This also wont work on mobile.
Hey @Jero,
Athom approved it themself.
I would asume that if they had an issue with using the type=code, the would have let me know when i submitted it for review.
And âYou should really not abuse things that are not ment for your app.â i dont fully agree with, i am just trying to create the best UI/UX i can (which is pretty limited for devâs), it just needs to work correctly (and be allowed)!
(Using the playbutton will generate an error-with-result which is then show in the box below.)
But, thanks(!) for pointing out that it doesnât work in Default flows, and you are (ofc.) right about that.
So, i just change the âcodeâ to âtextâ, since i want this to work correctly, also in default flows.
Itâs in test and submitted it for review (perhaps you can get it through quickly 
) .
Created flows will keep working like they did before.
The problem is this is not documented. If at some point it is changed your app breaks. Itâs also confusing to users that there is a docs button for your Flow card pointing to HomeyScriptâs docs. This is a bad UX I would say.
There have been plans to make this type of argument available to app developers at some point but it just has not been done yet.
You are right this should have been prevented at the review proces.
Well, i vote a Yes for this, because it would seriously improve coding and expressions within flowcards.
Well, iâll asume youâll add it 
Yeah i know, you are right about that: i just didnât see any way to prevent or circumvent that
How do I get from my current Better Logic installation to the new Better Logic Library, with loss of variables?
You can first export your variables if you like, but, you can just update BL: variables will not be removed!
That was more piece-of-cake than I expected, ⌠thanks!!!

Added (in test):
A BLL expression conditional card.
I am trying to get a logarithmic formula to work but it is giving me âError executing expression: Undefined symbol mathâ.
I am using âmath.log(10000)â as a test for now, pretty simple, but not working.
What am I doing wrong?

Which flowcard are you using?
The Math.JS card?
Then you do not need to add math. as prefix.
Or are you using the BLL expression flowcards?

How can i format the following date:
yyyyMMddhhmmss ?
When i enter this in the format card is see below exactly what i wanted but the card itself does not save this formatting.
Or is there also a format for unixtime stamp:
âunixtimestampâ results in 1674949936 as formatted text, this would also work for me.
I want to use this to generate a file name, in file name : signs are not allowed, so i cannot use this.

You need to type and then select the first choise (what you typed).
Just an idea, you can also âpre-formatâ your desired timestamp.
With BLL app settings, I entered your date into the DATETIMELONG *** field:
Now it is a pre-defined custom date format.
Now I can use DATETIMELONG as a pre-defined custom date, and I donât need to remember the yyyyMMdd⌠string, but, that still works as well:
***) It is just a field I could âmisuseâ for this purpose, while I donât use the original format, which is:

Just updated BLL to version 2.3.1:
- Settings UI Improvements.
- Custom datetime definitions can now be added in the Settings:
These definitions can than be used within a datetime format:
Just some Better Logic!

But it might be used by other apps to generate a datetime format (like Google Services, BLL Settings/Variables and (almost) SimpleLog.
So, now you can add your own custom format definitions

Thanks, thatâs a better solution to use

This was always the plan
Somewhere next, it will also show app-prefixes: so you can alter how data in other apps is displayed per-view or tabel etc.
First improve the variable table.

Arie I can see youâve added HTTP requests to the app, is it at all possible to do WSS web socket messaging, or is that too complex?
