Hey guys,
Need some help here. I am looking for a way to log multiple actions in an app i created/modified. I took the scenes app i found on here and added thermostat capability to it. But what i would like to do is add logging that would post to the “Hello, Home” log. I was thinking something like this…
def message(Hi, i turned off the Dinning Room, Upstairs Office, and Kitchen Lights)
sendNotificationEvent(message)
def message(Hi, I Tuned on the Porch Light as well as the Basement Light)
sendNotificationEvent(message)
What i need help with is how to create the string that will make the message up. The app i am going to be adding this logging to is below. I can’t figure out how to collect the multiple lights I select in the various sections to a string so they will pull the lights i select from each section into the string when the app runs. Any help would be appreciated!!
preferences {
section("When I Change To This Mode") {
input "newMode", "mode", title: "Mode?"
}
section("Dim These Lights") {
input "MultilevelSwitch", "capability.switchLevel", multiple: true, required: false
input "number", "number", title: "Percentage, 0-99", required: false
}
section("Turn On These Switches"){
input "switcheson", "capability.switch", multiple: true, required: false
}
section("Turn Off These Switches"){
input "switchesoff", "capability.switch", multiple: true, required: false
}
section("Choose thermostat... ") {
input "thermostat", "capability.thermostat"
input "heatingSetpoint", "number", title: "Heat - Degrees Fahrenheit?"
input "coolingSetpoint", "number", title: "Cool - Degrees Fahrenheit?"
}
}
def installed() {
