return signal quality too #42

Open dkebler opened 6 years ago

To use the signal_level in my browser/server app I had to convert dB back to quality :-). One needs a percent to use with any level/progress component.

Best to just return both and let coders decide.

FYI, My web app is almost done. I've written a websocket server class wrapping node-wifi. Also a front end to access from a PWA (phone app). Will be a nice dependent to your module. End users will likely prefer want your module in this form.

BTW When I get done with my PWA I'd like to help with this project, answer issues, write PRs extending wrapping of nmcli. Thx.

Hi sorry for delay! I am happy there are new projects around node-wifi. It is a great idea. It think this kind of feature is not included directly in the repository (and because it is your work also :) ) but I could give a teasing in the readme file.

About the quality, it is good idea too and I implemented it in the dev branch. Can you tried it ? If it fits your needs I will publish it on npm.
