Re: eDomoticz Homebridge-Plugin
I don't know what I'm doing wrong... I'm getting frustrated.
Every attempt to install node.js results in errors, now I'm getting segmentation fault when doing node -v
I have a RPi B+ with clean install of Domoticz SD card image, Rasbian Jessie
Edit:
Thanks to this post: viewtopic.php?f=36&t=10272&start=340#p89318 I've managed to get it working again!
pffff... what a trouble to find the right info.
Tomorrow I will proceed to get it working with the script for starting after boot

Re: eDomoticz Homebridge-Plugin
Am I right in thinking the shim still can't access domoticz scenes ? I have a dummy switches for some scenes as I remember it couldn't access them when I used it last time

Re: eDomoticz Homebridge-Plugin
Hi!
I have just installed Domoticz (with mochad), Homebridge and the Domoticz plugin.
While X10 lights are working good, I have some problems with sensor movements (Marmitek MS13).
In Domoticz it is managed correctly and it changes status when movement is detected but this status changes are not intercepted by homebridge.
The movement sensor is correctly exposed by homebridge (I can see in in Eve and Homekit) but it never chages is status.
Any idea?
Thank you
Chris

Re: eDomoticz Homebridge-Plugin
@deejc - correct, virtual switches are still the method.
@chrispazz - changes aren't pushed, they're pulled. You'd need to open Eve and pull down / scroll up&down to trigger a refresh from Domoticz. Only other solution would be a looped timer that retrieves status from Domoticz every few seconds, but this would end up rather resource intensive, and give you a sluggish response to commands as you'd have to wait for a gap before commands would be received and processed.

Re: eDomoticz Homebridge-Plugin
Thank you Marci.
I was asking because for X10 system a triggered movement detected from a MS13 acts like a switch sending on power line a ON command on the configured address.....
In this case sensor movements (as alerts or trigger) are pretty useless if exposed on Homekit....
Am I wrong?
Thanks

Nope, you're correct... motion sensors etc end up useless. Actions & triggers based on motion need to be defined and handled in Domoticz, rather than within HomeKit...
You can use pushbullett or an MQTT client to receive realtime notifications of motion outside of HomeKit... S'about the only method at the moment, until I can write routines to separate out motion / occupation sensors so they can be polled on a timer.

Re: eDomoticz Homebridge-Plugin
Amazing plugin, thank you.
I have added support for RGB lamps:
https://github.com/PatchworkBoy/homebri ... cz/pull/27
When this gets approved one could change the colour though homekit too.

Re: eDomoticz Homebridge-Plugin
That's weird, my lamp has got the same subtype. "RGBW".
Can you actually change the colour of your lights through Domoticz? The update for the bridge uses the same method.
Try cleaning your homebridge cache (~/.homebridge/persist) to remove all 'cached' data, but prepare to re-pair your homekit bridge though.
EDIT: ^ Read the post above

Yes I can. I use https://github.com/dotsam/homebridge-milight in parallel and it is working good.Can you actually change the colour of your lights through Domoticz?
I`m not ready to reconfig because of my wife use it every day. (I`m afraid to change somethingTry cleaning your homebridge cache (~/.homebridge/persist)

I hope this will be enough. Device name is "Living room main"

That's not the JSON output from Domoticz... that's the Homebridge run-log.

Re: eDomoticz Homebridge-Plugin
Retrieve status of specific device...
You can get the status of a specific device with:
http://domoticzip:port/json.htm?type=devices&rid=IDX
IDX = id of your device (This number can be found in the devices tab in the column "IDX")

Re: eDomoticz Homebridge-Plugin
Hi Marci,
I just performed the steps you described in the start of this post:
I skipped forever install as I ruined my pi image once before, so I don't want it running always just yet.
mkdir gave an error, something like folder already exist.
I continued with editing the config.json, that looked ok as it was (no roomID, no accessories, default IP, etc).
When I type
I see this:
Also, the EVE app sees nothing. It keeps on searching for accessories.
Any suggestions?
I just performed the steps you described in the start of this post:
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgradeCode: Select all
sudo apt-get install libavahi-compat-libdnssd-devCode: Select all
sudo npm install -g homebridge --unsafe-permCode: Select all
sudo npm install -g homebridge-edomoticzCode: Select all
mkdir ~/.homebridge && pico ~/.homebridge/config.jsonI continued with editing the config.json, that looked ok as it was (no roomID, no accessories, default IP, etc).
All did not go well, I assumeIf all went well you should now see a device entitled “Homebridge” to pair with from your chosen homekit app, which contains all your accessories! Done!
When I type
Code: Select all
pi@raspberrypi:~$ homebridgeCode: Select all
pi@raspberrypi:~$ homebridge
