I have some bash scripts that I would like to convert to dzvents that update devices through udevice such that any scripts are not executed and the device state is only updated (these are dummy devices where the state sometimes gets out of sync).

--   udevice.lua

return { 
    on = {   devices   =   {"your trigger device"}},   -- trigger

    execute = function(dz,trigger)
        local myDeviceIDX    = 249                      -- myDevice    = idx of myDevice
    
        local function  updateDeviceSilent(idx,parm)
                local api = dz.settings['Domoticz url'] .. "/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=".. idx ..
                            "&nvalue=" .. parm .. "&svalue=0"
                dz.openURL({ url = api, method = "GET" }).silent()
        end
        
        updateDeviceSilent(myDeviceIDX,1)
    end
}
