Koubachi data in HC2

[thijs 1]

I have a Koubachi and retrieving the data trough a php script, as mentioned on

Please login or register to see this link.

(Thanks guys!!!)

However, when the temp light and moist values are set in the Global Variable panel the symbols (°C, lx and %) are set as well. This causes trouble when using it in a scene as the variables are not seen as numbers and that is necessary as I want to use the moist value as a trigger.

I think this can be solved in 2 ways, but either way I don't know how. Who can help?

1) Try to set the values without the symbols. In this case I have to extract the pure values out of the json file through the php script. I have the following LUA code in my virtual device. How to adjust?

-- NAME: koubachi-fibaro

-- Comment: Collecter les donnees d'un capteur Koubachi

HC2 = Net.FHttp("")

response = HC2:GET("/koubachi/Koubachi.php")

result = json.decode(response)

local light = result.device.recent_light_reading_value

local temp = result.device.recent_temperature_reading_value

local moisture = result.device.recent_soilmoisture_reading_value

i = 1

while i <= 360 do

fibaro:setGlobal("Koubachi_light",light)

fibaro:setGlobal("Koubachi_temp", result.device.recent_temperature_reading_value)

fibaro:setGlobal("Koubachi_moist", result.device.recent_soilmoisture_reading_value)

-- assign local variable to virtual device label

fibaro:call(177,"setProperty","ui.Label1.value",moisture)

fibaro:call(177,"setProperty","ui.Label2.value",temp)

fibaro:call(177,"setProperty","ui.Label3.value",light)

fibaro:log("Light: "..light.." - Temp: "..temp.." - Hum:"..moisture.."")

fibaro:sleep(1000);

i = i + 1

end

2) Adjusting the LUA code of the scene so that it can read the symbols for triggering below a certain value. First I used the scripting block without success. I have translated it to LUA code

(see below the first part of the code). If I have to do something here I think it should be where the trigger value is mentiod 'tonumber ( "75" ) )'. But how to adjust?

--[[

%% properties

%% globals

Koubachi_moist

--]]

local sourceTrigger = fibaro:getSourceTrigger();

if (sourceTrigger["type"] == "autostart") then

while true do

local currentDate = os.date("*t");

local startSource = fibaro:getSourceTrigger();

if (

( ((currentDate.wday == 1 or currentDate.wday == 2 or currentDate.wday == 3 or currentDate.wday == 4 or currentDate.wday == 5 or currentDate.wday == 6 or currentDate.wday == 7) and string.format("%02d", currentDate.hour) .. ":" .. string.format("%02d", currentDate.min) == "14:43") )

and

( tonumber(fibaro:getGlobalValue("Koubachi_moist")) < tonumber( "75" ) )

)

then[/color]

Who can help me solving this?
