if statment not working lua

hi can anyone explaine why the if statement if waarde == 280 then wind = "N" is not working
we get the value of the device but the update(wind) in idx 8 is always "W"

commandArray = {}
wind="W"

-- loop through all the changed devices
for deviceName,deviceValue in pairs(devicechanged) do
print ("Device based event fired on '"..deviceName.."', value '"..tostring(deviceValue).."'");

if (deviceName=='windmeter') then
waardes = tostring(deviceValue)
end
if (deviceName=='wind') then
waarde = tonumber(deviceValue)
if waarde == 280 then wind = "N"
else wind = "NW"
end
end
print(waardes)
print(waarde)
commandArray['UpdateDevice']='8|sValue|0;'..wind..';'..waardes..';0;0;0'

end
return commandArray

I see you test for 2 different devicenames and for both of those different devices set the same domotics device. I would think that the result will be that you update it 2 times and thus only contain the information of the last device. right?

This is because you set waarde to nil in your script. Have a look at this one.

Code: Select all

commandArray = {}
wind="W"

-- loop through all the changed devices
for deviceName,deviceValue in pairs(devicechanged) do
   
    if deviceName == 'DarkSky wind'  then
        print ("Device based event fired on '"..deviceName.."', value '"..tostring(deviceValue).."'");

        if deviceName == 'DarkSky wind' then
            waardes = tostring(deviceValue)
        end
    
        if deviceName == 'DarkSky wind' then
            waarde = tonumber(deviceValue) -- this cannot work as deviceValue is something like '157.00;SSE;6;7;12.3;12.3'
            print("waarde: " .. tostring(waarde) ) -- nil
            
            waarde = tonumber(deviceValue:match("([^;]+)")) -- get the value before the first ;
            print("waarde: " .. tostring(waarde) )
            if waarde == 280 then 
                wind = "N"
            else 
                wind = "NW"
            end 
        end 
        print("waardes: " .. waardes )
        print("waarde: " .. tostring(waarde) )
        print("wind: " .. wind )
    end
end

return commandArray

hi Waaren

Thanks for the reply

The value we get from our selfmade windvaan is for example 300
It is always a 3 digit number

We have 2 sensors one for the wind direction and one for windspeed

we want to convert the digit to for example to NE

then we want the 2 values send to idx 8

Can you you add this small Lua script and let it execute for a couple of minutes. It will give some information on what values are in your wind devices. It might help in creating the solution you look for.

Code: Select all

commandArray = {}

for deviceName,deviceValue in pairs(devicechanged) do
    if deviceName:match('Wind') or deviceName:match('wind')  then
        print("waarde: " .. deviceName .. " " .. tostring(deviceValue) )
        for key, value in pairs (devicechanged) do
            print(key .. ": ==>> " .. value )
        end
    end
end

return commandArray

Hi Waaren,
this is the result from the script you gave us

Code: Select all

2019-06-05 19:46:09.846 Status: LUA: windmeter: ==>> -0
2019-06-05 19:46:10.801 Status: Warning: Expecting svalue with at least 5 elements separated by semicolon, 1 elements received ("280"), notification not sent (Hardware: 2 - Dummy, ID: 82001, Unit: 1, Type: 56 - Wind, SubType: 1 - WTGR800)

2019-06-05 19:46:10.948 Status: Warning: Expecting svalue with at least 5 elements separated by semicolon, 1 elements received ("0"), notification not
now we want to convert 280

Code: Select all

if (waarde and waarde > 304 and  waarde and waarde < 308)  then  wind ="N"
        elseif (waarde and waarde > 277  and  waarde and waarde < 283) then wind ="NE"
        elseif (waarde and waarde > 255  and  waarde and waarde < 261) then wind ="E"    
        elseif (waarde and waarde > 236  and  waarde and waarde < 242) then wind ="SE"    
        elseif (waarde and waarde > 220  and  waarde and waarde < 226) then wind ="S"    
        elseif (waarde and waarde > 206  and  waarde and waarde < 212) then wind ="SW"    
        elseif (waarde and waarde > 193  and  waarde and waarde < 199) then wind ="W"    
        elseif (waarde and waarde > 182  and  waarde and waarde < 188) then wind ="NW"
so far so good
the next thing we want is the value form windmeter

Code: Select all

            if (deviceName=='windmeter') then
                waardes = tostring(deviceValue)
            end
this is now 0 there is no wind
stil so far so good
the next thing is to get it into domoticz idx 8

Code: Select all

commandArray['UpdateDevice']='8|sValue|0;'..wind..';'..waardes..';0;0;0'
en then it fails

this is the complete script

Code: Select all

commandArray = {}
waardes = 100

-- loop through all the changed devices
for deviceName,deviceValue in pairs(devicechanged) do
    print ("Device based event fired on '"..deviceName.."', value '"..tostring(deviceValue).."'");
   
   if (deviceName=='wind') then
       waarde = tonumber(deviceValue)
       
      
 
        if (waarde and waarde > 304 and  waarde and waarde < 308)  then  wind ="N"
        elseif (waarde and waarde > 277  and  waarde and waarde < 283) then wind ="NE"
        elseif (waarde and waarde > 255  and  waarde and waarde < 261) then wind ="E"    
        elseif (waarde and waarde > 236  and  waarde and waarde < 242) then wind ="SE"    
        elseif (waarde and waarde > 220  and  waarde and waarde < 226) then wind ="S"    
        elseif (waarde and waarde > 206  and  waarde and waarde < 212) then wind ="SW"    
        elseif (waarde and waarde > 193  and  waarde and waarde < 199) then wind ="W"    
        elseif (waarde and waarde > 182  and  waarde and waarde < 188) then wind ="NW"    
 
    end
            if (deviceName=='windmeter') then
                waardes = tostring(deviceValue)
            end
        
end
        print(wind)  
        print(waarde)
        print(waardes)
       
        commandArray['UpdateDevice']='8|sValue|0;'..wind..';'..waardes..';0;0;0'
 
end
return commandArray
so what is wrong?

Sorry but I pass for the standard Lua stuff here. The script below is a possible solution using dzvents.

When not yet familiar with dzVents please start with reading Get started before implementing. It will only take a couple of minutes.
Special attention please for "In Domoticz go to Setup > Settings > Other and in the section EventSystem make sure the checkbox 'dzVents disabled' is not checked. Also make sure that in the Security section in the settings you allow 127.0.0.1 to not need a password. dzVents uses that port to send certain commands to Domoticz. Finally make sure you have set your current location in Setup > Settings > System > Location, otherwise there is no way to determine nighttime/daytime state."

Code: Select all

-- Transfer wind
return {
            on = { devices = { 'wind' }}, 
           
       logging = {  level = domoticz.LOG_DEBUG,
                    marker =  'wind' },

    execute = function(dz, item)
        local waardes = 10
        local windDirection = item.rawData[1] or -1  -- don't know what the devicetype of wind is so assume direction is rawData[1]
        local targetDevice = dz.devices(8) -- Type wind

        local function val2Wind(degrees)
            if degrees > 304 then return 'N' end
            if degrees > 277 then return 'NE' end
            if degrees > 255 then return 'SE' end
            if degrees > 236 then return 'S' end
            if degrees > 220 then return 'SW' end
            if degrees > 206 then return 'W' end
            if degrees > 193 then return 'NW' end
            return '-'
        end

        targetDevice.updateWind( windDirection, val2Wind(tonumber(windDirection)), waardes, waardes, 0 , 0 )

    end
