Text box

Post by sc-magnus »

Hi,
Is there anyway to create a "text box" in the z-way UI ?
I want to make a module that show text ( current playing song on spotify )
I can already control my Mopidy server using HTTP device for play, paus, volume etc etc
but I cant figure out how to display some sort of text .

Anyone got some tips?

XML or JSON vDev can help you with that.

Hi
Have very little json and xml skills.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Would like to send a http command and then display the respons in a "text box"
Or is there a usermodule that i may modify/use the code from?

I can use the InfoWidget module.
But how do I change de "metric.title" and "metrics.text"
Can it be changed with HTTP API?
