Hi,
I going to create a script handling with lights downstairs. I created an array with devices and want to add or remove a device depending on its state.
As far I understood, to add or remove a value from an array I have to use LUA (?)
My script (especially 2nd line)

Code: Select all

local lights = domoticz.devices().filter({ 'LedRelaxSides', 'LedRelaxMiddle', 'LightRelaxLibrary', 'LightRelaxWall'})
            local lights2 = domoticz.utils._.pull(lights, 'LedRelaxSides')
            lights2.forEach(function(light)
                    domoticz.log(" TEST " .. light.name)
                
            end)

But it shows 4 devices (all) and I expected only 3 (without LedRelaxSides)

What do I wrong?
Thank you in advance.

The filter returns devices into the table lights and you try to remove a string (name).

If you change it to

Code: Select all

local lights = domoticz.devices().filter({ 'LedRelaxSides', 'LedRelaxMiddle', 'LightRelaxLibrary', 'LightRelaxWall'})
            local lights2 = domoticz.utils._.pull(lights, domoticz.devices('LedRelaxSides'))
            lights2.forEach(function(light)
                    domoticz.log(" TEST " .. light.name)                
            end)

You will see the expected result.
Please note that using this method you will remove the device LedRelaxSides from both lights and lights2.

Corrected according to your advice and works as expected.

Thank you waaren!

Code: Select all

local lights = domoticz.devices().filter({ 'LedRelaxSides', 'LedRelaxMiddle', 'LightRelaxLibrary', 'LightRelaxWall'})
domoticz.utils._.pull(lights, domoticz.devices('LedRelaxSides'))
lights.forEach(function(light)
   domoticz.log(" TEST " .. light.name)
end)
