Hello. on the basis of this rule, how can we simply overload our same controller on which ER4 is hanging? how to describe a simple POST on reboot?

something like this doesn't work)
rule ("496:isOn => http.post(fmt('http://192.168.0.254/api/service/reboot'))")

"overload"? you mean reboot?

What specifically is not working?

- the post reboot command?

- or the 496:isOn ?

 

Can you explain a bit more?

You need to add the credentials to the HC3 at 192.168.0.254, like in the earlier example with slave devices...

@jgab

Hello Jan, Can we call other quickapp's custom functions in a rule using " : " ? or should we use always the fibaro.call(myquickapp, "testfunction") pattern?

 

Like:

rule = ("button1:on => myquickapp:testfunction")

and I understand that you need to insert a login\password, but I don't know how... I just thought that when you run the ari command directly from the controller where you are, you don't need it, because you're actually already authorized...

Yes, if you do an api.post you don't need.

http.post always requires credentials as it does an net.HTTPCall():request(...)

well, this is the best thing I tried, but it doesn’t work like that (((there is more, you still need to indicate or turn on RECOVERY...
I tried like this, but it still doesn't work (((

rule ("496:isOn => api.post('/service/reboot',{recovery=false})")

@jgab Hello, Jan, what is the syntax in ER4 for geofence events? Like if for example admin entered Home geofence or left Geofence?

 

PI :I will test ER5 asap. Not in production, just to help to find bugs.

Thanks Jan, but what is the ID of the location. You say in description that it can be found on location panel, but there is no ID for me. Or ID ==  name ?

Yes, you need to add locations in the location panel.The ID of the locations are only visible in the swagger/rest API

In ER there is a convenience function 'LOC' that returns the location rest structure for a location name

rule("log('School location id is %s',LOC('School').id)")

...and it's not called 'Home' but the name of the HC3 box. 

I have defined 'Home' to be the same coordinate-

Try to make a api.post('/service/reboot',{recovery=false}) outside the rule somewhere in main() and see if it works.

ER just translates it to a standard Lua api.post('/service/reboot',{recovery=false}) and calls it.

hi all.. just started trying to implement ER4 and it's fantastic!! I hate cluttering HC3 with too many scenes and this wonderful wonderful program is simplifying all the daily routine tasks so thank you so much @jgab!!

 

I'm now trying to make my life a bit more complicated by using Profiles and Weather as conditions to my rules but not sure how to get it to work for example - 

 

rule("@07:00 & profile('home') => heater:on") 

 

I'm also trying to replace a scene where blinds are closed when the weather is Rain or Storm but not sure where to start.  i see this example in the code 

rule("#weather{property='$prop', value='$val'} => log('%s = %s',prop,val)")

but not sure how to use it.. any one can point me in the right direction?

if you want I can send in pm something I use for curtains but I have used something similar also for blinds

Well, profile as not very well managed in ER4.

You need to get the id of the Home profile and then compare that id to the active profile's id. Like this
