    Debugging script errors

    Hey,

    So I have been trying to install and run a traccar (gps tracking server) script for integration into HS.
    I've had many issues so far, some just plain silly and others frustrating as hell.
    I am now on the final stretch I think, just a few niggles.

    I am getting the following errors when trying to run the script.
    Jun-13 00:36:58 Error 1 Running script C:\Program Files (x86)\HomeSeer HS3\scripts\Traccar.vb :Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
    Jun-13 00:36:58 Traccar Error Connecting to Database traccar: Incorrect TIMESTAMP value: 'NULL'
    Is there a way to increase verbose output do you know?
    I've tried running the script with tenscripts, but other than build errors it does still compile and run but I don't really know how to debug from there.

    Any ideas?

    Traccar.vb

    Code:
    ' Script created by Rutger Bockholts and is provided on https://rutg3r.com for free.
    ' Version 4.6.01 // November 15 2019
    ' Script is tested with Traccar 4.6
    ' The script will run in 4 stages:
    ' 1: Get columns and values data from Traccar table 'positions' and store both in seperate arrays, except the last column "Attributes"
    ' 2: Get the last column "Attributes" and add all the Keys and Values of the KVPair to seperate arrays
    ' 3: Add additional virtual devices to the arrays, to provide seperate data
    ' 4: Get data from all arays and store them in the virtual devices
    ' 5: Will create a recurring event, that runs once a day, to run the "DailyDistance" script. The event has the status enabled

    I'm doing some Traccar integration into HS (toying with the idea of writing a plugin) and from reading that script it appears a little complex as it is reading from the database rather than the API (I would've thought most of this functionality was available from the HTTP API which is much easier to deal with).

    There are a couple of places that error might be caused and it appears that it is an error caused when a time is queried, what I might suggest is a few hs.writelog before/after a couple of the SQL queries and see if you get those statements in the HS log, that will help you narrow down where it is. I'd put £5 on it being an issue around time zone or date formatting being different.

      I'm not sure why Rutg3r decided to use this method of integration but he's much cleverer than I when it comes to this stuff. I did think an easy way may be available but perhaps it's more limiting in some way.

      I was wondering if its possible to push events to homeseer via traccar but I'm not involved enough to look at this stuff.

      A plugin would be cool, it's definately crying out for one.

      I'll try what you suggest and post back.

      thanks.

        So I tried inserting some writelogs at various places, and whether or not this is relevant I don't know.
        It seems I can get a log write-out right before the following but nothing after as it then errors...

        Code:
         myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()
        Dim myAdapterG As New MySqlDataAdapter
        myAdapterG.SelectCommand = myCommand
        Dim myDataG As MySqlDataReader
        myDataG = myCommand.ExecuteReader()
        I don't know why this would cause an error as it's just declaring stuff, so maybe not this problem? But it won't run past this point.

          Is the MySQL server running, is the database instance 'traccar' valid, is the username/password correct?

          Looks like your opening the same database twice (connections 'conn' and 'conn1'). Almost certainly a Bad Idea.

          'myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()' is executing a database query, not 'just declaring stuff'.

            What sort of traccar integration would be in your desires? I'm aware other plugins are out there for it but are multi technology whereas I prefer to have plugins that stick to one thing. I'm keen to not make it too complex as really you won't beat using their UI.

              I've got Rutg3r's script working.... and it works reasonably well. I think anything that doesmt work like certain devices don't update, is down to unsupported parameters with a user's specific tracking device.

              Rutg3r's integration with traccar is pretty useful and he's put a lot of work into that script. For me however, it's too much and I don't need all the clutter such as all the extra devices that get created like rssi, priority, events etc. Clearly they will be of use to some people and you can actually just afaik delete the ones you don't want and they don't come back unless you delete the root device.

              Google maps integration is nice but I don't need it. Here is what I was looking into prior to using Rutg3r's script:

              Having a script running every X seconds to pull data from the traccar database has it's benefits, but the problem with this approach is that the devices in homeseer only get updated each run of the script. Tracking devices generally submit their coordinates and other data every X seconds depending on configuration. So with this current setup we technically have two possible delays before we see the updated device a in homeseer, the latter being uncontrollable due to the way the gps trackers work.

              I was looking at ways of pushing data from traccar into homeseer, rather than fetching it on a schedule. This of course would instantly update the HS devices. Traccar has an open source api afaik and also supports json to some degree, though I'm not sure it will provide the necessary.

              That would be the deal breaker for me, if a HS plugin can't receive instant device updates from traccar then I can't see there would be any benefit over Rutg3r's script.

              Another useful feature Rutg3r uses is built-in geofence for home and work, though I personally don't use this as intended. I prefer, like you, to keep all of that within traccar including geofences, and the best method imo is to have a virtual device in homeseer that is updated whenever those geofences are breached.

              I'm currently trying to make Rutg3r's script work for me in that respect. I'm not interested in the two home and work geofences per se, I simply want to create events that fire when I enter an approx distance to home, the final one being to turn on my outside lights.

              There's likely more but that's all I can think right now.

              Like I said already, Rutg3r's script is almost perfect for my needs, but a few things could definately be improved. I'm not sure if the limitations here are actually the traccar software.

              On a related note, I'm more than happy to demo any betas you have and I'm also happy to pay for a plugin if it has my requirements.

              cheers

                Thanks for the steer, I had pretty much the same idea - my needs in HS are simple (perhaps too simple!) and primarily is where my devices are and if they are/are not in geofences (and immediate notification of in/out). If I need anything else then I would use the UI for Traccar.

                The immediate notification should be possible with the websocket API and this is what I intended to use, I will drop you a message if I proceed.

                  Nice one. I think there will be plenty of interest.
                  Trackers are cheap, accurate and a good way linking in vehicles to HS.
                  Hope you can go ahead.

                    Not sure from reading this if you got what you needed, but two things I have found very helpful debugging scripts:
                    1. Using tenscripting (which you said you had tried) and running the script within the development environmebnt with breakpoints set.
                    2. Surround anything suspect with a try .. catch .. end try:
                    try
                    all your code
                    catch ex as exception
                    hs.writelog("ERROR", "Exception: " & ex.tostring)
                    end try

                    That should tell you the nature of the error and the line on which it occurred.

                    Note that if the exception is thrown in a function without a try .. catch...end try, it will simply give you the line number of hte call to hte function. You need a try inside the generating the error.
