Setup MQTT support to connect external devices
引言
系统架构
MQTT [1] 是机器对机器的 (M2M)/"物联网"通信协议。它被设计的目的是成为一个非常轻量级的发布/订阅消息传输平台。 MQTT 提供发布/订阅消息模式,以提供一对多消息分发和应用程序解耦。
Node.js [2] 是基于Chrome的JavaScript运行时构建的平台,可轻松构建快速、可扩展的网络应用程序。 Node-RED [3] 是一个在Node.js平台上运行的工具,它提供了一个基于浏览器的流编辑器,可以很容易地将“流”连接起来。流量可以通过单击来部署到运行时中。
Domoticz 本地支持多种硬件设备(rfxtrx433, zwave, smartmeter etc.),在系统里还有大量其他设备和接口。使用它的原生MQTT接口Domoticz可以将事件从内部发布到外部。Domoticz还可以响应任何人请求的行为(并由MQTT代理传递)。只是需要注意创建和解释这些消息。
Node-RED工具提供了另一种创建小程序(流程)的方式来与任何你想要的接口连接。但是,也许你的应用程序可以自己创建MQTT消息,Domoticz可以理解它。或者,也许你喜欢在Node.js本身中创建程序。因此,使用Node-RED并不是强制性的,但它提供了一种有趣而有吸引力的方式来处理消息。
如果你不想使用MQTT,也可以使用Domoticz的内部LUA引擎(例如使用commandArray ['OpenURL']功能)。所以这也取决于你的需求和喜好。
你需要做好的准备
- 运行在Raspberry Pi上的Domoticz(支持Windows或Mac,但本教程重点介绍Pi)
- Node.JS(我们将在稍后安装它)
- Node-RED(我们将在稍后安装它)
- MQTT代理(我们将在稍后安装它)
- 几个Node-RED示例流程
- 在Domoticz中添加'虚拟'硬件:“Create a MQTT Client Gateway with LAN interface”(在本地主机上)
安装软件
Please note that the current Domoticz SDCard image has this included, and you do not need to install any software.
安装 Node.JS
- NOTE: Do you need this, since node.red instalation later removes old node.js and npm and installs newer ones ?
- Please follow the instructions to install nodejs.
- After that, install some modules using the Node Package Manager:
sudo npm install -g mqtt url request
If you want to debug or auto-reload of the script, also install nodemon:
sudo npm install -g nodemon
...
安装 Mosquitto
It is highly recommended that if you are using Debian or Rasbian that you use the additional Mosquitto repositories. This will ensure you get the latest stable version of Mosquitto as determined by the project itself, rather than an outdated version via the Debian or Raspbian repositories.
Rather than re-iterating the install procedure here, the guide given at http://mosquitto.org/2013/01/mosquitto-debian-repository/ is simple and easy to follow, and we encourage you to give their process a shot.
安装 Node-RED
Instructions can be found here: [4]
Node-RED should now be available on HTTP port 1880
添加硬件 "MQTT Client Gateway"
Domoticz needs to subscribe to the Mosquitto MQTT message broker that is now running locally. Under Setup/Hardware add a device of type: "MQTT Client Gateway with LAN interface" with settings:
- Data Timeout: Disabled
- Remote Address: localhost
- Port: 1883
- Username: empty
- Password: empty
To finish press 'Add'.
To test if Domoticz receives data, create a Dummy Virtual temperature sensor.
- Under Setup/Hardware add a device of type: "Dummy (Does nothing, use for virtual switches only)" with the name of your choice ("Dummy" for example).
- In the corresponding entry of your just created "Dummy" hardware, click the "Create Virtual Sensors" button that appear following his type. Then enter the name of your choice (Let's say "Fictive Temp").
- Under Setup/Devices, get the "idx" number of your "Fictive Temp" device (Let's say it's 1).
Then publish a temperature measurement to the virtual sensor idx noted above (example idx 1) like:
mosquitto_pub -h localhost -m '{ "idx" : 1, "nvalue" : 0, "svalue" : "25.0" }' -t 'domoticz/in'
If the mosquitto_pub command is not found install the mosquitto client:
sudo apt-get install mosquitto-clients
可用的 MQTT 应用
Owntracks
Owntracks ([owntracks.org]) is an app (both Android and iPhone) which periodicaly sends the location of a device to a mqtt-broker (e.g. mosquitto). A Node-RED script could subscribe to the owntracks-topic and republish the info in a Domoticz compatible message so Domoticz can use the location info.
Domoticz与MQTT的通信
Communication from and to Domoticz works via JSON. Default MQTT topics of the Domoticz for incoming and outcoming messages are:
domoticz/in domoticz/out
Domoticz 到 MQTT
{ "idx" : 5, "name" : "Internal Temperature", "id" : "00080A", "unit" : 1 "dtype" : "Temp", "stype" : "TFA 30.3133", "nvalue" : 0, "svalue1" : "41.2", "Battery" : 100, "RSSI" : 12, }
{ "idx" : 7, "name" : "S0 P1", "id" : "123456", "unit" : 0 "dtype" : "Energy", "stype" : "CM119 / CM160", "nvalue" : 0, "svalue1" : "90", "svalue2" : "2975.00", "Battery" : 100, "RSSI" : 12, }
The format is compatible as described in Domoticz_API/JSON_URL's wiki page, except the "svalue" is split into multiple parts for easier parsing
MQTT 到 Domoticz
消息格式与JSON wiki中的内容相同。
更新设备/传感器
注意:如果 "command" 未设置,将使用 "udevice" 默认值,以下两条信息执行的效果是相同的:
{ "command": "udevice", "idx" : 7, "nvalue" : 0, "svalue" : "90;2975.00" }
{ "idx" : 7, "nvalue" : 0, "svalue" : "90;2975.00" }
发送开关转换命令
{"command": "switchlight", "idx": 2450, "switchcmd": "On" } {"command": "switchlight", "idx": 2450, "switchcmd": "Set Level", "level": 100 } {"command": "setcolbrightnessvalue", "idx": 2450, "hue": 274, "brightness": 40, "iswhite"=false } {"command": "setcolbrightnessvalue", "idx": 2450, "hex": "RRGGBB", "brightness": 100, "iswhite"=false } {"command": "setcolbrightnessvalue", "idx": 2450, "color": {"m":3,"t":0,"r":0,"g":0,"b":50,"cw":0,"ww":0}, "brightness": 40}
The options for setcolbrightnessvalue are explained on Domoticz_API/JSON_URL's#Set_a_light_to_a_certain_color_or_color_temperature
发送场景命令
{"command": "switchscene", "idx": 24, "switchcmd": "On" } {"command": "switchscene", "idx": 24, "switchcmd": "Toggle" }
发送通知命令
Optional: priority, sound
{"command": "sendnotification", "subject": "My Subject", "body": "My Body", "priority": 0, "sound": "mysound" }
设置用户变量
{"command": "setuservariable", "idx": 1, "value": "12.3" }
请求设备信息
{"command": "getdeviceinfo", "idx": 2450 }
请求场景信息
{"command": "getsceneinfo", "idx": 1 }
Log 信息
{"command" : "addlogmessage", "message" : "MyMessage to log" }
