Notification script [Solved]

[Larsoss]

Hey,

I have another question about scripting. I have a number of dummy switches that I have sent a notification. now it is so that a script is running that switches my lamp. which causes me to get a notification quite often.

now I thought it might be possible to make 1 dzvents script in which I put all my idx of my switches of which I want a notification and if it changes status on / off then a notification via the script comes via telegram.

and maybe even adjust the notification.

so at idx 15 is my living room lamp and when it comes on the notification comes "lamp on" and when my dummy "ping television" comes on the notification "the tv is on" comes on.

who can help me in the right direction?

[Tjalling94]

You can also check the current state of your light.

Code: Select all

if domoticz.devices('lamp').state == 'Off' then
   domoticz.devices('lamp').switchOn();
end

That's enough to prevent duplicate notifications

[Larsoss]

Ok. But still want to make a script with the notifications

[kimot]

And why script for this "switch custom message", when you can write notification directly in switch notification tab?

Did you have a look at the 'System-alive-check' script which you can find here to see howto set it up in your own script?

because i get to many notifications, even when there is nothing change's... it still sending me the same notification.

Almost Waaren, still no meassage to telegram.. but you get the point of what i was searching for.

Almost Waaren, still no meassage to telegram.. but you get the point of what i was searching for.

I tested the script before posting and it works for me. Did you add the required text in the description field for the devices at hand?
Do you see any messages in the log?

I added some extra log statements in my original posted code. Please use this updated one and check the log. It might help to find why it is not working for you.

I really don't understand sorry .. and I also understand that you don't want to deliver everything in ready-made solutions .. but I really don't see what I'm forgetting .. I've tried to put text in everything, but stay now you get the message Text not found in description 'in the log.

Did you enter the exact text in the description field of the device like below? (Click on the edit button of the device in the switches tab to get to this screen)

Hey Waaren,

I have a new dummy with the seasons, it contains 4 selector switches that are triggered to the time of the year.

Now it is Autumn, for example. This works with the% value of 10,20,30,40.

Can I also process it in this script? So if a new season starts (winter for example) that there will also be a message about it?

[Jan Jansen]

While converting a blockly script (burglar alarm) I came across this thread. In the event of a burglary, it is relevant to know which door or window is opened. If that can be done via a notification, fantastic! This concerns specific devices under specific circumstances.

Code: Select all

return {
	on = {
		devices = {
			'Voordeur',                                         -- door contact
			'Woonkamer (voorzijde)',                            -- door contact
			'Slaapkamer (voorzijde)',                           -- door contact
			'Keukendeur',                                       -- door contact
			'Inbraak keukendeur',                               -- dummy switch (on delay)
			'Schuurdeur',                                       -- door contact
			'Inbraak schuurdeur',                               -- dummy switch (on delay)
			'Beveiliging'                                       -- dummy selector levels 'Uit', 'Thuis' and 'Afwezig'
		}
	},
	
	logging =
    {
        level = domoticz.LOG_DEBUG, 
        marker = 'inbraak',
    },
	
	execute = function(dz, item)
	    local vd = dz.devices('Voordeur')
	    local wk = dz.devices('Woonkamer (voorzijde)')
	    local slpkmrvz = dz.devices('Slaapkamer (voorzijde)')
	    local kd = dz.devices('Keukendeur')
	    local inbkd = dz.devices('Inbraak keukendeur')
	    local sd = dz.devices('Schuurdeur')
	    local inbsd = dz.devices('Inbraak Schuurdeur')
	    local bev = dz.devices('Beveiliging')
	    local asinb = dz.devices('Alarmsignaal inbraak')
	    local iva = dz.devices('Inschakelvertraging alarm')     -- dummy switch on delay
	    
		if (vd.state == 'On' or wk.state == 'On' or slpkmrvz.state == 'On' or kd.state == 'On' or sd.state == 'On') and bev.state == 'Thuis' then
		    asinb.switchOn()
		    dz.notify('Inbraak (thuis)!!','   ??  geactiveerd',dz.PRIORITY_HIGH)
		end
		if (vd.state == 'On' or wk.state == 'On' or slpkmrvz.state == 'On' or inbkd.state == 'On' or inbsd.state == 'On') and iva.state == 'On' then
		    asinb.switchOn()
		    dz.notify('Inbraak (afwezig)!!','   ??   geactiveerd',dz.PRIORITY_HIGH)
		end
		if bev.state == 'Uit' and asinb == 'On' then
		    asinb.switchOff()
		    dz.notify('Reset alarm','Alarminstallatie gereset',dz.PRIORITY_HIGH)
		end    
	end
}

In case of bev.state == 'Thuis' it only concerns the devices 'Voordeur', Woonkamer (voorzijde), Slaapkamer (voorzijde), Keukendeur and Schuurdeur
In case iva.state == 'On' it only concerns the devices 'Voordeur', Woonkamer (voorzijde), Slaapkamer (voorzijde), Inbraak keukendeur and Inbraak schuurdeur.

Thanks in advance!

Can you try after changing

Code: Select all

'   ??   geactiveerd'

to

Code: Select all

item.name .. ' geactiveerd'
