H.O.O.P. (Hope) - Homey Object Oriented Programming

Nice too see!
You can even easily add dim steps, or other actions with a certain no. of pushes.
I realized f.i. my table lights have 3 favorite dim values: 20%, 50% and 100%
So an extra step is simple to add:
IF “PushButtonPushesCount” = 2
THEN (Set light 20%)

IF “PushButtonPushesCount” = 3
THEN (Set light 50%)

IF “PushButtonPushesCount” = 4
THEN (Set light 100%)

I like it!

I made this 3-step-dim-and-off function earlier on with standard flows, and it took me 7 flows. Yes… seven!

Hey Peter,

I see you use two cards for If Then:
IF (all cards until THEN are true); Operator = AndAlso &&
and then this card:
THEN

But this card does the same and has the THEN operator included:
IF the next X cards are true THEN execute the X cards after that; Operator = AndAlso &&

To me the first way is somewhat clearer to read, because there is a THEN operator card visible, which isn’t the case with the 2nd case. I think in hindsight it’s a bit more difficult to ‘read’ the flow steps.
Is it matter of ‘taste’, what you like? Or an other idea behind it?

Well, it indeed is kind off a taste thing yeah.
For complex statements, i would advise to use the “normal” IF, THEN, ELSE and END IF cards.

The thought after IF-THEN and IF-ELSE-THEN (and i am creating a ELSE-THEN) cards, is “single line” statements.

IF-THEN statements | Homey

When you fill a string/text with a lott of possible values, it usually means a lott of single-line-statements, like this:
IF vaccuumbin is Full THEN str = str + “Bin is full!”

If you program block-statements, you need 5 cards for this.

  • IF
  • condition
  • THEN
  • execution
  • END IF

This just felt wrong to me, because i would be using this a lott (programming single-line IF-THEN statements.

With the IF-THEN, you just need 3 cards:

  • IF the next 1 card is true, execute the next 1 card
  • condition
  • execution
    image

And when i made it, i thought: why would i fix it to The next card and the Card after that?
So i bould it so you can set the the amount If/Then cards yourself :slight_smile: Its just more flexable that way.

In big string-collection flows, these IF-THEN and IF-ELSE-THEN cards are a real space-saver and therefor performance-saver (on the Homey mobile App anyway).

But for any other use then simple IF-THEN (string) collection flows, i would advise to use the IF and THEN cards, as, indeed, this is more clearly readable and less error prone.

Do you mean by that: when switch X is set to on, or when knob Y was pressed? Because I couldn’t find any switch or button to trigger things yet :wink:
Now I’m studying your flows for Kongedam. I kind of like those kind of puzzles.,

No, debounce in this case would be that the function/flow can be activated multiple times within a curtain period, but will only execute once within that time : Eather at the start of the debounce-period to prevent multiple executions, or at the end of the debounce-period waiting for extra input.

But for a good debouncefunctionality, i first need HOOP triggers that can override/duplicate any trigger so you can have any trigger start HOOP flos directly.
Then debouncing will be a build in card :slight_smile:

Hey @Adrian_Rockall ,@Peter_Kawa and @Kongedam ,

I am almost done with creating Trigger Cards, which will alowe for triggers to be overwriten and thuse directly trigger HOOP flows:
This flow will trigger when the Countdown Test is empty. No need for an extra starting flow when this goes live :slight_smile:

Added Trigger Cards - Use any triggercard in your Homey as H.O.O.P. trigger, so you only need one flow!
For example Volume based on time (Day/night) - one flow

I am trying to make a flow but having a hard time to get it done. Maybe someone can point me in the right direction.

I have 14 text variables called Radiodag1, Radiodag2 etc etc, they contain my favorite radiostations. The content is like “http://192.168.178.2:5005/woonkamer/favorite/538 Dance Radio”
or like: “http://192.168.178.2:5005/woonkamer/favorite/538 Ibiza Radio”

I am trying to make a flow but having a hard time to get it done. Maybe someone can point me in the right direction.

