sysutils/nut: Added Nut widget

[jamtur01]

This is an (opinionated) widget for the Nut UPS plugin.

This is my first contribution, so I am happy to adjust or get any feedback.

@Monviech Thanks for your feedback. I'm not primarily a FE person, so it's useful! One issue since replacing the ajaxGet with the function from the Basewidget is that it's not returning any data. I know the UPS diagnostics can be a little slow, but I've tried it with some retries. Is there something obvious I am doing wrong here? I'll poke at it some more when I have a free minute.

[Monviech]

Can you give me the json output of /api/nut/diagnostics/upsstatus then I can test the widget sometime later.

Also how long does the response take, longer than a second?

Cause when its really slow the action that gets the status might need to be cached.

In the Service itself, the Diagnostics data takes 1-2 seconds to return.

Maybe try to set a cache_ttl here as linked in my prior post. Maybe 30s and see if it gets better. Unsure though.

Any updates on when this will be merged to production?

Thanks

[jamtur01]

I haven't had a chance to look at this again. I'll try to take a look this w/e.

@Monviech @fichtner @mimugmail This should now be ready for another review. I refactored it to be more like the other UPS plugin and that resolved the issues.

[jamtur01]

And I noticed someone else wrote another plugin. shrugs Choose whichever suits you.

@mimugmail , @jamtur01 - How do i use this in my opnsense?

[wogglenet]

It would be nice if this calculated the estimated load in watts

[jamtur01]

calculated the estimated load in watts

Sure. Done.

After internal discussion we merged #4188 -- it was a fifty fifty but a choice had to be made. Thanks for your contribution in any case. ❤️
