Tutorial: Single scene instance / Event model

[jgab 2,642]

It's tricky to know if it has stopped as there is no 'running' key as there is for scenes.

One approach is to have a "liveness" ping to another QA. 

Another simple thing is to have the ER4 QA write the time to a fibaro global every 30s.

Then have a scene that looks at the variable every minute and if not updated the last 30s will notify you

and try a POST /plugins/restart...

The command is

api.post("/plugins/restart",{deviceId=deviceId})

and what about to read debug messages? Is it possible to get these info via APIs?

Yes, it's possible. But you got no logs  You can write pings in the log and check it from another QA. The GV seems simpler and you don't need to pollute the log.

Jan I dont have any /

I -- all other rules who are using the GV and wich one of the rules I use creates error.

The solution is buying a dubble relais and wipe out the GV, analog as I had when I used the HC2.

I know its not the best solution if I am not knowing where that error comes from.

 

what about:

Whats the working cmd for    httpGet('http://api.

error no such cmd httpGet/httpget.

 

fix 56 came in as a thief in the night!!!!!

 

Why if opens QA it shows tab ER in stead of QA?

 

Thanks for the service,

//Sjakie

So this is the HC2? just to be sure..

You say that it only happens with rules using '$BeveiligenAanw' ?

You could try (long shot) set MARSHALL=false in the beginning of ER3

In ER3 it's called web.get(url)

Can you elaborate what you mean? not clear.

 

 

[Sjakie 156]

Jan, sorry I used a Dutch expression.

Fix 56 came into my system smooth and silent! If been robbed at night you dont notice either.

 

Yes its HC2 but what I dont understand:

HC2 factory reset>> I figured out it ws better to restore my latest version ER scenes

I wiped out what was not applicable and all devices.

I add all devices and modified my scenes

Because my daughters wish was to keep it simple (Why she ask me?) I start to use GV as interface between ER and VD.

Last evening I rember a remark from you about VD's and App better use devices.

For myself I always used deveices so I changed back to devices thats why I need to buy a dubble relais.

I think it will be more reliable too.

Jan,

HC3

I found a old rule to minimize the number of messages in debug but I have an error in it.

Please login or register to see this code.

[22.05.2021] [11:01:55] [ERROR] [QUICKAPP1303]: main() error:./include/EventRunner.lua:2292: Main() ERROR:./include/main.lua:390: attempt to index a nil value (global 'Event')

Whats wrong?

That code only works on the HC2, on the HC3 we need something different.

I have pushed ER4 fix57 that gives a quick fix.

 

Please login or register to see this code.

the function self:triggerDelta(deviceID, propertyName, deltaValue)

will ensure that the device only triggers if its property changes with deltaValue or more.

Note that the property needs to be a numeric value or it will generate an error.

Jan, thank you verry much for this fast solution!

Just to recieve a message if its important to get, is it possible to modify below rule to exclude this message if update is done because of fix "n"?

Thanks in advance,

Jan, for sure I do it wrong, on fix 57

No debug at all

Jan, HC2 error and I dont understand why?

Both devices in HT and listed in debug

ID number in header

If I seperate switch on/off both devices I get nice the result back in debug if he is on or off. If I replace name by ID same error so no type error.

What I am doing wrong?

Hi Jan, Thanks for your great work. I am trying to transfer config from HC2 to HC3 using ER4 and having difficulties with the logic for the following -

The logic looks ok. Is it just sending the message that's missing?

You can try

Please login or register to see this code.

log(...) returns that the string that is logged and we give it as an argument to userID:msg=...

You could of course also send another message than the one you log.

userID is the id you have in the system. 

You can look at http://<HC3 IP>/api/iosDevices

It says iosDevices but is valid for Android too.

Hi Jan, Thanks for your help, all working now.

Issue was a faulty Window Sensor and using your information I got both logging and message working.

How is your log4 function defined?

It needs to apply the string.format function to make the %s directives work.
