hi there, i'm looking for a bit of guidance. i'm new to domo, but not to python, and i'm trying to get a simple python script connected so that i can start building proper logic with the JSON APIs and such...

i'm in ubuntu, latest version of domo. simple dummy hardware, simple dummy switch. in the scripts/python directory i've made test.py:

Code: Select all

#!usr/bin/python
import domoticz
domoticz.log("script")
domoticz.error("error")

doesn't get more simple than that. on the switch i have on/off wired:

script://home/dave/domoticz/scripts/python/test.py

script is set to executable:
-rwxrwxrwx 1 dave dave 225 Oct 29 22:10 test.py

"which python" shows py 2.7 installed appropriately at /usr/bin/python
python --version shows 2.7.12

i get *nothing* when i click the switch in the UI. i see it's clicking, because there are log entries, but i get no indication my script is being run.

i changed the URL of the script to have three slashes, and that throws a script error 32512 which i believe means it's not finding the script appropriately, so back to double slashes. the log shows:

2016-10-30 12:01:43.025 User: dz initiated a switch command (1/test switch/Off)
2016-10-30 12:01:43.025 (test) Light/Switch (test switch)
2016-10-30 12:01:47.510 User: dz initiated a switch command (1/test switch/On)
2016-10-30 12:01:47.510 (test) Light/Switch (test switch)

this is the most simple of the simple. yet, i'm stuck.

i'd appreciate some guidance, apologies for such a dumb one.

Try changing that to:

Code: Select all

script:///home/dave/domoticz/scripts/python/test.py

thanks for the response. i tried that already, and mentioned such:

2016-10-30 15:48:01.603 Executing script: /home/dave/domoticz/scripts/python/test.py
sh: 1: /home/dave/domoticz/scripts/python/test.py: not found
2016-10-30 15:48:01.605 Error: Error executing script command (/home/dave/domoticz/scripts/python/test.py). returned: 32512

my understanding is that 32512 means "i can't find the script."

Have you tried from command line if it is working? Because if you copied the actual script to the first post, isn't there a fault in the shebang:

Code: Select all

#!usr/bin/python

should be:

Code: Select all

#!/usr/bin/python

For the rest of the lines I'm not sure should they work, I guess they should

For me it has always needed to be three slashes in the script:///...
