node-red-contrib-hs100

This Node-RED node is for controlling tp-link Wi-Fi Smart Plug - Model HS100 (and HS110).

This node has only been tested with a HS100(UK). The HS100 is also available in US and EU plug versions. We expect they will work too.

This node simply wraps the excellent work here https://github.com/czjs2/hs100-api.

Installation

Change directory to your node red installation:

$ npm install node-red-contrib-hs100

Alternatively, use the Palette Manager in Node-RED.

Configuration

Drag this node on to a worksheet and double click it. Enter the IP address of the plug on your network. Save and deploy.

Dynamic configuration of IP address

Alternatively you can dynamically set the IP address of the plug. To do this set the message property 'hs100_address' to the address of the plug that you wish to control.

Actuations

This node supports a number of actuations that are invoked by sending a msg.topic or msg.payload to the node's input.

Topic/Payload	Description
on	To turn the HS100 on.
off	To turn the HS100 off.
info	Get all plug info, combination of sysinfo, cloudinfo consumption, schedulenextaction
sysinfo	Get general plug information.
cloudinfo	Get TP-Link Cloud information.
consumption	Get power consumption data
powerstate	Returns true if plug is on.
schedulenextaction

Obtain power consumption data

The HS100 is a simple switch and does not support consumption. The HS110 includes the power consumption feature.

I have been told that the power consumption feature is working with the Australian version of the HS110.

I don't have an HS110 to test with though.

To obtain the power consumption, send a message to this node's input with the topic or payload set to consumption. The consumption data will be sent via this node's output in msg.payload.
