Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Modern visualization dashboard for ioBroker

Readme

ioBroker.aura

Aura is a modern visualization dashboard for ioBroker.

📖 Documentation – widgets, settings, screenshots

Beta – The project is under active development. Bugs and breaking changes are possible.


Features

  • Flexible grid layout with drag & drop
  • Multiple tabs / pages per dashboard
  • Themes: Dark, Light, Catppuccin (Latte, Frappé, Macchiato, Mocha), Apple Liquid Glass and more
  • Full admin interface – no YAML, no JSON editing required
  • Responsive – works on tablet, smartphone and desktop

Widgets

| Widget | Description | |--------|-------------| | Switch | On/Off toggle | | Dimmer | Brightness slider | | Thermostat | Target / actual temperature | | Gauge | Round gauge with color zones | | Fill level | Tank / water / gas level – vertical or horizontal | | Chart | Line, bar, pie chart (ECharts) | | Calendar | iCal / Google Calendar | | Weather | Current weather data | | Clock | Analog or digital | | iFrame / Camera | Embed any URL | | EVCC | Wallbox, solar, battery storage | | Waste collection | Which bin needs to go out? | | Group | Nested widgets |


Installation

Step 1 – Install adapter

Install Aura via ioBroker Admin:

  1. Open ioBroker Admin
  2. Go to Adapters
  3. Search for Aura and install it

Step 2 – Create instance

After installation, create a new Aura instance (if not done automatically).

Step 3 – Configure web adapter

Open ioBroker Admin → Instances → web.0 → Settings and set:

| Setting | Value | |---------|-------| | socket.io | integrated |

Important: The default value "socket.io" uses the separate iobroker.socketio adapter on port 8084. Aura requires socket.io on the same port as the web adapter (integrated mode) so that both plain HTTP access and HTTPS via reverse proxy work with a single connection endpoint.

Step 3b – (Optional) Dedicated web instance for proxy

Aura loads a proxy extension into a web adapter instance to enable the iframe X-Frame-Options bypass feature. By default no web instance is configured (proxy disabled).

Tip: If you configure web.0 as the proxy target, stopping or restarting aura will also restart web.0 — taking down VIS, Material UI etc. To avoid this, create a dedicated instance:

  1. Admin → Adaptersweb+ → create web.1, set port to e.g. 8083.
  2. In aura admin → "Web instance for proxy" → select system.adapter.web.1 → save.

Step 4 – Open dashboard

The dashboard is available at:

http://<iobroker-ip>:8082/aura/

The admin interface at:

http://<iobroker-ip>:8082/aura/#/admin

HTTPS / Reverse Proxy

Aura works behind a reverse proxy (e.g. nginx, Nginx Proxy Manager, Caddy) with a valid TLS certificate (e.g. Let's Encrypt). The web adapter socket.io must be set to integrated (see Step 3) so that /socket.io/ and /aura/ are served from the same port.

Nginx Proxy Manager – example configuration

| Field | Value | |-------|-------| | Forward Scheme | http | | Forward Hostname / IP | <iobroker-ip> | | Forward Port | 8082 | | Websockets Support | enabled |

No additional custom nginx directives are needed when socket.io is set to integrated.

Why not use the ioBroker web adapter's built-in HTTPS?

When the web adapter itself terminates TLS (self-signed certificate), browsers block programmatic WebSocket connections (wss://) from JavaScript even after the user accepted the HTTPS warning in the browser. A reverse proxy with a CA-signed certificate (e.g. Let's Encrypt) avoids this restriction entirely.


Widget Notes

Camera widget

Stream URL types

The camera widget auto-detects the stream type based on the URL:

| URL pattern | Rendering | Notes | |---|---|---| | *.html / *.htm | <iframe> | Works with go2rtc stream.html, any HTML-based player | | rtsp:// / rtsps:// | Hint message | RTSP is not supported natively in browsers – use go2rtc as a proxy and enter the MJPEG URL instead | | everything else | <img> | MJPEG (refresh interval = 0) or periodic snapshot |

go2rtc MJPEG URL: http://<host>:1984/api/stream.mjpeg?src=<stream-name>

Mixed Content (HTTP stream in HTTPS dashboard)

If Aura is served over HTTPS and the camera URL is HTTP, browsers apply mixed content rules:

| Client | Behaviour | |---|---| | Desktop Chrome / Firefox | Usually allows passive content (<img> MJPEG), may block <iframe> | | Chrome on Android | Allows passive mixed content | | Android WebView (Fully Kiosk, custom apps) | Blocks all mixed content by default | | Safari / iOS | Blocks active mixed content (<iframe>) |

Fixes:

  • Fully Kiosk Browser: Settings → Advanced Web Settings → Allow Mixed Content
  • Clean solution: serve go2rtc behind a reverse proxy with HTTPS so the camera URL is also https://
  • Quick workaround: open Aura via http:// instead of https:// in the kiosk browser (only if your network is trusted)

The widget config panel shows a warning automatically when a http:// stream URL is detected while Aura is running on https://.

Wake-up datapoint (battery cameras, e.g. Eufy)

Some cameras (e.g. Eufy) need an explicit activation signal before the stream is available. Configure an ioBroker datapoint in the widget settings – the widget sends true when the stream should start and false when it stops.

Three trigger modes are available:

| Mode | When is true sent? | |---|---| | Automatisch | On page load | | Bei Sicht | When the widget scrolls into the viewport | | Bei Klick | When the user taps the widget placeholder |
