Indigo Domotics

If I set the precision of some values in the config to 0:


the WUnderground-Device shows everything correctly:


But if I then write out the value of eg the max temp to a variable, there is a decimal place:


Is that a bug or make I a mistake?

Neither. Indigo has the capacity to maintain two values for each device state--(1) the actual state value, and (2) one to display in Indigo's UI. When you change the decimal precision value in the plugin, you're affecting only the UI value (the actual value remains unchanged.) This is purposeful behavior.

How are you writing out the value to the variable? If you're using Python, it's an easy fix.

Code: Select all

x = indigo.devices[1258163860].states["foreHigh1"]
y = indigo.devices[1258163860].states["foreHigh1.ui"]

indigo.server.log(unicode(x))
indigo.server.log(unicode(y))

Which yields this:

Code: Select all

Thx for your explanations Dave. I can not use "foreHigh1.ui" because the TTS for german does not speak the degree-sign correctly (it says "degree-sign" instead of "degree")... so I will have to convert the "foreHigh1" to a number without decimal place...

That sounds like the best approach to me, too. Good luck!
