My People Scripting Examples

[whmoorejr]

I will try to post any scripting examples that work with the MyPeople plugin here to help others. Feel free to contribute if you have one that works.

Use this script to update the state of a MyPeople Person device....

Code: Select all

import logging
myPeopleId = "com.whmoorejr.my-people"
myPeoplePlugin = indigo.server.getPlugin(myPeopleId)
if myPeoplePlugin.isEnabled():
	newPinNumber = "5678"
	myPeoplePlugin.executeAction("setUserPinNumber", deviceId=946349721, props={'userPinNumberField':newPinNumber})
else:
	indigo.server.log("Didn't Work" , level=logging.WARNING) # log a failure message

Hint:

• Change deviceId # to the deviceId# of your device
  All of the device states are called by "set" from a "field"
  for userPinNumber setUserPinNumber userPinNumberField
  for firstName setFirstName firstNameField
  for phoneNumber1 setPhoneNumber1 phoneNumber1Field
  etc.

This can be used with a control page keypad on any method where you can get a PIN number saved as a variable... This example is used in a trigger that fires when that variable changes.... In this example:

• Variable: "PWInput" [777599449] is the variable set from a control page keypad (or whatever method you choose to populate the variable)
  Variable: "Outcome" [748482965] the variable that is updated at the end of the scrip with the name of the person.
  Action Group (12345678) the action that is run with a successful PIN code.
  Action Group (87654321) the action that is run with a failed PIN code.

Code: Select all

import logging
login_name = "PIN fail" # if you change this, don't forget to update the if login_name == "PIN fail" below
password = indigo.variables[777599449].value # "PWInput"
theMessage = "Unsuccessful PIN Entry Attempt with PIN: " + password

for dev in indigo.devices.iter(filter="com.whmoorejr.my-people"):
	MyPin = dev.states["userPinNumber"]
	if MyPin == password:
		login_name = dev.states["friendlyName"]
		theMessage = "PIN Code Accepted, " + login_name + " is here."
#		indigo.server.log(login_name + " can have soup!") # log a success PIN message
#		indigo.actionGroup.execute(12345678) # run a success PIN action

if login_name == "PIN fail":
	indigo.server.log("No Soup For You!", level=logging.WARNING) # log a failure message
#	indigo.actionGroup.execute(87654321) # run a failure PIN action

indigo.variable.updateValue(748482965, value=login_name)  # update variable with name of user with matching pin or "PIN Fail"
indigo.server.log(theMessage) # log the result of the script

Use this script to set the "Now Showing" device to a specific device (record/person).

Code: Select all

import logging
myPeopleId = "com.whmoorejr.my-people"
myPeoplePlugin = indigo.server.getPlugin(myPeopleId)
if myPeoplePlugin.isEnabled():
	theRecord = "1"
	myPeoplePlugin.executeAction("nowShowingSpecific", deviceId= 1883703450, props={'nowShowingSpecificField':theRecord})
else:
	indigo.server.log("Didn't Work" , level=logging.WARNING) # log a failure message

Notes:

• Change theRecord = "n" to the record number you want.
  Change deviceId= 12345 to the deviceId of your "Now Showing" device created by the plugin
  If you request a record greater than the number of records available 0-total, the action will set the requested number to 0 (the first record)
