Shelly Plus 1PM Scripting

[Harry]

Hi, I am using a Shelly Plus 1PM to turn an electric heater on and off.
I have an app that sets when a device is turned on depending on the price of electricity - using the octopus agile half hour time slots.
The app provides an api that says whether the device should be on or not.
Below is a Shelly script that queries the api every minute and turns the device on or off.
It all seems to work fine, but the script quits after a few hours.
Any ideas why it would stop running?

function httpResponse(result, error_code, error) {
  const j = JSON.parse(result.body);
  const s = j.sel;
  if (error_code === 0 && s === true) {  
   Shelly.call("Switch.set", {'id': 0, 'on': true});
    } else {
   Shelly.call("Switch.set", {'id': 0, 'on': false});
    }
}
function timerCode() {
 const url = "https://xxxxxx.uk/is_on?device=ors";
 Shelly.call("HTTP.GET", {url: url}, httpResponse);}

 Timer.set( 60000, true, timerCode);

Hi @Harry, from code perspective you should handle errors at first thing in `httpResponse` function and then do parsing body.

Also you can use `try` / `catch` to handle errors for synchronous code.

Here are some existing script examples for Shelly, from Shelly: https://github.com/ALLTERCO/shelly-script-examples

- good for inspiration
