Device identification in script

Hello,
I have several ON/OFF switches, launching the same (bash) action script when turning on.
Question: What can I do, in the script, to identify the switch which triggered it ??
Take care,
Olivier

Assuming you use the On action field of the devices for this; set it to something like
script:///<full qualified scriptName> <name of your device>
and in the bash script use something like
Code: Select all
parm=${1:-empty}
echo $parm >> /usr/local/domotica/data/parmTest.log
