1. When [You say something that starts with "Say hi to"] then [Put the rest of the text into a variable] and [Say: "Hello" <variable>]
So that, when I say: "OK Homey, say hi to John", Homey will reply with "Hello John". Wouldn't that be cool?
To revisit this, this is possible with the built in logic:
A 'standard' variable can be retreived with {{$variable}}
Is there anything like the 'variable management' screen of Better Logic for standard variables too?
Several Kaku transmitters sometimes generate multiple triggers, it would make a decent workaround if the Better Logic app would consider 4 updates of the same variable in a 5 second window a single update
I did it with using the Better Variables and the countdown app
Variable "kaku cooldown"
Countdown "kaku cooldown"
EDIT made it into images:
Trigger Flow:
Then just make a flow that sets the kaku cooldown back to false after the 3 seconds, this is reuseable with all your kaku flows that you add to the trigger part:
@caseda
For the time being I created a workaround Debouncer within the flow for the Kaku Doorbel:
@caseda
Thanks both, I'll try it all!
your way does work as well, except if the trigger of kaku continuous after the 3 seconds it still wil be triggered. (will not happen much, but could happen.
My way it resets the counter every time the kaku sends a signal within these 3 seconds.
You can't press any kaku button within these 3 seconds (even though you could change it to 1 or 2 seconds), but that only stops those bully kids that try to "rape" your doorbell, +&+
So I guess this flow is needed.
I have tried these URL's:
http://homey-ipadress/api/app/net.i-dev.betterlogic/tv
https://xxx.homey.athom.com/api/manager/settings/app/net.i-dev.betterlogic/tv
Did I miss something? I did create the variable and I can use it in my flows.

Please could you add a way to calculate time?
for example 17:00 minus 1 hour
I have a variable that contains this "2016-04-29T19:04:09+00:00" and I need just the time. Alternatively, can that be done using a JSON body? The HTTP GET uses $.results.time to populate the variable, I couldn't find the syntax that would request (and get) a substring.
Stopping an starting and reinstalling the better logic app did'nt help.
I't not the first time i lost my variables, but normally after a reboot they apear again.
Is this homey or better logic?
This is a bug fixed in the latest version of homey. There where some issues with garbage collection.
