Running time script every 30 secs

Hi,
Anyone knows if it is possible to run the time based scripts more often?
For instance, twice per minute instead of 'only' one time?
I noticed my presence detection isn't fast enough.
Cheers.

Run it by cron.
* * * * * /path/script
* * * * * sleep 30 && /path/script

Oh can LUA scripts be started from the shell as well?
I thought it was an interal domoticz thingy.

Don't know about lua, I don't use that
Php does everything I want

Yes you can but won't have the event tables available so need to use JSON call to request information or send commands from/to Domoticz.

Do you have an example Jos?
I thought it would be easyer to call a second bash script in the LUA that slept for x-seconds, but LUA is screaming in the logs that the script is running longer then 10 seconds.
Apparently that's a bad thing...

I don't know how your presence detection works, but maybe you can convert the script to a 'script_device_presence.lua' instead of a 'script_time_presence.lua' ?
A script_device is ran on EVERY device update, so much faster.
Then in the script, check for your device if it has changed:
if devicechanged(['switch1234']== 'On')
rest of your script...

Perhaps both
Having a shell script checking presence every xx s and, when happened, only setting on a domoticz dummy device so a domoticz lua script later make the rest of the job.

You could look at the scripts that simon (and me for the menu extension) build for DTGBOT. (

There are several functions in there to retrieve device status and set devices.

It's this one
viewtopic.php?f=23&t=5256
Every <time based, so 1 minute> the LUA runs arp-scan and updates the dummy switches.
Perhaps changing to a device script might work, I'll check it out.
Thanks!

It works in basic, but it's running multiple times simultainiously now.

As you can see the detection of the phone (Device name is SGS6) gets triggered twice, with 200ms apart.
This results in a double notification from the Telegram bot and other triggers such as turning off all the lights being executed two times right after eachother.
