Great work as always JK - I have just updated with no issues at all!

As expected the raspberry pi foundation have announced that they are ceasing production of 1Gb raspberry pi models. The falling price of ram on the open market and demand from users for more ram both contriubted to this action.

Now the entry level pi comes with 2Gb ram and has also seen a £10.00 price reduction to under £35.00 in the UK.

@jkandasa I think that instead of 'sensor' you could use 'source' as all data has to come from somewhere!

Variable vould become 'value' or 'info' or 'data'.

Just my thoughts on an early Sunday morning!

Just to wish all of you a happy holiday and good health in the new year!

2021 the year of MyController 2.0? - I can't wait

Great news that version 2.0 is soon in progress!!

I would like to see a more user focused product with many more guages 'out of the box' and colour options to fully customise the web interface, individual graph colour options, and more drag and click to setup the windows in the dashboard.
I strongly suggest you go to the my sensors site and visit all the 'other' controller sites to seek inspiration to take your next version to the top!

I think the automation rules/actions is far to annoying in its current state and a better way of getting something to happen based on conditions would be a bonus.
I'd prefer to keep the operations in one place on one page, that would help to start with!

It would be nice if we could also have the ability to add a video window to the dashboard pages. I use motioneye as cctv controller and would love to easily be able to add cameras from this to the mycontroller pages. All cameras are pi+camera and motion pi runs on a pi3 next to the mycontroller pi. An option to have a 'pop-up' video window on motion detect would also be nice to have.

Ability for dark mode display on timer or light sensor. Good for night time usage and also powersaving.

Ability to add floorplans for bulidings and surrounding area (gardens, outbuildings) etc with sensor locations and sensor status shown on there. Would then see at a glance which security sensor has triggered the alarm on the plan.

Ability to add photos similar to the above. Then taping or clicking on (for example) the lamp in the photo of the room would control that item.

Built in voice control - but probably a step too far for a controller, but maybe the ability to interface with another pi running voice recognition. This is very low on the list though.

Full support for 'ack' messages and better debugging of the system. Maybe some form of test page where each sensor can be interrogated and report back the result?

An automated installer! - I think that setting this all up puts a lot of people off even trying it,which is a shame. Add to that an updater script. These two things alone would improve usability to those who are put off by the current process!

Battery level graph on the dashboard. A must really.

Ability to zoom and pan the graphs within the dashboard environment. Would be probably more use on tablets, but with mouse would also work.

Easy implementation of min/max values and reporting.

Easy support for 'multi use' sensors. E.g. A motion sensor in my kitchen has various modes. Armed = send alarm on detection. Perimeter= Turn on kitchen lights on motion detection and leave on until no motion detceted for x minutes, but only if it is dark enough (that info is from another sensor). Off = Do nothing on sensor detection. Currently it is a pain to get this type of thing working.... which gives me the idae to be able to create a rule and then use that rule as a template for the next sensor/actuator by copying and changing the node/sensor/automation to suit, that would speed up setting things up!

I hope this will give you some thoughts to making an even better mycontroller in 2018!.......

Thank you for making and sharing mycontroller and making this all possible in the first place - Your support and talent is amazing!

Thank you!

Just to wish those who celebrate it a Happy Christmas and of course a Happy New Year to you all!

In a future release would it be possible to change the weather forecast symbols to better match the conditions. ATM I can't tell the difference between stable and sunny as they both use the sunny icon.

I suggest using the current 'cloudy' icon (sun & cloud) for 'stable' and use the 'double cloud' icon for cloudy weather.

You asked for suggestions so here's a couple for now....

1. Monitor and report network lan traffic bandwidth used (maybe with options to see different types of traffic eg tcp/http/udp etc....).

2. Get data for the number of packets sent/received by the nrf24l01+ attached to the pi.

Still, it's working well now and very useful to see this info!

typo in 4th command - missing 'o'

@jkandasa I'm in for a new version!!!

Just to wish those who celebrate it a Happy Christmas and of course a Happy New Year to you all!

Now available for download on the arduino web site.....

New version of ssh client/server for x64 x86 and arm is now available.

@jkandasa I'm in for a new version!!!

For those who use the IDE on local device and want to be on the latest version - tested with 1 sketch and no issues found.

For those who use PuTTY for SSH access there is a new release at their downloads page.....

As the title suggests - a new version is now released and so far testing it I have not encountered any issues with it....

@jkandasa I don't know if it might be related, but yesterday when rewiring my gateways I entered a condition where the GW was 'up' and showing last message count OK, but no update on any sensor graphs attached to that GW - I wonder if it is an issue between myc and the db as I assume all graph updates come from db?

The cure was to remove power from GW and then restore power. All seems OK after that....

@jkandasa Great stuff - another amazing new feature for V2.0!

@jkandasa Thanks, I understand but was thinking that to make it simple for users in 2.0 an entry in settings with a checkbox for RTC attached and then a 'timer style' option for frequency of update and then say 2 boxes to enter the NTP wervers to try and update from.

This way user only need to get RTC connected and recognised by pi and all the rest is taken care of in MyController....

I also see that GPS time servers are getting cheaper so another option if 'off grid' accurate time is required.
