Hi,
i need some help with an Python Script which should wake up the Mirror by pressing the button. I got some Philips Hue Light Switches but have trouble to curl the right data. I think the switch is pretty good for this, because no installation is needed. ![alt text](https://www.macsources.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/Photo_315.jpg)
The Script should wake up the Mirror with libcec over HDMI, also turn the LCD off in Standby by pressing the button.
In the Philips Hue Bridge i have whitelisted the Pi and with curl i can read the last Buttonevents of the right switch over the existing API (http://192.168.X.XXX/api/WBLuUNIQUEUSERIDbdQ0-iEetTe5/sensors/5)
This Site gave me the following JSON Data:
{„state": {"buttonevent":1002,"lastupdated":"2016-05-04T15:00:51"},"config":{"on":true,"battery":100,"reachable":true},"name":"Hue dimmer switch 1","type":"ZLLSwitch","modelid":"RWL021","manufacturername":"Philips","swversion":"5.45.1.16265","uniqueid":"XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"}
buttonevent 1002 is for turn on and 4002 is for turn off
So i worked on a script which will should check all 10 seconds the Buttonstatus and regarding this Wake Up the LCD.
import urllib2
import time
def SensorState( SensorName ):
s = "buttonevent\":"
a = urllib2.urlopen("http://192.168.X.XXX/api/monitor/sensors/" + SensorName ).read()
b = a.find(s) + len(s)
e = a.find(",",b)
return a[b:e];
while 1 == 1:
lastState = SensorState("2")
while (SensorState ("2") == lastState):
time.sleep(0.5)
print "State Changed!" + SensorState("2")
For LIBCEC the action for Turn on is echo "on 0" | sudo cec-client -s -d 1
and echo "standby 0" | sudo cec-client -s -d 1
to turn it off.
Over SSH all commands will work good on its own, but i need a script…
It is my first time with Phyton, the Script should be easy for someone with more experience in this. Maybe someone could help mit with this?
Thank you for your help!
