gomotics

Coverage Status

Overview

Gomotics is a small program written in Go that aims offering easy to consume Rest API endpoints to Niko Home Control and act as interface between Niko Home Control and Jeedom. It can be used to solely link NHC to Jeedom or to build an UI to perform simple, day to day operations.

Features

  • NHC zero conf: automatically discovers the Niko Home Control
  • NHC switches
  • NHC dimmers
  • Interface with Jeedom (matches  NHC/Jeedom on name and location)
  • Automatically create NHC rooms, switches and dimmers in Jeedom

Demo

Installation

Navigate to the gomotics releases page. Select the latest version and download the gomotics executable for your platform. Unzip and save the executable file.

A docker image is automatically build with Travis-CI. It is available on docker hub.

Configuration

Gomotics can run with minimal configuration. It will automatically discover the NHC controller on the LAN and populate other parameters with default value. If you want gomotics to connect to Jeedom, you can either edit a config file in TOML or set the parameters as env variables. More detailed information on the GitHub repository
