Sunrise and Sunset time info Control page

[jay (support)]

Are you sure the script is running? I'd expect it to be exactly an hour off if it were a DST issue...

No. I changed the name of the variable sometime (sunset v TheSunset) to the script (when I ran it) had an error. All set now and everything on the Control Page is updated.

I've been living with this error since the spring. Should have asked for help earlier.

Once again....thanks....

Another benefit to scripting in Python - use IDs rather than names so you can change names without breaking scripts...

Code: Select all

nextSunrise = indigo.server.calculateSunrise()
indigo.variable.updateValue(SUNRISEVARIDHERE, value=nextSunrise.strftime("%H:%M"))
nextSunset = indigo.server.calculateSunset()
indigo.variable.updateValue(SUNSETVARIDHERE, value= nextSunset.strftime("%H:%M"))

Sets each value to HH:MM sunrise/sunset.

Nice control page, Ive been trying to build some for my Ipad but having
some issues with sizing the icons and button to fit on the ipad. What
did you do? Did you build them with the Sweethome3d software?
Thanks

I Like your control page One question on your Garage door
open/close button how did you get a button to display the
open/close status on the control page? the sunrise/sunset
script works great.

nextSunrise = indigo.server.calculateSunrise()

Sets each value to HH:MM sunrise/sunset.

I am trying to use this script instead of AppleScript version but Indigo (last version) days:

Code: Select all

nextSunset = indigo.server.calculateSunset()
Invalid syntax



Ehm...my error with brackets

Looks like my script was missing a couple of closing parens.
