MMM-Page-Selector: A page switcher that can set positions of modules

[robiv8]

Yes that would be a great help and clearly arranged. Good idea!

What I meant by extra commas is:
Example Normal:

{
module: "currentweather",
position: "top_right",
config: {
long: "de",
location: "Beinstein",
locationID: "3220785",
appid: "08541acd123xxxxxxxxxxxxx"
}

For the MMM Page Selector:

{
"module": "weatherforecast",
"position": "bottom_center",
"pages": {"main": "bottom_right"},
"config": {
"locationID": "REMOVED",
"appid": "REMOVED"
}
},

So I have to use the extra commas for all modules and each line.
Example: “module”: “text” instead of module: “text”

And that with over 200 lines of text, woe if you are even wrong at one ;-)

And please do not consider this as a criticism, only as a small piece of thought if it is not easier solvable.

Here my current config that I’m building, works quite well.
These I will now equip with more modules and expand to up to 5 pages. But I need a lot of time because I have to check each module if all commons are set correctly.

[Veldrovive]

It shouldn’t be necessary to have quotes around everything. Does it error when you just use this?

{
    module: “weatherforecast”,
    position: “bottom_center”,
    pages: {main: “bottom_right”},
    config: {
        locationID: “REMOVED”,
        appid: “REMOVED”
    }
},

Also, I have implemented the method for setting up pages as I described above alongside the other method. The readme will be updated with full instructions on how it works. I will commit the changes to the repository soon.

[Veldrovive]

Ok, the new commit includes the changes. Just git pull and then the new method should be available.

[robiv8]

thanks for your support
I will implement it this week and report here.

[robiv8]

I just made a quick attempt with the first one of your code.
I’m slowly approaching the goal ;-).
I still have questions.
This is my code:

The first page looks good, but on the second page, the modules are shown above the other instead of 2 left 2 right.
main:

second:

This is how the modules (train schedule) should look like:

[Veldrovive]

I copied your config and it actually allowed me to catch a couple of bugs that I will be working to fix over the next few days. The main one that you are having trouble with stems from the fact that multiple modules with the same name are being used. I don’t know why I didn’t think about that during development, but it causes problems now. I’m going to fix that up and I’ll post again when it’s done. It’s a bit of a large change, however, so it probably won’t be done for at least 24 hours.

[robiv8]

Hey, just no hectic and stress.
Then I’m just the beta tester ;-)

What long matures will be good.
Thank you

[Veldrovive]

Ok, changes have been made and now the module is much more resilient.
The second method for setting up pages has become pretty powerful now, but that came with it becoming more complicated. I would suggest reading the readme section carefully before trying to implement it.
If you have any question, I am more than happy to clarify and edit the readme.

[robiv8]

Wow, that was fast.
Will it morning look at rest, and test.
But what I read so far looks like this for me:
First list all the modules as before.
Below that, under “pages:” and the page names, insert the module names with location.

And I have to give the modules a name (name:) which is then used in pages: for the position.

So roughly right?

Oh! One question:
How implement more then 1 module in exclusion?
