Telegram message with blocking - AlexLV - 30.10.2022

Hi,

Boiler status I receive from powertag, updating periodically. I want message to telegram should be sent only once, when status changed. But my simple script not working, could not find where is the problem..

Can you please check where I am wrong..

Code:
require("user.telegram")

local statuss = event.getvalue('42/2/10')----Boiler status

local alarm = event.getvalue('0/0/102') ---alarm status

--log(statuss)

--log (alarm)

if statuss == true then 

if alarm == false then 

     message = 'Бойлер включен' ---message is not working, boiler is on

telegram(message)

grp.write('0/0/102', true)  -- trying to block next alarm

    alarm = true -- t

end

else 

 message = 'Бойлер выключен' --message working, boiler is off

  telegram(message)

    grp.write('0/0/102', false) -- trying to unblock next alarm when statuss is changed

  alarm = false

end

event.getvalue() does not accept any arguments. You need to use grp.getvalue() for all other groups than the event source.
Your script blocks multiple "on" messages but does not block "off" messages. Use this instead:

Code:
require('user.telegram')

key = 'boiler_status'

curr = event.getvalue()

prev = storage.get(key)

if curr ~= prev then

  message = curr and 'boiler on' or 'boiler off'

  telegram(message)

  storage.set(key, curr)

end
