Hi,
is it possible, to add own widgets? Any HowTo for this?
Why I ask:
I have a waterboiler with 6 temp-sensors over the whole boiler. I found there is a cylinder-widget.
Therefore my thought: Copy the cylinder_render.js, modify it to hold all 6 temps, and give the 6 temps out on the graphic. Modifying the "cylinder_render.js" should not be the problem. But I do not know, how to tell emoncms, that there is a new widget.
The place, where i thought to add the new widget (widgetlist.js) there are only text and container-items.
As soon, as I add a new subfolder in "C:\wamp\www\emoncms\Modules\dashboard\Views\js" dashboard is working wrong :-(
BTW:
I changed this: (missing ° )
ctx.fillText(cyl_top.toFixed(1)+"C",midx,top_pos);
ctx.fillText(cyl_bot.toFixed(1)+"C",midx,bot_pos+15);
to
ctx.fillText(cyl_top.toFixed(1)+"°C",midx,top_pos);
ctx.fillText(cyl_bot.toFixed(1)+"°C",midx,bot_pos+15);
Re: Adding own widgets (cylinder with 6 temperature-feeds)
Hi,
found this from Trystan: http://openenergymonitor.org/emon/node/2491
With this "faq" I was able to create the widget, I need for my project.
I append a pic from my result:
- showing all 6 temperatures in the cylinder
- calculating the color for each temperature
If somebody wants to copy: Feel free to contact me.
Re: Adding own widgets (cylinder with 6 temperature-feeds)
I did something similar but only showing an extra temp in the middle, I.e. 3 in total. Sorry but away on holiday so can't send thru any pics or code just now.
