I want to ask about how I could add custom code to a piston. Is that possible? Or I might not have to…what I want to do is have my piston check my web-based calendar every day, and if the current day shows as ‘not available’…do stuff at my house with my devices. This can all be done by simply editing a URL string with the correct date parameters, and searching the result for a certain phrase of text. But it requires the use of variables to be created from the current date, and variables to be inserted and expanded into a string (the url). I see that there are options to do variables, but I can’t see very well how to, say, call a webpage by url and put the result into a variable. I would also need to convert the current date into a string, and further convert that string into a format acceptable to the web calendar…can this kind of stuff be done natively in webcore?
