Astro Binding: Triggering channel for Season

Add-ons Bindings
1

hi,
the documentation of the Astro binding https://docs.openhab.org/addons/bindings/astro/readme.html does not list the Season as valid Triggering Channel. But I found https://github.com/openhab/openhab2-addons/pull/1519/files/14826b39069b16870e1bdd0f19f777b71474365f which indeed lists Season as Triggering Channel.

String      Season_Name          "Saison [MAP(astro.map):%s]"                               (Astro) {channel="astro:sun:home:season#name"}

rule "triggering on season name"
    when   
        Channel "astro:sun:home:season#name" changed 
//or should the trigger be on event?: Channel "astro:sun:home:season#event" changed
        then
            if (Season_Name.state.toString.contains("SPRING")) (_//do something_)
            else if (Season_Name.state.toString.contains("SUMMER")) (_//do something_)
            else if (Season_Name.state.toString.contains("AUTUMN")) (_//do something_)
    end

I don`t want to wait for Spring to see if the rule shoots, can someone doublecheck please?
thanks

I don’t know if it’s triggering, but if you can’t see in logs then another option is to change the rule the first if, checks for AUTUMN or the season you need it now.

I know that rule

Season_Name.state.toString.contains("AUTUMN")

will work, but I need to know if the trigger of that rule shoots.

If in doubt just create an item:

String Season { "channel=astro:sun:home:season#name" }

rule "Season Changed"
when
    Item Season changed
then
    ....
end
