@TimAlls, Loaded your new report generator only had a few minutes this morning to peruse… noticed that the file name was report generator with no number should it be #3, also when reviewing my IP cameras, I noticed that port number bleed into the end of the IP address usually its separated by a colon. Would be nice to have column headers within each tab that identifies the contents (I know being picky)

Thats not picky…thats the stuff I need to hear!
Headers are easy…I will add that. The Exe file should be numbered…I will change that as well.
Version 4 is coming with more breakdowns and a special section for the DAD data…
More to come!

Nice report generator, thanks! It puts everything pretty much into one area to see.

Is is possible to have it show more data on the screen, and/or print out the results? Right now, I have too many devices to show on one screen, so doing a print from the program doesn’t seem to show everything.

Thanks.

I will be adding in a report print feature in my next version. My first print code was rough …I am working on a nice one…more to come.
Did the program miss any of your devices? I am still watching for bugs.

Look like it got all of them.

I did notice that the last data point in every report had a {] after it.

I was in a hurry!
That will be coming out.

Here are the results for my test system (V2@1.1.1245).

… and for my live system (V1@1.1.1186).

I suppose ‘Categories’ shouldn’t be empty and there are some strange scenes (notification scenes?).

You might find air4vera (http://forum.micasaverde.com/index.php?topic=1927.0) interesting. I don’t know if air4vera is compatible with current firmwares.

Categories shouldn’t be empty, that must be a bug!
Explain the notification scene…what do you mean?

The Air4Vera looks interesting, that was back in 2009…was the project abandoned?

Thanks for testing out my code…The tables are not sorted, but I just finished code that sorts the devices by number and adds a printout feature.

Notification ‘scenes’:

Interesting…
I can create a filter if there is something unique about them in the table…take a look.
I would like to create the bug on my machine, can you tell me how…what kind of notification creates a global scene?

what kind of notification creates a global scene?

Standard MiOS notifications from the ‘Notification’ tab?

Standard MiOS notifications from the 'Notification' tab?
I thought you were doing something exotic...I had no idea it did this for any notification! I created a test notification and as you said....there it was.... [s]This is an easy one to filter out....they have missing fields that normal scenes have so I will use that to delete them.[/s] incorrect. Thanks for the info. Tim

It might be useful to list those zombie scenes, because they clutter the GUI of the Smartphone plugin - and there is no easy way to identify zombie scenes that aren’t attached to devices anymore.

17

I will separate them into there own table
You are right… The idea is to report everything that is of value…
So i will make it available

After looking closer the only easy way to separate them is by using the “room 0” property. The bad news is that scenes that are unassigned are given a room 0 as well. So instructions will have to be given to assign your scenes to a room or they will fall in the room zero table. I think this is still a good option as long as I show both tables under the scenes tab.
Thoughts?

I’m not quite sure, but isn’t [tt]“notification_only”[/tt] a discriminator for notification scenes?

I'm not quite sure, but isn't "notification_only" a discriminator for notification scenes?
I wish it was that simple!....the name is given when you setup the notification......look at my attachment, the last scene was created by me turning on a notification and naming it "test". It is identical in every way to a normal scene. The scene before it "room zero" is a new scene created with no room assignment.....notice that it also is in room "0". Based on that I am still of the opinion that the best approach is to have a special table for room "0". It should be rare to have no room assignment for a scene so this seems to be the best option. MCV....is there a better file for me to parse? This is very confusing that these phantom scenes are included in the response....what is the purpose? Am I missing something? Regards Tim

Doesn’t the JSON for your notification scene ‘test’ contain the attribute ‘notification_only’? Are there ‘normal’ scenes that contain the JSON attribute ‘notification_only’?

IMHO, MCV should think about shifting notification scenes to room -1 … or add a Luup extension for identifying notification scenes.
