Short - Long press - Joep - 09.02.2023
Here's a simple script that calculate the time difference between 1 (true) and 0 (false) of a 1 bit object.
I have extended it with some examples on how to use it to calculate the ON time of an object and as a working hour timer.
Code:
long = 10 --set long press in seconds
value = event.getvalue()
object = grp.find(event.dst)
if value then
if not storage.get('start') then
storage.set('start', object.updatetime)
end
else
start = storage.get('start')
if start then
diff = os.difftime(object.updatetime, start)
end
storage.delete('start')
end
if diff then
if diff >= long then
--long press time in seconds
log('long press: '..diff..' seconds')
else
--short press time in seconds
log('short press: '..diff..' seconds')
end
--time the object was ON in seconds
log('object was ON for: '..diff..' seconds')
hour = math.floor((diff / 3600)+ 0.5)
if not storage.get('counter') then
counter = hour
storage.set('counter', counter)
else
counter = storage.get('counter')
counter = counter + hour
storage.set('counter', counter)
end
--total time the object was ON in hours
log('hour counter: '..counter..' hours')
end
