.MMM-Nest table.xsmall.table { font-size: 20px; line-height: 25px; }

I am impressed. This worked perfectly. By adding it to the custom.css I can change size and spacing by changing the px sizes. Many thanks.

I updated the css using edits from @j-e-f-f. The nest display looks closer to what the actual nest thermostat looks like.

Any chance on integrating the nest protect smoke detectors?

mochman

@pugsly Sure. What kind of info would you be looking for on it? From what I see on the API, we can read CO Alarm State, Smoke Alarm State, Battery Health, and some other things people probably don’t want to see.

What I’m thinking right now is putting a colored ring (like the one on the smoke detector) around the thermostat circle to indicate good, warning, or emergency status. Any ideas?

pugsly

Well, I have 3 of them so not sure how to display but I do like the colored ring based on status. There are also alerts that could be displayed as well.

I made a separate branch if you want to check it out. I’ll merge it after I run some more tests.

You are going to have to edit your Nest developer settings to allow read access to the “protect” in order for this to work. When you do that, you’ll need to run getToken.sh again to get a new token.

I gave you the option to use a visual representation, or a list representation. If you use visual, you have the choice to display your nest, protect, or both together.

Here are some of the ways it displays to you.

I can’t find the “Smoke is clearing” data or stuff like that, so it just shows if there is an alarm for smoke or carbon monoxide, or if your battery is low.

Please take a look and tell me what you think.

So I’m making modifications to support Nest Cams. The only catch is that the cameras have to be public. I can pull the calls and writing up a UI. It’s in my own github https://github.com/alberttwong/MMM-Nest and plan to do a PR soon.

mochman

@alberttwong That’s great! I don’t have a drop cam so I’m not really sure what information people would want to get from them.

alberttwong

So there seems to be some gotchas. Basically, the Nest API doesn’t help yet. In the meantime, you can get the Nest Camera working through MMM-iFrame with caveats (https://github.com/alberttwong/MMM-iFrame).

New here, about to start making mine. Have to wait until my raspberry pi gets here in a few days though. The module looks great, however, I was wondering if it is possible to add the function to adjust the temperature on it. Up/down arrows, change from A/C to heat, switch it off and so on.

Thanks! Hopefully I’ll have some information to provide soon.
