[APP][Pro] LaMetric Time (Community App)

Hi, La Metric development team,

I’m a pleased user of My LaMetric for some years now. Of course I saw that there is an Homey app for it, but only on the Homey Pro, not on the Homey Bridge, although development is mentioned. Any plans and timeline that can be shared?

Thanks in advance!
Wim

This is a community app, not an app made by Lametric.

I have asked Lametric if they want to take over the app themselves, but they refused. So probably it won’t be available for Homey Bridge.

Hi,

Apps can be activated, but not sure if it is possible to hide / unhide.

You can have a look at the API doc here if you want:

https://lametric-documentation.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reference-docs/device-apps.html

Thats probably what im looking for, but i would need an deactivate to, and from what i can see theres only activate.

I want to be able to let a app/widget be shown in the rotation under some circumstances

Hi, I am planning to buy a Lametric Time, but the comments on the app page in Homey left me wondering if the integration to Homey currently works? If not, I suppose integrating through IFTTT is a feasible workaround.

The integration in Homey works perfectly.

Is there a way to turn of the display by flow?

51

Yes. In dark mode, only three very dimly lit dots are displayed at the bottom left.
Only messages with a high priority are displayed. The display then returns to dark mode.

Next to dark mode, there is a “blackout” app that you can install and enable, that will completely make all the LEDs turn black. It will then still display all notifications too.

Would it be possible to have a Homey action card (Then) to send the Indicator JSON frame to selected widget.

Maybe one easy action card:

  • Update Indicator with “Text” and “Icon code”

And one advanced action card:

  • Update Indicator with “JSON” - Where multiple frames can be added.

This however would need a companion “Homey” app available from LaMetric Market.
The Update Indicator cards should link automatically the Homey widget on LaMetric Time.

I’m now doing this http request locally to the LaMetric, but it is quite complex to setup, this could make it nice and easy for all users.

Difference to Notification is that it wouldn’t be immediate, but just wait for it’s turn for the widget to show up.

Maybe use LaMetric’s own Message Board app for it?
/api/v2/device/apps/com.lametric.custommessage

Device mode - manual|auto|schedule|kiosk

Would it be possible to add an action card to set the device mode to manual, auto, schedule or kiosk?

58

Both requests noted!

See v. 1.3.0 for the “change device mode” action.

Here’s a link to install the test-version:

Please test, and report back here if there are issues.

I want to set a custom clock face using an icon ID, but I get an error message “invalid clock face icon. Must be in this format…,” it seems that I have to provide some data-path.

I include the test flow I have made. What is wrong?

Hi @Paul_Scholte

Yes, you must use the correct format, which is either data:image/png:base64,<something> or data:image/gif;base64,<something>.

Example:

data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAgAAAAICAYAAADED76LAAAAOklEQVQYlWNUVFBgwAeYcEncv//gP04FMEmsCmCSiooKjHAFMEF0SRQTsEnCFcAE0SUZGBgYGAl5EwA+6RhuHb9bggAAAABJRU5ErkJggg==
