    Convert condition to If block (and vice versa)

    Frits van Bommel · 0 · Posted

    When editing code you might sometimes find that what was originally a condition on a single action actually needs to apply to multiple actions, or that an If block that used to be bigger now only contains one action.

    As you commented on this suggestion (sorry, I can't find a way to link the comment directly), the solution to the first part is often to use an If block instead. However the conversion can currently be cumbersome to do by hand, especially for complicated conditions. And Tasker is all about automating stuff, right? :)

    I think it'd be nice if

    An easy way to filter arrays

    Frits van Bommel · 0 · Posted

    Currently, if we want to filter an array we need to use %var(#?pattern), then loop over the indices returned and construct a new array. Another suggestion already exists to get rid of that loop by allowing %var(1,5,7) to return an array with just those indices and I agree that'd be a nice improvement. There it is then suggested that we could then use %var(%var(#?pattern)) to filter an array. However, I think for that special case we can do even better.

    We currently already have %var(#>)/%var(>) and %var(#<)/%var(<), where the version with # returns the index and the other the value,

    Triggering with faces of people

    Moor@ · 2 · Last reply by Moor@

    Hi,

    I would like to trigger some tasks using Face ID if possible.

    It may be a wonderful idea to manage smart home applications according to the faces of the people living home. For example, it says their names after checking their face IDs. Or it waits to say the personal notes from another user until it sees the target person 's face.

    Thank you very much in advance,

    Allow Task icons to be set via a variable for dynamic change

    theOG123 · 0 · Posted

    Hi, I've been trying to see if this is possible but just can't see it. Say I wanted to get information from App Info and use the %app_icon() in a custom navbar, currently I can only choose Task icons from icons in a list.

    If I wanted this to be dynamic and based on say, the last app I used, it would help to allow that to be a variable.

    API OpenStreetMap

    TaskerClub · 0 · Posted

    I offer full integration of the OpenStreetMap API in Tasker, since the capabilities of Google Maps are limited. I propose to extract all possible information from the API into variables, such as street names, house numbers, POI names, etc. What do you think of this?

    Make an option for Import Data to permanently restore Tasker configuration

    Abi · 0 · Posted

    This would be especially useful for devices running Tasker which are mainly just automation devices hidden away -- the device automatically backs up its Tasker data which you can edit on your phone by importing the XML, but then you push the XML back to the automation device and it automatically restores it in the same way it would if going into Data -> Restore -> User Local Backup (without the need for AutoInput or anything).

    Something like having the context be "File Restore.xml modified," "Read file," "Import Data."

    License of https://tasker.joaoapps.com/code/TaskerPlugin.java

    c5532327 · 0 · Posted

    Hey,

    I'd like to include the Tasker protocol extension in an app under Eclipse Public License 2.0.

    Since the https://tasker.joaoapps.com/code/TaskerPlugin.java file has no license information included, I doubt it would be legal to modify and re-distribute it.

    Can you add a license (maybe put this file under some free software license) to this file?

    Thanks!

    get Tasker version and device information

    schlimbo · 0 · Posted

    Can you please add global variables for:

    - Installed Tasker version

    - Device Firmware version

    -Date of security patch 

    This information would be very helpful for self created logfiles in Tasker projects.

    I am controlling an insteon hub with HTTP Request, when I test them since tasker works, but when I export it as an application and use it on android 9, I have the error of cleartext http traffic to not permitted. It would be helpful to be able to configure like this:

    Option for cooldown time to trigger last skipped event after cooldown time is over

    Stefan · 0 · Posted

    An option for cooldown time to trigger the last skipped event (skipped during the cooldown time) after the cooldown time is over would be useful.

    E.g. there are many changes of %LIGHT when moving. In a profile reacting on changes to %LIGHT and adding a cooldown time of ten seconds Tasker will probably not trigger the entering of a completely dark area where %LIGHT will not change anymore because it's constantly 0. The above change would allow to use a cooldown time AND to detect the % LIGHT changing to 0.

    Support for Android TV running Oreo (e.g. Sony TVs)

    Ameel · 2 · Last reply by João Dias

    Similar to this previous post: https://tasker.helprace.com/i214-tasker-on-android-tv

    I don't mind sideloading etc, but the main issue is being able to access the full layout of Tasker. Currently the search button and 3-vertical-dots menu at top right corner do not show up on my TV (Sony running android 8). I tested latest released 5.7.2 and 5.8.0 beta 5. 

    Is Tasker somehow compatible with some Android 8 TVs and not others?

    Enlarge project bar

    Adam Lopresto · 0 · Posted

    Would it be possible to make the project bar along the bottom of the main Tasker interface larger (specifically, taller)? I'm finding that with full gesture navigation with the betas for Android Q, swiping sideways along the bottom of the screen switches between recent apps, and scrolling the project bar is really difficult (there are maybe a few pixels at the top of it that I can grab, but it's really tricky). Maybe there's another way to do it that I'm not aware of.

    I use Tasker for almost everything, Tasker in fact is my OS, I keep my settings in Tasker rather than in the OS menus as they will be with me with any device or any Rom I will use.

    The most time consuming for me is to interact with the device and Tasker (Typing complex shell commands and navigate between the tasks and screens.

    I understand this is big, but I would want some way to connect my laptop to Tasker and use Tasker as WebApp (with mouse and hotkeys)
