Events system thread (questions and feedback)

[sebquid]

I tried what you said and it is not working also. We can not save events with such url.

[Skippiemanz]

Does anyone have the solution for this problem?

[CopyCatz]

I put a fix in 996, could you test please?

[Skippiemanz]

Thanks, i will check a soon as an update is placed online

[Skippiemanz]

Unfortunetly i still got the same error in rev 999.

Any ideas?

[CopyCatz]

You have to open your event and save it again for the new url storage to kick in. It works this way with most event fixes/upgrades.

[Skippiemanz]

I deleted the event and try to create the ne event but still unable to save

Hello

"On" and "Off" function properly. (inverted blinds)
"Open" / "Close" doesn´t switch.

Events also work if they are not activated. (Text is red).
Only when all events disabled, they are turned off.
This is very difficult when testing.

Hi,

I have created an event using the block editor, it goes like this:
If "Höyrysauna" temperature < 26 do set "ventilation" on

both above devices are working nicely and I can get the temperature and control the ventilation, but once I activate the event
i start to get following log entries every time the "device" sends new temp and humidity information:

Error: Thu Sep 5 23:44:31 2013 Lua script error: [string "result = 0; weekday = os.date('*t')['wday']; ..."]:1: attempt to index global 'humiditydevice' (a nil value)
Error: Thu Sep 5 23:44:31 2013 Lua script error: [string "result = 0; weekday = os.date('*t')['wday']; ..."]:1: attempt to index global 'temperaturedevice' (a nil value)
Thu Sep 5 23:44:31 2013 (RFX-Dongle) Temperature + Humidity (Höyrysauna)

Just did an update, so domoticz version is the latest available.

Could you help me out on this one ?

[CopyCatz]

Can you post a screenshot of your blockly event please?

Some of us are trying to get xbmc and domoticz to interact with each other. The plugin in XBMC works great to interact with domoticz but it does not work the other way around.
When I try to pause XBMC with the following url it works but when I attach this URL to a blocky example and a dummy switch we receive the following error.

Code: Select all

http://(user:password)@(ip address xbmc):(port)/jsonrpc?request={"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Player.PlayPause", "params": { "playerid": 1 }, "id": 1}

Of course I replaced the user, password and ip with my own credentials.

Code: Select all

Fetching url: xbmc:[email protected]:80/jsonrpc?request={"jsonrpc":"2.0
Error: Wed Sep 4 03:23:06 2013 Malformed action sequence!

I already tried to replace the comma's in the url with %2c but I still receive the same error. Is this type of URL not possible with blocky? Or is it to long? I'm running V1.1009.

[Keptenkurk]

Piotr, how about calling the url with curl from a shell script and call this script from your lua script? Could be a work around for the time being...

Same problem here
error in the log

HI,

Some more information on this one.
seems that this happens only when I'm trying to evaluate humidity and it actually had something to do with my device
after swapping the thermometer, everything seems to work nicely.

Hi everyone. New member/user and first post.
I tried to control bathroom exhaust fan. I have switch to switch it on and off.
What I liked to do is use delay for fan. If I switch it on it runs 30 minutes and stop and also 'turn' switch off.
If I liked to stop it earlier I just turn switch off.
I tried to do Event, but it seems that when delay is set it is impossible to reset it again?

Here is simple block diagram where fan is set to run 1 min.

EDIT: Now when I have stared my plan for a while it seems to be mission impossible...

- v1.1023: Scenes and groups on/off/active/inactive via events, fixed bug where inactive event would still trigger
when multiple events apply. Comma now supported in event OpenURL. events now triggered by security state change
implemented script_security_name.lua for sec panel triggers in lua.

[NiklasO]

I have no Scenes/Groups in the list.. but I DO have some groups.
Sorry if this has been answered beore..

weird, they are retrieved using the standard json.htm?type=scenes&order=Name. Can you post the output of that api call?

Code: Select all

{
   "result" : [

         "Favorite" : 1,
         "HardwareID" : 1,
         "LastUpdate" : "2013-09-23 22:15:49",
         "Name" : "Vardagsrum, lampor",
         "Status" : "Off",
         "Timers" : "false",
         "Type" : "Group",
         "idx" : "3"
      },
      {
         "Favorite" : 1,
         "HardwareID" : 1,
         "LastUpdate" : "2013-09-25 06:38:01",
         "Name" : "Fönsterbelysning",
         "Status" : "Off",
         "Timers" : "true",
         "Type" : "Group",
         "idx" : "4"
      }
   ],
   "status" : "OK",
   "title" : "Scenes"
}

Does this look right btw?

When done with groups it should turn the scene/group on when the power goes down below 1400mW and groupstatus = Off
The other way around when over 1500mW.

Also,
The event i posted in my last url does not work.
With the event active, manually turning on "Fönsterlampa, kök" this happens in the log:

Code: Select all

Error: Wed Sep 25 13:26:34 2013 Lua script error: [string "result = 0; weekday = os.date('*t')['wday']; ..."]:1: ')' expected near 'comparevariable'
Error: Wed Sep 25 13:26:34 2013 Lua script error: [string "result = 0; weekday = os.date('*t')['wday']; ..."]:1: ')' expected near 'comparevariable'
Wed Sep 25 13:26:33 2013 (RFXtrx) Lighting 2 (Fönster, kök)
Wed Sep 25 13:26:34 2013 (RFXtrx) Receiver/Transmitter Message
subtype = Transmitter Response
Sequence nbr = 3
response = ACK, data correct transmitted

With the event disabled, turning on gives me this:

Code: Select all

Wed Sep 25 13:27:03 2013 (RFXtrx) Lighting 2 (Fönster, kök)
Wed Sep 25 13:27:03 2013 (RFXtrx) Receiver/Transmitter Message
subtype = Transmitter Response
Sequence nbr = 4
response = ACK, data correct transmitted

Works as it should. But as I said. Not with the event activated.

The event does nothing if I leave the lamp on and waits for it to turn it off.
