this script runs perfect when devices are used in the lookup table
if i want to use it with groups/scenes it does not work.

so if lookup contains devices and i use domoticz.devices it works
if lookup contains groups and i use domoticz.groups it does not work and the log complains about scenes/groups not existing but they do

Code: Select all

2019-07-01 17:52:30.048 Error: dzVents: Error: (2.4.24) There is no group or scene with that name or id: Woonkamerlampen. If you just created the scene or group you may have to restart Domoticz to make it become visible to dzVents.

i have read somewhere that the new foreach functionality is needed for this but i can not seem to find examples who use double data entries

@waaren, can you see what is wrong

Code: Select all

local lookup = {
    Woonkamerlampen = "109" ,
    WoonkamerlampenSfeervol = "114" ,
}

return {
    active = true,
    on = {
 -- de devices die dit script triggeren 
        devices = {
    'Vitrinekast' ,
        },
    },

    execute = function(domoticz, trigger)
        for naam, id in pairs(lookup) do
        local device = domoticz.groups(naam)
        local devicestatus = '10'
        domoticz.log(device)
         domoticz.log(devicestatus)
    
    end
end
}

what is wrong ?

do not see an immediate problem but hard to check without being able to check your config.
Can you check this and see if you find something in the log ?

Code: Select all

local lookup = {
    Woonkamerlampen = 109 ,
    WoonkamerlampenSfeervol = 114 ,
    Zolder = 120,
}

return {
    active = true,
    on = {
 -- de devices die dit script triggeren 
        devices = {
    'Vitrinekast' , 'XB*'
        },
    },
    
    execute = function( dz )
        for name, id in pairs(lookup) do
            local item = dz.groups(name)
            if item then
                dz.log('status of ' .. item.name .. ' (' .. id ..') is ' .. item.state)
            else
                dz.log('none existing Group')
            end
        end
    end
}

Weird, that seems to work
error is correct since Zolder is not existing

the only thing different is that you skipped the "" in the lookup table

i made my script a lot smaller and adjusted it to make it look almost like yours.
this is still crashing, i really can not see the problem

Code: Select all

local lookup = {
    Woonkamerlampen = 109 ,
    WoonkamerlampenSfeervol = 114 ,
}

    active = true,
    on = {

        },
    },


    execute = function( dz )
        for name, id in pairs(lookup) do
            local item = dz.groups(name)
            dz.log(item)
        end
    end
}

Code: Select all

local lookup = {
            local item = dz.groups(name) -- you make item the group object with all its attributes and functions
            dz.log(item) -- What do you want to display ?? if you want the name then dz.log(item.name) is a better choice

Posted: **Monday 01 July 2019 21:03**

i think that is the problem

item gives errors but item.name only the name

still it is strange that it does not need the .name when i use this on dz.devices(name)

is this done intentionally

group
no .name gives everything about the group(but the name)
.name give the name

device

no .name gives the name of the device
.name probalbly also gives the name

also it is perhaps better to skip name as a variable because it gets confusing name.name ????

I don't understand what you mean with this.
I see the similar type of problems if you use something like

Code: Select all

dz.log(dz.devices(name))

or

Code: Select all

dz.log(dz.groups(name))

Posted: **Tuesday 02 July 2019 15:35**

i meant i thought

for group
local item = dz.groups(name)
dz.log(item.name)

but for item this works (but it is not)
local item = dz.devices(name)
dz.log(item)

anyway it is fixed now and i can read the groups also.
