Domoticz

Well done. Looking forward to volume 2!

This video was really useful to me, once I found it! How about a link in the wiki? Anyway, I've made a basic index on the topics covered:
1:40 index in Wiki
2:19 open Domoticz example
3:00 adjust Settings
5:21 open blank dzVents
7:50 living room script -> switches kitchen on
10:44 running the living room switch
11:40 explain devices
12:10 explain device object
14:50 print living.state
17:00 if statement
19:40 dimto(25)
21:15 hallway script, using a timer as a trigger
23:30 hallway flash light every minute
25:55 other timer possibilities
28:50 devices plus timer in on section
31:17 the domoticz object
34:45 the domoticz methods
35:00 using print
35:20 execute URL
35:50 make sound
36:10 device object
36:58 text object with two strings combined
39:20 use device ID instead of name

I love the video!
I have now finally converted all my Blockly scripts to Dzvents!

Hi, is there a very very basic tutorial for someone that has no none nada programming experience, like a hand held walkthrough.

I would love to learn, but kicking around the 50+ mark and starting to find learning new stuff difficult.

Cheers

dzVents is almost completely Lua so I suggest you begin with a Lua tutorial. this tutorial could be a good start.

Cheers I will take a look...

Thanks for the video. For starters it is really great!

I thought id finaly go and try dzvents, so this could be a good starting point.
Great video, what drives me crazy after hours of trying different combinations, i get stuck at 10:42. I think i did the same as in the video.
I can see it writes the file. I can see i initiated a switch command (1379/Living/On), but there is no log showing.
I do this: If i add before end: " print('test test') " is see the "test test" in the log.
What am i doing wrong?

Version: 2022.1 (build 14352)
dzVents Version: 3.1.8
Python Version: 3.8.10 (default, Mar 15 2022, 12:22:08) [GCC 9.4.0]

I would say you need to check your log level.
Either change it in the settings, on the script return array, or locally in the domoticz.log second parameter:

like this ? probably wrong, still nothing.

Thanks for the help, i give up, ive been trying for a few hours now, and stuck at some stupid logging thing, let alone the rest of the dzvents stuff.
Thanks for the pointer and help. If i have new energy i will try again.

I want structured text implemented in domoticz

VAR
activate: BOOL;
living: BOOL;
light: BOOL;
END_VAR

IF activate AND living THEN
light:=TRUE;
END_IF

The language is not much of importance, it is the library that comes with it.
For your STX wish, LUA looks a lot like it, if you mean STX from IEC 61131-3
