Stop sending notifications

Hi,
If have a script that checks the level in a pound, when the level is > 30 cm a switch will open.

In the switch i have a notification that the switch is activated. But it keeps sending notifications every 10 seconds.
How can i solve this, 1 notifaction that the switch is on en 1 that it close

return
{
on =
{
devices = {'Nivo'}
},

execute = function(domoticz, switch)
if (domoticz.devices('Nivo').distance < 30) then
domoticz.devices('schakelaar').switchOn()
domoticz.notify('This rocks!',
'Turns out that it is getting filled',
domoticz.PRIORITY_HIGH)
elseif (domoticz.devices('Nivo').distance > 30) then
domoticz.devices('schakelaar').switchOff()
end
end
}

use the persistent data = { ... } section to record the state of the switch, and only send he message if the switch changes

look here https://github.com/domoticz/domoticz/bl ... /README.md

Or use the notification button/function on the switch itself.

Piefje,
i dont know about these scripts but in blockly i was advised to use a user variable ( integer ) when i wanted to put my badkamer licht out after 60 minutes. Without it the counter kept counting.
When your pound level is <30 and the user variable is 0 turn on the valve and set the user variable to 1 and send an email.
When your pound level > 30 and the user variable is 1 turn of the valve and set the variable to 0 and send an email.
Maybe this will help
good luck

Kuifje

Not if you use the checkFirst().switchOn() option in DzVents when you switch the device. Then DzVents checks the state first and if in the same state it not switch and so not trigger a notification.

Is there no option like this.

return
{
on =
{
devices = {'Nivo'}
},
IF (DOMOTICZ.DEVICES('schakelaar').state = (On) and
if (domoticz.devices('Nivo').distance < 30) then
end
return

execute = function(domoticz, switch)
if (domoticz.devices('Nivo').distance < 30) then
domoticz.devices('schakelaar').switchOn()
domoticz.notify('This rocks!',
'Turns out that it is getting filled',
domoticz.PRIORITY_HIGH)
elseif (domoticz.devices('Nivo').distance > 30) then
domoticz.devices('schakelaar').switchOff()
end
end
}

I know the options but dont know how to put then in. I only want 1 notification when the pound get filles and 1 when it stops.

Yes
So instead of
domoticz.devices('schakelaar').switchOn()
use domoticz.devices('schakelaar').switchOn().checkfirst()

and instead of
domoticz.devices('schakelaar').switchOff()
Use
domoticz.devices('schakelaar').switchOff().checkFirst()

Delete the notification line in dzVents script.

On the widget of switch Schakelaar click on notification button and add a notification, see wiki page https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Managing_ ... ifications

Well the problem stays, when sending notification direct, ik keep getting msg. until the switch is off

Hm, i have now set the interval in esp to 300 sec, now it gives me every 5 min a msg, but thats not what i want.

If the pound level is >30 then switch must on en send a msg (one time)

If the pound level is <25 then switch must off end send a msg (one time)

I do not understand why you get this notifications if you modified the dzVents script according my suggestions. Did you change that?

Yes, the problem i think is that the sensor is sending information every 30 seconds to domoticz and that triggers the notification of the switch.


return
{
on =
{
devices = {'Nivo'}
},

execute = function(domoticz, switch)
if (domoticz.devices('Nivo').distance > 30) then
domoticz.devices('schakelaar').switchOn().checkfirst()
elseif (domoticz.devices('Nivo').distance < 25) then
domoticz.devices('schakelaar').switchOff().checkFirst()
end
end

Welcome
As the distance sensor reports every 30 seconds, it is better to use the timer, e.g. every 2 minutes. Then the script will not be triggered every 30 seconds. The whole thing might look like this

Code: Select all

return
{
    on =
    {   
        timer = {'every 2 minutes'}, 
    },

    logging =
    {
        level = domoticz.LOG_DEBUG,  
        marker = 'Nivo',
    },

    data =
    {
        notified =
        {
            initial = 0,
        },
    },
    execute = function(dz, item)
        local nivo = dz.devices('Nivo')
	local switch = dz.devices('schakelaar')
        if item.isTimer then
        if nivo.distance < 30 then
            dz.data.notified = dz.data.notified + 1
	    switch.switchOn().checkFirst()
            if dz.data.notified == 1 and nivo.distance < 30 then
            local DateTimePressed = os.date("%d/%m/%Y %X")
            dz.notify('This rocks!','Turns out that it is getting filled' .. DateTimePressed .. ".", dz.PRIORITY_HIGH)

            end
    elseif nivo.distance > 30 and dz.data.notified > 0 then
            switch.switchOff().checkFirst()
            dz.data.notified = 0
            local DateTimePressed = os.date("%d/%m/%Y %X")
            dz.notify('This rocks!','Ok' .. DateTimePressed .. ".", dz.PRIORITY_HIGH)

            
        end
    end
end
}

It should not trigger the switch notifiy every 30 seconds or every 2 minutes as the switch is only switched on when it reaches your limit and it is not already switched on/off (due to the .checkFirst() function). Last update time should also not change unless really switched on/off.

Here is your answer. Takes some time to read and understand, but it works.

Why do we need all those fancy tricks for such a simple problem? Just a few ifs will do the work nicely. Plus, save your future self some time and put in error messages if one of the devices is not found.

Code: Select all

return
   {
      on =
         {
            devices = {'Nivo'}
         },
      execute = function(domoticz, switch)
         local nivo = domoticz.devices('Nivo')
         local schakelaar = domoticz.devices('schakelaar')
         
         if nil == nivo then
            domoticz.log( 'Device "Nivo" does not exist.', domoticz_LOG_ERROR)
         elseif nil == schakelaar then
            domoticz.log( 'Device "schakelaar" does not exist.', domoticz_LOG_ERROR)
         elseif nivo.distance > 30 and not schakelaar.active then
            local DateTimePressed = os.date("%d/%m/%Y %X")
            domoticz.notify('This rocks!','Turns out that it is getting filled' .. DateTimePressed .. '.', domoticz.PRIORITY_HIGH)
            schakelaar.switchOn()
         elseif nivo.distance < 25 and schakelaar.active then
            local DateTimePressed = os.date("%d/%m/%Y %X")
            domoticz.notify('This rocks!','Ok' .. DateTimePressed .. '.', domoticz.PRIORITY_HIGH)
            schakelaar.switchOff()
         end
      end
  }
