Hi again
I trying now to build my own but I have a litle problem with the API/JSON of Domoticz
I have create a Virtual sensors and a device that have "Temp" as type
everything looks fine and is time to insert info
Before I did connect all my script I did make it easy and just write a static value of the weather to a webbrowser
Code: Select all
http://<ipaddress>:8080/json.htm?type=command¶m=udevice&idx=15&nvalue=1.2
as you can see the idx number is 15 and the value is set to 1.2
I get no error
{
"status" : "OK",
"title" : "Update Device"
}
but I get no update in the device?

All I do is read the textfile with python
Split where it is space and then use the array in the http protocol to send info to the Domoticz
A example to write the temp
Code: Select all
file = open("realtime.txt", "r")
vader = file.read().split(" ")
response = urllib2.urlopen('http://<ipaddress>:<port>/json.htm?type=command¶m=udevice&idx=15&nvalue=0&svalue=' + vader[2])

Hmm it was sometime now I did work with this (I run now Hassio) but what I can read is something with the python script
Not sure if that help but look at this page

At first you can see when you run your address in a browser that it show a value and no error.
Make the address static and put that in a browser and see if you get a value or a error
If you got a value then it mean that urllib2 to get the info. if you get a error then is something with the info you trying to get that is wrong.
