Astrobinding offset

Add-ons Bindings

Hello everyone,
i’m so sorry but i used OPENHAB since v1, so with 3rd versione become so hard convert my config!

I use item files instead of openhab panel.

I use simply rules to turn on and off all the lights, but doesn’t works
astro:sun:local:rise#event

This is the things configuration:
astro:sun:home [ geolocation=“42.xyz,12.xyz”, interval=60 ]
astro:moon:home [ geolocation=“42.xyz,12.xyz”, interval=60 ]
astro:sun:local [ geolocation=“42.xyz,12.xyz”, interval=60 ]
{
Channels:
Type rangeEvent : rise#event [
offset=-40
]
Type rangeEvent : set#event [
offset=20
]
}

Where is the error?

Hi,
first, please use Code-Fences for the code as your “quotation marks” seems to be “wrong”.

astro:sun:local [ geolocation=“42.xyz,12.xyz”, interval=60 ]
{
Channels:
Type rangeEvent : rise#event [
offset=-40
]
Type rangeEvent : set#event [
offset=20
]
}

Second, can you post a rule you use ?

Thanks for your help.


rule "Luci esterne alba"
when
        Channel 'astro:sun:local:rise#event' triggered START
then
        sendCommand(Light_applique, OFF)
        Thread::sleep(500)
        sendCommand(Light_plafoniera, OFF)
        Thread::sleep(500)
        sendCommand(Light_garage, OFF)
        Thread::sleep(500)
        sendCommand(Light_cancello, OFF)
        Thread::sleep(500)
        sendCommand(Luce_terrazzarnotte, OFF)
        Thread::sleep(500)
        sendCommand(Luce_giardino, OFF)
        Thread::sleep(500)
        sendCommand(Luce_lavanderia, OFF)
        Thread::sleep(500)
        sendCommand(Luce_portone, OFF)
        Thread::sleep(500)
        sendCommand(LED_rampa, OFF)
        Thread::sleep(500)
        sendCommand(Luce_scale, OFF)
        Thread::sleep(500)
        sendCommand(Luce_esterno, OFF)
        Thread::sleep(500)
end

See here my complete Astro-Thing:

//    Astro - Binding Geo-Position  geolocation="45.33654,3.45678,502"

// astronomische Jahreszeiten (Tag- und Nachtgleiche)
Thing astro:sun:local     "Sonnen Daten"                   [geolocation="45.33654,9.8709123,502", interval=300]
Thing astro:moon:local    "Mond Daten"                     [geolocation="45.33654,9.8709123,502", interval=300]
                                        
// Meteorologische Jahreszeiten

Thing astro:sun:stowing4   "Offset 50"                     [geolocation="45.33654,9.8709123,502", interval=300]{
  Channels:
    Type rangeEvent : set#event [
      offset=50
    ]
    Type start : set#start [
      offset=50
    ]
    Type end : set#end [
      offset=50
    ]
    Type rangeEvent : astroDusk#event [
      offset=50
    ]
    Type rangeEvent : night#event [
      offset=50
    ]
    Type rangeEvent : noon#event [
      offset=50
    ]
    Type start : noon#start [
      offset=50
    ]
    Type start : noon#end [
      offset=50
    ]
      Type rangeEvent : rise#event [
      offset=50
    ]
    Type start : rise#start [
      offset=50
    ]
    Type end : rise#end [
      offset=50
    ]
}

You will see several Things for the different purposes. One of them (the fourth) is for offset use and a rule which works with those offset events.

rule "Sunset_50 Start"
    when
            Channel 'astro:sun:stowing4:set#event' triggered START
    then
        logInfo("astro-rules" + '_03', " Sunset_50 Start. START")
        //EG_gEG_Kind2_Licht.sendCommand(ON)
end
//===============================================================================
rule "Sunset_50 Ende"
    when
            Channel 'astro:sun:stowing4:set#event' triggered END
    then
        logInfo("astro-rules" + '_04', " Sunset_50 Ende. END")
        //EG_gEG_Kind2_Licht.sendCommand(ON)
end
//===============================================================================

and the log for those events:

2022-03-23 19:25:00.006 [INFO ] [hab.core.model.script.astro-rules_03] -  Sunset_50 Start. START
2022-03-23 19:28:00.006 [INFO ] [hab.core.model.script.astro-rules_04] -  Sunset_50 Ende. END

So from what I can see, your Rule looks quite ok, but the Action-Type “sendCommand” only seems to accept Strings, as i understand:

....
sendCommand(Light_applique, "OFF")
.....

Please have a look in the docs here

Does your xxx.things file load correctly? (see your openhab.log)
Does the event fire at any time? (see your events.log)
Does your xxx.rules file load correctly? (see your openhab.log)
