HTTP Commands for SIP

[dan]

I have added a PDF file to the SIP wiki that lists the HTTP GET commands for controlling SIP.

The file can be downloaded at:

How can I get information about the state of sprinkler other than simply on/off.  In particular, how much time before the sprinkler will be turned off?
Thanks,

try [sip url]/api/status
look for "remaining:" it will give you the time remaining in seconds.

Dan,

Just what I need.  Maybe you should add that to the SIP GET document...

Thanks,

Similarly, is there a way to get the status of the system such as enabled/disabled, manual mode, etc.?

Thanks,

Not via http.

you would need to access the Python code for most of the internal status.
See the file gv_reference.txt in the SIP directory for a full list.

Actually, after giving this a little more thought, you might be able to use the output from the mobile_app plugin. It outputs most of SIP's current status in json format. Or you might be able to modify the code and create a plugin that can provide whatever data you need.

Thanks!  The mobile_app plugin hits the spot...

When I try to run http://127.0.0.1/sn I get the status of the stations.  However when I try to run a python program that accesses the same url all I am getting back is what appears to be the page source from the login page... ???

It sounds like it is looking for the login password.

You can try adding the password to the query string (?pw=xxx) or disabling the password from the Options page under "Change password" check the "disable security" box. SIP's password is not very secure anyway.
