[logo] Note, in the first half of 2023 this rule template will be rewritten to only support JS Scripting and depend on the openhab_rules_tools. Debouncing is a technical term for the following behavior. After an initial event, ignore subsequent event for a certain amount of time to give it time t…

Thanks for sharing this Rule Template. I have quite a few anti-flapping timers that I will (over time as I make other changes) replace with this. I converted a couple of them to begin with, and it works great.

i implemented you code change, but i still get strange behaviour… i have a test setup like described in your post " Generic Presence Detection and i have this logs: 2022-04-03 22:08:20.833 [DEBUG] [el.script.Rules.rules_tools.Debounce] - Sending command OFF to Person1Presence 2022-04-03 22:08:20.85…

[image] krikk: does not trigger a change of Person1Presence… if the item Person1Presence_Raw goes to ON, shouldn’t this immediatly trigger Person1Presence to ON?? If that’s how the metadata is configured. Assuming you’ve not changed the metadata from above where “states” only lists OFF, then …

i am not sure you noticed the 5 minutes delay, so i reformated the logs: 22:08:20.833 Sending command OFF to Person1Presence 22:08:20.857 Item ‘Person1Presence’ received command OFF 22:08:20.862 Item ‘Presence’ changed from ON to OFF through Person1Presence 22:08:20.865 Item ‘Person1Presence’ ch…

I didn’t see the five minute delay. It’s hard to line thing up on a small screen. The relevant code is as follows: if(cfg["states"].length == 0 || (cfg["states"].length > 0 && cfg["states"].indexOf(event.itemState.toString()) >= 0)) { logger.debug("Debouncing " + event.itemName + " with proxy…

Done. That post is very old and in an initial implementation it was called “state” instead of “states”.

Thx for the fast reply, works for me perfectly. For my rule I added some debug logging: else { logger.debug(event.itemName + " changed to " + event.itemState + " which is not debouncing"); if (this.timers.hasTimer(event.itemName)) { logger.debug("cancelling timer for " + event.itemName); …

Two minor suggestions: Step-by-step clarification [image] rlkoshak: In the UI, navigate to the “raw” Item, click on “Add Metadata” and enter “debounce” as the namespace. Should probably be In the UI, navigate to the “raw” Item, click on “Add Metadata”, click “Enter Custom Namespace…” (un…

Hmm I would like to several debounce rules configured, many of them operating on a single “raw” item. I am thinking of I really need several “debounce group items” or could I simply slap all the raw items into single group? I have actually currently pointed the rules towards the raw items (instead…
