Node-Red Node Types for Pimatic connectivity.

Overview

Available nodes types are:

• Rule Action calls a pimatic rule action. The action expression may contain variables to include items of the input message object, for example dim light-1 to ${ payload }. Note, it is only possible to call a single action.
• Device Action calls a pimatic device action. Optionally, a parameter name and value can be provided to be passed along with the invocation.
• Get Variable gets the value of the specified pimatic variable and sends it to the output channel when the value has changed or when some input has been received.
• Set Variable sets the received msg.payload or a given value as the new value for the configured pimatic variable.
• Controller is a supporting node type not shown in the palette. It manages the web socket connection to a pimatic server. As part of the configuration for instances of the aforementioned node types it is possible to select or create an controller. Thus, it is possible to interact with multiple pimatic servers within a flow.
