[667] Ability to execute script:/// from Blocky

tracker.php?p=2&t=667
As asked in
viewtopic.php?f=23&t=9489 it would be really nice to be able to run system scripts (bash, python, whatever) from Blocky.
LUA is nice, but putting a sleep in LUA will cause it to run multiple times sequential, which really is a killer for scripts.
A Blocky option 'execute $script after $time' would be a great addition to the Domoticz OS in my opinion.
Cheers.

Absolute a good idea.

This is indeed a very good suggestion. I have been using Domoticz only for one week and it's exactly what I need.

You could call a script from a dummy switch and then call that switch from blocky.

if you enter an IDX in between {{ and }} , from for example a temperature sensor, it is replaced with the value of this sensor
Hope all is working well....

Forgot to mention... you can find it under the 'messages' section... not sure if it is the logical place, but as open_url was also in here....

I'm unable to update to the latest beta version. After 2% it says error internet connection.

Works great for me. I'm triggering batch files to run in Windows directly from blockly now rather than having to run them from switches. Really useful functionality, thanks!

I cant seem to run a script within blockly. I get error 32512.
The script works fine when run fron putty or with a switch that calls the script.
Any ideas?

My scripts run batch files (on Windows) which are contained in the 'domoticz' folder and therefore do not need a path specifying. (i.e. just 'tv-on.bat with no / or \ required.) Maybe the problem is when you specify a path in blockly? Try moving a file into your domoticz root folder and executing it as I do. Could be a bug in blockly.

I noticed that in some cases, starting a script without any parameters results in an error as follows:
Error executing script command (/home/pi/domoticz/scripts/say_ad.sh#). returned: 32512
If I add a space after the script's name then the # is still there but taken as the first parameter of the script (where my script doesn't use any so it works as a workaround).
Anyone else seen this? Obviously only applies to linux( /raspbian).

I see the exact same - I'll try the workaround and report back.... Thanks...

The space workaround works - but why is there a tailing '#' when the script is called?

Works great with me. Thanks a lot for this improvement. A few notes:
When Domoticz is running on a Raspberry Pi and you place the bash script in a seperate folder (e.g. /home/pi/domoticz/scripts/bash) then, next to making the script executable with CHMOD 755 you also have to add the folder to your $PATH. You can do this by adding this code to your .profile file and reboot. Use the full directory name as mentioned above.
You will find the .profile file in the /home/pi directory as a hidden file. Add the code at the bottom of the file.
I use this to set Milight bulbs to nightlight at sunset. This is the bash code:
Code: Select all
#!/bin/bash
echo -n -e "\x33\x00" | nc -u -q 1 192.168.2.25 8899 # set zone 2 OFF
echo -n -e "\x3A\x00" | nc -u -q 1 192.168.2.25 8899 # set zone 3 OFF
echo -n -e "\x36\x00" | nc -u -q 1 192.168.2.25 8899 # set zone 4 OFF
sleep 1
echo -n -e "\xB3\x00" | nc -u -q 1 192.168.2.25 8899 # set zone 2 NightLight
echo -n -e "\xBA\x00" | nc -u -q 1 192.168.2.25 8899 # set zone 3 NightLight
echo -n -e "\xB6\x00" | nc -u -q 1 192.168.2.25 8899 # set zone 4 NightLight
and this the Blockly code:

at sunrise they go out again with:

echo -n -e "\x33\x00" | nc -u -q 1 192.168.2.25 8899 # set zone 2 OFF
echo -n -e "\x3A\x00" | nc -u -q 1 192.168.2.25 8899 # set zone 3 OFF

Hi! Having the same problem. Did you figure out why there is a tailing # ?!
It's messing up my scripting! =)
