Indigo Domotics

Hey,

Having trouble converting this one to python.
Appreciate any help!

Code: Select all

tell application "IndigoServer"
   set the value of variable "TimerSpklrDurationMin" to (value of variable "TimerSpklrDuration") & " " & "min" & " " & "remain"
end tell


Thanks,

Carl

Have you looked at the Adapter/Device Conversion plugins for this?

There’s a new py3 version that @DaveL17 has written but I don’t think it’s hit the plugin store yet.

It will constantly maintain itself with exactly the wording you’re trying to set in that variable, that I guess you then display on a control page.

No need for a script to tell Indigo to refresh the variable.

There is an "unofficial" fork of the Adapters plugin updated for Python 3 in my GitHub repos. It's a beta release, but seems to be running smoothly. I consider it unofficial because the plugin will be added to the Indigo open source plugin list (as it's been abandoned by its original developer.)

For your original question, here's the Python version of your code (it's better to use ID numbers instead of names):

Code: Select all

# with IDs
var_value = indigo.variables[1928699259].value  # ID of `TimerSpklrDuration`
indigo.variable.updateValue(314742858, var_value + " min remain")  # ID of `TimerSpklrDurationMin`

# with names
var_value = indigo.variables["TimerSpklrDuration"].value
indigo.variable.updateValue("TimerSpklrDurationMin", var_value + " min remain")


Thanks a bunch!
Will be updating soon but still so many Applescripts to convert.

Carl

Maybe one more?

Code: Select all

tell application "IndigoServer"
   set the value of variable "sprinklerLastRun" to (value of variable "DayShort") & " " & (value of variable "MonthShort") & "," & (value of variable "DateExt")
end tell


I've gotten this far:

Code: Select all

var_value = indigo.variables[1109021660].value  # ID of `sprinklerLastRun `
var_value = indigo.variables[1842520251].value  # ID of `DayShort `
var_value = indigo.variables[1269656511].value  # ID of `MonthShort `
var_value = indigo.variables[1102866719].value  # ID of `DayExt `

indigo.variable.updateValue(1109021660, var_value +

Thanks,

Carl

Code: Select all

last_run = indigo.variables[1109021660].value  # ID of `sprinklerLastRun `
day_short = indigo.variables[1842520251].value  # ID of `DayShort `
month_short = indigo.variables[1269656511].value  # ID of `MonthShort `
day_ext  = indigo.variables[1102866719].value  # ID of `DayExt `

indigo.variable.updateValue(1109021660, f"{day_short} {month_short}, {day_ext}")

Though, you use DateExt in your AppleScript but DayExt in your python script's description of the variable - I assumed the comment in the python script is right but if not you can change it from day_ext to date_ext in both places.

Thanks Jay.

Getting syntax error. See attached image.

Carl

Upon a quick review, the code looks right. What version of Indigo are you using?

Don’t laugh…7.2.0

Carl

No judgment here, but that explains the syntax error. This code should fix it. Replace the last line with this:

Code: Select all

indigo.variable.updateValue(1109021660, u"{0} {1}, {2}".format(day_short, month_short, date_ext))


Different error.

Thanks,

Carl

Code: Select all

indigo.variable.updateValue(…….)

Somehow the start of the line has been mistransposed.

DAMMIT.

Changed my post above.

Perfect. Many thanks!

Carl

Doh, I found one more I can't get converted.

Code: Select all

tell application "IndigoServer"
   if value of variable "TimerSprinklerStart" as integer is greater than 2000 then
      if value of variable "DayLong" is "Sunday" then
         set value of variable "sprinklerNextRun" to "Tuesday"
      else if value of variable "DayLong" is "Monday" then
         set value of variable "sprinklerNextRun" to "Wednesday"


It's a much longer script but if can finish it if I get this section.

Thanks,

Carl
