[solved] RPZ (W) and camera. Missing something

SOLVED

Sorry.

Forgot to set filemode to 1

Sorry folks. I'm stuck with this.

This is the crux of the flow:
The idea is that the picture is taken with the name being determined by the date.
So a picture taken now (Local time: 2018/11/18 08:37:00) would be something like:
20181118-083700.jpg

But it isn't.

I am setting up the variables for the name and sending it to the camera node as documented.

But I am getting this as the filename:

"/home/pi/Pictures/pic_529b13a1-bd03-4ac4-baea-11854bf0ff17.jpg"

I am probably missing an elephant - somewhere.

Someone mind taking a peep at the flow?

The first thing I notice is that in the moment node you have not told it which property to write the time string to. I imagine you want it in msg.payload.

Yes, but that part is done in the CHANGE node.

And what I didn't do was set the filemode value to tell the camera node to accept the file name from the message.

This is the new CHANGE node:

[{"id":"6510828d.aaae54","type":"change","z":"d57de863.41484","name":"","rules":[{"t":"set","p":"filepath","pt":"msg","to":"/home/pi/Pictures/Local_Camera/","tot":"str"},{"t":"set","p":"filename","pt":"msg","to":"payload","tot":"msg"},{"t":"set","p":"filemode","pt":"msg","to":"1","tot":"num"}],"action":"","property":"","from":"","to":"","reg":false,"x":120,"y":260,"wires":[["86adab98.09c0f","ca3dda73.a1df68"]]}]

So what do you think is in msg.payload on the way into the Change node?

Hmm, you appear to be benefiting from a bug in the moment node. You have told it to output to msg but it has written it to msg.payload.

Well, this is what I am seeing.

(Remember I didn't have the "filemode" set to 1 in the CHANGE node before this.

Re: your last post:
I seem to be good at finding bugs.

Um.....

Where is the moment node?

I am getting the time from the Function node:
(code)

//msg.payload = new.Datre().toString();
msg.payload = new Date();
return msg;

What type of node are you feeding that into?

Oops. Ok. Sorry. Got another problem that has just bitten me on the back-side and driving me nuts.

Weirdly though now you have made me look at that node:
I don't remember the moment node having the red boxes around the input and output fields when I originally installed it.

I may not be a good programmer, but I don't leave red boxes blank, as they usually mean ERROR!

Maybe this is because of recent updates?
