I have setup a sunset with offset rules and it fires correctly however I am trying to use it in two seperate .rules files - one file for my lights and another for my blinds (rollershutters).
In my lights.rules I have this:
rule "Sunset offset rule"
when
Channel 'astro:sun:home_offset15:set#event' triggered START
then
logInfo("Sunset", "Sunset offset rule trigerred!")
if (Entry_FrontGarden_Lights.state != ON) Entry_FrontGarden_Lights.sendCommand(ON)
end
In my blinds.rules I have this:
rule "Sunset offset rule"
when
Channel 'astro:sun:home_offset15:set#event' triggered START
then
logInfo("Blinds", "Sunset offset rule trigerred!")
Office_Front_Blinds.sendCommand(100)
Office_Side_Blinds.sendCommand(75)
if (Astro_Season.state.toString.contains("WINTER")) {
Courtyard_Door_Blind.sendCommand(100)
Courtyard_LHS_Blinds.sendCommand(100)
Courtyard_RHS_Blinds.sendCommand(100)
}
if (Astro_Season.state.toString.contains("SPRING")) {
Courtyard_Door_Blind.sendCommand(50)
Courtyard_LHS_Blinds.sendCommand(50)
Courtyard_RHS_Blinds.sendCommand(50)
}
if (Astro_Season.state.toString.contains("SUMMER")) {
Courtyard_Door_Blind.sendCommand(0)
Courtyard_LHS_Blinds.sendCommand(0)
Courtyard_RHS_Blinds.sendCommand(0)
}
if (Astro_Season.state.toString.contains("AUTUM")) {
Courtyard_Door_Blind.sendCommand(50)
Courtyard_LHS_Blinds.sendCommand(50)
Courtyard_RHS_Blinds.sendCommand(50)
}
end
when the event triggered today this was all that was recorded in the logtail:

So you can see the blinds.rules offset rule triggered ok but the one in lights.rules did not. Is this something I need to code around by combining the rules into one file - it kind of makes it clunky and hard to manage if you cannot have rules for the specific device types listed together.
