.txt file include

[dominic]

@strawberry-3.141 Hi :) it works :)
i don´t know why, but it works. I have reseted the system and after taht ist works.
Thank you very mutch.

i want to display not all the text out of the .txt file.
Do you know what i must change in the node_helper.js?

[strawberry 3.141]

i think this depends on the content of the file

[dominic]

@strawberry-3.141 in the file are values from a dht22 temp.sensor.
but i only need the values for Humidity = xx and Temperature =xx.

is there any why to get only this values ?

[dominic]

@yawns Danke für deinen Tipp. Aber es läuft nun.
Habe aber nun ein anderes Problem ;)
gibt es eine Möglichkeit, die asugabe der txt Datei zu beregenzen, so dass mir nur bestimmte Werte angezeigt werden.
In der Datei stehen Werte von einem dht22 sensor und ich möchte nur diese werte ausgeben ohne die den anderen INhalt.

[strawberry 3.141]

are these all in seperate lines?

if so then you could check in a for loop if there is the word humidity or temperature otherwise ignore the line

[dominic]

@strawberry-3.141
No. There is only one line.

[strawberry 3.141]

can you please upload your txt file i have no clue how it looks like, so we can help you out with that

[dominic]

@strawberry-3.141
Raspberry Pi wiringPi DHT22 reader www.lolware.net Data not good, skip Data not good, skip Data not good, skip Humidity = 47.10 % Temperature = 24.50 *C .

This is the contetn of the .txt file. And its all in one line.

@strawberry-3.141 Hi, do you have any idea?

[strawberry 3.141]

getDom: function(){
		var wrapper = document.createElement("div");
		if(this.dataFile){
                        var humidityRegExp = /Humidity = (.*?) %/ig;
                        var humidity = humidityRegExp.exec(this.dataFile)[1];

                        var temperatureRegExp = /Temperature = (.*?) *C/ig;
                        var temperature = temperatureRegExp.exec(this.dataFile)[1];
			wrapper.innerHTML = "Humidity: " + humidity + "% and Temperature: " + temperature + "°C";
		} else {
			wrapper.innerHTML = "No data";
		}
		return wrapper;
	}

@strawberry-3.141 HI Thanks. Sorry but, where do I insert the code?
I´m new in this…

[strawberry 3.141]

in sensor.js you have the function getdom replace it with this

[dominic]

@strawberry-3.141 Yeah :) Thanks :)

@strawberry-3-141 great solution from you.
I want to use your solution not for showing Temperatur/ Humidity rather for showing alerts from sensors.

The content from my txt is for example:

Meldung Stellmotor Antrieb blockiert
Zone Nebenantrieb
Zeit 6.Juni 2018 10:40
+++ENDE DER DATEI+++

I change the sensor.js:

Module.register("Home-Status",{
	defaults: {
		updateInterval: 0.5 * 60 * 1000 //reads the file every 30 seconds
	},

	start: function(){
		this.sendSocketNotification("START", this.config);
	},

	socketNotificationReceived: function(notification, payload) {
		if(notification === "DATA"){
			this.dataFile = payload;
			this.updateDom();
		}
	},

	getDom: function(){
		var wrapper = document.createElement("div");
		if(this.dataFile){
                        var meldungRegExp = /Meldung = (.*?) /ig;
                        var meldung = meldungRegExp.exec(this.dataFile)[1];

                        var zoneRegExp = /Zone = (.*?) /ig;
                        var zone = zoneRegExp.exec(this.dataFile)[1];

			var zeitRegExp = /Zeit = (.*?) /ig;
			var zeit = zeitRegExp.exec(this.dataFile)[1];
			wrapper.innerHTML = "Meldung: " + meldung + " , Zone: " + zone + " , "Zeit: " + zeit" ;
		} else {
			wrapper.innerHTML = "No Data";
		}
		return wrapper;
	}
});

but it dosn´t work.
Firtst problem: my txt have no seperators like = or :
second probleme: my alert text (Meldung) contains of several words
third Problem: only the newest txt should be displayed. The Names from the txt files are for example 20180112090125.txt or 20185912085949.txt etc. It´s not possible to edit the incoming txt names. Best way is to automaticly delete the previous txt

I hope you can help me to Display " Meldung, Zone, Zeit" on my MagicMirror

Best regards

Sascha

@saschasp you can change your regular expressions to the following:
/Meldung (.*)/ig;, /Zone (.*)/ig; and /Zeit (.*)/ig;. This should help you displaying the data. For the problem with the newest file you need to do the following steps: Scan the directory, sort file list by highest number, read the first file.

