    Is getting rid of all the problems not Athoms first priority?
    I'm glad i can use homey at his full potential.

    Has someone started an app-like solution yet (maybe temporarily until its native supported by Athom)? I'm looking for a next project  .

    Perhaps Athom should port Domoticz to Homey and focus on the hardware and drivers? They could even help building Domoticz. It's just like the Raspberry and KODI. Homey and Domoticz, sounds good! Ok, ok, just a (serious) thought.

    I still hope someone will make an app to control Domoticz via Homey. For now now I'm stuck, because http get request doesn't work.

    Doesn't Domoticz work with json? Did you read this? https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Domoticz_API/JSON_URL's

    Yup, I already use the HTTP app of Homey to communicate with Domoticz on my NAS. If Homey does not improve stability in the zwave area any time soon I will buy a zwave stick and just use voice command to trigger a flow that communicates with Domoticz to get the stuff done.  :wink:

    Domoticz is not the problem, but the Homey. The HTTP connector app does,t work at the moment. The dev is working to fix this problem.
    and it's a shame there's no Eneco Toon yet.

    The http app is not broken, but authorization is required. Yesterday I submitted a new version with a settings screen where you can disable this authorization. You can get it from github and install by the athom cli.

    When will the app be in the app store? That'll be the easiest way I think.

    @HansieNL: usually within a few days.

    Is there a good description how to install from the Athom cli?
    If I once know how to use it I can use it for future installations.
    Do I need to use Linux terminal or Putty? Do I need to use SCP?
    Do I need to register as Homey dev?
  • bvdbosbvdbos Member
    No, you don't. All the info is on: http://developer.athom.com/library/getting-started/

    Installed Node.JS, logged in the Homey.
    Downloaded the Simple HTTP Connector For Flows package zipped from Github.
    Unpacked HTTP Connector For Flows package zipped and renamed the folder to com.internet (in drive R:).
    Run command: athom com.internet --run in the root of drive R:
    How do I know if the app is running and how do I install? Sorry for a lot of questions, but I try to understand how thing works.
  • DaneeDeKruyffDaneeDeKruyff Member
    Project is the actual command, don't replace it with the project name.
    navigate to the 'root' folder of the app and just type: athom project --run 
  • RocodamelsheRocodamelshe Member
    I always do "athom project --install" when installing a project from git

    OK thx. Got it installed and learned a lot today.
  • RobinVanKekemRobinVanKekem Member
    --run is for debugging the app and will most likely uninstall when the session is disconnected.
    Use --install if you want to install

    could you share that file :) 

  • HansieNLHansieNL Member

    could you share that file  

    Check Node.js version on Homey:
    Settings - System - Show Stuff for geeks - node_version

    Install Node.js:
    Download Node.js (Homey's version) from https://nodejs.org/en/ and install it on your PC.

    Download App.ZIP from GitHub (https://github.com/...)  to your PC:
    Click "Download ZIP"

    Unpack ZIP:
    Unpack App.ZIP on your PC

    Open Node.js command prompt, and install the athom-cli tools:
    npm install -g athom-cli

    On the command prompt, log in to your Homey:
    athom login

    Navigate to the 'root' folder of the App on your PC

    For running project:
    athom project --run

    For installing project:
    athom project --run

    Thanks HansieNL, but to be honest I feel to much of a noob to actually do this (as i dont even know how to download the file in command and into homey ;)) - i will wait the couple of days till its in the app store again ;) thank you though!

    1. Check my changed description above. I've put it in a more logical step.
    2. You have to download to your PC and Unzip it there. And from within Node.js command-line you have to navigate to the root of the unzipped app.

    okay that was indeed relatively simple. after installing node.js and download the github stuff and unzip it to an to find location and then its basically the following:

    You're welcome and you well done

    Regarding this topic, as well as in general (uploading other apps through athom-cli) is it possible to do this remotely? Without being on the same network?

    Really dissapointed with homey, it's nice if you can program everything yourself, if not it's just pretty useless, I have it standing there for almost a year without use, if there would be an interface with floorplan I would start using it, until then I use domoticz. I don't like talking to electronics, so I really could care less if the voice support gets better or not. I just want to be able to handle everything from my tablet on the wall, of course I can search for the right switch in the right group, but for anyone not really understanding all that, it would be very easy to just use a lightbutton on a map of the kitchen or livingroom. Also a shame that still there is no support for Satel alarms, that's second reason I still keep using Domoticz...hope floorplans will be added soon, I think it would make a lot of people happy...and I guess it would also make homey more publicly accessible instead of only for geeks
