Getting data from Philips Hue Outdoor Motion Sensor

[pioneersteffen]

Hi,

funny thing I just started working on the same topic today. :-)

I got it working for the motion state:

1.) Add the following code to the hue user library script:

Code:

-- function get data from sensors function getHueSensors()   local response = {}   body_searchHueSensors= ''   -- Set username for LogicMachine   socket.http.request({   url = "http://"..ip_add.."/api/"..user.."/sensors",   method = 'GET',         sink = ltn12.sink.table(response),   headers = {           ['content-length'] = #body_searchHueSensors,           ['content-type'] = 'application/json',   },           source = ltn12.source.string(body_searchHueSensors),   })   return response end

2.) Implement a resident script (example for motion):

Code:

addressmapping = {   -- Name                  -- Presence FB          ['Hue motion 1'] = {state = '47/2/6', statevalue = ''}, } -- Use logging logging = true require('user.hue') require('json')   reply = getHueSensors()   mysensors = json.pdecode(reply[1])   for _, item in pairs(mysensors) do     -- Check if sensor is found by bridge otherwise it make no sense to send commands     if item.config.reachable == true then       -- On/Off       name = addressmapping[item.name]       if name then         addr = addressmapping[item.name]['state']         if addr and addr ~= '' then           currentvalue = addressmapping[item.name]['statevalue']           if currentvalue ~= item.state.presence then             grp.update(addr, item.state.presence)             addressmapping[item.name]['statevalue'] = item.state.presence             if logging == true then               log('sensor ' .. item.name .. ' state is: ' .. tostring(item.state.presence))             end           end         end       end      end   end

If you want to have the temperature just looking for the name inside the json e.g. = Hue outdoors temp. sensor 1" and change: "item.state.presence" to "item.state.temperature". This is working I tested it. Due to I just want to have the motion state I didn't implemented it.

To get the json "readable" I used: https://jsonformatter.org/json-parser

I hope this is helping you.

Best Regards
Steffen
