Hello,
Great idea, thank you! Currently, you can achieve this using the API. You can register your action and toggle selected dashboards whenever the action is triggered. Once registered, this action can be added as a shortcut.
Below is an example script in Python. You could also add, for instance, GPIO pin support to call toggle_dashboard() (GPIO examples:
https://github.com/wiboma/hudiy/tree/main/examples/gpio).
Code: Select all
import itertools
import time
import common.Api_pb2 as hudiy_api
from common.Client import Client, ClientEventHandler
class EventHandler(ClientEventHandler):
def __init__(self):
self._action = "toggle_dashboards"
# Dashboards to toggle - actions from dashboards.json
self._actions = ["hudiy_dashboard", "obd_charts", "obd_blocks", "obd_combined"]
self._actions_iterator = itertools.cycle(self._actions)
next(self._actions_iterator)
def on_hello_response(self, client, message):
print(
"received hello response, result: {}, app version: {}.{}, api version: {}.{}"
.format(message.result, message.app_version.major,
message.app_version.minor, message.api_version.major,
message.api_version.minor))
register_action_request = hudiy_api.RegisterActionRequest()
register_action_request.action = self._action
client.send(hudiy_api.MESSAGE_REGISTER_ACTION_REQUEST, 0,
register_action_request.SerializeToString())
def on_register_action_response(self, client, message):
print("register action response, result: {}, action: {}".format(
message.result, message.action))
if message.result:
print("action successfully registered")
def on_dispatch_action(self, client, message):
print("dispatch action, action: {}".format(message.action))
if message.action == self._action:
self.toggle_dashboard(client)
def toggle_dashboard(self, client):
next_dashboard = next(self._actions_iterator)
dispatch_action = hudiy_api.DispatchAction()
dispatch_action.action = next_dashboard
client.send(hudiy_api.MESSAGE_DISPATCH_ACTION, 0,
dispatch_action.SerializeToString())
print("toggle dashboard: {}".format(dispatch_action.action))
def main():
client = Client("dashboard toggle")
event_handler = EventHandler()
client.set_event_handler(event_handler)
try:
while True:
try:
client.connect('127.0.0.1', 44405)
while True:
if not client.wait_for_message():
break
except Exception:
pass
time.sleep(2)
except KeyboardInterrupt:
pass
finally:
client.disconnect()
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
Code: Select all
{
"shortcuts": [
{
"iconFontFamily": "Material Symbols Rounded",
"iconName": "cycle",
"action": "toggle_dashboards"
}
]
}
