text device, with api call for updating text
Posted: 19 Apr 2021 19:27
In other home automation systems I was always using a simple widget/module/app where text/label/message was updatable using an api call.
For instance an information string with cpu temp/temp/disk space etc (instead of using snmp), or the result of whatever push-button function/macro/script.
I have searched through the apps for text and label, but no app seems to have this.
Is there a better way in this framework perhaps? An app showing a message log?
Looking at the examples, I guess it might not be very tricky to create a new app for this purpose, but I am sure someone already did this.
