Hi there everyone,
I am using the standard python_script integration from HA and I have an automation set up to monitor MQTT topic from openzwave for certain events. The automation got triggered fine and fired off the python script. However the call stopped here, my script did not get run. I think I am missing the important information as how to call the script service from python.
Here are the python codes:
event = data.get('event')
label = data.get('label')
index = data.get('index')
node_id = int(data.get('node_id'))
# we only care about index == 10, the end of the swipe 'parameter'
# and for safety we also only look at valueChanged
if (index == '10') and event == 'valueChanged':
value = int(data.get('value', '0'))
# unpack byte 2 (button id)
scene_id = value >> 24 & 0xff
# unpack byte 3 (direction)
scene_value_id = value >> 16 & 0xff
# offset by 10 to avoid colissions
scene_value_id = scene_value_id + 10
scene_value_label = 'Swipe Down'
if scene_value_id == 11:
scene_value_label = 'Swipe Up'
if '7' in node_id:
node = 'bedroom'
if '4' in node_id:
node = 'livingroom'
if 'livingroom' in node:
if '1' in scene_id:
light_id = 'light.living_room_lights'
if '2' in scene_id:
light_id = 'light.dining_lights'
if '3' in scene_id:
light_id = 'light.corner_lights'
if '4' in scene_id:
light_id = 'light.stairs_lights'
elif 'bedroom' in node:
if '1' in scene_id:
light_id = 'light.bedroom_lights'
swipe_action = scene_value_label
hass.services.call('script', 'turn_on', {
'entity_id': 'script.dimmer',
'light_id': light_id,
'swipe_action': swipe_action,
}, False)
I would like to know how to propertly call the script.dimmer from python. light_id and swipe_action are variables for the script.
The automation:
- alias: Wallmote Swipe Handling
trigger:
platform: mqtt
topic: "OpenZWave/1/node/+/instance/1/commandclass/112/value/+/"
action:
- service: python_script.wallmote_handler
data_template:
node_id: "{{trigger.payload_json['Node']}}"
event: "{{trigger.payload_json['Event']}}"
value: "{{trigger.payload_json['Value']}}"
index: "{{trigger.payload_json['Index']}}"
The script:
dimmer:
sequence:
- service: light.turn_on
data_template:
entity_id: '{{ light_id }}'
brightness: >-
{% set domain, name = light_id.split('.') %}
{% set current = states[domain][name].attributes.brightness | int %}
{% set step = states('input_number.light_step') | int %}
{% set action = swipe_action %}
{% if action == 'Swipe Up' %}
{% set next = current + step | int %}
{% elif action == 'Swipe Down' %}
{% set next = current - step | int %}
{% endif %}
{% if next > states('input_number.light_maximum') | int %}
{% set next = states('input_number.light_maximum') | int %}
{% elif next < states('input_number.light_minimum') | int %}
{% set next = states('input_number.light_minimum') | int %}
{% endif %}
{{ next }}
If I tried to run script.dimmer with the variables light_id and swipe_action from the frontend UI, it works. So somehow the call to script.dimmer is either not correct or maybe I am missing something here.
I verified the codes separately and the variables are correctly parsed and passed to the script as you can see in the log:

I got the python code from here.
Hopefully someone knows more about this and can help me with this. Thank you so much!

The solution to the python script is here.
I will report back to the original coder and update this post accordingly.
