Simple auto Off via webgui

Setup, Configuration and Use Scripts & Rules
1

Hi guys,
I’m using openhab 3,

in my old installation I used

rule "Reset button"
when
    Item voordeur received command ON
then
    createTimer(now.plusMillis(500), [ | voordeur .sendCommand(OFF) ] )
end

And this worked perfectly, I’m now trying to remake everything trough the gui for easy of acces,
but I can’t seem to find how to replicate a simple auto off after x seconds,

anyone have an idea how to do this via the rule builder (worst case via the code tab in the rule editor)

Hi,
you can add meta data for expiration.

But expire method won’t go down to 500mS.

You can create a rule using UI, choose to include a DSL script action section, and paste in the same createTimer() code

in this case, not really an issue.
its just to give a pulse to the door relais which has a 3 seconds timer built in in its hardware :slight_smile:

But the more options the merrier for future reference :slight_smile:
