Ui_button: distinguish normal and long push

[Mortimer]

Dear all,

I need to distinguish between a normal and long press/touch when ui_button is used. With this, I would like to emulate a KNX push button with the same functionality in the nodered dashboard.

Any chance to get there, e.g. using ui_template?

OK, with the idea from "long press" ui element - #4 by hugobox I got it solved.

<div id="longPress">
    <md-button ng-model="msg.payload">Long</md-button>
</div>

<script>
    (function($scope) {
    let timerTreshold = false
    let timer;
    
    $('#longPress').on('touchstart mousedown', function(e) {
        e.preventDefault(); //prevent default behavior
        timer = setTimeout(function() {timerTreshold = true; console.log("long");}, 1000);
    });
    
    $('#longPress').on('touchend mouseup', function(e) {
        e.preventDefault(); //prevent default behavior
        clearTimeout(timer);
        
        if (!timerTreshold){
            console.log("short");
        }

    timerTreshold = false;
    
    });
    
})(scope);
</script>

Is there a way to use {{$id}} to make this template universal?

Also got this solved. The trick is waiting until document has finished loading using jQuery ducment ready function $(function() {}).

<div id="{{$id}}">
    <md-button ng-model="msg.payload">Long</md-button>
</div>

<script>
    (function($scope) {
    let timerTreshold = false
    let timer;

    $(function() {
    
        $('#'+$scope.$id).on('touchstart mousedown', function(e) {
            e.preventDefault(); //prevent default behavior
            timer = setTimeout(function() {timerTreshold = true; console.log("long");}, 1000);
        });
        
        $('#'+$scope.$id).on('touchend mouseup', function(e) {
            e.preventDefault(); //prevent default behavior
            clearTimeout(timer);
            
            if (!timerTreshold){
                console.log("short");
            }

        timerTreshold = false;
        
        });
    });
    
})(scope);
</script>
