Customizable Sleep Timer via App

[MichaelSeitz98]

Has someone already considered making the sleep mode times adjustable via the app/web interface? Would be quite cool to set it change it :) Are there any showstoppers? If not what steps/adjustments would be required for a such a development?

Thanks a lot for your thoughts!
Best regards

Hi Michael,

This certainly would be possible.
This requires additions to the API and app.
I can have look into this, unless of course you want to do this yourself.

Regards,
Frank.

Hi Frank,

Sure! I would appreciate it a lot! I will take a close look on your changes, maybe then I can learn from it for potential further extensions (as I am quite new to open-source dev)!

Btw: very nice work with your Interface/App but also general here in the community 🙌

Thanks a lot already!
Michael

Hi Michael,

Pull request #240 now also contains setting the sleep timer through the web-app:

Please let me know if you find any defects (did not test it on an actual clock).

Regards,
Frank.

Hi Frank!

Nice! Great work! I will check out your branch and test it on the actual watch next weekend.

Thanks and all the best
Michael

Hi @FrankX0,

i did test it on my watch...but I do not get it to work as I get such a Error OSError: [Errno 98] Address already in use Error.

Do you have an idea or is it even related to my installation?

Thanks again!

This error message means it cannot open the port (80) which is used by the web-app. Do you have the original clock still running?

[MichaelSeitz98]

Thanks for the super fast reply. The original version should not be running, at least not that I know. I also replaced my crontab with wordclock.py of your branch. So the old version should not be running anymore :)

[FrankX0]

So, you replaced the crontab and then rebooted the pi?

Hi Frank,
now it seem so work. Another reboot made it work! Thanks a lot.
