@waaren, thanks for your answer. Yes, it's a matter of poking around in the database but it is in a certain way using the API of domoticz even though it is not an officially documented method. In the meantime I figured out how to do it with Python too. I missed a quote when converting from LUA to ...

Hello, I've been experimenting with devices in order to extend the capabilities of Domoticz a little bit ;) I could achieve the result by using a LUA script but when trying to do the same in Python something went horribly wrong. After the Python action the device went missing and when I ask for its ...

That's pretty weird. If I try the solution provided by alexsh1 and test the connection then the image shows up for a fraction of a second and then shows a broken image but if I accept the settings anyway then the thumbnail shows up and both streaming and taking snapshots work so this is definitely a ...

Since I'm not into using Google Maps as source for maps I took the liberty to create a slightly modified version of the script. It is really simple just change this line: txt = date + ": <a target='_blank' style='color: black;' href='https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=" + lat ...

Just for information: To make this work it is necessary to have Domoticz accept new hardware devices. It took me 15 minutes before I realized my mistake. B.T.W.: I think the timers function is wrong here. If I set a timer I only have the option to set it on or off. So what's the on state here? Is it ...

Just for the record: I've tried to install dtgbot according to the instructions on this page: https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Remote_Control_of_Domoticz_by_Telegram_Bot. Result: a working system in 1 attempt. I found a few things that might be interesting for the wiki: - I struggled a while with the ...

All right, I see the problem. I thought the term "rain device" in the script was just descriptive, but it's not. It needs to be a device of type 'rain" not just a "text" device. So now it's working.

Thanks for your quick reply. In the meantime I figured out myself it has to do with this line: url=domoticzurl..'/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=' .. DEVIDX .. '&nvalue=0&svalue=' .. calcmmh .. ';' .. calcmmh I did take a look at your wiki reference but I don't understand what the ...

Using the script as (for example) shown in this post: viewtopic.php?f=38&t=5903&p=155037&hili ... in#p148937 the 'DEVIDX' sensor is always filled with two numbers separated by a ';' and the two numbers are always equal. What's the purpose of that?

Hello everyone, This is my first post. I've experimenting with the selector switch option in order to figure out if I could use it to set a state that is used by a different switch (so I don't need exactly an action associated with the state). It's about switching subsets of lights from a somewhat ...
