Presence detection through ORBI router

[pipiche]

If you own an ORBI Router (with or without Satellite), here is a small plugin you can use to track MAC@ presence or not.

Hi, I'm not getting this working in my system.

I've installed the requests module.

Code: Select all

pip install requests

Afterwards I've followed the 'Installation' instructions.

I've changed (in plugin.py) the location of the requests module to '/home/pi/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/' as I think it's located there.

I get the following error:

2019-11-28 21:30:21.860 Error: (orbi) 'onStart' failed 'KeyError'.
2019-11-28 21:30:21.860 Error: (orbi) ----> Line 208 in '/home/pi/domoticz/plugins/Orbi-Presence/plugin.py', function onStart
2019-11-28 21:30:21.860 Error: (orbi) ----> Line 78 in '/home/pi/domoticz/plugins/Orbi-Presence/plugin.py', function onStart

Does anyone have a clue what's wrong?

I don't think this related to your path.
The issue here is related to loading the Icon.

Could you check that all files in the folder are readable. Especially ihome.zip

Eventually, could you got into Domoticz -> More Options -> Custom Icons

And remove Anyone Home (The icon looks like a Home).

Then you restart the plugin

Cheers,

Did both and now it works.
Not sure what the error caused, guess the icon.

Thanks!

Be aware that orbi allow only one connection at a time, so either the plugin , or you via web to admin orbi or via the orbi app

Here is the log. It's not working very good at the moment.
My phone is still online, for more than 10 minutes while I'm not connected to wifi. And logged out on orbi on all devices.

From the log it is on , so it does detect the presence. What do you feel is not working

It looked like my phone didn't go 'off' but that took about 5 minutes. Is that normal/adjustable?

[pipiche]

There are 2 aspects :
1- i don’t know how long time orbi needs to detects the device is not present anymore. Probably between 5 to 20’ . This is based on DHCP lease time of up address. And this makes sense

2- the plugin pool on a regular basis the information.

In case you want an instant present or not, I think you need to look for alternatives based on Bluetooth and beacon

For instance you can check by connecting to orbi and check attached devices to see how long it takes.
But it will depend on the time when the up address was given.

Hi pipiche,

If you want to join forces and optimize the Orbi tracker in my iDetect plugin, then you are more than welcome to do so.

I already have a crude implementation based on the url you used in your plugin (thank you for that!).

iDetect started out as a simple poling script for a Asus ssh router, but it is becoming more of a framework that could potentially integrate every kind of tracking we would like.
