Only display single door

[monkeyboyohyeah]

Hi, Firstly, thanks for a great little programme.

I've only got one big garage door and, try as I might, I can't seem to be able to remove the 'right' door from the programme. I see people are able to add doors - any way I can remove a door?

Thanks in advance.

Can you upload your config.json file?

[monkeyboyohyeah]

Almost completely unmodified. I've only changed the name of the left door to "DOOR".

config.json.zip

Ah. Well then. In order to remove one of the doors, simply remove the entire second door description block from the config file.

Delete the following:

    "right" : 
    {
        "name" : "RIGHT",
        "relay_pin" : 24,
        "state_pin" : 21,
        "state_pin_closed_value" : 0,
        "approx_time_to_close" : 15,
        "approx_time_to_open" : 15,
        "openhab_name" : "g_door_right"
    }

Then you should have only a single door button.

You'd think that would work!

However, the script fails with the following message;

pi@raspberrypi:~/garage-door-controller $ sudo python controller.py

Traceback (most recent call last):

Please post your resulting config.json. You've probably got a rogue comma or something.

Got it, There was a comma that was causing the problem; Cheers
