Debug mode for lua program

[ErlingK 2]

Hi, I'm new to the HC3 but had the HC2 before and I'm fairly new to the lua language but have experience with programing.

Currently I'm makin som scenes to control my underfloor water heating system, trying to make it more progressiv than only on/off.

Some of the scenes has a lot of loops with debug to log that i want to see when i try new thing but not in operational mode.

Problem is it takes time to add and remove all the -- in front of the fibaro.debug.

Is there a way to put a variable before fibaro.debug with a valu of "-".."-" that the program can read as -- and as nothing if you change the variable?

Or is the only way to have an if condition before the fibaro.debug with a debug mode true condition?

Thanks!

Just redefine the debug function.

Please login or register to see this code.

If you set DEBUG to false it won't print out anything...

You could also make it a bit more. advanced with some kind of debug level..

Went with this one, thx again!

 

fibaro.debug1,DEBUG = fibaro.debug,false
function fibaro.debug1(...)
    if DEBUG
        then
        fibaro.debug(...)
    end
end
