Python Plugin: Wan IP Checker

Hi there.
I have managed to port emme's script bellow
viewtopic.php?t=14489
to a domoticz python plugin.
Plugin updates a "General,Text" Value with your Wan IP Address. This value can be used later on in order to update any scripts or notify you upon IP change.
I hope you like it.
Find newest version GitHub:
https://github.com/ycahome/WAN-IP-CHECKER.git
Installation instructions:
- Make sure you have Python3 installed!
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install python3
sudo apt-get install python3-dev
Code: Select all
cd plugins
mkdir WAN-IP-CHECKER
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install git
git clone https://github.com/ycahome/WAN-IP-CHECKER.git WAN-IP-CHECKER
cd WAN-IP-CHECKER
sudo chmod +x plugin.py
sudo /etc/init.d/domoticz.sh restart
- Create Plugin Folder "WAN-IP-CHECKER" under "domoticz/plugins" folder
- Save this script as "plugin.py" on "WAN-IP-CHECKER" folder
- Restart domoticz service.
- Add a new entry of this Hardware on your domoticz installation (Setup/Hardware/select and add "Wan Ip Checker")
- NOTE:When userid/pw checking is active, make sure to add 127.0.0.* to the Local Networks field on the Settings of your Domoticz. ( many thanks to manjh for his help)
What am going to see?:
- Plugin will auto-add one Text Counter on your "Utility" Section named "<Your Hardware Name>- WAN IP 1".
F.A.Q
1. if I enable notification, will it send an e-mail? To which mail address?
- If you enable notifications, Domoticz notification settings will be used
2. what does the field "Check My IP URL" mean?
- is the URL that returns your WAN IP
3. Does the plugin send one single notification, or repeating?
- Single notification (one for each notification option set on settings) for every WAN IP change.
4. "Check My IP URL" .What is it used for? Compare to the outside IP address? Or should I fill in a site like WhoAmI?
- You can use the default one or another. Its up to you.

Hi, Nice.... do you need to create a variable? I added it to the plugin folder but can't see it anywhere

if everything goes as designed
, it auto-create a Text Counter on "Utility" Section named "<Your Hardware Name>- WAN IP 1".
Did you added an entry of this specific hardware after Domoticz service restart? (check Installation Instructions on my first post)

Yes, i got it, but from that moment my Domoticz became unresponsive and i could no longer connect to Domoticz. I had to stop the service, delete the plugin.py and start the service again to get acess to domoticz again....
btw this is on Windows

Although this is built on Linux, I don't think that there is anything bound to Linux architecture. Its a simple python script.
Do you have any logs?
Unfortunately I don't have a Windows based domoticz to test it...

Simply GREAT!!!!
it works perfectly!!!!
Just a bit more clarification for the install:
you have to be root (not pi) to enter the plugins directory... so you have to issue a
sudo su
before everything else

I can't tell for sure....
Am suspecting that you should rename your folder to WAN-IP-CHECKER as folders are case sensitive on Linux OS.
Can you try it?

I think it has something to do with the Python, since i had to build it from source after getting errors about Python some weeks ago?

Do you have "python3-dev" installed?

Good question, hold on..
Otherwise, i think i'm going to re-install the rpi because there are just to many (old) files not in use anymore...
** weird, it seems Python 2.7.9 is my main version?

Works Perfectly on my RPi-2B with Latest beta and Raspbian.
You have probably a lack of Python.....

Not working on Windows. Domoticz restarts every 10 seconds. Nothing in log, but thats hard to see if the system is no longer responding.
