After many frustrations I seem to have managed to get the Basic UI switching between schedules created on the Wiser Heat app. The Heating Boilerplate Tutorial was very helpful but with a Drayton Wiser system I think it is better to use openHAB to change schedules rather than having every room in manual mode and using openHAB to change set point temperatures.
This is a simplified version of how I setup my system to switch between a schedule for when I am at work during the day and a shedule for when I am at home.
I created a heating.items file containing:
String Heating_Schedule "Heating Schedule [%s]"
String Save_Heating_Schedule "Save Heating Mode [%s]"
Group HS
String FF_LivingRoom_Schedule "Living Room Heating Schedule [%s]" (HS) {channel="draytonwiser:room:deadbeef:livingroom:masterSchedule"}
String FF_Kitchen_Schedule "Kitchen Heating Schedule [%s]" (HS) {channel="draytonwiser:room:deadbeef:kitchen:masterSchedule"}
Group HS_Home
String FF_LivingRoom_Schedule_Home "Living Room Heating Schedule [%s]" (HS_Home)
String FF_Kitchen_Schedule_Home "Kitchen Heating Schedule [%s]" (HS_Home)
Group HS_Work
String FF_LivingRoom_Schedule_Work "Living Room Heating Schedule [%s]" (HS_Work)
String FF_Kitchen_Schedule_Work "Kitchen Heating Schedule [%s]" (HS_Work)
a heating.rules file containing:
val String prep_schedule_re = "s/\\{\"id\":\\d*,(.*),\"Type\":\"Heating\"\\}/\\{$1\\}/"
val String strip_home_re = "s/^(.*)_Home$/$1/"
val String strip_work_re = "s/^(.*)_Work$/$1/"
rule "Apply Heating Schedule"
when
Item Heating_Schedule received command
then
switch receivedCommand {
case "HOME": {
HS_Home.members.forEach[ i | sendCommand(transform("REGEX", strip_home_re, i.name), i.state.toString) ]
Save_Heating_Schedule.postUpdate("HOME")
logInfo("heating.rules", "Applied Home heating schedule")
}
case "WORK": {
HS_Work.members.forEach[ i | sendCommand(transform("REGEX", strip_work_re, i.name), i.state.toString) ]
Save_Heating_Schedule.postUpdate("WORK")
logInfo("heating.rules", "Applied Work heating schedule")
}
}
end
rule "Save Heating Schedule"
when
Item Save_Heating_Schedule received command
then
switch receivedCommand {
case "HOME": {
HS.members.forEach[ i | postUpdate(i.name+"_Home", transform("REGEX", prep_schedule_re, i.state.toString)) ]
Heating_Schedule.postUpdate("HOME")
logInfo("heating.rules", "Saved Home heating schedule")
}
case "WORK": {
HS.members.forEach[ i | postUpdate(i.name+"_Work", transform("REGEX", prep_schedule_re, i.state.toString)) ]
Heating_Schedule.postUpdate("WORK")
logInfo("heating.rules", "Saved Work heating schedule")
}
}
end
a mapdb.persist file containing:
Strategies {
default = everyChange
}
Items {
Heating_Schedule : strategy = everyChange, restoreOnStartup
HS*, HS_Home*, HS_Work* : strategy = everyChange, restoreOnStartup
}
and a home.sitemap file which included:
sitemap home label="Home" {
Frame label="Choose Heating Schedule" icon="radiator" {
Selection item=Heating_Schedule label="Heating Schedule []"
mappings=[
HOME="Home",
WORK="Work"
]
}
// ...
Frame label="Program Heating Schedule" icon="radiator" {
Selection item=Save_Heating_Schedule label="Copy from Wiser Heat to []"
mappings=[
HOME="Home",
WORK="Work"
]
}
}
Getting the rules working was the most frustrating thing. I tried to use a javascript transform to strip out the extra “id” and “Type” JSON items but could not get it to work and I had to resort to a regex transform.
