If a connection from the command line isn't possible, then the plugin won't be able to connect to ssh either.
And what is the problem u think?

@drwurn

Possible causes:
no ssh server running on the router
not on port 22
unnecessary port forwarding getting in the way
firewall
etc
etc

As i mentioned in my earlier post this kind of info -for your specific router- can best be found using google. If you really want to get into home automation using self build and maintained servers and open source software (a beta version even) you must be prepared to get your hands dirty. It's a fun and addictive hobby once you build up knowledge by experimenting en reading up.

Seems to work great for iPhone's!

Maybe a nice feature request, my wife always turns her phone on airplane mode when she's sleeping. So i have added a sleeping button state in the script which keeps tracks if we're sleeping (manual action when we are going to bed). If sleeping, device is not going offline. Added the following code if you're interested putting it in:

Code: Select all

....
		#Select or create icons for devices 
		sleepingicon="idetect-sleeping"
		
		if sleepingicon not in Images: Domoticz.Image('isleeping.zip').Create()
		sleepingiconid=Images[sleepingicon].ID

		#Create "Sleeping" device
		if 254 not in Devices:
			Domoticz.Device(Name="Sleeping", DeviceID="#Sleeping", Unit=254, TypeName="Switch", Used=1, Image=sleepingiconid).Create()
			Domoticz.Log("Device created for sleeping state")
...
		for dev in Devices:
			if dev == 1:
				continue
			#Check if devices are still in use
			Domoticz.Debug("monitoring device: " + Devices[dev].Name)
			if Devices[dev].DeviceID in self.monitormacs: #prep for use
				Domoticz.Debug(Devices[dev].Name + " is stil in use")
				self.devid2domid.update({Devices[dev].DeviceID:dev})
			else: #delete device
				if dev != 1 and dev != 255 and dev !=254:
					if self.deleteobsolete:
						Domoticz.Log("deleting device unit: " + str(dev) + " named: " + Devices[dev].Name)
						deletecandidates.append(dev)
					else:
						Devices[dev].Update(nValue=0, sValue="Off", TimedOut=1)
.....
				for friendlyid, mac in self.monitormacs.items():
					if mac in found:
						homecount += 1
						self.updatestatus(self.devid2domid[friendlyid], True)
						if friendlyid in self.timelastseen:
							self.timelastseen.pop(friendlyid, None)
					else:
						if Devices[254].nValue==1:
							Domoticz.Debug("Sleeping, no need to put deivce offline")
						else:
							if friendlyid in self.timelastseen:
								if not datetime.now() - self.timelastseen[friendlyid] > timedelta(seconds=self.graceoffline):
									Domoticz.Debug("Check if realy offline: " + str(friendlyid))
								else:
									Domoticz.Debug("Considered absent: " + str(friendlyid))
									self.updatestatus(self.devid2domid[friendlyid], False)
									gonecount += 1
							else:
								self.timelastseen[friendlyid] = datetime.now()
								Domoticz.Debug("Seems to have went offline: " + str(friendlyid))
......
	def onCommand(self, Unit, Command, Level, Hue):
		#only allow the override switch to be operated and only if overrides are enabled
		if Unit == 255:
			if str(Command)=='On' and self.overrideallow:
				self.updatestatus(Unit, True)
				self.updatestatus(1, True)
				if self.overridefor:
					self.overridestart=datetime.now()
			if str(Command)=='Off':
				self.updatestatus(Unit, False)
				self.overridestart=None
		if Unit == 254:
			if str(Command)=='On':
				self.updatestatus(Unit, True)
			if str(Command)=='Off':
				self.updatestatus(Unit, False)
		return

Hi Sjaakios,

If i read your additions correctly you are suggesting to show the specific device as 'present', whilst it is in fact offline(?) I do appreciate your suggestion and especially the fact that you supply the code. However i prefer the switches to show the real state of the individual devices. Manually overriding the state of individual devices kind of defeats the purpose of the plugin. The override switch can be used to the prevent Domoticz from thinking there is nobody home when you have turned off the phone or are in the garden (out of reach) etc.

