Enabling/disabling a trigger in Python

[jay (support)]

A user asked how to convert the following AppleScript snippit to Python:

Code: Select all

 disable time date action "timer_wakeup”

In order to answer for the benefit of the entire community, I'm posting the reply here. To do this, you want to use the enable() method in the indigo.trigger namespace:

Code: Select all

indigo.trigger.enable(IDOFTRIGGER, value=False)

For completeness, passing True will enable the trigger.

Thanks for the info Jay!

However that doesn't answer my question - your solution is for a trigger.

The original AppleScript was to disable [or enable] a time date action which is typically under the Schedules category. Your solution only addresses Triggers.

AppleScript: disable time date action "timer_wakeup”

Hi Herb,

Replace trigger with schedule and it should work:

Code: Select all

indigo.schedule.enable(ID_OF_SCHEDULE, value=False)
