font, but daily totals still looks like Arial…