If you automate things based on the fact that anyone is home or everyone is out, then you could use the override option. Manually or programmatically. E.g. Put a connected pressure sensor under the bed to confirm someone is home even if the phone's are offline ;)

You might want to check the presence log for a few days to see if it is consistently around 8 minutes. If so, then arp indeed looks like a usable (fall back) option for certain routers.
On Asus with Merlin its even more easy: viewtopic.php?f=61&t=15531&hilit=phone+detection

That’s how i started a couple of years ago. The script running on my (asus) router. Although mine was a little more elaborate. It would remember the last state and only update domoticz if a status changed (and verify the domoticz state every once in a while). Otherwise it would flood the device’s logs with on, on, on, on every few seconds.
I can share my old script if you like that method better(?) I don’t consider it easier though. Quite the opposite. You’ll have to install scripts on the router, create devices manually and manage the idx/script relationship. The plugin manages the creation and state of devices dynamically. Just add or change a new phone on the settings page and your done. Things like configurable grace period and the override switch also have their benefits.

Hi Prutsium,

Couldn't find the most recent version, but this was one of the first versions. In later versions i monitored individual devices. All eventually leading up to writing this plugin.

THE CODE BELOW IS NOT RELATED TO THE PLUGIN DISCUSSED IN THIS THREAD

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh

presencedetectloop () {
	trap "rm -f /var/run/presencedetectord.pid;exit" SIGTERM SIGINT
	trap "" SIGHUP
	LOOPCOUNT=0
	echo Start loop
	PHONES='xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx|yy:yy:yy:yy:yy:yy'
	NOTHERECOUNT=0

	while true; do
		echo loops $LOOPCOUNT
		if [ "$LOOPCOUNT" -eq "0" ]; then
			echo Haal huidige status op bij Domoticz
		        local DOMSTS=$(wget -qO- "http://192.168.0.2:8080/json.htm?type=devices&rid=64" | grep \"Status\"\ \:\ \"On\" )
		        if [ -n "$DOMSTS" ]; then
           			LASTSTATUS=On
        		else
           			LASTSTATUS=Off
        		fi
			LOOPCOUNT=50
		fi
	        INHOUSE=$(wl -i eth1 assoclist)
	        INHOUSE=$INHOUSE\ $(wl -i eth2 assoclist)
	        TEST=$(echo "$INHOUSE" | grep -E "$PHONES")
	        if [ -n "$TEST" ]; then
	                STATUS=On
	        else
	                STATUS=Off

	                echo Wget resultaat: $RESULT 
	                RESULT=$(echo $RESULT | grep OK)
	                if [ -n "$RESULT" ]; then
	                        LASTSTATUS=$STATUS
	                fi
	        fi
		LOOPCOUNT=$(( LOOPCOUNT-1 ))
		echo vorige: $LASTSTATUS huidige: $STATUS test was: $TEST
	        sleep 10

             exit

Might be worth to consider the Python one from this thread.
What would be main advantages? I assume:
- No hassle in router so more independent from router
- Devices added via Domoticz instead of within router
- ???

Indeed. No hassle, and device management like every other type of hardware in Domoticz. Replaced your phone? Just change the mac on the configuration page and you are done. You even keep the history as long as you use the same name. Have a houseguest for a few weeks? Add the name and the phone's mac address on the configuration page and remove it when they leave. It is also easier to make it more intelligent, like the override button i added. Last but not least: if you replace your router you might have to get ssh key based authentication up and running again, but the plugin won't require any change or configuration. It will keep monitoring the same mac addresses and controlling the same Domoticz switches. Since the plugin detects the usable commands on the router it should work on a wide variety of routers. Not the (simple) ones without ssh obviously ;)

There's no upside without a downside. Getting ssh working can be a challenge for some. Especially key based. Thats why i added a username/password option which i would not prefer myself. If you set the router to log ssh connections the log will get flooded by connections from the plugin. That's not a big deal, but can be annoying. I have not seen any negative impact on the network, router or domoticz performance, but there will be a bit more traffic and both domoticz and the router run a little more code. I think that's all negligible (comparing a grain of sand to a pebble.... in the dessert ;) ).

