Controling Xiaomi Mi Robot with Domoticz

He there,

i managed to control my Xiaomi Mi Robot Vacuum with Domoticz, without catching UDP-packages or something like this. Lets look at it:

Steps:

1. Get the token of your mi robot with the MiToolkit :

https://github.com/ultrara1n/MiToolkit/releases

Sorry, its a german page, but Google-Translator is your friend ;). Your phone has to be in devmode and usb-debugging is activated. Connect your phone via usb to your pc.

2. Install "mirobo" (https://github.com/rytilahti/python-mirobo) on your domoticz-server. i´ve used this tutorial to manage this: http://blog.gurskiy.com/?p=62

This is a russian page, but with google translator, its is easy to handle.

After installing it, you should be able to control your robot with:

"sudo mirobo --ip [yourrobotiphere] --token [yourrobottokenhere] start"

3. Create a virtual switch in domoticz (On/Off).

4. Check the state with a device-based luascript and trigger "mirobo"-application like this:

Code: Select all

commandArray = {}
for deviceName,deviceValue in pairs(devicechanged) do
    print ("Device based event fired on '"..deviceName.."', value '"..tostring(deviceValue).."'");
    if (deviceName=='[nameofyourvirtualswitch]' ) then
        if tostring(deviceValue) == "On" then
            os.execute("sudo mirobo --ip [yourrobotiphere] --token [yourrobottokenhere]  start")
        elseif tostring(deviceValue) == "Off" then
            os.execute("sudo mirobo --ip [yourrobotiphere] --token [yourrobottokenhere]  home")
        end
    end
end

return commandArray
Thats all!
With controlicz i´m now able to call "Alexa, turn the vacuum on!", and my Xiamo Mi Robot will start going to work ;).

Just notice, that this is only an basic configuration. "Mirobo" is much more powerfull, like read the state of the xiaomi, manage dnd-mode, setting fanspeed and so on...

edit: i´ve added a icon for the xiaomi

The same script for dzVents

Code: Select all

return {

	active = true,
	on = {

			-- девайсы которые слушаем
			'Mi Robot'
		},
	},	
	logging = {
        level = domoticz.LOG_ERROR
    },
	execute = function(domoticz, device)	    
		local command = 'mirobo --ip 192.168.000.00 --token 66664b79426a788f49397734736f3934 '
		os.execute(command..string.lower(device.levelName))			
	end
}
And a script to check the current state of the robot

    },
	execute = function(domoticz)    
		local command = 'mirobo --ip ip_пылика --token токен_пылика'
		local miRobotState = domoticz.devices('MiRobot State')		
		local f = io.popen(command)
		local line = f:read("*l")
		local state = string.gsub(line, "State: ", "")
		miRobotState.updateText(state)
		f:close()
	end
}

thanks for this advice.

I´vbuild the control and info-scripts by myself in lua.

My Xiaomi is called "Bumbee", dont wonder. The Switch "Staubsauger"(Germ. vacuum) is just a workarround for use with alexa.
"Bumbee" and "Bumbee Fanspeed" control the vacuum.
I´ve build a script to poll the status-information every minute and refresh the state of those 2 switches and the battery capacity.

Would you mind sharing the script to poll the status information and the lua scripts you have. Would be greatly appreciated

Creator of MiToolkit here, currently integrating multi-language so you dont have to bother with German :D
Should be ready within the next week.

Here is my script to poll infos from the robot.

Maybe there is some otherhead you will not need( like sending a message, when the mirobot finished his sheduled run), but take a look at it:

My Mirobot is called Bumbee ;)

Code: Select all

function mysplit(inputstr, sep)
        if sep == nil then
                sep = "%s"
        end
        local t={} ; i=1
        for str in string.gmatch(inputstr, "([^"..sep.."]+)") do
                t[i] = str
                i = i + 1
        end
        return t
end


commandArray = {}

hour = os.date("%H") 


if(tonumber(hour) > 7 and tonumber(hour) < 22) then
    
    local handle = io.popen("sudo mirobo --ip XXXXXXX --token XXXXXXXX")
    local result = handle:read("*a")
    handle:close()

    print("Result:"..result)
    
    local t = mysplit(result,"\n")
    

    --Status
    if(t[1] ~= nil) then
        local status = string.gsub(t[1],"State: ","")

        
        if(status == "Cleaning" and otherdevices_svalues['Bumbee'] ~= '10') then
            commandArray['Bumbee'] = 'Set Level 10';
        end
            
        if(status == "Charging" and otherdevices_svalues['Bumbee'] ~= '30') then
            if(otherdevices_svalues['Bumbee'] == '10' and uservariables['bCleanToday'] == 10) then
                if(t[4] ~= nil and t[5] ~= nil) then
                    -- Benachrichtigung
                    local cleantime = string.gsub(t[4],"Cleaning since: ","")
                    local cleanspace =  string.gsub(string.gsub(t[5],"Cleaned area: ","")," m.","")

            end
            commandArray['Bumbee'] = 'Set Level 30';
        end
            
        if((status == "Paused" or status == "Charger disconnected" or status =="Idle") and otherdevices_svalues['Bumbee'] ~= '20') then

            commandArray['Bumbee'] = 'Set Level 20';

            commandArray['Bumbee'] = 'Set Level 40';

With MiToolkit you only need an phone with Android 4 or higher.
It can be rooted, but dont have to. The method works completely without root.

I tried MKIToolKit but can't get the token. Will try to find a video explaining how this app works.

In generell you don´t need a rootet phone.

There are also other ways to get the token. You could get the token also with mirobo. Therefore you need to reset your robot and connect your Raspi to the Robo-Wifi. This way is descriped in the github-link above.

Well ok, I was not clear. I don't have an Android, only iPhone. And my raspberry don't have wifi.

Ive managed to extract the file from the phone, but there is 1536 lines of code. So how will ill now what line is correct?

"EDIT"
I have now manage to get the token.
I used this guide,(its a German site) http://technikzeugs.de/xiaomi-mirobot-s ... n/?fref=gc
So ill hope this help someone.
