Feature requests

Jürgen Jürgenson 2 years ago in bOS Server updated by ComfortClick Support 2 weeks ago 17

I thought I'd create a new feature request thread that consolidates known feature requests into one topic. Please feel free to add your own requests here.

Here are some updates I've been waiting for:

  1. Improved search options - for user logs and general devices. Some logs have filter/search options, but most of them don't. If we need to debug user logs, it can be challenging to find specific entries, especially in a large apartment building with 180+ apartments.
  2. The ability to disable/enable drivers from themes/programs.
  3. The option to insert links into the bOS web browser/camera jpeg links directly from a program.
  4. The option to disable the bOS internal chat or limit chat access to admins only.
  5. The ability to export data to Excel, particularly metering values and other relevant information for building managers
  6. Better graphs for analog logs - zooming and pinpointing values. 

    Forum feature - make it so the user/topic creator is able to edit its posts - it lets you edit for only a short time period after posting.

Run bOS functions with Microsoft Power Automate

Ricardo Pinto | visiontech pt 2 years ago in Devices / Http updated 2 years ago 1

Hello everyone,

There a bunch of times, where I'm sitting at the office in my workstation, and I need to turn on the office table light.

I could:

  1. Move my ass and reach to the office entrance, and push the KNX button
  2. Pick up the phone, open the bOS app and navigate into the office room to turn on the light
  3. Open the bOS Windows app and do exactly the same

But honestly I was looking for a quicker way to turn on/off the office light while I'm at the computer.

So I opened Microsoft Power Automate, and created two flows to work with bOS RPC API:

  • One flow to turn ON the light; And a shortcut to fire it up (CTRL+SHIFT+L)
  • One flow to turn OFF the light; And a shortcut to fire it up (CTRL+SHIFT+D)

And that's it! Now I can quickly turn on/off the office table light while I'm working, without having to open the bOS apps, by using the bOS RPC API and Microsoft Power Automate.

Lazy asses, you can thank me later :D

Best regards

Ricardo Pinto

    Weather - Todays Temperature Value

    Nathan Meinck 2 years ago in bOS Server 0

    Hi I'm using the weather control to display today's temperature and the weeks forecast on the main dashboard.

    I use the text to voice to provide some basic information about current temperature outside and the temperature inside when the morning mode is initiated.

    I'd like to also provide today's forecast maximum, but the values aren't available to be referenced, although the graphic control displays them.

    Does anyone know if I can get the forecast temperature value for the current day?

    Thanks

    RGB Color Picker - proposed improvements

    Artur S 2 years ago in bOS Configurator / Devices updated by ComfortClick Support 2 years ago 1

    Hello,

    I have one proposition to improve the color picker addon/function. Now bOS allows us to use four separate values for RGBW channels. Additionally we have no enough possibilities to convert it to different kind of values, required by the other devices/systems. For example - KNX uses only RGB, Yeelight RGB in consolidated decimal format...

    I believe that for Comfortclick Team is it very easy and simple to add additional values, to use it alternatively to separate channels. My proposition:

    What we have now:

    R - decimal 0-255 or 0-100

    G - decimal 0-255 or 0-100

    B - decimal 0-255 or 0-100

    W - decimal 0-255 or 0-100

    What is needed:

    R - HEX 00-FF

    G - HEX 00-FF

    B - HEX 00-FF

    W - HEX 00-FF

    RGB - decimal (R*65536+G*256+B) 0-16777215

    RGB - hex 0x00-0xFFFFFF

    Do anybody need something else? What do you think about this?

    Best Regards,

    Artur

    Philips Hue API v2 Events (Server-Side Events)

    Ricardo Pinto | visiontech pt 2 years ago in Devices / HUE updated 2 years ago 8

    Hello everyone,


    First of all, hope you all had a very nice Christmas, with all the beloved ones.


    I'm using some Philips HUE sensors, and I was actually using some of them to turn KNX lights on.


    The problem, is that we need to constantly pool the API, which is time and resource consuming for the HUE hub and Comfortclick.


    Philips HUE updated the API to the v2, and they have some interesting features, like the events, which allows to keep a constant connection to a data stream, and get realtime updates without the need to constantly pool the HUB.


    https://developers.meethue.com/develop/hue-api-v2/migration-guide-to-the-new-hue-api/#Event%20Stream (Login needed to see the API docs)


    Side note:


    I have to trick the HUB about the sensor. The sensor needs to be active, and for that at least one HUE light has to be linked. But on my case I don't want to turn on any HUE light, but rather a KNX light. For that, I link the sensor to a random HUE light, and set the actions to do nothing when detecting movement (so I can just extract the true motion from the json).


    Back to the topic:


    So I've tested the curl command, and I really get the realtime updates, and it looks awesome.


    Problem: I can see this realtime updates on the Windows console, by using the curl command, as stated on their documentation:


    curl --insecure -N -H 'hue-application-key: ' -H 'Accept: text/event-stream' https:///eventstream/clip/v2

    But, I would like to do this on ComfortClick. I've tested several options, but none of them worked.


    Anyone can eventually enlighten me, if it's doable?

    Panel Locked Pin

    Pavlos Laskas 2 years ago updated by Ricardo Pinto | visiontech pt 2 years ago 11

    Hello,

    All version are the latest, I tried it with Android and Windows Client. I also tried it in a different server. The result is the same

    Weather data no longer provided

    Andrew Watson 3 years ago in bOS Server updated 3 years ago 2

    I have a Jigsaw server. The weather data is no longer being provided - all data is zero. This server has been operating correctly for a number of years and the weather data was displayed yesterday. No config changes have been made. The Jigsaw has been restarted. The DNS is correctly resolved by 8.8.8.8 and nslookup from the SSH shell returns the correct IP addresses for www.comfortclick.com and the weather data source, The location code is correct and I have re-checked this. It would appear that the Comfort Click bridge server / api is returning all zeroes. The behaviour is the same on my Windows one user test server.

    Can you please investigate and resolve?


    Thanks

    Andy
