Querying Events

Developer Programs Writing SmartApps

EDIT: I figured it out. I had made a mistake and was calling a void method instead of Def.

I have gone over the docs multiple times, and I cannot seem to get a list of the last 10 events for a device.

When I call device.events(), it returns a list like this of objects like this

physicalgraph.app.EventWrapper@665423fe

They don’t appear to to have any of the methods or attributes listed under the taxonomy

Look in your IDE under hub>list events

It shows all your hub events, the capability and the value. If you click on the event it gives you an even deeper drill down of information

Thanks, but this was for an external app I am using to query events and analyze them.

Hi jodyalbritton,
When I call device.events(), it returns a list like this of objects like this

physicalgraph.app.EventWrapper@665423fe

Any idea how to parse it and get all values like description and all.

This should be what you are looking for.

  def listDeviceEvents() {
        def numEvents = 20
        def id = params.id
        def device = allDevices?.find{it.id == id}

        if (!device) {
            httpError(404, "Device not found")
        } else {
            log.debug "Retrieving last $numEvents events"
            def events = device.events(max: numEvents)
            def result = events.collect{item(device, it)}
            log.debug "Returnings EVENTS: $result"
            result
        }
    }
