homebridge-http-webhooks

A http plugin with support of webhooks for Homebridge.

The plugin gets its states from any system that is calling the url to trigger a state change.

Currently supports contact, motion, occupancy, smoke sensors, switches, push buttons, lights (only on/off), temperature sensors, humidity sensors and thermostats.

Installation

1. Install homebridge using: npm install -g homebridge
2. Install this plugin using: npm install -g homebridge-http-webhooks
3. Update your configuration file. See sample-config.json snippet below.

Retrieve state

To retrieve the current state you need to call the url http://yourHomebridgeServerIp:webhook_port/?accessoryId=theAccessoryIdToTrigger The returned JSON format is:

    {
        success: true,
        state: cachedState
    }

Trigger change for boolean accessory

To trigger a change of a boolean accessory you need to call the url http://yourHomebridgeServerIp:webhook_port/?accessoryId=theAccessoryIdToTrigger&state=NEWSTATE

Contact sensor

For contact sensors the value for NEWSTATE is either true for contact or false for no contact.

Motion sensor

For motion sensors the value for NEWSTATE is either true for motion detection or false for no motion. If autoRelease is used, than the state will be released after 5 seconds.

Occupancy sensor

For occupancy sensors the value for NEWSTATE is either true for occupancy detection or 'false' for no occupancy. If autoRelease is used, than the state will be released after 5 seconds.

Smoke sensor

For smoke sensors the value for NEWSTATE is either true for smoke detection or false for no smoke.

Switch

For switches the value for NEWSTATE is either true for on or false for off.

Push button

For push buttons the value for NEWSTATE is true. The button will be released automatically.

Light

For lights the value for NEWSTATE is either true for on or false for off.

Outlet

For outlets the value for NEWSTATE is either true for on or false for off.

Outlet in use

For outlets the additional state stateOutletInUse is available. The value for NEWSTATE is either true for on or false for off and can be changed by calling the url http://yourHomebridgeServerIp:webhook_port/?accessoryId=theAccessoryIdToTrigger&stateOutletInUse=NEWSTATE

Trigger action

Switch

For switches you can trigger a url of any system for switching the switch on or off.

Push button

For push buttons you can trigger a url of any system for "pushing the button. The button will be released automatically.

Light

For lights you can trigger a url of any system for switching the light on or off.

Outlet

For outlets you can trigger a url of any system for switching the outlet on or off.

Update a numeric accessory

To update a numeric accessory you need to call the url http://yourHomebridgeServerIp:webhook_port/?accessoryId=theAccessoryIdToUpdate&value=NEWVALUE

Temperature sensor

For temperature sensors the value for NEWVALUE is the new temperature reading.

Light sensor

For light sensors the value for NEWVALUE is the new light intensity in lux (as float).

Humidity sensor

For humidity sensors the value for NEWVALUE is the new relative humidity percentage reading.

Air Quality sensor

For air quality sensors the value for NEWVALUE is the new air quality value (Between 1-5, 1 Excellent).

Thermostat

To update a thermostat you can update four different values:

• Current temperature reading: http://yourHomebridgeServerIp:webhook_port/?accessoryId=theAccessoryIdToUpdate&currenttemperature=NEWVALUE
• Target temperature: http://yourHomebridgeServerIp:webhook_port/?accessoryId=theAccessoryIdToUpdate&targettemperature=NEWVALUE
• Current state (Off=0 / Heating=1 / Cooling=2): http://yourHomebridgeServerIp:webhook_port/?accessoryId=theAccessoryIdToUpdate&currentstate=NEWVALUE
• Target state (Off=0 / Heat=1 / Cool=2 / Auto=3): http://yourHomebridgeServerIp:webhook_port/?accessoryId=theAccessoryIdToUpdate&targetstate=NEWVALUE

Security System

To update the state of security, you can update two different values:

• Current state (Stay=0 / Away=1 / Night=2 / Disarmed=3 / Triggered=4): http://yourHomebridgeServerIp:webhook_port/?accessoryId=theAccessoryIdToUpdate&currentstate=NEWVALUE
• Target state (Stay=0 / Away=1 / Night=2 / Disarm=3): http://yourHomebridgeServerIp:webhook_port/?accessoryId=theAccessoryIdToUpdate&targetstate=NEWVALUE

Garage Door opener

To update a garage door opener you can update three different values:

• Current door state (Open=0 / Closed=1 / Opening=2 / Closing=3 / Stopped=4): http://yourHomebridgeServerIp:webhook_port/?accessoryId=theAccessoryIdToUpdate&currentdoorstate=NEWVALUE
• Target door state (Open=0 / Closed=1): http://yourHomebridgeServerIp:webhook_port/?accessoryId=theAccessoryIdToUpdate&targetdoorstate=NEWVALUE
• Obstruction detected (No=0 / Yes=1): http://yourHomebridgeServerIp:webhook_port/?accessoryId=theAccessoryIdToUpdate&obstructiondetected=NEWVALUE

Stateless switch

Stateless switches requires 3 parameters accessoryId, buttonName and the event to trigger:

• Single press = 0
• Double press = 1
• Long press = 2

http://yourHomebridgeServerIp:webhook_port/?accessoryId=theAccessoryIdToUpdate&buttonName=theButtonName&event=EVENT

Lock mechanism

To update a lock mechanism you can update two different values:

Current lock state (unsecured=0 /secured=1 / jamned=2 /unknown=3 ): http://yourHomebridgeServerIp:webhook_port/?accessoryId=theAccessoryIdToUpdate&lockcurrentstate=NEWVALUE Target lock state (unsecured=0 / secured=1): http://yourHomebridgeServerIp:webhook_port/?accessoryId=theAccessoryIdToUpdate&locktargetstate=NEWVALUE
