Field Label SensorID and spaghetti

JeeLet

hello
I'm trying to understand how the labels of the sensors are managed by the widgets.

In my example in the image, is very messy,
the top widget includes a relay command
and the door contact.
It works I can control the relay, but also the state of the contact
(or to have also several door contacts in my widget )

I only want to have the status of my door contact in a widget, a visualization of its status, but not to control it.

I played with the names of the labels, but nothing works

an idea ?

@jeelet if you like to update the name of the control, include custom name in labels of the field.

in field details:

labels:
  name: My Relay

in widget

update Name Key as labels.name

please create a feature request in GitHub repository to show a read-only button.

"Please create a feature request in the GitHub repository to display a read only button."?

I don't know how to do that, it's too far for me

JeeLet

I can't figure out how
field details:
labels: --> name: My Relay ???

in the file Field Details
"...
fieldId: V_STATUS
name: Relay
metricType: binary
....
labels:
ms_node_id: '32'
ms_sensor_id: '3'
ms_type: '2'
ms_type_string: V_STATUS
..."
And the file Wideget Yaml
".....
resource:
filters:
metricType: binary
labels_name: relay
limit: 10
nameKey: name
type: field
tableView: true
type: switch_button
.."

good stop for tonight, see you tomorrow.

@jeelet

I don't know how to do that, it's too far for me

np, I will create an issue

@jeelet said in Field Label SensorID and spaghetti:

I can't figure out how

edit the field details and add new label name: My Relay

Example:

Sorry but "Update Resource" is not found

@jeelet

Sorry but "Update Resource" is not found

I took the screenshot from different widget
Please update Name Key as labels.name

If you like to use custom name, you should include a label ignore_name: true

JeeLet

YAML View is good

Edit Widget Settings

 resource:
    filters:
      metricType: binary
      name: relay
    limit: 10
    nameKey: labels.name
    type: field
  tableView: true
  type: switch_button

Field Details

..  
odeId: '32'
sourceId: '3'
fieldId: V_STATUS
name: relay
metricType: binary
...
labels:
  ignore_name: 'true'
  ms_node_id: '32'
  ms_sensor_id: '3'
  ms_type: '2'
  ms_type_string: V_STATUS
  name: relay
  ...

beautiful , working cella

I'll put the explanation in writing

Thanks a lot jkandasa

JeeLet

the updated tutorial sheet

an example for the relay is put in picture,
but it's the same for the door sensor.
so in red and pink the elements to add.
in green it's the MySensors sketch that puts them together by itself
the important part so that the name is not changed

" jkandasa@ you like to use custom name, you should include a label "

ignore_name: true

well the continuation

@jeelet No need to update both name and labels.name, you can use either.

if you use name, you should add labels.ignore_name: 'true'
otherwise you can use the labels.name directly

In the Widgets the options arrive at a speed too fast for my little brain, I can follow, but it's superhuman

Here is a picture of the new options: texte du lien

two questions:
what value to write in the

Timestamp Key (what is it?)
and the
Payload

in the SendPayload
the name "true" can be changed ?

it's how to have a state, a return of state of a button which changes of color.
Red : default
Orange : On
Blue : Off

is there someone who can help you with the Documentation ?
how to set up MyController !

Nice work

(for information, next week I will be absent)

JeeLet

my last words may be confusing

the picture idea texte du lien

a button that takes several color states
(an idea of how difficult it is, it's up to you, and there are surely more important things to do)

yes as you are in Widgets it is the right time to do it?

jkandasa

@jeelet

Timestamp Key (what is it?)

Timestamp Key used to display Last Seen in the panel.

Example:

in field, it can be current.timstamp
in node, it can be lastSeen

in the SendPayload
the name "true" can be changed ?

Yes, you can send anything you want and your node should support for that value
for buttons use Toggle Switch or Button Switch, gives better intraction

it's how to have a state, a return of state of a button which changes of color.
Red : default
Orange : On
Blue : Off

You can not change the button color in off state. it is applicable only for on state and for now it is linked with UI framework, so supports only four types

is there someone who can help you with the Documentation ?

for now I do not see much contribution from the world. I believe we will get it soon.

(for information, next week I will be absent)

enjoy your time

In MyController, MySensors plugin supports acknowledgement, hence state can not change if there is no acknowledgement received.

In MyController, you can set retry count to reattempt to send the payload again.

hello jkandasa

The Relay Controls with MyC work well.
switch ON/OFF button perfect

I have added to my sketch the function to turn off the relays when the arduino is restarted.
"digitalWrite(PIN_RELAY_1, RELAY_OFF);"

and add also

"send(msg.set(CHILD_ID_RELAY_1==HIGH ? 1 : 0), true);"
to return the information to MyController

But in my widget the status remains ON, while the Relay is OFF

it's an error in my sketch and I have misconfigured my widget ?

Thanks

jkandasa

@jeelet in your sketch add wait(300); after send(...)
and seems some error in your msg.set command,

I do not know your sketch, This may not be right solution, hope it should work
send(msg.set(digitalRead(PIN_RELAY_1)==HIGH ? 1 : 0));,

JeeLet

yes yes I saw my mistake after posting

Setup ()
send(msg.set(CHILD_ID_RELAY_1?false:true), true);
or
send(msg.set(digitalRead(PIN_RELAY_1)==HIGH ? 1 : 0));

the 2 possibilities work

at reboot of the Arduino it is functional .
the status of my relay changes well
thanks
sorry for the inconvenience

jkandasa

@jeelet no problem, good to know that it works for you
