homebridge-lacrosseweb

Homebridge plugin for Lacrosse Alerts Mobile devices

Overview

This is a Homebridge plugin for Lacrosse Alerts Mobile devices. It scrapes the lacrossealertsmobile.com site to get the information it needs.

Installation

With Homebridge already installed, install the plugin by running: npm install -g homebridge-lacrosseweb

Configuration

Here is an example stanza for your config.json:

"platforms": [
  {
    "platform": "LacrosseWeb",
    "username": "username",
    "password": "password",
    "apiBaseURL": "https://lacrossealertsmobile.com/v1.2",
    "configCacheSeconds": 960,
    "noResponseMinutes": 30,
    "allowBadSSL": true
  }
]

Required Options

• platform - Must be "LacrosseWeb".
• username - This is the username you use to log in to lacrossealertsmobile.com.
• password - This is the password you use to log in to lacrossealertsmobile.com.

Optional Options

• apiBaseURL - The URL to the Lacrosse Alerts web site. Defaults to "https://lacrossealertsmobile.com/v1.2".
• configCacheSeconds - The number of seconds to cache the Lacrosse Alerts configuration for. This prevents the plugin from constantly scraping their website. The default value is 960.
• noResponseMinutes - The number of minutes of no new data after which to report to HomeKit that the device is not responding. The default value is 30.
• allowBadSSL - Whether or not to allow bad certificates in SSL connections. The default should be false, but I've made it be true because Lacrosse is currently using a self-signed certificate on their website.
