    Rack Bling

    Just thought I'd share my use of this plugin. I wanted to add some bling to my rack and stumbled across this plugin that meant it saved me a ton of time messing with API's. Keeping things simple I created the dashboard using HSTouch. The screen is a touch screen connected via HDMI to a computer below running the HSTouch client. Just a cheap touch screen and cut a hole out of a blank rack panel to fit.

    OMG I love it! I wish HSTouch projects were more shareable! I'm about to move to a glass front rack in my office and I wanted to do a dashboard behind the smoked glass. this would be perfect!

      Are you pulling the top values from the API yourself? If so I can look at adding them to the plugin.

        very nice. I rarely look at my setup in the closet and look at my PC instead.... but cool idea. I have so many old tablets around i could do this with!

              The Switch and Access Point count I've just done as a calculated field via script based on the status of the devices, so if I added/removed devices, I would then need to update the script. The internet icon is tied to the Internet Status so if working green otherwise it will show grey graphic. The rest is from your plugin (other than storage stuff). Re adding it... for sure would be handy.

                Project and graphics attached. The Unifi folder drops into your skins folder. Obviously a bit of work to tie everything to your own devices but if it help someone then here it is.

                  awesome. thank you for this

                  And I thought about the device count and I can actually pull it, but trying to determine the best way to store it. I was thinking 1 device for total and 1 for "missing", but then thought that the way you have it might actually be best. Not sure. How would you want that data stored? 2 devices per type?
