A simple plugin to control and to create HTTP devices.<br>
This plugin is made to cooperate with Homebridge: https://github.com/nfarina/homebridge<br>
It stores accessory data you can request to display the content on your website / app.
## Core Features
- **Device Control:** Create virtual accessory for your Homebridge.
- **HTTP Access:** Update and read device states via HTTP calls.
- **Automation:** We integrated our powerful automation API for fast and complex automation.
## Troubleshooting

## Installation
1. Install homebridge using: `sudo npm install -g homebridge`
2. Install this plugin using: `sudo npm install -g homebridge-syntex-webhooks`
3. Update your `config.json` file. See snippet below.
4. Restart the Homebridge Service with: `sudo systemctl restart homebridge; sudo journalctl -fau homebridge`
## Example Config
**Info:** If the `baseDirectory` for the storage can't be created you have to do it by yourself and give it full write permissions!
- `sudo mkdir -p /var/homebridge/SynTex/` *( create the directory )*
- `sudo chmod -R 777 /var/homebridge/SynTex/` *( permissions for many processes )*
- `sudo chown -R homebridge /var/homebridge/SynTex/` *( permissions only for homebridge )*

### Required Parameters
- `platform` is always `SynTexWebHooks`
- `baseDirectory` The path where cache data is stored.
- `accessories` For the accessory config.
### Optional Parameters
- `port` To control your accessory over HTTP calls.
- `language` You can use your country initials if you want to change it *( Currently supported: `us`, `en`, `de` )*
### Log Parameters
- Disable certain log level: `error`, `warn`, `info`, `read`, `update`, `success` and `debug` *( for example `debug: false` )*
### Accessory Config
- Every accessory needs these parameters: `id`, `name` and `services` *( required )*
- `id` has to be either a `real mac address` or another `random unique text` *( no duplicates! )*
- `name` could be anything.
- `services` The services of your accessory.<br><br>
- `name` could be anything.
- `type` Define the service type *( `airquality`, `blind`, `contact`, `dimmer`, `humidity`, `leak`, `led`, `light`, `motion`, `occupancy`, `outlet`, `rain`, `relais`, `rgb`, `smoke`, `statelessswitch`, `switch`, `temperature` )*
- For Boolean Devices you can add `requests` *( trigger can be: on, off, color )*
- For RGB Lights you can add `spectrum` attribute *( to convert to the right output format: RGB / HSL )*
- For Stateless Switches you have to add `buttons` attribute.<br><br>
- `pingURL` check the device connection.

## SynTex UI
Control and set up your devices by installing `homebridge-syntex`<br>
This plugin is made for plugin management, automation system and device control.<br><br>
Check out the GitHub page for more information:<br>
https://github.com/SynTexDZN/homebridge-syntex
## Update WebHooks Device
1. Open `http://` **Bridge IP** `/devices?id=` **Device ID** `&value=` **New Value**
2. Insert the `Bridge IP` and `Device ID`
3. For the `New Value` you can type this pattern:
- For boolean devices: `true` / `false` *( contact, leak, motion, occupancy, outlet, rain, smoke, switch )*
- For numeric devices: `10` / `12.4` *( airquality, blind, humidity, light, temperature )*
- For all light bulbs: `true` / `false` *( dimmer, led, rgb )*
- For dimmable and colored lights add `&brightness=` **New Brightness** *( has to be a number )*
- For colored lights add `&hue=` **New Hue** *( has to be a number )*
- For colored lights add `&saturation=` **New Saturation** *( has to be a number )*
- For accessories with multiple service types add `&type=` **SERVICETYPE**
- For accessories with multiple services with more than one of the same service type add `&counter=` **SERVICENUMBER**\
*( First of that type = 0, second = 1 .. )*
**Example:** `http://homebridge.local:1710/devices?id=ABCDEF1234567890&type=light&counter=0&value=20.5`\
*( Updates the value of `ABCDEF1234567890` to `20.5 LUX` for example )*
## Read WebHooks Device
1. Open `http://` **Bridge IP** `/devices?id=` **Device ID**
2. Insert the `Bridge IP` and `Device ID`
- For accessories with multiple service types add `&type=` **SERVICETYPE**
- For accessories with multiple services with more than one of the same service type add `&counter=` **SERVICENUMBER**\
*( First of that type = 0, second = 1 .. )*
**Example:** `http://homebridge.local:1714/devices?id=ABCDEF1234567890`\
*( Reads the state of `ABCDEF1234567890` for example )*
## Remove WebHooks Device
1. Open `http://` **Bridge IP** `/devices?id=` **Device ID** `&remove=CONFIRM`
2. Insert the `Bridge IP` and `Device ID`
- To remove a specific service add `&type=` **SERVICETYPE**
- To remove a specific service from an accessory with more than one of the same service type add `&counter=` **SERVICENUMBER**\
*( First of that type = 0, second = 1 .. )*
**Example:** `http://homebridge.local:1710/devices?id=ABCDEF1234567890&remove=CONFIRM`\
*( Removes `ABCDEF1234567890` from the Config and Home App )*
