.rendezvous

A Rendez-vous triggers an action from another object or from Lua code. Typical usage is to synchronize automation within Majordome without having to use intermediate topic.

Directives

name=

Unique name to identify the rendez-vous. If not set, uses the filename.

name=toto

quiet

Remove some trace. This option is useful to avoid logging of very noisy topics.

disabled

This topic starts as disabled : incoming messages are ignored.

Example

File test.rendezvous

# name of the topic
# Here, commented out, so we take the filename, "test"
# name=

# Don't log incomming messages on this topic
#quiet

# disable this topic
#disabled
