[Solved] My first system

[cpighin]

Thanks Andrea for your contribution.

If I have not misunderstood, your script performs almost the same function as the 2 LogicalRules that I implemented, but does so with a different tool.

Because I'm ignorant in this field, how I could use the files that you posted with your attachment?

1. Put the unzipped folder with the 2 files within the userModules folder of the z-way server (default is: /opt/z-way-server/automation/userModules)
2. Stop the z-way server (sudo /etc/init.d/z-way-server stop)
3. Start the z-way server (sudo /etc/init.d/z-way-server start)
4. Look for a new automation module through the preferences panel within the HA UI

Andrea,

I followed your instructions:
- I started my RPI2,
- I used the file manager to copy the folder AutoOffSmart containing the two files index.js and module.json in /opt/z-way-server/automation/userModules,
- I stopped and restarted the server Z-way with the commands:

Code: Select all

sudo /etc/init.d/z-way-server stop
sudo /etc/init.d/z-way-server start

- I opened the HA interface UI and did not find the new module in the path Preferences > Automation, as expected.

Where did I go wrong?

try to put it in modules instead of userModules.

Andrea,

I tried to move the folder AUtoOffSmart from /opt/z-way-server/automation/userModules to /opt/z-way-server/automation/modules without achieving the desired result. I then moved it back to the initial position.

This surprised me because a few days ago I complained that the old warnings were not removed due to a bug in the system and I was sure to find them into the dashborad along with any new ones. Surprisingly there was only one, this:

Code: Select all

Type: core
Timestamp: 16/05/15-14:13
Message:
Can not load modules.json from userModules/AutoOffSmart/module.json: SyntaxError: Unexpected token “

I told myself that it is not true that the old warning are not removed.
Can a Z-way expert clarify this point?

I am not savvy enough to figure out what to do, but I sense that the warning was generated as a result of the move of the folder in the folder AutoOffSmart userModules and may be due to a syntax error in the file module.json.

Comments?

There was an error in the file. Try with the one attached.

Andrea,

I inserted the new folder with the file you modified in /opt/z-way-server/automation/userModules and I got the following warning:

Code: Select all

Type: core
Timestamp: 16/05/15-20:17
Message:
Can not load modules.json from userModules/AutoOffSmart/module.json: SyntaxError: Unexpected token “

while the previous one was not present.

I noticed in the timestamp 20:17 while my pc was reporting 21:17.

Be sure to download the latest zip file. The error you receive is exactly the one I corrected: there was a “ character instead of ".
It works for me.

Andea,

what follows is the current contents of file module.json, located in the folder x
/opt/z-way-server/automation/userModules

Now in the dashboard I see the previous warning and the new one:

Additional Note: few minutes ago I changed battery to my Multisensor device!

Andrea,

here attached the content of the final part of the file /var/log/z-way-server.log of my raspberry (since this morning I started and restarted a couple of times the Raspi).

The warnings have not changed (are the three previously reported)

ecco in allegato il contenuto dellla parte finale del file /var/log/z-way-server.log del raspberry (da quando questa mattina ho avviato e riavviato un paio di volte il Raspi).

Gli warnings non sono cambiati (sono i 3 già riportati)
