On/Off action php

[rednas]

Hello,

Is it possible to fire a php file in the domoticz scripts folder with an on or off action when a switch is pushed?
This action works:

Code: Select all

script:///home/pi/domoticz/scripts/file.sh

And what I want to do is something like:

Code: Select all

script:///home/pi/domoticz/scripts/file.php

Is this possible?

Thanks in advance!

You can do so much more with php!
Have a look at my signature.
I launch php with a lua script, that's about 100 times faster than the on/off action.

Create a new sh file with code:

Code: Select all

#!/usr/bin/php
<?php
//here your php code
?>

And in action paste

Code: Select all

script:///home/pi/domoticz/scripts/file.sh

I was going to post my experience under General but this seems to be a better location.

My inventory:

• X10 PR511 Dual Floodlight Motion Detector
  several X10 switches and outlets, CM15a
  several Z-Wave switches/outlets

I wanted the configuration: Someone/us/ups/fedex pulls into the driveway, motion detected, (aside pr511s tend to burn out due to load, so I unwired the relay in the unit and wired the lights through a X10 WS467). The 511 sends out x10 d1,2,3,4 on/off, d4 is the switch to the floods - driveway lites up. Then a Mochad script detects D4-On and sends "echo 'pl D5 on' | nc localhost 1099" and the kitchen door light comes on then D6 front door. Then the local power company talked me into whole house protection - which messed up my X10. Some, nothing, others dead, some on not off. Solution, zwave, Domoticz, etc.

Current config: Raspberry Pi B+, Raspberrian (x2) (1 at garage w camera, cm15a. 1 in greenhouse with Domoticz and GH control).

A dom scene 'DriveAlarm':

• On: script://drive.php On
  Off: script://drive.php Off
  Activation = X10-D4 on

Code: Select all

#!/usr/bin/php
<?php

function srss() {
        $sunrise = date_sunrise(time(), SUNFUNCS_RET_DOUBLE, 39, -104, 90, -7);
        $sunset  = date_sunset(time(),  SUNFUNCS_RET_DOUBLE, 39, -104, 90, -7);
        $now = date("H") + date("i") / 60 + date("s") / 3600;

        if ($sunrise < $sunset)
                if (($now > $sunrise) && ($now < $sunset)) return 1;
                else return 0;
        else
                if (($now > $sunrise) || ($now < $sunset)) return 1;
                else return 0;
}

function OnOff ($idx, $OO)
{
        if ( srss () == 0 )
        {

          $URL = "sg53:8080/json.htm?type=command&param=switchlight&idx=$idx&switchcmd=$OO";
          $ch = curl_init();
          curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $URL);
          curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
          $output = curl_exec($ch);
          curl_close($ch);
        }
}

#### main () ###
        $OO = $argv[1];

        OnOff (4, $OO);  //front door
        OnOff (5, $OO);  //kitchen door

My orig script had:
shell_exec(sprintf('bash /home/cal/bin/Drivealarm > /dev/null 2>&1 &'));
and Drivealarm contained:
curl -s -i -m 5 -H "Accept: application/json" "http://sg53:8080/json.htm?type=command& ... itchcmd=On"

Note: on != On & off != Off case sensitive

During the day the flood will always come on but not the 2 doors. As for a doorbell we have three 4 legged doorbells.

Just a few notes....

$sunrise will always be less than $sunset so there is no need to test for this.

if ($now < $sunrise || $now > $sunset)
is all you need to get nighttime status (because just like the the first test - once it rolls over midnight, then $sunrise will be the time of the new day - it's always dark whenever $now < $sunrise or $now > $sunset)

Code: Select all

#!/usr/bin/php
<?php

function srss() {
        $now = time();
        $sunriset = date_sunrise($now, SUNFUNCS_RET_DOUBLE, 39, -104, 90, -7);
        $sunsett  = date_sunset($now,  SUNFUNCS_RET_DOUBLE, 39, -104, 90, -7);
        $t = explode(":",$sunriset);
        $sunrise = mktime($t[0],$t[1]);
        $t = explode(":",$sunsett);
        $sunset = mktime($t[0],$t[1]);

        if ($now > $sunrise && $now < $sunset) { return 1; }
        else { return 0; }
}

function OnOff ($idx, $OO)
{
        if (!srss())
        {

          $URL = "sg53:8080/json.htm?type=command&param=switchlight&idx=$idx&switchcmd=$OO";
          $ch = curl_init();
          curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $URL);
          curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
          $output = curl_exec($ch);
          curl_close($ch);
        }
}

#### main () ###
        if (!isset($argv[1])) { exit; }
        $OO = $argv[1];

        OnOff (4, $OO);  //front door
        OnOff (5, $OO);  //kitchen door

Converting the response of sunrise and sunset date funcs to unix timestamps makes them easier to work with - if you need to do anything more complicated in the future. As you can see to achieve this I just split the string using the ":" as the delimiter. As for the check to see what srss returns - if you are looking for it returning 1 (or true) then "if (srss()) { " is preferred - and for checking if it is false or 0 - then "if (!srss()) { "

Also I assigned time() to $now at the start of the function so that time() isn't called multiple times when calculating sunrise and sunset.

I added a quick check to make sure that $argv[1] actually contains something - otherwise since there is no check anywhere as to what $OO actually contains - you could be calling the script with no argument which will still attempt to connect to Domoticz but switchcmd will be empty.

Just some hints for the future

And thoughts for the further future -
I've replaced all this with MQTT - so instead of CURL connecting to the JSON domoticz endpoint - I would now just fire off 2 MQTT messages which Domoticz will receive and process.

{"command":"switchlight","idx":4,"switchcmd":"{$OO}"},{"command":"switchlight","idx":5,"switchcmd":"{$OO}"} published to "domoticz/in" would do the job - and while I could use phpMQTT to publish the messages - I tend to opt for executing mosquitto_pub.

Code: Select all

$t = "/usr/bin/mosquitto_pub -h $MQTT_BROKER -t \"{$MQTT_TOPIC}\" -u \"{$MQTT_USER}\" -P \"{$MQTT_PWD}\" -m \"{\\\"command\\\":\\\"switchlight\\\",\\\"idx\\\":{$idx},\\\"switchcmd\\\":\\\"{$OO}\\\"}\";
exec($t,$out);

Have a look at http://php.net/manual/en/function.date-sunrise.php
You can directly receive sunrise in timestamp:

Code: Select all

function srss() {
        $now = time();
        $sunriset = date_sunrise($now, SUNFUNCS_RET_TIMESTAMP, 39, -104, 90, -7);
        $sunset  = date_sunset($now,  SUNFUNCS_RET_TIMESTAMP, 39, -104, 90, -7);
        if ($now > $sunrise && $now < $sunset) { return 1; }
        else { return 0; }
}
