Accept a HTTP Post from Shelly H&T Sensor

[jmone]

Newbie Q : I've got a Shelly H&T WiFi sensor that can wake up and send (as a GET Parameter) to a HTTP url the sensor values when it changes (by x amount). That great but I'm not sure how to:
1) Setup Domoticz to receive these to update a virtual sensor value, and
2) The correct string to use in the Shelly H&T to report the Humidity

AIM: I'm going to use this sensor to trigger an event (turn on a Daikin Split AC in Dry Mode) when the Humidity Level is above say 60% and turn off again if it is below 55%. I've ordred the WiFi board for the Daikin but it is not here yet.

Thanks
Nathan

FYI - I tried this string in Shelly H&T in the hope I would see what it was sending:
"http://192.168.1.xx:8080/json.htm?type= ... e&message="

... but all I got in the Domoticz Log was:
"2019-06-07 15:26:42.328 Status: Incoming connection from: 192.168.1.xx"

Did you URL encode the test message? No spaces, brackets etc are allowed so they need encoding. Also no quotes around the message. If you just try with &message=thisisatest you can skip encoding as that will work as-is.

Mmmm. I can get Domotics to receive a Msg from the Shelly, but I don't know what the Syntax is for passing the Humidity Value instead of just text. So far I've tried a few different Syntax but I'm only getting the text not the value.
, eg I put in "http://192.168.1.xx:8080/json.htm?type= ... ="+various test vars, in the Shelly and see in the Log the following is received.

Any Idea what the syntax is for the Shelly?

[philchillbill]

The syntax is not for the Shelly as such, the syntax is about where the info should be sent towards Domoticz. Check out this link about updating sensors via JSON:

https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Domoticz_ ... .2Fsensors

That way, you don't need to go via the log or messaging.

So I created a Dummy Sensor for Temp/Hum, then in Shelly tried the following:

Code: Select all

http://192.168.1.xx:8080/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=29&nvalue=0&svalue=TEMP;HUM;HUM_STAT
http://192.168.1.xx:8080/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=29&svalue=TEMP;HUM;HUM_STAT
http://192.168.1.xx:8080/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=29&svalue=tmp.value;hum.value;HUM_STAT
http://192.168.1.xx:8080/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=29&svalue=tmp;hum;HUM_STAT

I can see that the Domoticz is receiving the connection and passing data to the Dummy Sensor as Last Seen on the Sensor is updated but the data for TEMP and HUM is 0 and is not the actual TEMP/HUM being recorded in the Shelly.

Thanks

Is this Shelly sensor working Domoticz?

[knights]

I would like to have the same functionality : )
Did you come up with a working which you could share ?

I Tried the mariopeters script Shelly Cloud, but this crashes my domoticz everytime

Hi,

did one of you manage to get this working? I'm also struggling to insert the right variable from Shelly. They said it should be $temp and $hum but Domoticz isn't getting the values.

thanks
