[Request] View weight in imperial units #15

Open sahoahfoa opened 7 years ago

sahoahfoa commented 7 years ago

Granted only 3 countries actually use imperial units it would be easier to interpret what my weight is if it was in pounds.

ribbons commented 7 years ago

When this is added it would be great to have a pounds and stones option for UK (+ Irish & Australian?) users as well as pounds only for American (+ Canadian?) users.

aelveborn commented 7 years ago

I have always thought of adding a "Settings panel" in the gui for this kind of features. Should not be a problem of converting this in the ui. I will add this as a feature request.

Any update on this?

ribbons commented 6 years ago

I've implemented this in my fork at https://github.com/ribbons/Wii-Scale, so you can do: npm config set wii-scale:units lbs or npm config set wii-scale:units stones to select your favourite units.

Might be a few rough edges, so let me know if you hit any issues.

aelveborn commented 6 years ago

Perfect, ill keep this open since I want to add this to the ui.

mo-g commented 6 years ago

Would be good to make this user-specific. So Mog can have kilograms, and their room-mate Ribbons can have lbs.

In my country, both are used, as well as 'Stones and Lbs'. Ideally all three should be supported.

I know it has been many years without activity, just tried this out.

npm config set wii-scale:units lbs does nothing, the web interface is still in KGS

npm config set wii-scale:units stones does change the interface to weight in stones, it says something like stones and lbs.

Anyone know anything I might be missing or can adjust to make it display output in lbs?

Thanks

@crimp42 Are you using the fork?

@crimp42 Are you using the fork?

Yes, I cloned https://github.com/ribbons/Wii-Scale

I confirmed the one I am using has the changes in Wii-Scale/web/public/source/scripts/filters.js

Thanks

Actually I got it to work.

I had to use: npm config set wii-scale:units lb

NOT

npm config set wii-scale:units lbs

Glad you managed to club it into submission. I think the issue is that the minified versions of the files I committed are out of sync with the source (and instructions) - I tried re-building them just now by running grunt and that seemed to do the trick. Certainly my implementation looks a bit unfinished at this distance so glad it is working okay for you :+1:

Thanks for doing this fork!
