Thermostat EXTRAS SETUP / STATE #9

Open daleonov100 opened 3 years ago

daleonov100 commented 3 years ago

Where I get an xml schema for thermostat extras? I'm interesting about valid object types and his attributes

spike411 commented 3 years ago

I don't have any schema but I used the attached test thermostat + XML/code to test the various Extras types. Unfortunately e.g. multiselect does not work and my notes have been lost with the old Control4 dealer forum. I also remember the Weather Station (Weather Underground) driver used to use some picture/icon Extras type but that is no longer the case and it's not documented.

Maybe you will find it useful.

thermostat_test.zip test_extras.txt test_setup.txt test_extras_setup_state.txt

Maybe you will find it useful.

Thanks!

I just checked that the old DriverWorks SDK OS 3.1.3 Proxy and Protocol Guide.chm had this section: Understanding Extras

This seems to be missing from the online/GitHub version.

Although it had some formatting issues and wasn't 100% clear, it sure was useful.

Looks like the object type checkbox non-functional in ios control4 app. This code works well on T* panels and android app, but not work on ios app. Any clue? or this is known bug?


xml1 = [[<extras_setup>
    <extra>
        <section label="Extra parametes">
            <object type="checkbox" id="TH_EXTRAS1" label="Parameter1" command="extras" />
        </section>
    </extra>
</extras_setup>]]
C4:SendToProxy(DEFAULT_PROXY_BINDINGID, "EXTRAS_SETUP_CHANGED", { XML = xml1})

xml2 = [[<extras_state>
    <extra>
        <object id="TH_EXTRAS1" hidden="false" value="true" />
    </extra>
</extras_state>]]
C4:SendToProxy(DEFAULT_PROXY_BINDINGID, "EXTRAS_STATE_CHANGED", { XML = xml2})

I'm seeing the same! :/

BTW you have a typo in your XML: comand="extras" should be command="extras".

daleonov100 commented 3 years ago

yes, I see typos, bad cut&paste :)

daleonov100 commented 3 years ago

Interesting, what do I do to escalate this bug?

spike411 commented 3 years ago

Seems like Control4 is more responsive on the dealer 'forum': https://tech.control4.com/s/discussions

It seems to be an app-specific issue anyway, not really DriverWorks SDK issue.

I've been watching this commentary - @spike411 is right that the best place to report non-Driverworks issues (like this one) is on the Control4 Tech Community. For the documentation on Extras, I'll tag in @jmcgeeverC4 to see if that's something that we can add back into the P&P guide.
