Repetition or loop in rules
Hi. I'm using a time triggered rule to switch on an ir controlled LED ceiling lamp. That works great so far. But instead of switching the lamp just on, I'd rather like to dim it up slowly. To do that I'd have to send the "increase brightness" ir command several times (80 times, precisely)....

Re: AC Dimmer for ESPeasy
DeNB3rt, I doubt that it's doable with the current structure of ESPEasy. You'd be better off using an Arduino Nano (or bare AVR) as an I/O expander. You can use the expansion interface and the example code to send an analog value to the Arduino, and let it do the phase cut dimming. There's a lot of ...

Re: Support for ESP32 - the story so far
Jack Tan, the maker of the Noduino Quantum board (http://wiki.jackslab.org/Noduino_Quantum) has some interesting examples of how to use internal ESP32 hardware, that isn't yet documented and/or supported in the official SDK, like ADC, hall sensor, temperature sensor, etc. Link to his githup fork: ht...

Re: Support for ESP32 - the story so far
Yesterday, I received a Sparkfun ESP32 Thing. Did some tests with the SDK, and had fun with the easter egg BASIC. I was at least able to control an ESPEasy node by calling its event triggering URLs from the ESP32.. But there are still lots of things missing, that will hopefully be added in the comin...

Re: Wifi Candle - illuminate with ESPEasy (WS2812)
I uploaded my basic test plugin for neopixel in the playground: I'm just testing it. Great! Exactly what I was searching for, because I'm just modifying a Chinese LED light bulb by adding an ESP and some WS2812, and I want to use it as a universal status indicator for my home automation. Like, puls...

Re: Toggle Relay with Rules?
I experienced the same thing once, but then I optimized the delay settings in ESPEasy, and I took care of the settings in the Arduino IDE, like flash mode QUI, 80MHz flash speed, etc. I can't even tell exactly what setting was the most effective, but afterwards the lag was gone. If this still doesn'...

Re: OLED Scrolling Display
namirda, I can confirm that it works. Wemos D1 Mini, Wemos D1 Oled shield, BME280. Display cycles through temperature, humidity, air pressure and time. The only issue is, that the Wemos Oled display is smaller than the normal ones, it has only 64 x 48 pixels. The standard Oled plugin has now an opti...

Well, you could use MySensors nodes, as they're able to route, and use one ESP8266 as gateway.

Re: Rules GPIO state and toggle
So I tried to add another remote switch, using the udp sync method, as calling urls from rules isn't yet implemented. I defined a toggle switch on the new board, and added the following rule: on Lightswitch2#value do sendTo 1,event,toggle endon This works, but isn't stable. After a while, the remote...

Re: Rules GPIO state and toggle
Glad I could help. Next thing to try would be coupling two or more ESP8266 directly (without AP), and using one as relay driver and switch input, the other ones only as remote switches. Maybe by just letting the remote ones call the event URL, or using the new EasyGlobalSync function. BTW: The Wiki ...

Re: SPIFFS - Rich Webgui is possible
Very interesting project, thanks for the link.
As for SPIFFS in general: I think that would mean forking ESPEasy into a completely different version for modules with >= 4MB Flash.
Maybe something that's better left to the ESP32.

Re: More than one generic HTTP server IP possible?
You could either use FHEM2FHEM to connect the two FHEM servers, or send the data to an MQTT broker first.
From there, an unlimited number of clients can get the data.

Re: Rules, syntax in if ...
Or you could just define the switch input as a "Push Button Active Low" and omit the second rule, because the switch will toggle automatically.

Re: Digital debounce on switch input
The switch is already debounced, otherwise it would trigger multiple events with a normal switch. So there must be a debounce time defined in the source, that you could alter. Otherwise, you could use a timer in the rules for that. Trigger the timer when the switch closes, and when the timer has exp...

Re: Rules GPIO state and toggle
Just try it, it'll work with a push button. The button will be debounced and the button value only changes when a high to low edge is detected (active low switch), or when a low to high edge is detected (active high switch). Meaning, every time you push the button, the value Button#Value toggles. It...

Re: Rules GPIO state and toggle
Define your switch as "Switch Button Type: Push Button Active Low".
The write the rule:
on Button#Value do
if [Button#Value] = 1
EXTGPIO,16,1
else
EXTGPIO,16,0
endif
endon
Just tried it, works as a toggle button.

Re: Rules GPIO state and toggle
The example from the wiki works, it toggles the output.
So they just define also the output as a switch, and read it's state.

Re: Rules GPIO state and toggle
What about using the switch type "push button" like shown in the wiki: http://www.esp8266.nu/index.php/Switch Instead of a conventional state or latching push button, you could also use a momentary push button switch. In this case the ESP Easy will toggle between on/off. Also, this pic sho...
