Multiple execution of same command in console but no response to iPhone..

[deepesh-agarwal]

I am using this plugin command ::

def get_temp()

        # Say a random response:
        say @responses[rand(@responses.size)]+@master_name

        Thread.new {

            begin
                output = `/home/pi/RaspberryScripts/loldht`
                #output.scan(/Temp = (\d++.\d++) *C Hum = (\d++.\d++)/) do |temp, hum|
                #   say "Temperature #{temp} Degree Celsius and Humidity #{hum} %"
                #Temp = 25.00 *C Hum = 41.00 %
                #end

                output = output.delete("^0-9.")
                say "Live Temperature in your room is #{output[0,2]} Degree Celsius and Humidity #{output[5,2]} %"
                rescue Exception => e

                say "Sorry, Deepesh I encountered an error: #{e.inspect}"

                ensure

                request_completed

            end

        }

    end 

Intercepted via this regex ::

    listen_for /(room temperature|temperature|live temperature|life temperature)/i do
        get_temp()
    end

Which results in this output at console ::

As you can see the command is getting executed multiple times but no response gets received on phone and all I see is the endless spin.

If I had to guess, I would suspect the problem is with the begin-resuce-ensure-end. First try getting it to work without it, then try replacing ensure with end remove one of the other end statements.

Also, does your script really take that long that you need to start as a new thread?

[deepesh-agarwal]

Thanks, I will look into this. I was using a new thread to execute python code with other matches, and when not using a new thread Siri skipped the "Say" statements on my phone executing the command (the task get executed but no response is sent to phone).

Here is an example from one of my plugins that works, although I'm not calling python.

I have read some posts about necessary tricks to return from python from within ruby. Post a question on stackoverflow if you don't find what you are looking for.
