Need ReGex for setter Please

[GevaudanBeast]

Hello,

I would like to ask you for a small change in order to make my roller shutters work.

My home automation API needs to be able to receive (SETTER) with a body request.

Here is an example to determine the desired position of a roller shutter: http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/api/core/ana/196642?ApiKey=xxxx&option=filter_state

Method: PUT

Request body (your "%d"): {"value":xxx}

Can you add that please?

Thank you!

Hi,

Do you desire a HTTP body that eventually requests the curtain to move to a certain position? Or a getter to retrieve the current position (your issue title and text conflict a bit).

If you need a setter, I don't think you will need a RegEx, but just a simple %d replacement for the body. The body itself can already be specified using the URL object.

I will look into this once I have some time this week.

Hello, Indeed I made a mistake in the title, it is indeed the "setter" part of which I wish an improvement. You are right, I don't need ReGex, but to be able to move the "%d" in the body: {"value":%d} A big thank you if you have the possibility to do it, because I am unable to develop my own code...

Hi, In the meantime, I am preparing your future update. Does that sound right to you? Thx

       {
            "name": "Porte",
            "notificationID": "X4VR3-4",
            "getCurrentPosUrl": {
                "url": "http://xxxx/api/core/ana/196642?ApiKey=xxxx&option=filter_state",
                "method": "PUT"
            },
            "getCurrentPosRegEx": "^.+?\\\"value\\\"\\\\s*:\\\\s*(\\\\d+).*$",
            "setTargetPosUrl": {
                "url": "http://xxxx/api/core/ana/196638?ApiKey=xxxx&option=filter_state",
                "method": "PUT",
                "body": "{\"value\":%d}"
            },
            "accessory": "HttpCurtain"
        }

Sounds about right. Sorry I did not change it yet, but I certainly will somewhere the coming days.

Your regEx contains an error. Can you simplify it to:

\"value\"s:s([0-9]+)

[GevaudanBeast]

Thank you that seems work better :)

Hi,

Please try the new release with body setter %d support: v1.5.0.

[GevaudanBeast]

I try, just few minute.

I just tested for one of my shutters, it seems to work. There is just the loading wheel in Home app which turns continuously

Many thanks for your work. I allow myself to share your plugin on the forum where I participate so that others can use it (https://forum.gce-electronics.com/t/tuto-ipx800-v5-homebridge/14713). By any chance, have you developed a thermostat plugin using body requests?

I don't think you need the notificationId as I think your curtain doesn't send updates by itself to homebridge? If I am right you want to instead poll the curtain position with the pullInterval config setting. This should fix your continued rotation ik HomeKit. This is because HomeKit is waiting until the targetPos matches the currentPos. Without an update push this never happens.

Perfect, thank you !!!
