[solved]dummy button array

---

Hi there,

Using pimatic since last week to control klikaan klikuit devices and several other stuff.
Included Philips Hue scenes yesterday and this is working with shellswitch devices!

But what I would like to see is a button array where you can define up to 8 push buttons in 1 line.
Each button should trigger a shell request.
This way it would be possible to create a button array to select different hue scenes.

Is this possible?
(as an example: the systembuttons device is what it should look like but with more buttons and when a button is pressed a predefined curl request should be sent)

Exanple:

    {
      "buttons": [
        {
          "id": "beneden-lampen-dressoir-low",
          "text": "laag"
        },
        {
          "id": "beneden-lampen-dressoir-full",
          "text": "hoog"
        }
      ],
      "id": "dressoir-button",
      "name": "Dressoir dimmen",
      "class": "ButtonsDevice"
    },

Oh wow so this is possible!
Gave me a lot of errors when trying an example from another forum.
Will look in to this tonight, this example should work when I copy it as is in config.json I assume?

Thanks!!!

In pimatic GUI click on the blue dot in the upper left corner, choose “config” -> change “view” to “code” in the upper right corner choose Edit. Enter password, paste this sample in the config under
"devices": [

Save and reboot

That simple hahahaha.
Should have asked earlier. Well learned a lot already in editing and configuring.
Ok last one for now then:
Can I trigger a curl request with these buttons? That would make it complete!

Thanks!

IF beneden-lampen-dressoir-full is pressed THEN execute "sudo curl  --silent --data 'action=matrix_brightness&value={($esp-led-dimmer.dimlevel/5)}' http://192.168.2.144/GetCommand > /dev/null"

That should do it! Thanks again

one step further, no errors this time but scene not activated too:

execute “sudo curl --silent --request PUT --data ‘“scene”:“e3fdf2a46-on-0”’ http://192.168.1.54/api/developer/groups/0/action >/dev/null”

you need to escape the "

try that : execute "sudo curl --silent --request PUT --data '\"scene\":\"e3fdf2a46-on-0\"' http://192.168.1.54/api/developer/groups/0/action >/dev/null"

ok it is working
@Frank-Buurlage had the exact same problem as me and got it solved two months ago haha.

so for everybody trying to implement Philips Hue scenes in Pimatic use this as a template for your rule:

execute “curl -X PUT http://bridge ip/api/developername/groups/0/action -d ‘{ “scene”: “scene name”}’ -s”

On with the configuration
