Are you dashing? Are you hot? Then you need the Dashing Hotness Widget! Forked from here: Source. See the original blog post for more details.
Important Unlike the original Hotness widget which used value
, this widget uses current
and last
and can be a direct drop in replacement for the Number widget.
This widget is similar to standard Hotness widget but I've added the change-rate arrows from the basic Number widget. The entire widget changes colour based on the value displayed. It is designed to draw attention to metrics which need attention.
Good for metrics which are monitored for their 'good' (cold) or 'bad' (hot) status.
Not good for metrics which don't have a pre-determined range, or aren't that important.
From your Dashing Dashboard's directory, use the command:
dashing install 597ad01d63f209140c97
Include a widget with a data-view
of Hotness
. The widget must include a
data-cool
and data-warm
value to work properly.
<li data-row="1" data-col="1" data-sizex="1" data-sizey="1">
<div data-id="synergy" data-view="Hotness" data-title="Synergy Hotness" data-cool="20" data-warm="90"></div>
</li>
See below for a full list of fields this widget uses.
- data-id: Like all widgets, you must include an identifier so that your jobs can update the value.
- data-cool: Anything below this value will show the 'cold' colour. It should be set high enough to include all the 'good' range of value for this metric.
- data-warm: Anything above this value will show the 'hot' colour. It should be set just below the 'bad' range of value for this metric - ie. those that need attention!
- data-title: Optional title to show in the widget box (above the value).
- data-prefix: Optional prefix to the value.
- data-suffix: Optional suffix to the value.
The default colour scheme is Sweet Lolly by nekyo.
The file SCSS file has an alternative colour scheme which should (I hope!) be colour-blindness friendly (going from blue to yellow) called 400 Lovers by Tzadkiel.
To use this scheme, just uncomment the last 5 lines of the SCSS file
