Then you have to wait until the master guru himself returns in the forum.
The last time I synchronized was yesterday morning, no errors whatsoever then

maybe there something in my system...
Just to understand if I am doig right:
Code: Select all
Copy the following to the Domoticz script folder: /path/to/domoticz/scripts/lua:
event_helpers.lua
script_time_main.lua
script_device_main.lua
Domoticz.lua
dzVents_settings.lua and
the folder scripts
Here is written event_helper.lua but the file in the zip is EventHelpers.lua (same name already exist in the /domoticz/scripts/lua folder and I let this one overwrite the other).
This is the only things to do except for modification in the dzVents_settings.lua), right?
Thanks

I missed the s in the post, sorry.
In any case I tried with both, event_helpers.lua and EventHelpers.lua like now you can find in the GitHub folder.
I'll wait for some news...

But you are sure you tried the 0.9.13 branch on github?
And start fresh empty dir and so?

Grrr. notifications for new posts is still not working well.. so I miss new posts here every now and then, sorry about that ..
Indeed.. master branch is currently in flux. I'm refactoring stuff so that installing is even easier (and I wrote 120+ unit-tests for it this weekend for future stability (and caught a few bugs while doing this)).
So, yeah, stick to the tags when installing for now. In the future I will make the master branch the stable one and do dev stuff in another branch.

Upgrading dzVents

[smug mode] I have to say that all I do to snarf the latest version is: download the zip, unpack it to an empty directory then copy the whole kit and kaboodle EXCEPT THE SETTINGS file to the domoticz/scripts/lua on my Pi
One day I'll come a cropper because Garry will have changed the settings file, but until then ...

Today I finished refactoring dzVents. As I said earlier, I wrote around 130 unit tests for the code and I moved most of the dzVents code to a subfolder. I also added some new functionality (from the history.txt):
- Added SMS method.
- Added toggleSwitch() method to devices that support it.
- Added more switch states that control device.bState (e.g. on == true, open == true etc)
- Added secondsAgo next to minutesAgo to the device.lastUpdate attribute
And I updated the documentation mostly regarding the
instructions on how to install it (read that part!!!).
So, my intention is that this will become version 1.0 but before releasing it I ask anyone who dares
to test the
master branch (perhaps make a copy of your entire lua folder so you can easily restore it). I have tested it locally here and all seems fine.
Fingers crossed

Lua editor in domoticz is fully compatible with this?

I Will test tomorrow and put an install script for it in my script.

You mean the one that runs in the browser? I don't think so. dzVents has it's own mechanism to figure out which script needs to be called (based on the triggers and active state and timer states). The problem is that the scripts that can be edited inside Domoticz don't live on the file system but in the database. That means that the script dispatchers from dzVents cannot find them and cannot call them. You could pass the domoticz object to these scripts with a bit of effort for easy controlling of the domoticz devices but you would miss some part of the fun.
It would have been nice if the script editor in Domoticz would have stored the scripts on the filesystem as was suggested by a couple of people. That would have made this an awesome combination I guess.
Nice!

Can you print the package path right after it is constructed in de main scripts?
Are you sure you did exactly as described in the readme? Replaced all the files with the new ones?
There should be a folder dzEvents inside the lua folder.

In script_device_main.lua or script_time_main.lua at line 7 add
and look in the logs what the result is.
And devices.lua contains the data that is fetched from Domoticz through http for additional data like battery status. You should be able to remove it. If you have set ['Enable http fetch'] = true in the settings file then it will automatically be refetched after a while.

It seems that on the Domoticz image no lua 5.2 is installed.
There is no /usr/local/share/lua on my system
The file '/home/pi/domoticz/scripts/lua/dzVents/utils.lua' is named
Utils.lua
Installed from the zip file.

These package paths are provided by the lua system itself instead of the stuff that I add to it.
I commited some changes in master. Could you try this? The utils.lua file should be with a capital now and both _main.lua files have been changed as well.
