looking for a text-query function for a text device

Post by jluc2808 »

hi ,

i want to send a message to a smartled_messenger (material with some led that could display a message scrolling)
so i want to add a device which could open a window to allow to type the text which will be sent to ledmessenger.

i have a DzVents scripts which listen to an update of the device and will send the https , but i'am looking for the text-query itself ?

is there any program that will get this functionality ?

Try domoticz :D
Probably not exactly what you are looking for but you could use a domoticz uservariable or the description field of a dummy switch. Both can be picked up by dzVents.
Debian buster, bullseye on RPI-4, Intel NUC.
dz Beta, Z-Wave, RFLink, RFXtrx433e, P1, Youless, Hue, Yeelight, Xiaomi, MQTT

yes , thanks you're right it works with a user variable, it doesn't run with the field description (the trigger isn't activate, it reset the dummy switch, but doesn't modify the state as a changed state) but my main question is there a widget that popup "enter a text " to get the contents with a WAF skin ?
