npm.io

Install

You can install this node directly from the "Manage Palette" menu in the Node-RED interface.
Alternatively, run the following command in your Node-RED user directory - typically ~/.node-red on Linux or %HOMEPATH%\.nodered on Windows

    npm install node-red-contrib-ui-countdown-timer-switch

Requirements

node-red v0.19 or above
node-red-dashboard v2.10.0 (v2.15.4 or above would be ideal)

Usage

Add a countdown-timer-switch-node to your flow. Open the dashboard, by default you will see four buttons. Each button has a label with a number that indicates how long the switch stays on (in minutes). Click one of those buttons and the switch will be on for the specific amount of time.

Input

The countdown can be activated via an incoming message if it has a property countdown. The value of msg.countdown must be a number in minutes. The switch will stay on for the specified amount of time. A msg.countdown with a value of 0 turns the switch off.

Size

You can leave it with a grid size of 'auto' but if you want to change that make sure it's at least 5x2 (you can make it smaller if you don't mind scrollbars though).
