[kodi] Channel for online/offline state

[Newan]

Right now the Kodi binding does not provide a channel for the online state.
It is possible to provide a online/offline state to check this channel in rules.

Online/Offline status is a feature of a Thing, it must not be modelled as a Channel.

See eclipse-archived/smarthome#1654.

thanks for answer, but the issue is open? Is it implemented?
Is there any documentation or example.

I search for 2 state request:

rule "Kodi event on"
when
  Thing kodiUID changed from ONLINE to OFFLINE
then
  // do something
end

How get the kodiUID?

rule "Kodi event on"
when
  Item seonorXYZ changed 
then
   If (kodiUID.getStatus() == ThingStatus.Online)
end

But i don´t know how to get the "thing" object. Muss i run over all things an compare the ui?

see eclipse-archived/smarthome#3001 (comment), i.e. getThingStatusInfo("kodi:your:thing") should do the trick.
