URL commands to Domoticz (HC3)

[Firepeet 6]

I'm really a noob with QA, and I've spent already hours and hours looking for a solution of my problem.

Because HC3 does not yet support Somfy RTS, I want to control my Somfy roller shutters using Domoticz. I can easily operate them from Domoticz, and I can operate them also by an URL like 

http://192.168.1.138:8080/json.htm?type=command&param=switchlight&idx=52&switchcmd=(On, Off or stop)

 

How can I integrate this in  the standard QuickApp for the roller shutters?

This QA has the following code:

I found a step by step tutorial, but only for the HC2:

@Firepeet

You are missing any calls to the specified URL in QA.
I will say: In your example you have a link to the manual for QA. Look for the paragraph - net.HTTPClient and HTTPClient: request (address, params).
There are beautiful examples of use.
You have more ways to reach the goal:
1) In each function (up, down, stop ..) you add the appropriate lines of code with HTTPclient and you will have a done but gigantic code. Always add the correct code to the string:
local address = "http://192.168.1.138:8080/json.htm?type=command&param=switchlight&idx=52&switchcmd=On"
= Off "
= stop "

2) create another function

function QuickApp: fcCommands(cmd)

--... all from before example for one cmd...

end

 

that will contain variables and parameters (up, down, stop, On, Off ..) embedded in the string local address = "http://192.168.1.138:8080/json.htm?type=command&param=switchlight&idx=52&switchcmd=" ..cmd

The command variable will then take the value of the passed parameter from the function.
You add functions with a parameter to the function. For example:
function QuickApp: open ()
    -- self: debug ("roller shutter opened")
    --  self: updateProperty ("value", 99)
fibaro.call (self.id, "fcCommands", "On")
end

 

Note:

Delete lines 18-22 from the example QA manual. Alternatively, you can change them if you want to read the information that will be returned when sending an http string. The same goes for the header.
This information can be used for debugging, whether the command was executed, reading the state of the state, etc. The result may be returned in JSON format, then the rest of the example with decoding the result will be useful.
Test the crucial http view in the browser of what is written after submission.

 

Have fun coding. It will take you to the next level.

eM.

Hi @Martin_N, thanks for your answer. You have reopened for me the door to programming with QA? 

 

I added the following code for opened (i did also for closed and stopped), but it's still not working.

(The shutters are moving when i follow the link by ctrl + click, so the links are correct)

Then i get the following debug messages:

Just wonder what can’t HC3 what can Domoticz

Well

as I can see api easy can be portable to HC3 

Please login or register to see this link.

no,  I am not interesting for this device but as fact implementation for HC3 not difficult as for me 

[Guest rafal_ll]

Thank you Firepeet@ . It will help me a lot

Do not call a local function via RPC.

just for your info

Please can you explain what you mean?

fibaro.call (self.id, "fcCommands", "Off")

should be simplest as 

self:fcCommands(“Off”)

instead of RPC call via fibaro.call

Can the roller blind be used in a block scene?
It only moves the slider and the blind does nothing.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I activated the slider. You can probably do better.
This is the only way I can. It works

 

function QuickApp:open()

   self: debug ("roller shutter opened")

   self: updateProperty ("value", 99) 

fibaro.call (self.id, "fcCommands", "Off")

end

 

function QuickApp:close()

   self: debug ("roller shutter closed")

   self: updateProperty ("value", 0) 

fibaro.call (self.id, "fcCommands", "On")

end

 

function QuickApp:stopLevelChange()

   self: debug ("roller shutter stopped")

   self: updateProperty ("value", 50) 

fibaro.call (self.id, "fcCommands", "Stop")

end

 

function QuickApp: fcCommands(cmd)

local address = "http://192.168.1.107:8084/json.htm?type=command&param=switchlight&idx=827&switchcmd=" ..cmd

 

    self.http:request(address, {

        options={

            headers = { 

                Accept = "application/json"

            },

            checkCertificate = true,

            method = 'GET'

        },

        success = function(response)

            self:debug("response status:", response.status) 

            self:debug("headers:", response.headers["Content-Type"]) 

            local data = json.decode(response.data)

        end,

        error = function(error)

            self:debug('error: ' .. json.encode(error))

        end

    }) 

end

 

-- Wartość jest typem liczby całkowitej (0-99)

function QuickApp:setValue(value)

    self:debug("roller shutter set to: " .. tostring(value))

    self:updateProperty("value", value)  

 

    if value >= 80 then

    self: debug ("Roleta otwarta")

    self: updateProperty ("value", 99 )

    fibaro.call (self.id, "fcCommands", "Off")

    elseif (value >=40 and value <=60) then

    self: debug ("Roleta zatrzymana")

    self: updateProperty ("value", 50)

    fibaro.call (self.id, "fcCommands", "Stop")

    elseif value <= 20 then

    self: debug ("Roleta zamknięta")

    self: updateProperty ("value", 0)

    fibaro.call (self.id, "fcCommands", "On")

    end

end

 

function QuickApp:setValueVar(value)

    self:debug("roller shutter set to: " .. tostring(value))

    self:updateProperty("value", value)  

end

 

function QuickApp:onInit()

    self:debug("onInit")

     self.http = net.HTTPClient({timeout=3000})

end

I Changed the code a bit for the next reasons.

1) Like 10der said, do not perform internally a RPC call via fibaro.

2) As soon as you call an updateProperty twice in a row, you must give the 'code behind' the possibility to execute the update.

     This can be done with a timeout of 200. but 300 is safer.

3) I aslo change the values, so there are no blind spots..

 

Please Check if it works...

and let me know.

Nice noticed 10der..

Not really a command that you call with an external QA or scene.

Then I prefer to make such a function local, I think it's cleaner.

 

But both functions work properly!

Hmmm. sorry.

I see, there was a closing ')' missing at the end of the timeout function..

My code above updated.

 

thanks..

I needed a simple way to update the shutter state while using the remote.

Domoticz easily sends variables to Fibaro HC3.

I created the variables.

There is probably a better way, it works fine for me and doesn't burden the switchboard
