We are working on it. The thing is not so simple as it seems to be. We would like to make something really cool! Please wait a couple of months. Byt the end of June there would be some working prototype and in July we plan to do massive tests and share the protocol.

hello,
some ideas:
mode conditions Zipabox that looks cool,
switch block "Zipabox to script language (JS, lua: there are many examples)
allow HTTP commands
etc ...

We have a totally different idea. Hope it will be more interesting.

We are also impatiente!

The overview is not ready yet. We still have quite a lot of battles in our team about the future design.

is there any way to make an automation for sending data via HTTP-Request

I've seen that z-way has an automation folder and that this is also the way to run the openremote scripts.
I'm wondering whether I can just write some easy while loop somewhere where z-way pings an url or sends some http request upon change of a switch?

would this be possible? no need for a full ui or the like...

Of course I can just write a python script (outside of z-way) that constantly checks the state of a switch and acts then. But I would like to have it driven by the event of that switch and not constantly checking on it...

I was just wondering how the automation is coming along?
I am really looking forward to get it, even if it is not perfect.
One already gets some ideas looking at the js scripts provided in the automation folder.
I can also already hook into events triggered from certain devices.
Looking at AutoOff.js I already get the feeling that much smarter ways of doing things are ahead.
I especially like $.devices.filter and the loop var i in zway.devices[this.id].instances.

Thanks for providing all this software.
Today I took the time and looked at a lot of your js code. Thats quite a codebase you got there....
