In addition to sending requests using standard UPnP, you can also do most things using a simple HTTP requests. Use the built-in URL data_request, and pass the following on the URL:
- id the id of the request (prior to 15 Oct 2010 all requests had an lu_ in front, which is now optional),
- output_format the format in which you want a response as json, xml or text.
Not all requests support all output_format options. Here is a list of requests:
Contents |
user_data
Example: http://ipaddress:3480/data_request?id=user_data&output_format=xml
This returns the configuration data for Vera, which is a list of all devices and the UPnP variables which are persisted between resets as well as rooms, names, and other data the user sets as part of the configuration.
status
Example: http://ipaddress:3480/data_request?id=status&output_format=xml
Or for a specific device: http://ipaddress:3480/data_request?id=status&output_format=xml&UDN=uuid:4d494342-5342-5645-0002-000000000002 or http://ipaddress:3480/data_request?id=status&output_format=xml&DeviceNum=6
This returns the current status for all devices including all the current upnp variables and the status of any active jobs.
sdata
This is an abbreviated form of user_data and status (sdata=summary data). It allows a user interface that is only worried about control, and not detailed configuration, to get a summary of the data that would normally be presented to the user and to monitor the changes. See UI_Simple for a walkthrough.
actions
device
Example: http://ipaddress:3480/data_request?id=device&action=rename&device=5&name=Chandalier&room=3
Example: http://ipaddress:3480/data_request?id=device&action=rename&device=5&name=Chandalier&room=Garage
Example: http://ipaddress:3480/data_request?id=device&action=delete&device=5
This renames or deletes a device. Use action=rename or action=delete. For rename, you can optionally assign a room by either passing either the ID or the name.
---old--- This returns all the XML with all the UPNP device description documents. Use: http://ipaddress:3480/data_request?id=device&output_format=xml&DeviceNum=x or &UDN=y to narrow it down. Then when you see the service URL's, like <SCPDURL>/luvd/S_HVAC_UserOperatingMode1.xml</SCPDURL>, you can view them with: http://ipaddress:3480/luvd/S_HVAC_UserOperatingMode1.xml ---end old---
scene
Example: http://ipaddress:3480/data_request?id=scene&action=record
Example: http://ipaddress:3480/data_request?id=scene&action=pause&seconds=y
Example: http://ipaddress:3480/data_request?id=scene&action=stoprecord
Example: http://ipaddress:3480/data_request?id=scene&action=listrecord
Example: http://ipaddress:3480/data_request?id=scene&action=deleterecord&number=x
Example: http://ipaddress:3480/data_request?id=scene&action=saverecord&name=whatever&room=X
Example: http://ipaddress:3480/data_request?id=scene&action=rename&scene=5&name=Chandalier&room=Garage
Example: http://ipaddress:3480/data_request?id=scene&action=delete&scene=5
Example: http://ipaddress:3480/data_request?id=scene&action=create&json=[valid json data]
Example: http://ipaddress:3480/data_request?id=scene&action=list&scene=5
This creates, renames, or deletes a scene depending on the action.
Recording a scene means whatever actions come in after sending the 'record' will be saved into an internal buffer. listrecord shows what's recorded so far. pause adds a pause. deleterecord deletes some action in the internal buffer. When deleting, for number=x, use the same 'id' in listrecord. saverecord takes the internal buffer, the recorded macro, and saves it as an actual scene.
To create a scene by hand, rather than recording it, use 'create'. When using the 'create' command json must be valid JSON for a scene as documented in Scene_Syntax. The name, room and optional id (if you're overwriting an existing scene) are passed in the json, so nothing is on the command line except the json. Because the json data can be long it is recommended to send it as an http POST instead of GET with the data passed with the name "json"
list returns the JSON data for an existing scene.
room
Example: http://ipaddress:3480/data_request?id=room&action=create&name=Kitchen
Example: http://ipaddress:3480/data_request?id=room&action=rename&room=5&name=Garage
Example: http://ipaddress:3480/data_request?id=scene&action=delete&room=5
This creates, renames, or deletes a room depending on the action. To rename or delete a room you must pass the room id for the room=.
file
lua
action
Sends a UPnP action.
To run a scene, you send the action 'RunScene' like this::
variableset
If you leave off the DeviceNum and serviceID, then this sets a top-level json tag called "Variable" with the value.
variableget
If you leave off the DeviceNum and serviceID, then this gets a top-level json tag called "Variable".
reload
Resets the Luup engine with any new configuration settings.
alive
Return OK if the engine is running.
finddevice
Return the device id, UDN, device type of the first device that matches all the parameters passed on the URL: devtype, ip, id
resync
ReSync's all the devices, rooms, users, sections with event servers and returns OK
wget
Returns the contents of the URL you pass in the "url" argument. Optionally append "user" and "pass" arguments for http authentication, and "timeout" to specify the maximum time to wait in seconds.
iprequests
Returns the recent IP requests in order by most recent first, including information about devices in use and if the IP is blacklisted (ignored by the plug and play mechanism). Optionally append "oldest" to specify the oldest IP request in seconds.
blacklistip
Append "ip" to the URL, and optionally "remove=1" to add (or remove) the IP to the blacklist so plug and play IP devices won't be added.
Not implemented yet!
live_energy_usage
For backward compatibility it reports current energy usage in a tab delimited format
request_image or request_video
Returns an image or video from a camera. This fetches the image/video from the camera using the URL (image) or DirectStreamingURL (video) for the device. Pass arguments:
cam = the device id of the camera. This is the only mandatory argument. res = optional: a resolution, which gets appended to the variable. So passing "low" means the image from the URL_low variable will be returned. If it doesn't exist it reverts to the standard URL or DirectStreamingURL timeout = optional: how long to wait for the image to be retrieved, or how long to retrieve video. defaults to 10 seconds. url = optional: override the camera's default URL ip = optional: override the camera's default ip user or pass = optional: override the camera's default username/password
