[MyDomoAtHome] Support thread

[epierre]

Imperihome released its API that permits any system implementing it to be recognized and integrated in ther mobile device UI.

http://www.imperihome.com/apidoc/systemapi/

It is quite easy to integrate with, and that would permit to have a WAF UI available for tablet and smartphone.


INSTALLATION

Please see https://github.com/empierre/MyDomoAtHom ... /README.md


SUPPORT

Regarding support: since I don't have all devices, please send to [email protected] your domoticz.db so I can try to reproduce what you have and make a more efficient support on devices I wouldn't have.

LAST CHANGES (see https://github.com/empierre/MyDomoAtHome)

Latest updates:
- RGB devices
- multiswitch
- custom sensor
- graphes on all devices day/week/month/year

TODO:
- local camera
- grouping switches and instant energy

[joshimosh]

Installed and works flawlessly ! Thanks a lot.
If it is not too much work for you, may I ask you to post a short hint in this thread when a new update has been made ?
Thank you for your work.

Hello,

Well this is work in progress, some changes yesterday with confirmation by users today so here are the news:

NEW:
- Full thermostat support including changing the Setpoint
- push on/off button roll backed to switch

TODO:
- manage curves for all devices
- RGB management
- some UTF fixes ?
- a barometer issue ?

[epierre]

Well utf8 issue is on arm, not on intel...
I've asked about the fix, but have a few hope on this...

Thank you for this update. I can confirm that there seems to be an issue with barometric pressure. Instead of barometer, temp and humidity are displayed.
Anyway, for tablet display, for my taste Imperihome looks better than the (standard) Domoticz dashboard - but of course you can discuss endlessly about taste
So again: thank you very much for your work ! I really appreciate it.
Cheers
Josh

Take a look, you chould have both in two separated devices.

Domoticz has one object for Temp+Hum+Baro, Imperihome has two (btw they have the same name)

I have a solution that will require, when validated, to make an upgrade to Dancer2, so a simple upgrade won't be possible for those using the current version.

Stay tuned, it may also improve performance again !

Yes, I know. The problem is that in Imperihome both objects give me Temp+Hum, but no Baro.

They have the same display name, try reloading in imperihome your devices

Hi, me again:-)
once more: thank you so much for providing this gateway to Imperihome. I have only started to explore the potentials. Domoticz + MySensors + Imperihome is an extremely useful combination for me - exactly what I've been looking for.
I can only hope that you keep up your work. Thanks again
Josh

[epierre]

fine, the best of all worlds for me, a central controller and a good app, with all the possibilities for hardware, this is the best combination !

Hi,
since a few days I am experiencing problems with this gateway.
Problem 1: It crashes from time to time. In nohup.out I see the follwing lines:

2015/06/24-08:19:26 Starman::Server (type Net::Server::PreFork) starting! pid(2635)
Resolved [*]:5001 to [0.0.0.0]:5001, IPv4
Host [*] resolved to IPv6 address [::] but IO::Socket::INET6->new fails: Die Adressfamilie wird von der Protokollfamilie nicht unterst%C3%BCtzt at /usr/share/perl5/Net/Server/Proto.pm line 133.
Binding to TCP port 5001 on host 0.0.0.0 with IPv4
Setting gid to "1000 1000 4 5 20 24 27 29 44 46 60 100 105 107 999 1000 1002 1003"
TYPE:temp + humidity
2015/06/24-11:24:55 Server closing!

Problem 2: I can start the gateway "by hand":
cd domoticz/MyDomoAtHome
start.sh

Since I want the gateway to start automatically during start-up of my Raspi, I have entered in /etc/rc.local the line

/home/pi/domoticz/MyDomoAtHome/start.sh

(/home/pi is the home directory)
The gateway is not running afterwards. Same thing if I enter /home/pi/domoticz/MyDomoAtHome/start.sh
If it required that I have first to switch to the directory where the gateway resides before I can call start.sh ?
If so, may I suggest that you mention it in your description ?

Cheers
Josh

[epierre]

Code: Select all

2015/06/24-11:24:55 Server closing!

This looks like some manual killing, like running the process and closing the shell or a kill.

There is a proper start script to use, place it in /etc/init.d with executable flags, modify the paths in it line 20, and add the runlevels corresponding to your system:

https://github.com/empierre/MyDomoAtHom ... oAtHome.sh

[joshimosh]

Thank you for your fast reaction, most welcome !
Will try the start script.
As to the issue "Server closing!": I did not perform a manual kill. I started the gateway with start.sh, as decsribed in the wiki. The gateway detaches from the shell (nohup) and works fine after I have closed the terminal session.
As you can see from the output of nohup, start was at 8:19, closing several hours later at 11:24. I did not have any open session on that Raspi at 11:24.

Anyway, thanks a lot. I will have an eye on it and will keep you posted.
Cheers
Josh

Once again I try to get familar with IH.
I just put my nohup.out here, maybe it is selfexplaining.

@jkimmel there is already a process on port 5001

2015/06/29-16:37:51 Can't connect to TCP port 5001 on 0.0.0.0 [Address already in use]

try finding it out with :

Code: Select all

sudo lsof -i tcp:5001

and kill the process, certainly a starman already up, and start again.

Good evening,
I have a question: does your gateway relay sounds from Domoticz to Imperihome ? My best guess is that it does not (I can imagine that this would be pretty difficult), but who knows
Cheers Josh

[pluggin]

This gateway works on ARM architecture like raspeberry PI?

is there sound in domoticz ?

yes it works on PI, and since it is architecture independant (in perl) it works on any computer given you have the right libraries
