Blocky to lua

[Varazir]

Hello

I have 2 blocky event that works as I like them to do but I like to execute a shell script when this event is triggered and what I can understand can't be done with blocky
I have never worked with LUA, done some bash scripting that is all.

I guess I can learn LUA but what I have read feels nothing that I'm looking for.

Hallo Varazir

i would it write it in LUA :


ComputerConsumption = tonumber(otherdevices_svalues['ComputerConsumption'])
if ComputerConsumption < '13' and ComputerConsumption > '1' then
wait 60000
commandArray['Variable:Computer'] = 'Off'
end


OnkyoConsumtion = tonumber(otherdevices_svalues['Onkyo Consumtion'])
OpenelecConsumption = tonumber(otherdevices_svalues['Openelec Consumption'])
If OnkyoConsumtion < '5' and OnkyoConsumtion > '0' and OpenelecConsumption < '1' and OpenelecConsumption > '0' then
commandArray['TV'] = 'Off'
end

the command "Wait 60000" are not avaibele in Lua. I would it do with a "delay Funktion " in the Switch Propperties.

I think, the TV is never go Off because, there is no value between >0 and <1.

Code: Select all

local clock = os.clock
function sleep(n)  -- seconds
   local t0 = clock()
   while clock() - t0 <= n do
   end
end

I think, the TV is never go Off because, there is no value between >0 and <1.

Hmm, It's due to the raspberry PI consumes 2.2W when running and about 0.4 W when it's turned off

I'm using non standard notification system, going to call a bash script that pushes out a msg to my phone.

Code: Select all

If ComputerConsumption < 15 and ComputerConsumption > 0; then 
         execute  scrip/notification.sh "Computer" "#Domoticz" "Computer is shutdown, powering down in 20 seconds" &
         sleep 20
         If ComputerConsumption < 15 and ComputerConsumption > 0; then 
                  sleep 5
                  set computer = off
         else
                  execute  scrip/notification.sh "Computer" "#Domoticz" "Computer is online again"
                  exit
         fi
fi

You could actually execute scripts from blocky using this hack:

Add an OpenURL action with URL:

Code: Select all

127.0.0.1:8080/json.htm?type=command&param=execute_script&direct=true&scriptname=myscript.sh&scriptparams=123

The script ~/domoticz/scripts/myscript.sh will then be executed with parameters 123

Happy coding!

How can I add space to the parameters?

...
ComputerConsumption = tonumber(otherdevices_svalues['ComputerConsumption'])
if ComputerConsumption < '13' and ComputerConsumption > '1' then
wait 60000
commandArray['Variable:Computer'] = 'Off'
end

If you would introduce a delay in a LUA script, Domoticz will freeze untili that delay has past. So don't do it. Don't use that os.clock delay trick.
The switch delay function might be an option.
You may also issue command['Computer']='Off AFTER 60'

Take a look at the domoticz wiki page 'Events'.

Hmm, honestly I can't remember why I needed this.

I guess I can do a workaround with OpenURL. creating a "script" that calls my other script so I don't need any parameters.
or simpler with just one parameter "computer" "tv" etc and then the full command line in the file.
