[Blockly] New Block for enabling and disabling a thing

Open Larsen-Locke opened this issue 9 months ago • 3 comments

The problem

Currently it's not possible to change the enabled-status of a thing within blockly.

With the new blocks introduced in 4.2M3 it's possible to get various information about a thing. On top of that it would be a great feature if it was possible to enable and disable a thing. With this feature all things, even bridges could be disabled and enabled. (It's something that you usually do manually if a thing has a connection problem: You disable and enable it)

Your suggestion

Introduce a new block "set enabled/disabled [thing]" An alternative could be "toggle enabled-status [thing]"
