This has now been merged into the main docs (should be available sometime in the next day or so after the next build). Thanks for all comments and edits! I’m closing this thread now. rlkoshak This Wiki topic’s goal is to serve as a working document, in order to provide an up-to-date tutorial for …

I’ve stared playing with Rules in the new editor. This is much better than the old PaperUI interface by far. I’m also converting my Rules over to JavaScript as I want my examples to be based on something that the users will have by default without needing to install other stuff. I’ve updated the do…

I have also a need for that item 2. I’m having trouble with Ecmascript 5. I can write many things in version 6, but they are not working here. How does one print something to the events log? I found l found the code from another post, retrieving a logger from Java, but I am not seeing the output…

The two links you provided are too the same page. When I was talking about voice rules, I meant the ones receiving commands from voice recognition. I have a bunch of rules to turn on scenes and actions that I wouldn’t want to go without. Can I take my old rules and just put them in the rules direct…

Yes, that should mostly work. There are a couple minor breaking changes, the biggest of which is Joda DateTime is related with ZonedDateTime and there are some minor differences between the two. If you’ve already got the voice to text set up you have an Item that received the text, right? So trigge…

events.sendCommand requires two strings as arguments. events.sendCommand(event.itemName + "_Update", ZonedDateTime.now().toString()); But there is a further complication as I think ZonedDateTime does not provide an ISO 8601 formatted string by default. So it’s probably better to use: events.sendC…

[image] rlkoshak: So it’s probably better to use: It works, thanks! Offtopic: Looking at your jiton rules, I rewrote mine on a jiton, are there any of your rules rewritten in Java for OH3? In them you can always find the answer to most of the questions. Thanks for doing this!
