[solved] Toggle orvibo plug

---

Hi there!

I use the plugins amazing-dash-button 0.9.5 and orvibo 0.0.2. Both work well. The plug can be switched on and off via the gui and the dash button is working fine. I created the rule
When name-of-the-dash-button is closed then toggle name-of-orvibo-plug

If I press the dash button the rule is executed, but it only works for switching on the plug. In he log I can see “info [pimatic]: rule dash-toggle-light: toggled state of name-of-orvibo-plug” but the lamp is not toggled, its only switched on. I can I switch it off? Or why is toggling not working?

@quotschmacher said in Toggle orvibo plug:

If I press the dash button the rule is executed, but it only works for switching on the plug.

I can confirm this behaviour. Most likely, it is a bug.

So I would guess the toggle-mechanism isn’t implemented correctly in the orvibo-plugin?
What would be an alternetive rule, to switch the plug on or off, depending on the actual state - as a work-around…

@quotschmacher Well, actually it is a bug in the getState() method. I have fixed the problem and filed a pull request https://github.com/thexperiments/pimatic-orvibo/pull/8

If you wish to apply the fix asap in your setup you can either change the file manually, or you can temporarilly install the package from my base, i.e install mwittig/pimatic-orvibo as described in “Method 1” - https://forum.pimatic.org/topic/1114/updated-how-to-install-a-plugin-from-github

Thank a lot for this quick response and solution. I couldn’t test it till now, but I think I can wait one week till there is a update.

With the new version of the plug in (v0.0.3) everything works as expected. Thanks!
