Sample of HTTP GET Switch (On/Off) Device Handler with polling capabilities?

[cdemi (Christopher Demicoli)]

Hi all,

I am trying to write my first device handler.

I have an API Endpoint which I can use to turn on and off a monitor and another endpoint to get the current status of the monitor.

Does anyone have something similar ready that I can use to start my device handler on?

[OBSOLETE] URI Switch -- Device Handler for controlling items via HTTP calls

I’ve switched from X10 to ZWave but still have a handful of X10 devices that needed control. I installed Home Genie on a Raspberry Pi which gives me control of my devices via an HTTP call and I wanted a way to control this with SmartThings. With the help of @tguerena we’ve come up with URI Switch. URI Switch is a Device Handler that when attached to a Virtual Switch, kicks off a URL (External or Internal) when an On/Off command is sent Please refer to the following for instructions and usage information http://thingsthataresmart.wiki/index.php?title=URI_Switch While this was created for sending ON / OFF commands for my X10 devices, the ON / OFF commands could be a call to anything that takes a URI to control. Please let us know how this works for you and let us know what we can add…

[RELEASE] Honeywell HPA250B Air Purifier integration (through Raspberry Pi)

hi there, I am publishing the integration I made with a Raspberry Pi to command my Honeywell HPA250B which is originally a BT-LE remote controlled with a (bad) smartphone app. This integration is based on a protocol I defined over HTTP between the raspberry and SmartThings device handler. When a command is sent from the DTH to the Pi, a python script parse the requests, sends the needed BT-LE command to the Air Purifier and return the notification it receives as a JSON to the DTH. The DTH refreshes upon polling (use Pollster) of the notifications in case you use the purifier controls directly. Either on the next refresh polled or the next command sent by the DTH, the status will be updated on the DTH screen. The DTH implements the controls of the HPA250B except their (bad) app allergy a…
