Where do I find LUA library and HTML API?

[jenssam 1]

Hi!

Just wandering where I can find the specs for the LUA libraries supported in HC2, as well as the HTML API?

Best regards,

Jens

Documentation is Fibaros weakest link according to me and many others. Your best resource is this forum.

The only official documentation is partly outdated and very incomplete:

docs.fibaro.com

What we need is an official wiki as relevant forum threads is often a big hassle to find.

Your best resource is this forum.

And it gets more and more fragmented all the time, same things are partially in several threads. Wiki would be nice, but would need also much work.

Pretty useless as although google translation work well enough for the document, all the screen scrapes stay in Polish.

This thread also has some nice info.

It may also be adressed in English directly. Pics will most likely still be in Polish though:

Thanks guys, it sure seems to need some improvement like you say, but at least it's a start!

Hi again!

Now that I've taken a quick look I'm almost amazed at how little info there is. I'm very used to program LUA, but getting started on the HC2 is close to impossible.

Things I wonder are:

- What standard libraries are installed?

- How do I address the global table? Usually it's _G but that doesn't exist

- If I want to create a TCP connection, what library would I use?

- Running HTTP calls, is the only way to do it via an os.execute cURL?

many more questions, but if someone can help me with these first I'd be a happy chap!

Cool ... that's quite fresh, just few days old.

Too bad such a crap-filled and horrible to navigate site as wikia has been used. I don't even understand to read the content and I'm super smart

Hi, you can find a lot of information with my Toolkit application for Home Center (

). See log window and built-in LUA editor (API, docs, etc)

HC2 has a sandbox and a lot is blocked including setmetatable, loading from text etc

How do I address the global table? Usually it's _G but that doesn't exist blocked

Running HTTP calls, is the only way to do it via an os.execute cURL? curl blocked

Fibaro has wrapped a net library but only from Virtual Devices

- If you want to create a TCP connection you must use Net.FTcpSocket (

)

- For HTTP calls, you must use Net.FHttp (

) but you can't request https, unable to add custom header (but you can with FTcpSocket

Today the only thing I can not do is HTTPS request, everything else is possible...

edit: hope we can access setmetatable in V4,
