Events system thread (questions and feedback)

[Leeuwerik]

Could be, but that can only be confirmed by someone who knows the blockly specs and implementation.

Facts are:

• The multisensor device triggered the blockly event
• The value that must be assigned to the user variable in the block points to the Humidity value ("73"- 2nd position in the string), not to the device string that contains 3 values ("20.0;73;3")
• The assignment of the Temperature value "20.0 "to the user variable of type float in a similar blockly completes without errors.

Since the multisensor device triggered the event, I would expect that the blockly implementation uses something like devicechanged['devicename_Humidity'] instead of otherdevices[...]. My expectation is based on what I've read in the events documumentation.

Hello,

Is there a way to read the CO2 value ? otherdevices and _svalues does not report anything...

And more globally is it possible to have an otherdevices_nvalues[] in LUA so we could get all devices values with one or the other ?

thanks !

Hello,

I repost my question for this is still not solved, any idea ?

ok found in the code, I guess the wiki has to be updated:

print(devicechanged['AqCO2_Utility'])
print(otherdevices_utility['AqCO2_Utility'])

I am reposting this here, since in the original post, no comments were made after a few days, perhaps that was in the wrong spot;

My Smartwares radiator valves that I am using, don't show up in blocky. I mean, they are listed, but only as switches or utility, and in an event they do not update. So, I have this very simple event;

event.png (13.64 KiB) Viewed 10507 times

But although it triggers, it never changes the value of the smartware valve. If I set it manually via the utility tab in the web interface, it works just fine. Is this something I am doing wrong? Should the valve be available as radiator?

Hi all,

For the first time I faced a limitation of blockly.
Using the wiki and an article in Computer Totaal I managed to create the following user variables:

Knipsel 1.PNG (73.06 KiB) Viewed 10499 times

I want to use user variable "Season" , no success! The following event will not work.

Knipsel 3.PNG (30.34 KiB) Viewed 10499 times

1. What am I doing wrong?
2. I saw the next block:

Knipsel 4.PNG (2.42 KiB) Viewed 10499 times

It would be nice if there is a similar block for season.

Thanks in advance!

PS: Yesterday I posted a similar post in viewtopic.php?f=23&t=7518&p=75842&hilit=winter#p75008
This place seems better.

Hi,

I try to use a Pushover event with Blocky.
The following Blocky is not working.

notify.JPG (31.69 KiB) Viewed 10351 times

But when I change the "notify" into a switch command it works well...
Any suggestions?

thanks

[gizmocuz]

Can you try with 'High priority'

I use this selector switch for this which I set with this lua script:

Code: Select all

-- script_time_seizoenen.lua
-- Dit script verandert de waarde van de keuzeschakelaar/selector 'Seizoen' naar het huidige seizoen
-- Lente, Zomer, Herfst en Winter
-- De seizoenen verlopen als volgt:
-- Lente (level 10): 21 maart t/m 20 juni
-- Zomer (level 20): 21 juni t/m 20 september
-- Herfst (level 30): 21 september t/m 20 december
-- Winter (level 40): 21 december t/m 20 maart
-- Het script wordt elke minuut aangeroepen maar triggert alleen op de 21e van Maart, Juni, September en December of als de keuzeschakelaar/selector 'Seizoen' niet het goede seizoen blijkt aan te geven (in geval deze handmatig veranderd is)

local seizoen_schakelaar = 'Seizoen'
local seizoen_lente = 'Set Level: 10'
local seizoen_zomer = 'Set Level: 20'
local seizoen_herfst = 'Set Level: 30'
local seizoen_winter = 'Set Level: 40'

commandArray = {}

time = os.time()
month = tonumber(os.date('%m', time))
day = tonumber(os.date('%d', time))

if (((month == 03 and day >= 21) or (month == 04 and day >= 01) or (month == 05 and day >= 01) or (month == 06 and day < 21)) and otherdevices[seizoen_schakelaar] ~= 'Lente')
    then
        commandArray[seizoen_schakelaar]=seizoen_lente
        print('<font color="green">Het seizoen is veranderd, het is nu lente</font>')

elseif (((month == 06 and day >= 21) or (month == 07 and day >= 01) or (month == 08 and day >= 01) or (month == 09 and day < 21)) and otherdevices[seizoen_schakelaar] ~= 'Zomer')
    then
        commandArray[seizoen_schakelaar]=seizoen_zomer
        print('<font color="green">Het seizoen is veranderd, het is nu zomer</font>')
        
elseif (((month == 09 and day >= 21) or (month == 10 and day >= 01) or (month == 11 and day >= 01) or (month == 12 and day < 21)) and otherdevices[seizoen_schakelaar] ~= 'Herfst')
    then
        commandArray[seizoen_schakelaar]=seizoen_herfst
        print('<font color="green">Het seizoen is veranderd, het is nu herfst</font>')

elseif ((month == 12 and day >= 21) or ((month == 01 and day >= 01) or (month == 2 and day >= 1) or (month == 03 and day < 21)) and otherdevices[seizoen_schakelaar] ~= 'Winter')
    then
        commandArray[seizoen_schakelaar]=seizoen_winter
        print('<font color="green">Het seizoen is veranderd, het is nu winter</font>')
        
end

return commandArray

perhaps this helps

Hi Tozzke,

Thanks for your attention. I already found a similar solution. I am interested in the icon that you use. Maybe you have even more in the same style .

Can it be confirmed that it is not possible to read the value of a variable in blockly? and do an action based on that?
Tried this without luck, but on the variable page I can see that the variable (integer) value changes between 0 and 1

You can read the variable, but it won't be a trigger for blockly. I always use the variable as a double check in an AND situation.

[HBrandt]

@jake thank you for confirming. Can you show an example just to be sure what you mean.

Mvh Henrik

[jake]

No, I can't at the moment, but in the IF statement I use another trigger together with the variable in an AND.

[HBrandt]

Weird, I have tried that but doesn't seem to work on my system. Maybe virtual switches is the way to do it. Although I feel that is the wrong way and messy too.

Is it bug or feature?

[gizmocuz]

It is designed like this

Is it possible to make only variable trigger for IF condition in future releases?

[korniza]

Strange situation I found on the latests betas. Now I run Version: 3.6028 Build Hash: 4a938fc but I found it on 2 previous beta versions.
When I have a variable on blocky, it did not trigger this blocky when variable is changes. I tried to change by hand this variable on User Variables and worked as should be and this blocky was triggered.
But when it is performed by domoticz, nothing happen.
I tested also to change the way that blocky is triggered (All/device/uservariable), but it's still no action.
Does anybody has this issue or is it only me?

Same on v3.5877 release.

I really need it as I try to build an AI alarm system
