      @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.

        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

        Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

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

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

                          @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

                            Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

                              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

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

                              			var zeit = zeitRegExp.exec(this.dataFile)[1];
                              			wrapper.innerHTML = "Meldung: " + meldung + " Zone: " + zone + " Zeit: " + zeit;
                              		} else {

                              		}
                              		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

                                Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

                                  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

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

                                      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

                                        I think this is the regex u want

                                        /.*[S][(0-9)]+[E][(0-9)]+/

                                          that worked great…

                                          however, im a little bit stuck again… your expression works fine and return the correct result but only on the first line of the file and only if i remove the [1] from the end of line 5 of the code

                                          	getDom: function(){
                                          		var wrapper = document.createElement("div");
                                          		if(this.dataFile){
                                                                  var splitRegExp = /.*[S][(0-9)]+[E][(0-9)]+/ig;
                                                                  var split = splitRegExp.exec(this.dataFile)[1];
                                          
                                          			wrapper.innerHTML = split;
                                          		} else {
                                          			wrapper.innerHTML = "No Data";
                                          		}
                                          		return wrapper;
                                          	}
                                          

                                          do i need to stick it in some kind of loop? or am i reading the contents of file wrong?

                                          again thanks for your help :)

                                            @banbutcher is dataFile an array of filenames? then yes, you’ll need a loop.
                                            so, you are moving part of name a, to a new array
                                            then part of name b to the next slot in the array

                                            array.push(item)
                                            adds item to the end of the array

                                            name_of_array =[] initializes name_of_array to be an empty array

                                            then u will need to format the array of partial names

                                            var x = name_of_array.join(separator)
                                            will turn the array into x, a string with separator between the names
