The button switch node is used after a remote node. It redirects the message to it's own seperate output by the button_type property of the message payload.
The are currently the following button_type values supported:
- pressed
- hold
- released
- double (Only the SONOFF touch button supports this type right now)
To use the button switch, you have to enable the outputs you need. You also can define a custom msg.payload for each button_type. You can define the following types:
- string
- number
- boolean
- json
In some cases, you may want to send multiple messages while a button is held down. If that is the case, you can enable it after you enabled the output for hold. The released output has not to be enabled for this to work.
To not end up in an endless loop, you have to specify a
maximum amount of messages! If your amount is 0 or less, it will not produce any output!
