domoticz.time.matchesRule('at 23:00-06:00')?

[xces]

So last night a burglar walked through my garden, i didn't wake up until my neighbor had called the cops, who came an hour later and then knocked at my front door.

I now have this kind of dzVents script:
lux < 300 then garden lights on
lux > 300 then garden lights off

So now my garden is practically lit with 20% of light all night.

What i want to achieve is this:
when lux < 300 then the lights should go on (at 20%)
instead from 23:00 until 06:00 the lights should be off (unless there is motion but i'll add that myself)

Basically the question is; does the domoticz.time.matchesRule() work with overlapping days? e.g. this:

Code: Select all

if (lux < 300) then
   if (domoticz.time.matchesRule('at 23:00-06:00')) then
      -- light off
   else
      -- light on at 20%
   end
end

Yes, this should work. I have a couple of unit-tests in the dzVents code that specifically test this.
But don't hold it against me if it doesn't

Please.. let me know if it doesn't (or does work out). Then we'll have some debugging to do.
