how to use commands sent to virtual switch in lua script (lua shows values from one cycle back)

[mschaar]

Hi,
I a using a virtual switch (rgb) to be able to 'capture' the commands sent from the gui to that switch and then relay them onto my actual device. This device is not fully supported, hence the workaround.
Now when I perform a set color on the virtual switch, i see it is correctly shown in the log (Status: setcolbrightnessvalue: ID: 20, bri: 100, color: '{m: 3, RGB: ff0eff, CWWW: 0000, CT: 0}')
So my green should be 0e = 14, but the device.color or device.getColor() it returns the value it had before changing the color.: 169

How can I use / retrieve the actual latest sent rgb values for setcolbrightnessvalue in the lua script?

Code: Select all

2021-04-30 14:46:16.193  Status: setcolbrightnessvalue: ID: 20, bri: 100, color: '{m: 3, RGB: ff0eff, CWWW: 0000, CT: 0}'

Hope someone can help.

Thanks. For now I made a workaround by fetching the actual color by httprequest. Not pretty, but it works...
