Add elapsed time to dashboard #187

Open solnus opened 3 weeks ago

While the expected duration being displayed is nice, it would be helpful to display a current elapsed time as well.

  1. I agree showing actual.local.time would be a "nice" feature .
  2. What is status on stopping and resuming a run from where it stopped. I know this has been discussed. If it is available can i add it without changing my current system.?

Pause and Resume was added to the api. Someone requested this feature with power issues. He would call the api to pause at the current temp and use a generator until power came back where he'd resume. See the api docs. I'm not sure this is what you want though. If you are literally requesting a stop (let the kiln cool) and then restart at a later time at the same point. You can also do this with the api by using stop, and startat.

@solnus seems logical, but it's not so simple. if it's just displaying elapsed time since the start of the run, that's pretty easy. Is that what you want?

@jbruce12000 yes, this feature request from my perspective is simply elapsed time since start of the run. Additional considerations (like pause/resume) aren't in the scope I had intended.
