I was looking into using Rule Machine to refresh this only between sunrise and sunset, rather than Pollster. But I’ve also been looking over other device code and the ST APIs. Why not just use runEvery15Minutes() to call refresh(), and stop doing so after dusk; e.g., I see that in the new open-source ecobee3 device:
UPDATE 2016-02-29: v0.9.13 Released for general Beta testing. Now with over 235 users!
UPDATE 2016-01-26: v0.7.5 Stable Released with Comfort Settings support. v0.8.0-RC1 Beta release with fanMode support released.
UPDATE 2016-01-16: We now have over 100 installs! Keep the feedback and requests coming!
UPDATE 2016-01-10: We now have over 75 people using the code! This should give us a good base to continue to squash any bugs, and to be able to focus on the features that most people want!
I am happy to finally provide my contribution for updated Ecobee devices and SmartApp.
I’ve built this as a fork off the SmartThingsPublic repository with the desire to have it rolled back in once it is in good shape. It also uses the existing Open Source license so that users won’t get stuck without …
This thread contains somewhat similar code (although he’s using runIn()), and handles the dawn/dusk.
The ‘RC1’ thread has become pretty long and hard to follow I have since made considerable changes/enhancements to the code based on what I have learned and a lot of great feedback from the community. So, I’m starting this new thread to ‘finalize’ the app and track the submission process (part of my goal for this project is to see what the submittal process looks like).
The code seems like it is pretty solid now and working well. I have cleaned up the code and added comments for the purposes of documentation. I am not a coder by profession so I’m sure there is still some stuff that is not quite ‘best practices’ and I welcome any and all suggestions along those lines.
Also, if any one cares, I’m open to suggestions regarding wording of dialogs, default values, selection list values, etc…
