[Marci]

See https://github.com/PatchworkBoy/sky-remote-web

Code: Select all

git clone https://github.com/PatchworkBoy/sky-remote-web.git
cd sky-remote-web
npm install
node sky-remote-web.js

...launch at boot or daemonize via forever / pm2 / systemd (however you like to do such things).

Test by visiting http://domoticzip:27592/ in a browser - populate IP box in top left corner with IP address of your SkyQ box, then use the visual remote to control your Sky box.


For use in Domoticz:
Create dummy switches with 'on' action set to

Code: Select all

http://127.0.0.1:27592/control/?ip=sky.ipa.ddr.ess&command=pause

(replacing sky.ipa.ddr.ess with IP Address of the Skybox you wish to control with that button, and pause with any command from the list below)


Available Commands

• power
• select
• backup
• dismiss
• channelup
• channeldown

Mapping to individual switches rather than selector switches will allow voice integration via various methods (eg: for Siri control, using homebridge + homebridge-edomoticz)
