An Apple Watch interface can be created visually through the Project Editor or using a Project's UISet (for example, for dynamically build Watch interfaces).

  • label: the button's label
  • action: the button's action
The action parameter specifies the type of action and can have the following values:
  • user: similar to a User Button object, sends a User call to the server
  • device: similar to a Button object, controls a light or automation device
  • url: requests the specified URL
Each type of action uses different parameters as following.
User Parameters
  • name: name passed to the Java callback method and event in EVENTS
  • parameter: parameter passed to the Java callback method and event in EVENTS
Device Parameters
  • address: device data point name
Device Parameters
  • url: the URL to be requested. Its return value will give a different feedback: "ack" (success feedback) or "error" (failure feedback)

UISet Attributes

  • label: to dynamically modify the button's label

Light

The light object displays a "light" icon on the left of the button. It has the same parameters as the "Button" object. If the "action" is "device", Its icon changes to reflect the status of the associated device address.

UISet

  • label: to dynamically modify the button's label
  • state: used to change the icon state if the "action" is not "device". Can be "off", "on" or "unknown".

OnOff

Same as the Light object, but displays an on/off icon.

Shutter

Same as the Light and OnOff objects, but with an additional parameter "mode" for the direction of the shutter. The UISet "state" can have the following values: "up", "down", "offup", "offdown", "unknown".

Slider

Same as the Button object, but sends a value as well.

If action is "device", the slider's value is updated with the corresponding device's state.

If the action is "user", the slider's value is sent as parameter.

If the action is "url", the slider's value will be replaced in the URL where "%value" is found.

E.g. If the url is "http://www.myurl.com/slider?%value" and the slider's value is changed to "77", the following URL is requested: "http://www.myurl.com/slider?77"

UISet

  • label: to dynamically modify the slider's label
  • value: 0-100, modifies the displayed value
