Temperature 7 - segment LCD Display

Description

in this project, you can provide a temperature and choose if you want a border or not, in an 7 segment display style. I will show you how it works. Like it is very easy. In app.ts I made some examples.

  const temperature = new Temperature()
  temperature.setTemperature("100 °C", "small", false);
  temperature.setTemperature("123 °C", "small", true);
  temperature.setTemperature("-12756.69 °C", "small", true);
  temperature.setTemperature("-12.69 °C", "small", true);
  temperature.setTemperature("12345.6789°C", "big", false);
  temperature.setTemperature("-1234567890. °C", "big", true);
  temperature.setTemperature("126.69 °C", "big", true);

Basically you need to give 3 arguments with the setTemperature method of the Temperature class.

  setTemperature(<temperature>: string, <size>: string, <border or not>: boolean)

as you can see, the first argument is the temperature, here in a string format, because the °C is not a number. So this was the easiest way to do it. the second argument is the option to have the temperature in a big or small format. the third argument is the option if you want a border or not.

the command to run the project:

  ts-node index.ts

The result of the the statements above is:

Like you can see, there are different types of visualization. You can choose them by providing it in de constructor above.

Unit tests

I've provide some unit test to see if the functionality is correct.

You can easily check them with following command

npm run test

this is the result

PASS  tests/digits.test.ts

Test Suites: 2 passed, 2 total
Tests:       34 passed, 34 total
Snapshots:   0 total
Time:        1.674 s, estimated 4 s

Because of working with test, the index.ts file can be deleted. The test renders the index.ts file. The tests will check if your program works fine, so you don't need to manually check if the output is correct. I let the index file where it was. Because it is a bit easier to see the results in the terminal. But if you don't want to, you're free to delete.
