Examenopdracht 2020 - Temperatuur LCD Display - De Baets Laura

Description

This library was created using typescript. It displays the temperature in an LCD style in the console. Below you can see the output of this library:

 ___________________________
|    _     _        _   _   |
|  | _|    _||_|   |_| |    |
|  ||_  /  _|  |       |_   |
|___________________________|

Installation instructions

You must have typescript!!! otherwise ->

npm install -g typescript

Installing the home-automation for windows:

npm i @lauradebaets/home-automation

To run the library with the index.ts:

ts-node ./index.ts

Multiple usage instructions and examples

General usage

If you want to use the library you just have to add these 2 lines in your program.

const application = new App({temperature: "-123456789, °C",size:"normal",border: true})
application.getLCD()

On this line below you must give the temperature, the size and say if you want a frame.

• At the temperature you can only enter the following characters: "0123456789, ° C"
• With the size you can choose between normal and big
• At the border you have to give if you want a frame.(true = with frame, false = without frame)

You can change the order. this does not affect the operation of the library.

const application = new App({temperature: "-123456789, °C",size:"normal",border: true})

The line below then ensures that the temperature is printed in the console.

application.getLCD()

Examples of the LCD library

Normal size and without frame

This code is in the index.ts. These are the 2 lines of code that you must integrate in your program to use the library.

const application = new App({temperature: "-123456789, °C",size:"normal",border: false})
application.getLCD()

Below you see the output of the getLCD () method.

     ||_  _|  | _||_|  ||_| _| /       |_

Normal size and with frame

const application = new App({temperature: "-123456789, °C",size:"normal",border: true})
application.getLCD()

Frame is dependent of the length

As you can see here, the frame depends on how many digits you have.

const application = new App({temperature: "100°C",size:"big",border: true})
application.getLCD()
