Could you get around not using Twisted with that new aiocoap implementation option?

Cool regardless!

Yes, I've checked it out, and considered making the COAP-adaptor using the aiocoap, but decided to stick with the plain pytradfri-module for now, since there are quite a lot of hoops to jump through to get aiocoap working at the moment.

As to get rid of the need for the adaptor, Dnpwwo has clearly stated that plugins doesn't support spinning off threads or using asynchronous calls. The adaptor takes care of the asynchronous communication with the gateway, which is needed to support notifications of state-changes.

I think it's possible to create a module that controls lights without depending on a external service, but not one that allows for observing state changes (which I think will be even more important down the way, in order to support the motion sensor etc). Until (if ever) plugins support coap+dtls as a native protocol, I fail to see how to support the plugin-system's methods for communication (onConnect, onMessage etc) without some kind of external service that asynchronously observe states and then sends the message about changes to the plugin. I might be completely wrong on that account, naturally...

Could you use these new Python3 event scripts for Domoticz's Python plugin system to observe state changes?

Checkout => https://github.com/domoticz/domoticz/pull/1571

Like if the plugin could 'subscribe' to specific state events which could be triggered if a state is changed? I understand dnpwwo refer to that new feature as "remote-tracking" which was just added 2-weeks ago.

It's certainly possible to use the python-event-scripts to do some kind of state change observation, but since it then needs to be run as a time-script, which only gets executes once every minute, I fell that the latency will be to long to actually be useful, especially for observing and acting on sensors. One could also use the plugin heartbeat to poll for changes, but that will then run synchronously in the main thread, and if for some reason the gateway doesn't respond, the whole plugin-system (and I'm pretty sure the rest of domoticz) will hang.

I don't think the plugin-system features any kind of remote state tracking, and again, if the plugin is to observe the IKEA-gateway directly, it need to "speak coap", which it at the moment doesn't. I plan to run the idea of implementing COAP+dtls as a protocol by Dnpwoo, but at the moment I think all effort is targeted at ironing out the last bugs after updating event-scripts to use pyhton3 and consolidating the two python subsystems...

For what it's worth, I've been toying with the idea of having the plugins itself launch the adaptor, but that will run against the "no spinning off threads"-requirement... And as always, I might seriously be barking up the wrong tree...

What about making it a standalone proxy/script that communicates with Domoticz over MQTT like ie EasyESP does?

Domoticz allready have MQTT support..

Might be worth loooking into, as long as an external script/service/proxy is needed, the communication protocol is more or less a matter of choice. I've just taken a quick look at this, is it possible to create a switch using a MQTT-message?

FYI; sounds here by discussion in their pull request #34 as if aiocoap is no longer experimental:

https://github.com/ggravlingen/pytradfri/pull/34

Perhaps is it worth revisiting an aiocoap implementation later?

FYI; BEN HARDILL (a.k.a. hardillb) already made a MQTT Bridge for IKEA TRÅDFRI Light Gateway as a proof-of-concept:

https://www.hardill.me.uk/wordpress/201 ... tt-bridge/

Open source code here (written in Java):

https://github.com/hardillb/TRADFRI2MQTT

I however feel that a such bridge implemnetation is off-topic here because it is not a standalone plugin for Domoticz.

Hedda wrote:Perhaps is it worth revisiting an aiocoap implementation later?

Sure, I plan on using aiocoap as soon as it's stable, and will take a look at the latest commit. But I fail to see how this will remove the need for using some kind of adaptor/external process, as long as plugins doesn't support async. calls...

FYI; https://github.com/ggravlingen/pytradfri/pull/34 have now been merged into pytradfri master

Hi!

I recently started looking into Tradfri and ran into Moroen's plugin. Seems to work, but a newer version of pytradfri broke it. I did a quick fix for this and this seems to be working again; the plugin recognized my lamps, added devices, and I can dim and switch them.

I just send a pull request soon to moroen/IKEA-Tradfri-plugin for anyone interested. Seems Moroen was already preparing this, but maybe this saves some time https://github.com/moroen/IKEA-Tradfri-plugin/pull/2

During the initial installation, I did run into an issue with twisted. As I am running a pretty bare Arch Linux installation, I prefer pacman (or pacaur) to install as much as possible. Installing the python-twisted package does not however result in an executable /usr/local/bin/twistd, but in /usr/bin/twistd3. This needs a change in the service file. Also, the default pid file for twisted seems to be problematic, and I wanted to not run as root. All this resulted in the following service file, which seems to do the trick for me:

@Edwin,

Thanks! I'll look at the pull-request and merge the changes as soon as I'm back at my own machine...

Hi all,

I have started with small TRADFRI setup combined with Domiticz. My setup is working with one problem.
I cant get ikea-tradfri.service running as a Service, running the python file from bash works fine.

I ran into the problem that twistd is installed in /usr/bin/ and not in /usr/local/bin/ so I changed the service file.

Now the service starts (use root as user/group) but it does not open port 1234, so domotics cant connect.....

Any toughts?

From the top of my head, have you tried running the service as a non-root user?

Hm, it looks like the error might in twisted itself, the error is triggered when tradfri.tac tries to import from twisted...

You might try to import twisted manually from interactive python, and see what happens:

$ python3
>>> from twisted.internet import protocol, task, reactor, endpoints

Or just try to install twisted again?
