My QuickApp Gate Controller using rest calls keeps dying on the mobile interface - yubii

[RohitNz 7]

I made the mistake of buying the wrong model of the Nice Gate controller - it doesnt interface with Fibaro. It only has one input, the rest are coded.

 

To make everything work I have cannibalized one remote and attached it to a raspberry pi with relays.  This is working fine.  But the QA on Yubii seems to crash when being used, and I have to go back and open the QA again.

 

I suspect that I should be creating the HTTPClient class when required instead of creating it at startup.  If so, I don't know how to free it when done.

 

Please login or register to see this code.

 

1. Lock/Unlock address a separate Fibaro relay that kills power to the Gate Controller. 
2. The interface has 5 buttons - Open, Close, Pedestrian, Lock and Unlock.
3. And there is only one variable Address  which is the ipaddress of the Pi.

 

What have I stuffed up ?

Bug in

function QuickApp.Show_Gate_Status (Msg) 
  self:updateView ('lblStatus', 'text', Msg) 
end

should be QuickApp:Show_Gate_Status or you can't call self. (the colon)

 

In the post function you send

data='text'

which is strange... it should probably be different depending on what remote api you call?

 

In many places you call Show_Gate_Status (...)

should be

self:Show_Gate_Status (...) as it is a QuickApp: defined method

 

Update_Gate_Status(...) and Update(...) are undefined functions

 

In general, Lua bugs affect the QA running on the HC3 - the Yubi app only reflect the "web UI" of the QA

Thanks.  I must remember not to edit in the browser, and use a proper editor. Then search and replace would have fixed most of those errors.  The colon versus the dot is a bugger.  Because I mostly program in Delphi, where the dot is used for both methods and fields.  The biggest issue is that if it crashes inside a function, you normally get nothing in the log.  Can't test it right now, as it's late and the pi can't go by the gate until the 3d printer has finished making a case for it.

 

The data='text'  is fine as there is no exchange of data as such and there was no point in encapsulating things in json.  I was struggling with the pi programming as it was.
