  • 1.  lua and notes

    Posted Aug 14, 2009 05:58 PM
    Hi,

    I've got a lua script that creates a note and attaches it to an alarm  (using note.create and note.attach) I can't find a way to get it to tick the 'Automaticaly remove this note when no active alarms refer to it' box.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks
    Dean

    My bad, the syntax helper in the NAS script editor will show you that the third parameter will control this flag.

    note.create (sName, sDescription ])

    I will update the NAS tech. brief,

    Thanks,
    Carstein

    Thanks Carstein.
    I thought it had to be in there somewhere as it was showing in the command interface section of the probe documentation and not the Lua extensions section.

    Thanks

    Would you mind posting the script? I'm looking at doing something similar.

     

    Thanks in advance.

    Here is some helpful info:

     

    LUA extensions for notes 

    note.create ( Name, Description ) 
    Creates a note with the provided name and description fields set, and returns the note identification number (NoteId). 

     

    note.append ( Name | NoteId, Description [, Overwrite ] ) 
    Appends the descriptive text to an existing note defined by the name or the id. A new note will be created when no matches are found. Returns status. 

     

    note.delete ( Name | NoteId ) 
    Deletes a note with the provided name or id. Returns status. 

     

    note.find ( Name ) 
    Returns the NoteId of the named note, and the note description as the second return parameter, or nil when nothing matches the provided Name. 

     

    note.attach ( Name | NoteId, NimId *, NimId…+ ) 
    Attaches the note to one or more alarms specified as NimIds.
