Roomba Plugin - Discontinued

[Bollar]

I get mostly the same, except mine is currently showing Cycle=quick. Mine is set for single pass. Is yours single or double?

The version I'm running (0.0.4) is showing batPct, ExpireM, and RechrgM. Do you need to stretch the window?

Ah, I see them there, but they aren't displayed when I try to make a trigger condition. Maybe that "DBatPctate" is related?

Also, seeing the time displayed as "16:4" messes with my OCD.

I have double pass.

Yup, typo. It's actually BatPct, it's just labeled wrong. You can use it. I can't find any reason the other two aren't showing up.

It's your time formatting code. I didn't change it. But I will.

So 'clean' is double pass, 'quick' is single. Good to know, I guess.

You should have figured out by now that I don't know what I'm doing and my code always requires QA.

I wonder what is the most useful state to display as the device's state? Phase?

Maybe. Or maybe we make one up and I construct it on every update based on a couple of the other values. Easy enough to do.

'quick' is apparently a clean that is started off the dock - like when you take the robot to another room or floor and start it from there.. I get 'clean' with automatic, single & double passes.

[FlyingDiver]

Interesting in an abstract kind of way.

Any thoughts on constructing a useful device status?

Any thoughts on constructing a useful device status?

Without making it too complex, I think I'd be happy with a 1/0 state:

A green one (1) that indicates the current phase (run, charging, etc.) and a red one (0) with a not ready or error.

Yes, the other stuff is interesting to me, especially battery % and maybe pause time remaining, but I don't know if it really has to be in the main Device State.

Thanks for the work in this. (Already have it added to control page)

From a control page image point of view - would be nice to distinguish whether running, or in-dock. ( regardless of charging or otherwise)

I'm playing around with the device state indicators now. Should have something better in a day or two.

[JaceJenkins]

First off, Thanks to both for the Fantastic work.

Code: Select all

I can get v0.02 working fine, but its missing all your great updates that are in v0.03 and v0.04. However if I run v.0.04 I get all sorts of errors.

- I have tried upgrading a working v0.02 to v0.04. After upgrade I tried to:
- edit and existing roomba device then saving
- deleting and readding the roomba device
- i have tried a clean install of v0.04 with a new roomba device setup from scratch

Here is an Error I get when I tell the Roomba to clean via Indigo: (it does start and stop btw, i can tell the roomba to do things, I just get all these errors)

I found the bug causing the 'key blid not found in dict' error messages. I'll have an updated version later today.

[JaceJenkins]

You Rock!

[FlyingDiver]

v0.0.5 available now. The reported error is fixed. Also, this version moves the "Get Password" processing to the Edit Device dialog, so the menu command to do this has been removed.
