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 )

SynTex UI

Control and set up your devices by installing homebridge-syntex
This plugin is made for plugin management, automation system and device control.

Check out the GitHub page for more information:
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 )


Automation

To enable the automation module you have to create a file named automation.json in your baseDirectory >> automation or install the homebridge-syntex plugin to create them via UI ( only between SynTex plugins )

Example: For manual configuration update your automation.json file. See snippet below.
