State of outlet does not change until page is refreshed.

As above really. If i toggle on an outlet that is currently off, I will need to refresh the page around 3-5 seconds later for it to show the new state of the outlet is actually now "On".

Anything i can do? For what it might matter, i do have this externally facing from outside my LAN andbehind basic http auth....

In the video you see me click the outlet.
Then wait for around 5-6 seconds.
Then manually refresh the chrome window... and then the state shows as "On"

Hello,

the behavior is known and has been addressed with version 2.0, which is currently not released, among some other issues.

The cause is that the script loads faster than the PDU responds. Local benchmarks have shown that non-B models take ~2.7 sec while B models take ~0.7 sec, which is too slow. The solution is to load the page asynchronously, i.e. only display the current status when the PDU has fully responded.

Current workaround: Reload the page to get the actual status when using the web interface.

Solution: Use version 2.0 when it is available. Other projects currently have priority, which is why no ETA has been set.

Thanks for the thorough reply! Glad to see you're already aware of it.

Any other plans for v2.0? (whenever that might be)

My two pence would be a baked in user/password option? or Editting/renaming of the outlets. But i understand this is a personal passion project with a personal criteria.