Scan the directory https://nodejs.org/api/fs.html#fs_fs_readdir_path_options_callback

Sort the file names https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/sort

Read the file https://nodejs.org/api/fs.html#fs_fs_readfile_path_options_callback

Ok, i will try step by step.
Beginning with my first probleme:
The Output message (displayed on the mirror) is only displaying one word after the “identifyer-word”

identifyer "Meldung"
Stellmotor Antrieb blockiert
MagicMirror Display only Stellmotor
Antrieb blockiert is missing

The identifyer-wordsare Meldung Zone Zeit

The content from my txt:

Meldung Stellmotor Antrieb blockiert
Zone Nebenantrieb
Zeit 6.Juni 2018 10:40
+++ENDE DER DATEI+++

My edited sensor.js:

Module.register("Home-Status",{
	defaults: {
		updateInterval: 0.5 * 60 * 1000 //reads the file every 30 seconds
	},

	start: function(){
		this.sendSocketNotification("START", this.config);
	},

	socketNotificationReceived: function(notification, payload) {
		if(notification === "DATA"){
			this.dataFile = payload;
			this.updateDom();
		}
	},

	getDom: function(){
		var wrapper = document.createElement("div");
		if(this.dataFile){
                        var meldungRegExp = /Meldung (.*?) /ig;
                        var meldung = meldungRegExp.exec(this.dataFile)[1];


                        var zoneRegExp = /Zone (.*?) /ig;
                        var zone = zoneRegExp.exec(this.dataFile)[1];

			var zeitRegExp = /Zeit (.*?) /ig;
			var zeit = zeitRegExp.exec(this.dataFile)[1];
			wrapper.innerHTML = "Meldung: " + meldung + " Zone: " + zone + " Zeit: " + zeit;
		} else {
			wrapper.innerHTML = "No Data";
		}
		return wrapper;
	}
});

Result wich is displayed at MagicMirror:

Meldung:Stellmotor Zone:Nebenantrieb Zeit:6.Juni

@saschasp your regular expressens are different from the one i posted, use them and I’m sure it will work

hi,
sorry to be dragging up old posts, but im trying to get my mirror to display the contents of a txt file and i have it partly working… i have the contents displaying on my mirror but its all showing up on one line, how can i display it with each line break as in txt file?

thanks

[sdetweil]

@banbutcher you will have to replace the line feeds (\n) with html breaks (
)

[banbutcher]

hi again,

im after getting my script to update my txt file with the names of downloaded movies and tv series… how would i go about reading the title of the series and just having the title and info ie:

if title has S**E** in it then
filename - Archer S01E01pilot 1080p x265.mkv
desired result - Archer S01E01

else its a movie and just add movie name

i think this is the bit of code im to edit but i havent got it working :(

	getDom: function(){
		var wrapper = document.createElement("div");
		if(this.dataFile){
                        var meldungRegExp = /Meldung (.*?) /ig;
                        var meldung = meldungRegExp.exec(this.dataFile)[1];


                        var zoneRegExp = /Zone (.*?) /ig;
                        var zone = zoneRegExp.exec(this.dataFile)[1];

			var zeitRegExp = /Zeit (.*?) /ig;
			var zeit = zeitRegExp.exec(this.dataFile)[1];
			wrapper.innerHTML = "Meldung: " + meldung + " Zone: " + zone + " Zeit: " + zeit;
		} else {
			wrapper.innerHTML = "No Data";
		}
		return wrapper;
	}
});

thanks
