You have to write dzVents script actioned by your virtual switch.
So there you write all commands

[waltervl]

And in the Dzvents documentation there is section about how to set the commands https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/DzVents:_ ... dia_Server

[reza]

can you give me a simple dzvents code for control with virtual switch (media player) for use media player remote control. for example for play/pause or vol+ or vol-
for example i have this code for Vol+(with a espeasy ir trasmitter):

In my case i have a virtual switch type of Selector for my TV.
But my IR controller needs internet so i need curl installed .

Code: Select all

return {
	on = {
		devices = {87}, -- IDx of your virtual switch
        httpResponses = {
            'TVcontrol_trigger' -- must match with Callback 
                        }
	},
	
        
	logging = {
		level = domoticz.LOG_INFO,
		marker = 'TV control',
	},
	
	execute = function(domoticz, device)
	    
	   local devID = ''
	   local APIkey = ''
	   
	   
	   --local position = device.state
	   local positionName = device.levelName
	   
        local switch = domoticz.devices(87)
        local switchState = switch.level

          -- check current state
          if switchState == 0 then -- on/off 
                      
            devID = '1
            --domoticz.log('Zero', LOG_ERROR)
            
          elseif switchState == 10 then -- chanel +
            
            devID = '2'
            --domoticz.log('10', LOG_ERROR)
            
          elseif switchState == 20 then -- Vol +
            
            devID = '3'
            
            domoticz.log('20 ' .. positionName, LOG_ERROR)
            
          elseif switchState == 30 then -- Vol ++
              
            devID = '4'
            
            --domoticz.log('30 ++', LOG_ERROR)
            
          elseif switchState == 40 then -- Vol -
              
            devID = '5'
            
            --domoticz.log('40 -', LOG_ERROR)
            
          elseif switchState == 50 then -- Vol  -- Vl&#9660
            
            devID = '6'
            domoticz.log('50 --' .. positionName, LOG_ERROR)
            
          elseif switchState == 60 then -- Chanel -
            
            devID = '7'
            --domoticz.log('60 -', LOG_ERROR)
            
          elseif switchState == 70 then
              
            devID = '8'
            --domoticz.log('70', LOG_ERROR)
          end
          
          
          local Command = 'curl -H \"Authorization: Bearer '.. APIkey ..'\" -s -X POST \"https://api.iot.yandex.net/v1.0/scenarios/'.. devID ..'/actions\"'
          
          domoticz.executeShellCommand(Command)
          
          --domoticz.log(switchName, LOG_ERROR)
		
	end
}

In your case if you are in local networ you can use

Code: Select all

domoticz.openURL({
				url = '<YOUR URL>', 
				method = 'POST',
				callback = 'TVcontrol_trigger', -- see httpResponses above.
			}).afterSec(0)

Try this

Code: Select all

local devId = 87 -- change to your switch IDx

return {
	on = {
		devices = {devId}, -- IDx of your virtual switch
        httpResponses = {
            'MediaPlayer' -- must match with Callback 
                        }
	},
	
        
	logging = {
		level = domoticz.LOG_INFO,
		marker = 'TV control',
	},
	
	execute = function(domoticz, device)
	    
	   local volUp = 'http://192.168.1.199/control?cmd=IRSEND,NEC,FF9867,32'

        local switch = domoticz.devices(devId)
          
          
        domoticz.openURL({
				url = volUp, 
				method = 'POST',
				callback = 'MediaPlayer', -- see httpResponses above.
			}).afterSec(0)
			
        domoticz.log('Volume Up of ' .. switch.name, LOG_INFO)
		
	end
}

Sorry, i gave you example for the virtual switch, i dont know such device as virtual device (media player). May be you are using some plugin...

Anyway
one switch = one button
one selector switch = several buttons

Thats my virtual Selector Switch. I can put thare up to 10 buttons = up to 10 commands.

Oh, and does your URL "http://192.168.1.199/control?cmd=IRSEND,NEC,FF9867,32" work from browser?
