I realize that Twine doesn't contain a clock internally, but it appears that the rules are processed on the SuperMechanical servers which would be able to take into account the time the rule was triggered. There would need to be a way for users to enter their Twine's local time zone into their accounts, but once this is done, time based rules should be pretty straight forward I would think.

Thanks for your consideration of this request.

There still seems to be a rather short maximum POST variable length. I'm trying to use an android service called "notifymyandroid.com" and the minimum variable length necessary to fire off a message (including API key, event, status and description) is 91 characters. But, in 91 characters, that is an event, status and description using 1 character each.

From what I can tell, your variable limitation is 99 characters.

Here is an example minimum POST data:

apikey=A99da857s40f632d37s17ae623ddadb7c221aac7351bd4a9&application=t&description=x&event=o

Also. a bug: When you save a POST request, then return to the webpage, it reverts back to a GET request (although the post data remains hidden in the POST data field).

The rule works great and is fully functional when loaded on the device. When I go back into the rule through the UI it always defaults back to [GET] and I have to use the drop down to get [POST] again. Is this the designed behavior or should the UI be selecting that last-know-load from the device?

Thanks in advance,

Brian

]]> Rechargeable Battery for TWINE2 http://www.minervakestner.com/discussion/224/rechargeable-battery-for-twine2 Sat, 15 Dec 2012 01:35:15 +0000 Feature requests Paul Freeman 224@/discussions
Whether to have the battery permanent or changeable is the question though. Permanent is simpler, cheaper and could be more powerful for its size, but it has the difficulty that you will need to charge it where it's located which could be awkward for some people. However changeable allows a user to go and swap the battery at an instant when it's getting low.

I might have a look at testing the idea anyway, a simple charge circuit would be easy to incorporate into it from the USB socket, and as long as TWINE doesn't get upset at having 4.2v at its battery terminals, it should work just fine.

[Edit] Just found out recently that most of the chips are rated up to 3.6v, so there may be issues going up to 4.2 at full charge. ]]> Would like a GET REST API http://www.minervakestner.com/discussion/414/would-like-a-get-rest-api Mon, 01 Apr 2013 13:37:35 +0000 Feature requests Bill Roth 414@/discussions ]]> ability to keep the Time http://www.minervakestner.com/discussion/203/ability-to-keep-the-time Tue, 11 Dec 2012 12:21:45 +0000 Feature requests Ryan Brittner 203@/discussions
Is it possible to do that? the only way to have this work right now is to trip the condition after say 1 hour of it being in the upright position....in the summer this will get annoying as my garage door is open for hours on end during the day. anyways I just think this would be a cool idea. ]]> Twitter account for downtime http://www.minervakestner.com/discussion/389/twitter-account-for-downtime Mon, 25 Feb 2013 05:32:33 +0000 Feature requests Will Luke 389@/discussions Force twine to constantly update while powered? http://www.minervakestner.com/discussion/162/force-twine-to-constantly-update-while-powered Tue, 04 Dec 2012 21:15:01 +0000 Feature requests Mike J 162@/discussions Text messages from same number http://www.minervakestner.com/discussion/351/text-messages-from-same-number Thu, 31 Jan 2013 23:07:49 +0000 Feature requests Rod Hall 351@/discussions Please Allow Variable Replacement in Messages http://www.minervakestner.com/discussion/269/please-allow-variable-replacement-in-messages Wed, 26 Dec 2012 19:43:38 +0000 Feature requests Ben Magro 269@/discussions
I suggest [temperature] and [orientation] will translate into the device values.

I'd also like to get more presison out of my thermometer. Potential this the place where you add this. ]]> Allow to add downtime and led off http://www.minervakestner.com/discussion/368/allow-to-add-downtime-and-led-off Tue, 12 Feb 2013 11:41:29 +0000 Feature requests Sorin Stefan Nicolin 368@/discussions

There are several situations where the Twine doesn't need to listen to events at specific times. Allowing us to enter a downtime (or more) would also greatly enhance the battery life. Also the "light pollution" in my home at night isn't funny. I have so many devices that are in standby and keep the led lit. It would be nice to be able to completely turn off Twine's led. Mine flashes from time to time (and I am not even sure why). Everything else seems to work fine so it is not the "3x flashing because of wireless errors".

Thanks.

But when twine's server communicates outbound, you cannot differentiate which device it came from.

Likewise .com?t=[temperature]&o=[orientation] only sends the temp, not orientation.

This can be overcome by sending 1 var and parsing it server side, but that is not standard.

.com?vars=[temperature].[orientation].[etc]
