Domoticz

Code: Select all

--[[
    I have an automated rolling garagedoor which I added to domoticz using a double fibaro relay.
    In domoticz I now have two switches, on to open the door, one to close it.
    
    To make it even more neat, I would like to use the "blinds" switch type, so that the animation looks like the garagedoor.
    This could all be made possible if I hide both of the switches using a "$-sign", and then create a virtual switch and set the "On action" to trigger the hidden open switch, 
    and set the "off action" to trigger the hidden close switch.


    assuming blindname == garageDoor
    and actual switch-names: $open  $close
]]

return 
{
	on = 
	{
		devices = 
		{
			'garageDoor', -- change to the name of the virtual switch you defined 
	    },
	},
	
	logging = 
	{
        level = domoticz.LOG_DEBUG, -- change to LOG_ERROR when script is fucntioning as expected
        marker = 'garage Door',
    },

	execute = function(dz, item)
		dz.log(item.name .. ' is now ' .. item.state , dz.LOG_DEBUG)
		if item.active then
		   dz.log('Open garagedoor', dz.LOG_DEBUG) 
		   dz.devices('$open').switchOn() 
		else
		   dz.log('Close garagedoor', dz.LOG_DEBUG) 
		   dz.devices('$close').switchOn() 
	    end
	end
}
