os.execute and http link

[poudenes]

Hi Al,

Is it possible to have this in a dzvents script:

os.execute('http://127.0.0.1:8081/json.htm?type=com ... hite=false')

I want send some values to my milights to give them colours

openURL()

Code: Select all

openURL("http://127.0.0.1:8081/json.htm?type=command&param=setcolbrightnessvalue&idx=3&hue=18&brightness=50&iswhite=false")

?

[poudenes]

find out that it has to be this

Code: Select all

os.execute('curl "http://127.0.0.1:8081/json.htm?type=command&param=setcolbrightnessvalue&idx=3&hue=18&brightness=50&iswhite=false"')

If I'm right os.execute() will wait on the HTTP response and in the meantime will "hang" domoticz and prevent other processes to run.
The preferred way to do this is with:
openURL(url)

or' in dzVents;
domoticz.openURL(url)

Just my2 cents
