Is it possible to see Wemo switches/sensor being added to the list of supported devices?
I currently have multiple disparate devices for HA and trying to hub them all together

Hi,

I own several Belkin WeMo devices also (Wemo Switch, Wemo Maker, Wemo Bulb and Wemo Insight Switch) does Domoticz support them?

Thanks.

No support yet. If your an coder. You can add the support yourself and share it here so others can use it also

Well, I maybe do this, but there are several different devices and some of them are very expensive, is there any developer in Europe?

Yes, I think all of them are from the Netherlands.
Maybe you can just let one of them borrow a device.

You can send a mail to: info [at] domoticz [dot] com

When you send a device to one of the cores, [ Gizmocuz ] perhaps he wil make it work. [ when possible and when they have time
I think the cores can not buy all the hardware...
So a donotion for a devices is a good option... ;) ;) ;)



edit:
very expensive,???

I think there a more expensive Zwave devices...
It is open source.....

Today I sent an email to that address, asking for Belkin WeMo support on Domoticz and they emailed me saying to ask for this on this forum, the guy that answered my email does not show other interest in having the device for testing or either asked for any details!!!

While I am not a professional coder, I can tinker around a little bit.
I understand the basic protocol that Wemo uses and can attempt this if I could find a couple of examples of how other devices have been integrated

Why not try to contact the developers mentioned on this post?

Hi! I've been working in a hardware plugin for Sonos and other UPnP media renderers (~speakers) for some time now. It's still in beta state, but more or less works. As it turns out, a WeMo switch is another specific type UPnP device. I wrote a message in another thread in this forum not long ago with more details (search for WeMo UPnP).

I've compiled a Domoticz Version for Raspberry with Sonos/UPnP support, that can be found at https://github.com/mgsg/domoticz-sonos-plugin. In the last versions I've included some test code to explore if it's easy to support a WeMo switch. But I don't own one!

It would be interesting if some Raspi + WeMo owner could read the instructions in the Readme text there, backup his Domoticz executable and db, try my executable (watch the highly probable crash) and publish here the logs...

I would like to try it but I don't own a Raspi !!
Probably someone else could try it!

Solved for switches via a library called Ouimeaux

1) Installed Ouimeaux
2) Created a basic script for switching Wemo On and another script for off
3) Created dummy Switch and linked the script to on/off action

Next step - To solve for linking the Wemo Motion sensor

Can you be able to use the rules with this library?
With Wemo Insight Switch we could read some information about electricity consumption, will this information be available with this library to use on domoticz?

Rules, definitely yes
I do not have a Insight switch so cannot test it, however the ouimeaux library does say it supports Insight

Hi superczar; I've sent you a PM to see if you could help me implement the Domoticz with Wemo but since you haven't replied yet, is it possible for you to create a Wiki page explaining this integration like you did with LIFX?

Thanks.

Sure - Sorry I didn't see your PM
Planning to use Sunday to solve for the Wemo Motion integration (Almost there)
once done, will post on the wiki
