pimatic-mysensors controller plugin

[ricardot]

I can´t make mysensors plugin works in pimatic. I added this lines at plugins session of config.json with no sucess:

{
"plugin": "MySensors",
"driver": "serialport",
"protocols": "1.4.1",
"driverOptions": {
"serialDevice": "/dev/ttyUSB0", # #'/dev/ttyUSBx' if using serial Gateway
"baudrate": 115200
}
}

I received error messages like syntax error.

I removed the # #'/dev/ttyUSBx' if using serial Gateway

Since i haven't register mysensors with npm. that's the reason it is giving you the error. As a work around try download & manually installing pimatic-MySensors in node_module in pimatic-app folder.. Here other plugins are also installed like Pimatic-mobile-fontend etc.. Pimatic should be able to pick it up..
I will try to fix this issue meanwhile.

Let me know if it's works.

[ricardot]

I manually installed the pimatic-mysensors, seems it works, but I'm receiving this message:

13:46:47.360 [pimatic] Cannot find module 'bluebird'

Later I added two devices, a PIR and a relay-switch, and I'm receiving this message:

13:46:49.289 [pimatic] no plugin found for device "Switch" of class "MySensorsSwitch"!
13:46:49.305 [pimatic] no plugin found for device "PIR" of class "MySensorsPIR"!

give me sometime will fix this issue.

@ricardot

I have fixed the issues, plugin published to public npm registry . now i think it should work perfectly

[ricardot]

@Dheeraj

It worked now, but I had to change the ttyUSB0 to ttyACM0. I'm using the uno for the gateway.

[ricardot]

Dheeraj,

When we can expect more variables available to mysensors plugin? I miss a simple on off switch.

Thanks!

[Dheeraj]

@ricardot
contact/door/light mysensor add to list.. just check :)

This is my first try at getting MySensors to work.

I've connected a SerialGateway to the Pi, and configured a DHT22 sensor. But no values are recorded.

Logs from the pi:

<- I_LOG_MESSAGE 0;0;3;0;9;read: 255-255-0 s=255,c=3,t=3,pt=0,l=0:
<- I_ID_REQUEST 255;255;3;0;3;
<- I_LOG_MESSAGE 0;0;3;0;9;read: 255-255-0 s=255,c=3,t=3,pt=0,l=0:
<- I_ID_REQUEST 255;255;3;0;3;

Serial output from the sensor:

req node id
send: 255-255-0-0 s=255,c=3,t=3,pt=0,l=0,st=ok:
T: 22.70
req node id
send: 255-255-0-0 s=255,c=3,t=3,pt=0,l=0,st=ok:
H: 31.10
req node id
send: 255-255-0-0 s=255,c=3,t=3,pt=0,l=0,st=ok:
H: 31.00

What can I be doing wrong? Seems like the sensor is requesting a node ID but not getting any?

Thank you for any kind of response!

Regards, Martin

@gogomartin

Currently mysensors plugin only support static node id. Try configuring static node id in sensor code. Hint.. Gw. Begin (null, node id)

Let me know if it's works

[ricardot]

Dheeraj,

Good work!

Is possible to send sensor battery level info?

[Dheeraj]

@ricardot

battery sensor visualization is WIP..

[Ralf H]

hey,
I really like your plugin now that I finally managed to get everything working. :)
But I would also like to use a BH1750 Light sensor with your plugin. I made a sensorbox with PIR to switch on lights for a minute when movement is detected, but I only want to switch on light when it's dark enough. Is it planned to add support for this?

[Dheeraj]

This post is deleted!

[Dheeraj]

@ricardot added support for battery level stats 0.8.9

[Dheeraj]

@Ralf-H sure will add support for light sensor

[Vladut Grecu]

I would like to help you make a color picker for rgb leds and a slider for random pwm outputs :D
-edit-

deviceClasses = [
        MySensorsDHT
        MySensorsBMP
        MySensorsPIR
        MySensorsSwitch
        MySensorsPulseMeter
        MySensorsButton
        MySensorBattery
        MySensorsDevDimmer
      ]

and

 class MySensorsDevDimmer extends env.devices.DimmerActuator

    constructor: (@config,lastState, @board) ->
      @id = config.id
      @name = config.name
      @_state = lastState?.state?.value
      env.logger.info "MySensorsDevDimmer" , @id , @name, @_state

      @board.on('rfValue', (result) =>
        if result.sender is @config.nodeid and result.type is
        V_LIGHT and result.sensor is @config.sensorid
          state = (if parseInt(result.value) is 1 then on else off)
          env.logger.info "<- MySensorDevDimmer " , result
          @_setState(state)
        )
      super()

    changeStateTo: (state) ->
      assert state is on or state is off
      if state is true then _state = 1  else _state = 0
      datas = {}
      datas =
      {
        "destination": @config.nodeid,
        "sensor": @config.sensorid,
        "type"  : V_LIGHT,
        "value" : _state,
        "ack"   : 1
      }
      @board._rfWrite(datas).then ( () =>
        @_setState(state)
      )

But i get :
Could not initialize the plugin "mysensors": MySensorsDevDimmer is not defined

I know that this won`t actually work because of the :

 state = (if parseInt(result.value) is 1 then on else off) 

and the :

  if state is true then _state = 1  else _state = 0

What I don't get is why does it throw me that error. (Don't go hard on me, I just learned the basics of coffee script only for this)
