how to use seticon function? [Solved]

[papoo]

hello
i try to use this function in a script :
setIcon(iconNumber): Function. 2.4.17 method to update the icon for devices. Supports command options.
like this
device.switchOn().seticon(105)

but i have this error : attempt to call a nil value (field 'seticon')

i know how i can replace with a json request but i want to work in pure lua if is possible.

the method is setIcon() -- case matters !

i try it also
attempt to call a nil value (field 'setIcon')

I don't write the function correctly surely

Hard to tell without knowing what device is and without seeing the script...
How did you find the Icon number 105 ?

it work fine with this json request

Code: Select all

dz.settings['Domoticz url'] .. '/json.htm?type=setused&used=true&name=' .. dz.utils.urlEncode(device.name) ..
            '&description=' .. dz.utils.urlEncode(device.description) .. -- Required. If not set it will be blanked out.
            '&idx=' .. device.id .. 
            '&switchtype=' .. device.switchTypeValue ..
            '&customimage=' .. iconNumber

but i want to use the setIcon dzents function
like this

Code: Select all

device.setIcon(iconNumber)

i try also

Code: Select all

device.switchOn().setIcon(iconNumber)

my selector switch have 9 levels, level 0 not show
custom icon for level 10 to 80 :
[10] = 128,
[20] = 129,
[30] = 130,
[40] = 131,
[50] = 132,
[60] = 133,
[70] = 134,
[80] = 135,

but i want to use the setIcon dzVents function

Can you please share the complete script, the relevant loglines, the device type and subtype and the content of <domoticz dir>/dzVents/runtime/device-adapters/generic_device.lua ?

That will help me finding the root cause of your problem. Thx

I tested my script again to collect the info to answer you, and it works now.
Unfortunately,
I don't know what was wrong.
sorry for inconvenience, thanks.
please, can you tell me if there is a possibility to display the name of Custom icons and their number with dzvents or json?

Good to hear it is working now.
I don't know how to get the name of Custom icons. maybe if you add one or two an look in the database table CustomImages you can see a relation that make sense to you.
