openHAB 4.0 SNAPSHOT discussion

Can you point me to more context on this? jrubyscripting recently implemented its own script file watcher heavily based on the JS scripting one. I’m guessing it’s a Nashorn vs. JS issue, but I want to be sure.

I discovered that issue some time ago, @J-N-K explained it here and is also working on a solution: in core Refactor WatchService by J-N-K · Pull Request #3004 · openhab/openhab-core · GitHub and for the addons Adapt addons to core watch service changes by J-N-K · Pull Request #14004 · openhab/openhab-addons · GitHub.
@ccutrer I haven‘t had a closer look at the addon PR yet, but it seems like a fix for JRubyScripting is also part of it.

@rlkoshak

Right, but you could still use the JS transform. Now the JS transform is gone. That’s my point. You have to use SCRIPT now.

@rlkoshak
I‘ve already migrated my JS transformations to SCRIPT, but currently inline scripts and a transformation profile for Items are missing. I can try to ping you when there are PRs for those, but I cannot promise to not forget

@jimtng

Is inline SCRIPT transformation supported?

I know what you mean, like JS transform is providing it at the moment.
This is not supported yet, but @J-N-K said that it is not too difficult to add that.
