VoxCommando Basics and Core Features / Changing options
« on: April 20, 2014, 05:55:42 PM »
I know for the time being VC support changing just 2 options ... so I am trying to come with a work around what I need now is to replace the prefix in the options ....

the idea, read options.xml ... replace option line ... write file ... do full restart ...

however again I am failing with string manipulation  :bonk , I tried both results.replace and results.regexreplace

as far as I know WOL is not implemented in WiFi adapters ... in other words WOL can't wake up a device through LAN
the logic is wifi for portable devices ... and keeping wifi on will drain the battery sooner or later then the device can not be waked-up ... if the device is stationed, then there is always a way to connected to wired network and turn off wifi

here is my InsteOn group and related xml files...
I bet James or Kalle can improve the status command, as I did not get the string matching functions very well  :bonk

you might see a call for a function called feedback ... that is basically to call TTS with various options to give it a personality ... and I like programming or scripting with functions or subroutines concepts. much easier to debug and change

For remote shutdown you can use command line to shut down, restart, hibernate ...etc.
Just open command line, type
    shutdown /?
And follow the options

As far as waking up a PC running VC it is easy : creat a task in windows task scheduler ... To put VC in listening or standby mode and in the option there is a checkbox for wake-up PC to run this task

Sweet ....
Another couple of questions:
1. where I can learn about those patern , what if I wanted to extract the 7th character out of 20 characters long string?
2. I tried to convert to hex from decimal using python int( decimal var, 16). And it did not work

Just a note abt my programming experience... I used vb, autolisp, lua scripting ... So python is a bit strange for me

Hi kalle,
yes the string is a result from a command ...  in fact it is the status feedback of insteon devices ... I managed to cut it down to 5 characters only using result.replace. That was kind of easy as there is clear patterns ... now I need to read the last 2 characters that will give if the device is on, off or dim level ...

ex "B10FF" is fully on as FF is the level (Hex)
