limitation config

[theo-69]

I trieb to set uo a real long config file, however the plugin always removed part of it while saving it.

The config does have over 220 lines.

What does the log say?

I tested a huge amount of config and got this:

[6/14/2018, 7:26:09 AM] [Config] PayloadTooLargeError: request entity too large

Do you get the same?

[theo-69]

Only thing I see [Config] Invalid token sent by admin: invalid signature

[oznu]

Can you share the config?

Is it cutting off the config resulting in invalid json or refusing to save?

[theo-69]

It is pretending to safe if I add one item like

,
                "158d00013e2497": {
                    "PlugBase_Outlet": {
                        "name": "Alarmauslösung"
                    }
                }

but then its returning and the item is not there anymore, thats kind of annoying if you have to add several of them. It started after 20 items or so. If I add them manually via VNC its working fine. Config is working 100%

[oznu]

I've pushed up a change to make the whole config saving process more robust.

sudo npm install -g --unsafe-perm homebridge-config-ui-x@next

• Sync config.json file saves, rather than async
• UI will not allow save to be hit multiple times
• Editor will go into read only mode while save is in progress

You can also use CTRL+S / CMD+S while focused on the config editor for quick saving.

[theo-69]

Just tried it, still the same. If I have a long config and hit save even without changing anything it will be shortened. :-(

my mistake used one ID twice (copy&paste)
