Hi,

i try to combine a switch that executes
on script:///home/pi/domoticz/scripts/start_motion.sh
off script:///home/pi/domoticz/scripts/stop_motion.sh

with a script that executes the above motion switch on timed events ( groupOnTimer1 etc.)
so i can get rid off the two *.sh files and have the same logging (timed and manual)
So i first made a difference in the script between device triggering and timer triggering

Script is finished, but
1) I got an error "on info" that i don't understand and
2) when i turn the switch 'Bewegingsservice' On or off it always executes the ELSE part

I search for houws but i dont see it....

Code: Select all
    execute = function(dz,device,item,info)
}

You have 4 parameters in the function header but dzVents is only sending 3. So dz is correct, device = the item that triggered the script, and item = triggerinfo but info = nil

1st parm: The domoticz object.
This object gives you access to almost everything in your Domoticz system, including all methods to manipulate them—like modifying switches or sending notifications and some stuff added by dzVents C++ code.

2nd. parm: item
Depending on what actually triggered the script, item is either a:

device;
variable;
scene;
group;
timer;
security;
httpResponse.

3rd parm: triggerInfo
holds information about what triggered the script. The object has 3 attributes:

type: like Timer, Device, etc
trigger: the timer rule that triggered the script if the script was called due to a timer event, or the security state that triggered the security trigger rule.
scriptName: the name of the current script.

Yes and change device.state to item.state on 2 places in your script.

1) OK, info error is gone !
2) the right If's are executed
3) Only errors on the OS commands....

I don't see an osExecute function in your script. Could it be that you forgot to copy this function from one of the examples on this forum because you confused the calls to this user defined function with calls to the built in os.execute ?

example of user defined osExecute function. (Works in std Lua and in dzVents without modification)

Code: Select all

local function osExecute(cmd)
    local fileHandle     = assert(io.popen(cmd, 'r'))
    local commandOutput  = assert(fileHandle:read('*a'))
    local returnTable    = {fileHandle:close()}

    return commandOutput,returnTable[3]            -- rc[3] contains returnCode
end