In these variables a few times there are duplicates, which is on purpose. But what i want is that a duplicate radiostation can not occur two days in a row. So Radiodag1 with Dance Radio may not be also on Radiodag2. What i want is when this happens the content will be copied into variable Radiodag3 and the content of Radiodag3 will be copied i to Radiodag2. After that the flow has to continue if there are more duplicates radiostations after another. What also may occur is in case duplicate radiostations are after another the script which has run to fill these variables will run again and then will check if there are duplicates after another.

Is this possible to achieve with H.O.O.P? I hope so…:beers:

Hey Marcel,

Just a quick question (if so, i will tell/make an example later / write you a function to place in HOOP):
Could you use an Array (list/collection) filled with all your favorite stations, and then, every day, pick a random but exclude the previousdayplayed , and save it in a variable “previousdayplayed”.

Am i correct in understanding that you want a list/station to be played every day, but not twice in a row?
Or do you want it programmed like that 14 days in advance?
(This is a big difference in how to handle it, option 1 is very simple with HOOP!, option 2 would require a bit more time to make a javascript you could use in HOOP functions)

If i recall it well you have a script for this, Marcel?
I think that would come in handy for Arie.

Great yo guys want to help. Thx in advance.

I want it to be programmed 14 days in advance. I have a script, but have to admit it was made with a lot of help of the community, google , copy/paste and some reading in a javascript book.

This is my script at this moment;

// Script by Marcel for randomly playing radiostations and playlists from Spotify with your Sonos Device
// With the use of a Synology Server and the Sonos Docker Api 
// Using Homey's apps Better Logic and HTTP request


// Add your Server's Ipadres and PortnumerPrefix voor radiostations en playlists
const IpAdres = '192.168.178.2'; //Add your local ip adres of your server e.g '190.178.178.3'
const Portnumber = '5005';//Add your portnumber of your server for the Sonos api

// Do not adjust 
const RadioPrefix = 'http:%2F%2F' + IpAdres + ':' + Portnumber + '%2Fwoonkamer%2Ffavorite%2F';
const PlayListPrefix = 'http:%2F%2F'+ IpAdres + ':'+ Portnumber + '%2Fwoonkamer%2Fspotify%2Fnow%2Fspotify:user:spotify:playlist:';

//Add your station at //Radiostations. In your Sonos app, from Sonos(not Homey) you
//need to add your radiostation as favorite. Use this exact name in this script
//I have added three playlists. Therefore the variable names Radio12, Radio13 en Radio14 must be
//stay the same and not been altered. 

//To add some random playlist I have made 17 playlist which you can adjust. Just search the ID 
//of your playlist in your Spotify App(not Homey) and paste this ID at //PlayList between 
//the quotes

// Add 14 string variables in Better Logic, called RadioDay1, RadioDay2.....Radioday3, three extra
//string variables called PlayListDay1, PlayListDay2 and PlayListDay3, and three string variables 
// called PlayListName1, PlayListName2 and PlayListName 3. The variable names are case sensitive.

In HOOP in the settings you can add javascript functions and use that in the Flow Variables cards.

I log in to the Athom devolper setting and copy/paste the code into the app. When I go back to the app and press “configure app” I get an error :


I want to install the Homey Elevator but I get also an error :

I’ve read the above and tried again but no luck? Anyone can help?

Install 1.2.3 when its in the store and use the settings, the issue for iOS has been resolved.

Okay thanks, I will install it when it’s in the store

v 1.2.3. is in the store now.

I’ve installed version 1.2.3 and still the same error when I tried to install the Homey Elevator device. The error when I go to the configure app page is gone. Thanks for that.

Indeed, the Elevator device will give an error on some phones (iOS) and there is nothing i can do about that. Thats why i have the backup settings-elevation which again works correctly as backup for some phone’s.

Hi,

Is someone willing to point me in the right direction for my use case?

I have a Aqara Opple light switch with 2 buttons. What I want is a flow with 2 “when” conditions. If button 1 or button 2 is pressed, turn on the light.
More like a “If-Or-Then” statement.

Now I have 2 flows. One for each button.

Is this possible with this app?

Regards,

Dennis

Hey Dennis,

Not yet! I have been working on a if-if-if structure, and it is looking promising.
I allready have build the trigger system, just need to make the conditional-trigger-cards.

I just need time to finish it.
