@tomatopi a lot of people have asked the same thing, nobody knows... I'm of the opinion they will stick with angular. I'm more of a Vue3 person myself....

Thanks for the logic, can show you something basic to get you started

@dan Those tank level indicators look like VU meters...
Seems it can definitely be coded (frontend, not from the java code generated in the back).
Hit me up if you wish for further assistance

@MattFox For other folks who come to this thread, I was able to use the Prologix GPIB Ethernet Adapter: https://prologix.biz/product/gpib-ethernet-controller/

I have a working set of Mango Configs that I've got working to talk SCPI using the GPIB <-> Ethernet device servers to make this work. I originally tried to get this working with the Serial data source, but ran into a host of issues related to this.

Mango's quite versatile, but apparently the Serial data source chokes on SCPI-style commands- One reason was noted by @MattFox earlier in the thread, but it's also part of a problem with SCPI: Mango expects all data sources to return data, and some (many) SCPI commands don't actually generate an acknowledgement.

The GPIB <-> Ethernet adapter has the same problem, but the timeouts are faster, and you can use a trick in the Prologix device (++auto 1) to basically stream data into mango in Real Time.

The Mango config I put together for this is quite large, but if you're looking for SCPI interfacing, I'd imagine this script would work well for Native Ethernet as well as Vintage GPIB devices using an Etherent <-> GPIB device.

The Prologix one I linked above is the more affordable of the choices- you can just telnet into it, and issue commands, and it spits stuff back. It's actually quite cool.

@MattFox Thanks for posting this Fox!! And thank you again for all your help! Your an invaluable asset to this forum!

Note: For others that try to access this data from the DegreeDays.net API as shown above, you may need to adjust the CRON polling time to something a little later than 12:30AM as listed above. Some weather stations do not fully update yesterdays available Heating Degree Data until a couple hours or so after midnight, so experiment with the CRON polling time accordingly.

@cwangv I tried uploading the files from the location you suggested and got the same results. The log files do not give any information on the error.

Looking at my admin page shows I have 0.0 GB available in Mango home. This probably has something to do with it.

This contains an important fix for Mango 4.4, without this fix Mango can become entirely locked up after someone uses the SIMPLIFY option on the REST API.

@MattFox
Thanks for your advice

@Jared-Wiltshire Sorry to re-open this thread, but with the anonymous user role introduced in v4, does it mean we should be able to define certain pages with anonymous "View Page" permission which allow access of these pages without the need of Mango login?

BR,

@tungthanh500 it comes with understanding angularJS scopes ($scope).
In this case you have a variable of $scope.currentArea
Since this scope is attached to our view, the variable (in this case) can be accessed as currentArea.
Since we want the variable and not a string called "currentArea", we "add" (I use the term loosely here) the strings that make up your RQL query and supply the dynamically allocated currentArea variable.

Also look at controllerAs to understand nesting controllers and their respective scopes.

@cwangv
Agreed. I have something scribbled down about the error
'IllegalStateException: Should be in state [INITIALIZING, RUNNING], but is in state TERMINATING'
appearing in the log when attempting to delete a point failed.

Its almost as though the publisher isn't starting/stopping cleanly. (Only tested with modbus publisher)

@terrypacker thanks, but this is very unfortunate, as I am not thinking of "a much nicer page" in that I probably have 20 pages: most have dozens or hundreds of points. Converting by hand would be very tedious.

Is there a reference that explains how to recreate dashboard structures that are equivalent to existing structures used in the graphical view? For instance, the "Simple point" data structure normally shows the point value. On mouseover, a pop-up point links to the point details, and shows a pop-up default graph. Would I have to recreate that behavior in the dashboard from scratch?

Similarly, the "complex point" structure shows a table of Simple points, each with the Simple point mouseover behavior; binary points show pop-up default tables on mouseover. Would I have to write all that too, or are there equivalent data structures? Last time I looked at the dashboard a couple of years ago, I did not see a built-in way to replicate this behavior without going low-level. Even if there is an equivalent structure, mousing and clicking around to recreate each point would take ages because there are so many.

What is available to speed this conversion?
