(Continuing from Low Cost (Amazon Dash Button) Washing Machine Timer - #11 by ThomDietrich)

@ThomDietrich What is the OH2 equivalent of

Switch KodiSystemState "Kodi State" <kodi> (gKodi) {xbmc="<[#livingRoom|System.State]"}

as used here. These in OH2 format would be nice too.

Did you check the thing status? (via Remote Console or REST API for example)

Something like this?

curl --header "Content-Type: text/plain" --request GET  http://OHip:8080/rest/items/Kodi

One option but your URL is wrong. It’s probably simpler to use the web frontend :slight_smile: Check out: http://OHip:8080/doc/index.html

This worked as a start,

Switch KodiSystemState

rule "Find out whether Kodi is alive"
        when
                Thing "kodi:kodi:5e2bea71" changed
        then
                var status = ThingAction.getThingStatusInfo("kodi:kodi:5e2bea71").getStatus()
                if (status.toString() == 'OFFLINE')
                {
                        KodiSystemState.postUpdate(OFF)
                }
                else
                {
                        KodiSystemState.postUpdate(ON)
                }
end

I forgot that this PR is not merged yet: Add documentation for the rule and action to get thing status. by kceiw · Pull Request #463 · openhab/openhab-docs · GitHub
Glad you found the solution anyhow.

So now that this is settled, any chance you are going to update my rules for the new binding? :smile:
