Rule for devices battery level ?
-
No, it's not yet available.
@toggledbits I'm testing this new function, but somehow it does not show all the devices I'm expecting it to show. See examples below
Array is empty, although it should contain one device:
Strange, as device 216 definitely has capability "x_vera_device"
-
One of the issues I see in
matchEntities()as it currently works is that it returns an array of entity objects with attribute values, but it does not update that array when any of the returned entities' attributes or other values changes. So it's certain, then, that the attributes will go stale in the result array.For the next build, I will change the definition of this function to return canonical entity IDs only, rather than entity objects, so you will have to use
getEntity()in youreachover the results, as you did with yourtest_arrayexample, and this will ensure that you are always looking at the latest attributes. You can test this theory now by modifying youreachford_failure_listto usegetEntity( id.canonical_id ).Author of Multi-system Reactor and Reactor, DelayLight, Switchboard, and about a dozen other plugins that run on Vera and openLuup.

@toggledbits did what you suggested, but situation didn't really change, array is still empty:
@tunnus I had some issues as well. I got an empty array and when tried getEntity() I got some "Type Error". Was sure I was doing something wrong but I restarted Reactor and copied the same expression to a new one and suddenly it worked.
@toggledbits I also noticed the array isn't updated when entity changed so I pulse the trigger every minute to update it. Will change to getEntity() for next update. -
Can you show the entity detail for device 216 please?

Perfect! Thank you. I think I see what's going on. New build coming later today...

How do I change my rule for devices with low batteries to use a dynamic array instead of the static manual array I am using currently ?
battery_device_list:
Thanks
-
I think this may work then, I just need to edit my existing rule:
matchEntities ({controller: 'vera', capability: ['battery_power']})EDITED rule:
@cw-kid You could also do all that in one expression if you prefer and are not using the other ones for anything else.
join( each id in matchEntities( { controller: 'vera', capability: 'battery_power' } ): do device=getEntity( id ), device.attributes.battery_power.level > 0.1 ? null : device.name + " at " + device.attributes.battery_power.level * 100 + " percent" done, ", " ) -

Just a point here: why limit
matchEntities()to one controller? Would you not perhaps want an alert for a device on any controller that has a low battery level?Also, don't forget about the
format()function, which is meant for things like this...device.attributes.battery_power.level > 0.1 ? null : format( "{} at {:.1%}", device.name, device.attributes.battery_power.level )Oh, and in my home, any battery-operated device would be long dead if it was reporting 10% (0.1). Most of mine seem to start to malfunction below 50%.

@toggledbits I'm trying to understand the pros and cons of using this vs the new DynamicGroupController, could you give a short summation?
Hi @crille !
In this post we are having this discussion about Dynamic, I am having a hard time getting it to work, but it will be very good, the concept is great and this will make it much easier.

@wmarcolin Yes, but the goal seems to be the same so what's the pros of doing it in the DynamicGroupController? More efficient, more dynamic, less complex etc, than a global expression like the one above?
I'm all up for new improved ways of doing things just need an explanation of why

I'm all up for new improved ways of doing things just need an explanation of whyIn my opinion, everything you put in: more efficient, more dynamic, less complex. Below is a screenshot of how I do it today, and it would be replaced only by the format expression already directly inside a message as per telegram.
I will also use it to easily know all the devices that will be tripped in the house, see the other post for what I am adding after the battery. Besides this, unifying devices that for example are triggered by a contact or movement and have different expressions, will help unify and set up the alarm trigger management.
