Title: I made a screen
Post by: Kenny Dave on April 08, 2024, 03:21:41 pm

The Web Service Interface is pretty nifty. I made a little screen for my desktop with it.

Obviously I haven't quite got the hang of graphic design yet, and a couple of technical bits to tidy, but I'll get there.

That looks great. What is the hardware?
I have a LCD connected to a pi0w as a much more basic idea in the same vein.

Thanks. It's one of these (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Bewinner-Monitor-Computer-Temperature-800x480/dp/B0BCGZMMQ1/).

So probably pretty similar to what you have connected to the Pi. Are you running jriver on the Pi???

I used mathoudebine (https://github.com/mathoudebine/turing-smart-screen-python)'s python project for the talking to it, and built on that. The interface stuff I haven't a clue about, getting it out of jriver is pretty straightforward with the WSI.

Oh, that's a very interesting project!

I'm running tinycore linux on the display box and I just added the address of one of my IdPi's for it to query using MCWS

That's really cool. And another thing that jriver can do that I knew nothing about. It never seems to stop, the depth. I'll be dead before I hit the bottom.

It's getting prettier.
