Hi all node red maniacs!! I'm working on a simple function condition. I'm a javascript beginner so please patience jejeje. I have to make several if conditions so far i have. let night = msg.payload let day = msg.payload let home = msg.payload let away = msg.payload if (night === true) { msg…

Sorry maybe i dont get it correctly. At the beginning of the post there is my whole function and the output. That works ok. The complex part that im doing is use more conditions inside the function.

I wrote in the first answer if than else if, so: if(){ some code; } else if (){ some code; }else if (){ some code; } else { some code; } or a switch case. But you don’t need this part: [image] Marty1982: let night = msg.payload let day = msg.payload let home = msg.payload let…

[image] Marty1982: At the beginning of the post there is my whole function and the output. Yes, but what are you feeding into the function node? Instead of a function node, add a debug node, and show us what data you are working with.

This is my node. [{"id":"fbac250c.314aa8","type":"nighttime","z":"3c9968a7.da8038","name":"Day/night","lon":"-58.381557","lat":"-34.603683","start":"sunrise","end":"sunsetStart","x":120,"y":625,"wires":[["b5963aeb.561fe8"],["b5963aeb.561fe8"]]},{"id":"b5963aeb.561fe8","type":"function","z":"3c9968a…

Im feeding the day or night node into the function node.

I think you might have a basic miss understanding of concepts. Lets do this step by step. Are night, day etc the values you receive? Please attach a debug node before! the function node and show us a picture of an msg that you see in the debug tab that is send to the function node. This will help…

This is send before the function. [image]

So just to make clear that I understand this correctly. You want to write a function that combines a check for two things: 1st is it day or night? 2nd is somebody home or not? Both informations come from different sources. If I understood it right my next question is do you want to save this sta…

Right, the thing is like this. First I want to check if is day or night. That will have an output true or false because is boolean definded by the node by default. So, i "transcribed" that for day or night depending the boolean output. The function node (as described in top of the topic) do that co…

Perfect!

I can manage do that with the switch node instead.
