Enhancement - Give the devices a name to help identify them #7

Closed OnlineDynamic closed 1 year ago

OnlineDynamic commented 1 year ago

I'm running multiple Kasa smart plugs to power up/down controllers.

I'm running the commands for this plugin directly from the fpp scheduler and it works well

But... thinking it would be really helpful to have an arg to the plugin that gives the device a real world name to help identify them

e.g. currently fpp scheduler UI shows: Args: 192.168.0.23 | true | 0

But would like it to show "F16v3 side of house" | 192.168.0.23 | true | 0

So need the ability to enter the real world name "F16v3 side of house" in the args to the plugin

rather than fixing for this plugin I have now raised an enhancement on FPP itself: https://github.com/FalconChristmas/fpp/issues/1457
