Marikc0's Programs: Base Power/tank/machine Monitor

-- Use this as your startup program. Every reboot/startup it will update the program and the program will update the API.
-- This is all you need to get the program. No downloads. Just create a file with this in it, name it startup and run it or CTRL+R to reboot and start it up.
shell.run("rm aio")
shell.run("pastebin get BmzdhY0C aio")
shell.run("aio")

Spoiler

Download it from Pastebin
The API will automatically be updated by the program.

This program is still in beta, but should work for most. It is very possible that there are numerous bugs, but it is currently working well for me.

Screenshots:

Requirements

• Minimum of two monitors. In the future it will optionally support three or more.
• OpenPeripherals and ComputerCraft
• HTTP enabled

How To Use

1. Setup a computer somewhere.
2. Setup two monitors.
3. Attach wired modems to any supported device, both monitors and the computer (wired together with network cable).
4. Activate the wired modems by clicking them (box around the modem turns red).
5. The only configuration option that you may be forced to change is the monitor IDs (shown when a modem is flipped on).
6. Start the program. It's plug and play. Most peripherals will be hot-pluggable and show up as soon as they are connected.

Automatically detects the following peripherals (by wired modem):

• RailCraft Iron or Steel Tanks - hot pluggable! You can connect these while the program is running and they'll detect/display.
• GPS
• IC2: Electric Furnace, Macerator, Extractor, Compressor, Ore Washer, Canning Machine, Metal Former, Recycler or Thermal Centrifuge
• Single MFE, MFSU, BatBox or CESU. Should also be hot pluggable.

Updates

Spoiler

• Fixed periodic machine display bug. I think.
• Added some new options to the config.
• Supports IC2 canning machine, metal former and recycler now.
• Supports configurable formatting of machine display.
• Machines display in alphabetical order (non random order).

To Do List:

• Config: Use a config file so updating doesn't overwrite any changes to the configuration options.
• Hot plugging. Make more peripherals hot pluggable (not require a program restart).
• Support: Terminal Glasses
• Support: Multiple power storage peripherals at once
• Add: LV/MV/HV Solar Panel and Applied Energistics information
• Add: More colors for various things on the monitors such as power readings, ore names, activity messages, etc.
• Add: Progress bars (maybe).
• Add: Auxiliary monitors for displaying a graph or visual meter of things like total power capacity.
• Add: IC2 output slot (created item) display.
• Improve: The displays visually

Other features:

• "Highly" configurable (much more so in the future).
• Automatically renames most IC2, MFR and AE ore/item names in the display to a readable format.
• Tanks: Displays type of fluid, amount in the tank, current capacity and a conversion to buckets.
• IC2: Displays current machine status and ore in the input slot.
• Formatting of numbers

Known Bugs:

Spoiler

• Unknown

If you've broken and replaced the modems on the monitor, then you'll need to change the id's in the config section. Now my issue, it seems to think that my railcraft tank is empty I think. It's not showing any information for it, though it's mostly full of lava.

I too am having the same problem with railcraft tanks, I am using iron tanks placing the modem on a valve block, connecting network cable and enabling the modem, all i get on the screen is railcraft information at the top then nothing else. Ic2 stuff is working and this is a great program, any ideas please

Hi
I was strong edit your code and end what I need :)/>
I made that all blocks attached to modem are detectable (machines, tanks,energy blocks even you connect or disconnect modem, all works dynamicly) also I added support for AE controller, Thermal Expansion, Ender IO, Mekanism (tanks)…
For power display I made one multi storage system for all kind of power :)/>

EnnekPl Awsome job at changes could you pls share Paste bin edit with us or marik awsome screens shots

And pls add Nuclear Reactor support maybe even support for Mod@ Nuclear control or OpenPeripherals i would love to assist.?

i watched the youtube video your english is good. awesome program for EE but sadly :(/> pahimar will not update that mod in its original version.

I did have to make 1 small edit to your code to make tanks work. Railcraft must have updated some call. Line 42 in enu API changed local tableInfo = tankPeriph.getTanks("unknown")[1] to

tankPeriph.getTankInfo("unknown")[1] and it worked perfectly.

This look really interesting, could you maybe put up a post on how you did this or could you send me the bit of code for the status bar at the side. The next big thing would be to implement more mods and if you rewrote the bits from the original code, you could put this program up as your own post

Im waiting for ennekPl to answer he has stated he was going to start a new post so.. But if he dosnt come back i will publicly post the code and of course credit marik and ennekPL

I wont wait to long lol but he did do the work and its an awesome program it worked perfectly for build 112 openp but the new update changed a few methods l

overal the script looks really nice , the only down side of it is that u need to hook up all the monitors for it to work properly
would be nice to see a config option to turn off some things like the machine and nuclear monitor i dont use them
also a global config file would be verry nice.

I think that is the bridge. make sure you plug the glasses terminal to the back of the computer. I got a working model on our server but even if you get it working, its still having a lot of issues. I've sent a message to a few people that was working on this but have yet to get a response to fixing the issues.

I have fixed some bugs of it previously, not at the request of the author though, but still, what kind of problems do you have?

really cool setup you have made there. Can you please share the pastebin info to me? :-) also, do you know if it is possible to add machine info details for the thermal expansion package, like the info from the IC2 machines?
