Need Script to Add Variable State of a Schedule?

Hi All,
I need a simple script to check whether a specific Schedule is enabled or disabled in Indigo, and then put that in a variable as On or Off or True or False.
I created the Schedule named "Test", and when it is enabled, it turns an ApplianceLinc on every hour for 10 min, then it auto shuts it off. Works good.
I need to see in the Variable list whether or not this "Test" Schedule is enabled or not when I am using Indigo Touch on the iphone remotely.
(I can see if the actual ApplianceLinc is on or off in Device State, but that's not what I need to check. I need to see if the actual Schedule is enabled or disabled in the Variable List.
How do I write a simple script that just checks the "Test" Schedule in Indigo, and puts ON if it is enabled, and OFF if it is disabled, in the Variable List?
I couldn't find anyone else that was checking a Schedule's state of enabled or disabled, and reporting it in the Variable List?
-Thanks

Hi All,

I think this will do what you want:

Code: Select all

schedule = indigo.schedules[1839643083]

if schedule.enabled:
    indigo.variable.updateValue(1961258112, 'On')
else:
    indigo.variable.updateValue(1961258112, 'Off')

You'll need to replace the schedule ID and variable ID for your setup.

Another approach would be to use a 10 minute timer device to turn off the coffee maker rather than an auto-off - then you can just inspect the states of the timer. No scripting required.

Hi Dave & Jay,

Thank you for the script Dave, it works great! This does exactly what I need.

Jay, I never knew about the "timers" in Indigo. That will be something I can use for another project in the future.
For this situation, I have to go with Dave's Script. The details are too much to go into here.

Thanks again,

Glad that it worked for you.
