read csv-data and put it in an array

[Perlchamp]

@sdetweil said in read csv-data and put it in an array:

moment(birthday,‘DD.MM’)

sorry, doesn’t work. blackscreen. if i change back (my post) css is addressed. i didn’t change the jet = part. i think, something’s wrong with the cerateEl function, but you know i’m not an expert.but to control. here is my code :

for(var birthday of Object.keys(this.active_birthdays)) {
		    for(var person of this.active_birthdays[birthday]) {
		    				
			// create looped row section
			var bodyTR = this.createEl('tr', "birthday-tr-body", "TR-BODY", tBody, null);

			let now = moment();
			let entrie = moment(birthday,"DD.MM");
			
			if(this.config.dimmEntries) {				
			    entrie = moment(birthday,'DD.MM');
			}
			
			// delete leading 0 and month
			var bd = "";
			
			if(birthdays_seen[birthday] == undefined) {
			    bd = (birthday.startsWith("0")? birthday.substring(1): birthday).split('.')[0];
			    //var imageTD = this.createEl('td', null, "TD-IMAGE".concat(entrie.isBefore(now)?"_DIMMED":'', bodyTR, bd);
			    var imageTD = this.createEl("td", null, "TD-IMAGE", bodyTR, bd);
			    //var nameTD = this.createEl("td", null, "TD-BODY".concat(entrie.isBefore(now)?"_DIMMED":'', bodyTR, person.name);
			    var nameTD = this.createEl("td", null, "TD-BODY", bodyTR, person.name);
			    this.createEl("span", null, "TD-AGE", nameTD, " ");						
			    
			    // needs class for width
			    //var spanTDo = this.createEl("span", null, "TD-AGE".concat(entrie.isBefore(now)?"_DIMMED":'', nameTD, person.age);
			    var spanTDo = this.createEl("span", null, "TD-AGE", nameTD, person.age);
			}
			else{
			    // add a break
			    this.createEl("br", null , null , spanTDo, null);
			    // add a span with name
			    //var nameTD = this.createEl("span", null, "TD-BODY".concat(entrie.isBefore(now)?"_DIMMED":'',spanTDo, person.name);
			    var nameTD = this.createEl("span", null, "TD-BODY", spanTDo, person.name);
			    // add a span with age
			    //var spanTD = this.createEl("span", null, "TD-AGE".concat(entrie.isBefore(now)?"_DIMMED":'', spanTDo, person.age);
			    var spanTD = this.createEl("span", null, "TD-AGE", spanTDo, person.age);

@Perlchamp ah well. both work here… your latest and mine produce the same results

your output

date	Name	age
12	Sam 69
2	Frank 81
Sue81
5	mary 65
10	eee EEEEE 51
16	fff FFFFF 8
ggg GGGGG32
27	hhh HHHHH 18

my output

date	Name	age
12	Sam 69
2	Frank 81
Sue81
5	mary 65
10	eee EEEEE 51
16	fff FFFFF 8
ggg GGGGG32
27	hhh HHHHH 18

[Perlchamp]

what does that mean? but you don’t use css, do you ? YES, but didn’t you see, that i have annotate the

.concat(entrie.isBefore(now)?"_DIMMED":''

lines in the code, i posted ? without entrie.isBefore … css is addressed, with it’s not addressed

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp I stepped thru and watched it change from with dimmed and without

[Perlchamp]

sorry for nerving, sam. i would like to understand the code. where is the part in which the name and age of people with the same birthday are collected/combined ?

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp I’ll use you last code post

// loop thru all the brithdays found in the file that match this month, one at a time

@Perlchamp my code had

					let now = moment()		
					let entrie=now
				    if(this.config.dimmEntries) {				
						entrie = moment(birthday,'DD.MM')
					}
					var bd = "";	

[Perlchamp]

thanks a lot. i will study this …

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp make that one fix and then my code will work too

[Perlchamp]

update !
i tried, but how should i do this ?
i was in the dev. didn’t helped me. it’s , how said, the part

.concat(entrie.isBefore(now)?"_DIMMED":''

with => blackScreen
without => working (formatted => css).

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp have to edit the source code, then reload the browser page, cannot edit in debugger

let now = moment()

see the last line of the console

black screen means syntax error in some modulename.js, click on the line number and it will take you to that line in the code … note the concat(… is missing its right paren ‘)’

[Perlchamp]

thank you very much. yes i need more expirience of debugging. it’s my second day i use it, sorry sam. AND MANY THANKS.

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp Make an error, take out a comma, or ’

reload the page, f5

put part of ht module name in the filter field of the console

find the error message
click the filename/line to the right

[Perlchamp]

ok, will collect some experience …

[Perlchamp]

ok, the blacksreen is gone, works, but no css

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp that comes up for me
Copied directly. Will send my module file.

[Perlchamp]

ok, thanks

[sdetweil]

@Perlchamp see the expanded html on left
