Question
Lenny212 2
Hi,
I want to set two global variables in two separate Lua scenes.
I then want to access those global variables in another scene.
Scene 1: Set Wake Up Hour
--[[
%% properties
%% events
%% globals
--]]
fibaro:setGlobal('WakeUpHour', '06');
Scene 2: Set Wake Up Minute
--[[
%% properties
%% events
%% globals
--]]
fibaro:setGlobal('WakeUpMinute', '30');
Scene 3: Use variables WakeUpHour and WakeUpMinute to trigger scene and open some roller shutters/blinds.
--[[
%% autostart
%% properties
%% weather
%% events
%% globals
WakeUp
--]]
local currentDate = os.date("*t");
fibaro:debug(fibaro:getGlobalValue('WakeUpHour') )
fibaro:debug('Wake Up Hour = ' .. fibaro:getGlobalValue('WakeUpHour') )
fibaro:debug('Wake Up Minute = ' .. fibaro:getGlobalValue('WakeUpMinute') )
if
(
string.format("%02d", currentDate.hour) .. ":" .. string.format("%02d", currentDate.min) == fibaro:getGlobalValue("WakeUpHour") + ":" + fibaro:getGlobalValue("WakeUpMinute")
and tonumber(fibaro:getGlobalValue("WakeUp")) == tonumber("1")
)
then
(
fibaro:call(53, "open");
fibaro:call(56, "open");
fibaro:sleep (10000)
fibaro:call(222, "open");
...etc
)
end
The getGlobalVariables keep returning nil
Can you help this coding newbie to understand what is going on with setting and getting Global Variables.
