Informational Header

This is a HABPanel widget. It displays customizable, interactive notification items after the dashboard name.

Installation

• Use the HABPanel Widget Gallery and search for gersilex/informational-header.
• Click the import button.

-or-

• Download informational-header.widget.json
• Import it from the HABPanel settings interface

Configuration & Usage

• Notifications should be separate items and be member of a group you set in <Notifications Group Name>.
• Style the notification with Bootstrap3 button classes by adding one of these classes to your item's tags: \"btn-default\", \"btn-primary\", \"btn-success\", \"btn-info\", \"btn-warning\", \"btn-danger\".
• Give the buttons an additional glowing animation by adding \"glow\" to the item's tags in addition to the btn-color-classes.

See examples/notifications.items for a working example.

• Choose the custom widget as header replacement for one or more of your dashboards. Find instructions in the official post on the openHAB Community forums

Interactivity & Rules

In the settings of the widget, you can choose a command to be sent, when you click or tap the notification. This can be used to fire rules that listen to received command OFF commands.

For example, you could stop a flood alarm, turn off your whole-house-audio system, reset energy meters or anything else that may need context-sensitive interaction.
