Why have I been doing this you ask? Well, very quickly after putting together the theme for this [Ghost](https://ghost.org/) blog I notice a small annoyance. The helper used to generate excerpts of post for the main page can only truncate based on character or word count. This seemed like a bit of a shortcoming to me, I wanted to be able to truncate on paragraphs so text isn't cut off mid-sentence. Why have I been doing this you ask?

As this is my first forte into NPMs I used it as a learning experience. As this is my first forte into NPMs I used it as a learning experience.

This didn't go as smoothly as I hoped. This didn't go as smoothly as I hoped.
First, I discovered a [bug](//github.com/AverageMarcus/Truncatise/issues/1) in my module. It was incorrectly handling the combination of `<p>` tags with double newlines when truncating to paragraphs. First, I discovered a [bug](https://github.com/AverageMarcus/Truncatise/issues/1) in my module. It was incorrectly handling the combination of `<p>` tags with double newlines when truncating to paragraphs.
To resolve this I needed to determine whether or not to use double newline to indicate a paragraph. This was done by ignoring any newlines between paragraph tags and better regular expression matching.

I also noticed an issue with the suffix, e.g. &hellip;, when used with `<p>` tags, it was rending after the and of the tag and thus display on a new line. _Whoops!_ Not what is expected. A quick little replace when not stripping HTML solved this.

One of the main things I did learn at this early stage was to make sure Linux is correctly set up. By default the port the Arduino is set to (likely `/dev/ttyacm0`) has permissions that prevent users from accessing it. Resolve this by either adding yourself to the correct group or by `chmod`ing it to be more permissive.

To program against ardunio using JavaScript we were advised to use a library call [johnny-five](ttps://github.com/rwaldron/johnny-five). I highly recommend it is you are planning on doing any hardware programming as it does support a range of different boards. There is also a **LOT** of examples so it is pretty easy to get up and running with whatever you want.

So with this all set up I started playing with some of the sensors available. A nice easy one to start with was the temperature sensor. It was easy to wire up, all it needed was 5v in, a ground and a data cable. Once wired up, the code is pretty simple. So with this all set up I started playing with some of the sensors available.
