Lua in VD and scene acts different?

[Igy 23]

Im trying to control my foscam IP camera (PTZ and other) over the http commands. From any regular browser its a pice of cake. I would like to create virtual device where each button will represent specific command for camera control. I succeeded to create a scene with LUA to execute the commands:

 

--[[

%% properties

 

%% globals

--]]

 

local httpClient = net.HTTPClient();

httpClient:request('

However when I use the same code in VD with LUA, it doesn't work. I would like to avoid creating 10 scenes and call the scenes from VD, I would like to execute the code directly from VD. Is it possible? 

 

Thanx for any advice.

Try something like:

 

CAM = Net.FHttp("192.168.1.51", "88")
response, status, errorCode = CAM:GET('/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=ptzGotoPresetPoint&name=Vchod&usr=AAA&pwd=BBB%27)')
if ( errorCode == 0 )
then
  fibaro:log("transfer OK");
else

  fibaro:log("transfer failed");

end

Thank you boerremk, but it didn't work. Tried to adjust the code based on other device I found on forum:

 

CAM = Net.FHttp("192.168.1.51", "88")

HWSResponse = CAM:GET('/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=ptzGotoPresetPoint&name=Vchod&usr=AAA&pwd=BBB')

 

Now it works perfectly.

 

Thanks for directing me to the solution

You're welcome.

 

I see why it didn't work. sorry I didn't notice it before, but If you removed %27) from the CAM:GET line it would do the trick:

response, status, errorCode = CAM:GET('/cgi-bin/CGIProxy.fcgi?cmd=ptzGotoPresetPoint&name=Vchod&usr=AAA&pwd=BBB')

 

I like to check if no error occured, that is why I check on errorCode.
