convert Blocky to LUA

[poudenes]

Hi Guys,

I have a long list where i change "user variable" to trigger blocky actions. But want to change 1 specific one to make it easier to read.
See attachment what its now and how can i change this into LUA

Thanks for helping and push me in right direction of learning LUA code

Instead of Blocky you select Lua
Please select 'userVarialbel' on the next drop down list !!!

Paste the below code and give it a try

Code: Select all

commandArray = {}
if (uservariables["AllOff"] == "1") then
   
	uservariables["ComeHome"] == "0"
	uservariables["Evening"] == "0"
end
return commandArray

The error is in the "==".

You use "==" to compare, and "="to assign.
for example:

Code: Select all

if (a==b) then
	c = 1
	d = 2
	e = 3
end

Having said this, the way to assign a value to a user variable is not by simply assigning.
I use this to assign a value to variable named "TestVariable":

Code: Select all

commandArray['Variable:TestVariable"] = 3

    uservariables["TV"] = "0"
    end
return commandArray

Sp the first IF is the correct one to use?

And how can i given that the variable type must stay as "Integer" (type 0) something like "and uservariables type = "0" ?

commandArray['Variable:ComeHome"] = "0" and uservariables type = "0"

sorry for the dumb question... hehe

[manjh]

Depending on the definition of the variable, you can use "tonumber" or "tostring" functions.
This is the nice thing about Domoticz: simply try it and see what works.
In my server, I have defined a dummy switch called "Testbutton". When I want to test some code, I put it into a LUA script (type "device") like this:

Code: Select all

-- Test script
commandArray = {}
--if devicechanged['Testbutton']  then
    print ("@@@@@@@@ invoking tester")

    -- put the code to be tested here

    print ("@@@@@@@@ ending  tester")    
--end
return commandArray

This way I can change the code, press the test button, and see what happens.....trial-and-error, but it's fun!

apologies yes == was 1 = to much.

quick copy and past error


Thanks Manjh to assist here!

Grrr it worked. But does someone can tell me if i can use Scene/Group into a device changed? Tried it but don't work.
Have some scenes and when the scene is on, i also want update a user variable.

[freijn]

Please post your code , so we can understand what you are looking for?

I have found this :

commandArray['Scene:Livingroom']='On' -- remember, Scene cannot be turned Off!

The comment at the end is a little 'disturbing'

Turn on groep All-Off then user variable must goto 1. When turn off then user variable must goto 0

Code: Select all

commandArray = {}
if (Devicechanged["Group:All-Off"] == "On") then
   commandArray['Variable:All-Off"] = "1"
   
elseif (Devicechanged["Group:All-Off"] == "Off") then
    uservariables["All Off"] = "0"

    end
return commandArray

With a switch it is working. But want remove the switch and do some actions directly on the ON/OFF from a group

[freijn]

Then let us know which action please? So we can try to suggest you.

The code you pasted , is from your memory or from your system? As I believe you have some errors in..

That is a LUA script inside Domoticz. And yes its not working. Thats why i ask if i can use a scene or group as trigger ... the IF action

I do not recognize the "Devicechaed" in your script.

According to my knowledge that is not a valid statement... or I am mistaken ?

sorry was a typo must be devicechanged but then its not working
