homebridge-edomoticz Plugin

possible · Post by **possible** » Wednesday 12 October 2016 14:56

Hi,

I tried to install the following plugin for my sony TV:

npm install -g homebridge-sonybraviatv

I want to turn my Sony Android TV on with this plugin. i added the following configuration to my config.json:

Code: Select all

{
    "bridge": {
        "name": "Homebridge",
        "username": "CC:21:3E:E4:DE:33",
        "port": 51826,
        "pin": "031-45-154"
    },
    "description": "Configuration file for (e)xtended Domoticz platform.",
    "platforms": [
        {
            "platform": "eDomoticz",
            "name": "eDomoticz",
            "server": "127.0.0.1",
            "port": "8080",
            "ssl": 0,
            "roomid": 0,
            "mqttenable": 0,
            "mqttserver": "",
            "mqttport": "1883",
            "mqttauth": 0,
            "mqttuser": "",
            "mqttpass": ""
        }
    ],

    "accessories": [
        {
            "accessory": "SonyBraviaTV",
            "name": "Sony KDL",
            "ipaddress": "192.168.0.150",
            "presharedkey": "YOUR PRESHARED KEY HERE"
        }
    ],

But when I restart homebridge, homebridge fails:

Code: Select all

Did I made a typo ?

Great.
Will try to install it on my rpi1

Edit: Changed my mind... Just bought a RPI3

Hi!

wget http://www.domoticz.com/releases/r ... armv7l.tgz

Seems to be broken... No response from host... Any alternatives?

Run it manually and it should hopefully present more useful errors... but note, if using a separate plugin for the TV then that TV shouldn't be listed in Domoticz.

Code: Select all

DEBUG=* homebridge -D

S'just the download link for domoticz. Go to downloads section, right click and copy link, paste in place of original... BUT... like it says for option 3 in the first post...

It’s assumed that you have a vague idea of what you’re doing with Linux and will be able to resolve any issues yourself.

If you're getting stuck at that step, start again using the domoticz images instead.

What do you mean with run it manually? The TV is not listed in domoticz.. I only added the plugin and added the accessory to the config file.

Do I have to remove the domoticz part in the configuration file?

It looks like you're missing the last accolade "}" in your config json.

Try:

Code: Select all

Thanks!

That did the trick! But if I want to add multiple accessoires, What code do I have to use ?

I probably made a mistake again:

Code: Select all

 "accessories": [
        {
            "accessory": "SonyBraviaTV",
            "name": "Televisie",
            "ipaddress": "192.168.0.150",
            "presharedkey": "wereld213"

        }

     ],
            "accessory": "Xbox",
            "name": "Xbox",
            "ipAddress": "192.168.0.171",
            "liveId": "KEY"
        }
   ]
   }

Have just added an experimental feature to the MQTT branch, namely changing colours through RGB instead of Hue & Saturation. Hue and Saturation never worked the way it should, so I'm hoping RGB will.

Will try this out tonight.

For reference: https://github.com/domoticz/domoticz/issues/909

Top man, any further ideas/development on the 'cache' idea. Or are you waiting for MQTT to be completely finished?

Been reading thru the source of hap-nodejs - there doesn't seem to be a cache that's usable in this way... unless I've missed something??

TheRamon wrote: @marci, sometime later we should probably cache the on/off state (and other variables) of the devices in the eDomoticzAccessory. Then, update the state with the status JSON (ideally later on in the process through tapping MQTT messages). Then, whenever Siri or HomeKit asks the status of the device we IMMEDIATELY return the cached value without asking Domoticz first.

Something TheRamon mentioned last week.

Yep, I saw... what I was getting at is that there doesn't appear to be an existing method already in homebridge / hap-nodejs that we can use for this, so would need our own mechanism.
