MMM-Domoticz-ext: interact with Domoticz

[Manu663]

@goedh452 Thank you for your quick reply, it’s much appreciated!
I have read the whole github unfortunately, I don’t manage to get a convincing result. It doesn’t matter, I’ll calm down and read the github again over a cup of coffee and start all over again.
But if others have examples, I’ll take them anyway ;-)

Once I calmed down and reread everything from the beginning I finally managed to get a nice result.
I feel ashamed that I called for help when it was just a silly syntax error. :sad_but_relieved_face:
Anyway, thank you for the marvelous job done there !

@manu663

No problem at all! The module became a bit complex during the build :-)

[Shaitan]

Hi @goedh452,
Your mod is so great, but I think you already know that ;-).
Like the others, this is exactly what I was looking for.

But after installing it, it doesn’t display anything, just the title on my MM. I notice in the domoticz log that he contacts him but I do not know if it is a problem of connection or reception of data…

Thank a lot for your help

Here are the informations and screenshots :

@shaitan

Hi, thanks for the compliment!

At first glance, I do not see any reason why it doesn’t work. Could you try opening the mirror in a browser on a computer: :8080.

Then open the monitor with F12 and see if the module generates error messages. Post the error messages here please.

[Shaitan]

This is what you want @goedh452 ? There are only these errors

[sdetweil]

@shaitan by default custom.css doesn’t exist… if you used my install script I would have created an empty one

but u can do this

touch ~/MagicMirror/css/custom.css

[Shaitan]

Hi @sdetweil
the new file has been created, but nothing on the MM’s screen… But this errors are been vanish !

[sdetweil]

@shaitan cool… black screen, maybe this
https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/15778/fix-for-black-screen-in-2-16-and-later

[Shaitan]

@sdetweil
sorry I misled you. with your command the errors have disappeared, but the display of my MM is the same as before. there is no black screen

[sdetweil]

@shaitan ok, I can’t help with the module operation… have no system like that

[Shaitan]

@sdetweil thanks anyway for this errors ! Less is the better !

[goedh452]

@shaitan

Ok, so the module doesn’t produce any errors. I’ll dive into it to see what is causing the problem.

[Shaitan]

@goedh452 ok thank you !

[Shaitan]

@goedh452
I started from zero to be sure that it is not a problem between your module and another program on my pi.
So I did a new installation of MM on another Raspberry Pi with a clean raspian.

Above, there is only your modules installed (I just copy my config.js from my other MM).
Here is the MM launch screen with SSH :

[goedh452]

@shaitan

The errors indicate that Domiticz cannot be reached. Would it be possible to temporarily disable the authentication in Domoticz and test it again?

[Shaitan]

@goedh452 I don’t know how to remove the authentication on domoticz, I just added its IP to the whitelist and I got this:

[goedh452]

@shaitan

Just remove the username en password and save the settings.

[Shaitan]

@goedh452 Same screen

[sdetweil]

@shaitan said in MMM-Domoticz-ext: interact with Domoticz:

I just added its IP to the whitelist

I just want to add for this and other folks…

when integrating multiple systems , 1st thing to do is disable all ip filtering/firewalls
in MagicMirror this is

address:"0.0.0.0", // let any outside system connect , "localhost" means ONLY apps INSIDE this same machine can connect
ipWhitelist:[],   // no restrictions on specific systems connecting.

once working, then u can add back whatever u might need… ,

and if it impacts the integration, then u will know as it is the last change…
