1) Give a description of the problem
I need help with the logic for creating a routine for my roomba. I have the roomda integration with ifttt working and a bunch of other automations written so I know what I am doing generally but this one has been kicking my butt.
2) What is the expected behaviour?
PROLOGUE-----
Once a day at a set time
Check the status of a virtual switch in Smartthings
IF on do the thing
IF off do nothing
THE THING:
PART 1-----
Turn on specific lights, tell roomba to run
(This above I can do no problem)
PART 2-----
THEN when Roomba is finished, turn off the lights
3) What is happening/not happening?
I am having trouble with figuring out how to wait until the roomba is done and then kick off the 2nd part. I can track the status of the roomba in several ways, that’s not an issue. It’s the ‘wait until’ part that’s killing me. I failed at a ‘while loop’ doing this. I would paste what I tried below but…
**4) Post a Green Snapshot of the piston!
I nuked what I had. I was mad.
5) Attach logs after turning logging level to Full
I nuked what I had. I was mad.
Looking for advice on HOW to do this. Point me in the right direction if you can pls.
Sorry if this isn’t enough info. I can try it again maybe but as I said…
I nuked what I had. I was mad.
