Widget: Number Input

[joepavitt]

Description

Called a "numeric" in the existing Dashboard 1.0. Would be similar to #38, but provide up/down arrows in the UI to modify the value.

Properties

Existing Dashboard 1.0 Properties:

Events

• on-change: this widget would need to send a message back to Node-RED when it's value is changed/updated

Controls

• enabled: this widget can be enabled/disabled

Existing Examples

Would require a custom built piece of HTML/JS

Have you provided an initial effort estimate for this issue?

#75 includes the text input widget, which itself has a "number" mode. In Dashboard 1.0 however, the numeric was considered a different wigdet, and so we should be consistent here.

From my point of view the numeric would no longer be necessary, if the text-input would get the missing features:

• min value
• max value
• step

Thanks for the input @m-schaeffler - Having seen a lot of industrial Dashboards over the past few months ,I think I'm being persuaded more and more than a ui-numeric should be included as a standalone widget. It is very popular in industry, and has distinct layout/options difference from ui-text-input
