Make INA219 to show all 3 values about espeasy HOT 20 CLOSED

I changed the INA plugin, that it shows all 3 values and also able to handle more than one INA on one system (4 max) because the original file was not handling it correct if setup more than one INA.
Also I put a factor value for the resistor in to be able to change the resistor on the INA219 itself.
I have now idea if it is ok to upload the plugin to test plugin folder because it was not written by me originally, only changed for my need. ( Or give it new name ?)
I'm thinking to put even a calibration setup in to have an offset with the core of the calculation

This is currently a typical limitation forced by our main Home Automation platform Domoticz. It only supports a limited number of device types so this sensor has been implemented as as single value type.
For Domoticz, you would have to create three devices and configure three sensors in Domoticz.

From the beginning, we have tried to fully support multiple Home Automation platforms and with ESP Easy Mega it even tries to support them simultaneously. But this brings challenges that haven't been faced yet.

@mvdbro I tought that you can make only to show/display those 2 extra values together in the Web UI, but it will send only 1 value like in the current version. Nothing else!

Thank you!

Have done a thing like that in the past, but displaying values while not sending them, certainly leads to confusion for many users.

@mvdbro I don't know for the rest of the users, but it would be easier to use those existing values for LCD displaying/monitoring...even you can make those values to be in other color frame e.g. yellow, in that case the user will know that is a local value (which can't be sent from that Device page).

@Maik2016 Nice work!, especially for the resistor factor! Can you share it some how?

from espeasy.

Here is the code.
The thing with setting the report value dosn't work, it sends all data (without updating the not wanted values)

Thank you for the code!
You mentioned something "it sends all data", where?! To the Log or to Controller?

from espeasy.

Both, at least to my FHEM, for me is no problem because I use all data, I don't think there is a way to separate this in one plugin now.

@psy0rz , @krikk can someone of you fix this enhanced plugin from @Maik2016 posted link, please! ;)

from espeasy.

i dont have time since im focussing on fixing bugs. only easy to merge pull request currently go in.

@psy0rz Just elaborate the "Reporting" part, pls!

from espeasy.

maybe later, i have to look into it first.

from espeasy.

@psy0rz Thank you many times! ;)

p.s. For me is enough to show all 3 values together in the WebUI and to be able work with in Rules with all 3 values, also the Resistance Factor is great in it, because if you change the shunt resistor on the module, you can measure higher current values! ;)

from espeasy.

If you don't want to sent data just uncheck the send to controller.

Have you tried If this plugin works for you ?

from espeasy.

Not yet, but how I know the Domoticz will not accept all values!

from espeasy.

I tested it, it's working internally (showing the results in the WebUI), but wont send any data to Domoticz or Domoticz wont accept it.

from espeasy.

Should be fixed
