Hello everyone, I'm having a headache trying to wrap my head arround using button on a node. In my js file, I got a function created in the node description: function EcobeePinRequest(config) { RED.nodes.createNode(this, config); this.name = config.name; var node = this; var ecobeeControll…

I think you are making life hard for yourself. Why do you want to use a button on a node for the request of the information? Why don’t you use a button in the ui of the config node itself? This would at least to me make much more sense from a user perspective. Have a look at @BartButenaers and mine…

Hello, Multiple things come to mind. When you do a console.log() from the html this will happen client side and not server side so you will only see it in the developer console of the browser and not in the logs of the machine running nodered. If you want to trigger anything server side in your j…

Hello, thank you for the reply. I was reading from the inject file late last night. I'm just unsure how it work, I stopped working with HTML before ajax and jquery. My understanding. In the js file, which is backend, there is this line: RED.httpAdmin.post("/inject/:id", RED.auth.needsPermission("i…

They pass 4 parameters to the $.ajax function: url type success: callback function that will be called in case the server has returned a correct resp(onse). error: callback function that will be called in case the server has returned an error

oh yeah, didn't see properly there was 4 parm. I'm "toying" with it right now and seeing more and more how it work. I have another question though. Right now, it pass url: "inject/"+this.id, where, where this.id is the current node id that is then used in the js file to find it with var node = RED.…

Sorrt, I have heard of that controller. What do you want to do (with it) on the server side?

The controller will contain an api key, an access token and a refresh token. It will also host function to request and refresh api and tokens. The controller is a configuration node. My current node are as follow: ecobee.js module.exports = function(RED) { RED.httpAdmin.post("/ecobee/:id", …

I manage to get way farther now. I have 2 different scenario, both with the same problem in the end though. In my configuration (ecobeeController) node, I have 4 property: clientID ecobeePin accessToken refreshToken I have another node "pinRequest" that when I press a button, it does the operati…

Hi, Sorry for the delay but have been away all day... Some remarks about the code: I assume that the tokens need to be private? You have declared the tokens as normal node fields, which means that all nodes in the flow can read them (even e.g. malicious nodes). Moreover when somebody ever exp…

Thanks for the reply. I'll try to better explain myself. Sorry for lack of using proper term, I'm new to node-red. I code in Java (well, used to) and the method get and set are there because that's how I learned to used these. The property will end private and get used through these command. Now, f…

Hello, thanks for the reply, I'll check all of that. to be honest, I don't care about the button, it's just the way I found it. At first, I was even doing it at the loading of the controller, checking if and access token and refresh token is present and if not and a clientID is present, send a reque…