@devros

You can now force the plugin to use brctl (or arp if brctl is unavailable). Just add #forcegeneric behind the routers address (eg: 192.168.0.1#forcegeneric). That seems to be the safest field to combine some settings since a hostname or ip can never contain special characters and it won't break existing configurations.

brctl is now also the fall back when wl, iwinfo etc are not available (even before it tries arp).

Let's see how it holds up when testing longer than a few hours ;)

Thanks for suggesting brctl. It's looking good so far :D

great that was fast, updatet plugin added #forcegeneric
but it looks that plugin still use wlanconfig (witch isnt working on my machine)
wlanconfig is on ubitiqui, but for some reason not working

Code: Select all

2018-06-20 15:35:04.775 (presence) Returncode ssh command: 0
maybe we should ask pyton plugin developer for few extra switches slots :D

That's strange. Did you put the '#forcegeneric' behind the wifi router ip address field (see example)? In the instructions it could also be interpreted as the mac address list, but that's not the field i meant (will updated the instructions to make that a bit clearer).

Only other reason i can think of is a failed update of plugin.py.

Parsing of the new setting is tested and should work on any system. The script should not even try or know about the wlanconfig command during initialization. If '#forcegeneric' is in the correct field i will add some debugging code to the plugin.

There's probably a reason for limiting the number of parameter slots in the framework, but a more flexible approach in which you can just name your own parameters would be nice 8-)

Ok you convinced me ..... switched to the Python plugin and all works good.
Switched the rules and scenes to the new setup and all good.

Minor thing .... i use an Asus with Merlin so the SSH (with password) works good and get the info.
Only thing is i use a second router as accespoint so means the client would come in for the asus over LAN.
Does your script also monitor LAN connections or only the WL ones?

Ok .... while typing figured out #forcegeneric does the trick :)

:D
I would be interested to hear how it behaves after a couple of days. Especially if you get any unwanted 'absent' events.
I had a few when i set the grace period to something shorter than the poll interval. In that case a device is considered absent on the second poll (10 second interval in my setup). So it seems that if the connection occasionally drops the brctl aging time does prevent the device from disappearing from the list 100% of the time. Setting a higher grace period should handle that (i'm now testing 30 seconds).

Also looked into submitting a request for more parameters, but i see this is not just a python plugin limitation. The parameter fields are the fields of a hardware record in the Domoticz database and will be used all over Domoticz. Mwah.... i'll stick with the ugly work around than ;)

Yes, that is the router password.

I don't know the experia box, but why would you forward port 22? Port forwarding is normaly used to allow access to a host inside you local network (not being the router) from clients on the internet.

First please try to get ssh acces to the router from your domoticz machine's Linux command line to see if you can get that working. You can google for ssh access to experia box.

If -after that- the plugin fails please enable debug mode, retry and share the log. There's not much to tell from the basic logs.
Well I've bought myself a new router, the experiabox was crappy anyway.
I am a bit further but not there yet.

At the moment I have ssh access to my router

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ ssh [email protected]

Can I use special characters for my router password? Like @?

Re: Python plugin: Presence detection from wireless router

Hi drwurn,

Good choice. That's a great router.

I noticed that you login as admin@.... on the command line, but you seem to have configured Admin (capital A) for the plugin. I'm not sure if the Asus username is case sensitive.

Returncode 5 for sshpass does mean "Invalid/incorrect password". The easiest test would be to change the password to something whithout '@' or for testing even without any special character.

The plugin should be able to use special characters in a password, and i did test some, but not all. I wouldn't use '@' in a password anyway, because it has a special meaning in user credentials (username@host) and some programs might not handle it well. Even if it is theoretically allowed, my printer would for example not connect to wifi when my wifi password had a '@'.

You could also try to 'escape' the character (put a \ in front of it) in the configuration of the plugin. pass@word -> pass\@word

EDIT: Just tried on my asus router and the username IS case sensitive.

Changed the Admin to admin and removed @ in my password.

This is the new log

That probably means the initialization of the script went wrong and therefor never got to setting the self.beats variable. However, that part is missing from your log fragment, so i can't tell what's happening. Can you share the debug log from where the plugin starts? Just go to the hardware page select the WiFi Presence 'hardware' and click the 'update' button to restart the plugin.
