ExtraVariablesFile

Plugins & Plugin Development EventWatcher Events & Logs

I have ExtraVariablesFile variable pointing to my cifs share at /DataMine/EventWatcher/
Should Eventwatcher now creat the ExtraVariables.conf file for me or must I create it myself there?

If I have to create it, is it just a txt file named " ExtraVariables.conf"?

I don’t understand this process, sorry.

You need to include the file name in the “ExtraVariablesFile” variable.
This is what I use: “/www/EWextras.conf” without the “”

Yes, you need to create the file and you need to insert the variables you want to Watch manually to this file.

Yes, a txt file named “ExtraVariables.conf” is what you need but the file type extension needs to be .conf instead of .txt.

Here is an example of some entries I have in my .conf file

336.urn:upnp-org:serviceId:Dimming1.LoadLevelStatus
338.urn:upnp-org:serviceId:Dimming1.LoadLevelStatus
339.urn:upnp-org:serviceId:Dimming1.LoadLevelStatus
35.urn:upnp-org:serviceId:Dimming1.LoadLevelStatus
315.urn:upnp-org:serviceId:Dimming1.LoadLevelStatus
46.urn:upnp-org:serviceId:Dimming1.LoadLevelStatus
295.urn:upnp-org:serviceId:Dimming1.LoadLevelStatus
301.urn:upnp-org:serviceId:Dimming1.LoadLevelStatus
311.urn:upnp-org:serviceId:Dimming1.LoadLevelStatus
335.urn:upnp-org:serviceId:Dimming1.LoadLevelStatus
337.urn:upnp-org:serviceId:Dimming1.LoadLevelStatus
362.urn:upnp-org:serviceId:Dimming1.LoadLevelStatus
363.urn:upnp-org:serviceId:Dimming1.LoadLevelStatus
319.urn:upnp-empuk-net:serviceId:SimpleAlarm1.StatusLable

Yes, you have to create it because that is where you define which extra variables you want to log. One per line.
