Nest Binding

[Neil Renaud]

Hi all,

I've create a new Nest binding for Nest Protect and Nest Thermostats.

This is an early stage of development so looking for some people to test it out.

A pre compiled release can be found here: https://github.com/foxy82/openhab/releases

With details of how to get started here: https://github.com/foxy82/openhab/wiki/Nest-Firebase-Binding

Any issues let me know.

Thanks,

Neil

And just so any who have been following my Nest binding development (which follows the Ecobee binding that will be part of 1.7), my binding will be available next week and appears to work very differently.  Its wiki is here.

Viva la difference!

Neil - tried to test your binding - the wiki page is not very clear - I don't see any instructions in openhab.log, which log should I look at?

this is what I see in openhab.log

2015-03-01 12:29:19.352 [INFO ] [.service.AbstractActiveService] - Nest Refresh Service has been started

2015-03-01 12:32:47.109 [INFO ] [n.i.NestGenericBindingProvider] - ConfigString[id=XXXN,type=NEST_CODE] ItemName[Nest_Code] Id[XXXN] Type[NEST_CODE]

2015-03-01 12:32:47.114 [INFO ] [n.i.NestGenericBindingProvider] - ConfigString[id=sfdfgdghfhgfgh,type=THERMOSTAT_CURRENT_TEMP] ItemName[Current_Temp] Id[sfdfgdghfhgfgh] Type[THERMOSTAT_CURRENT_TEMP]

Hi,

Sorry for the delay - it looks like Firebase changed their API so I've had to change the libs which are in the latest release on my github. 

If you search for NestBinding you should see more log lines.

In particular:

06:20:24.864 INFO  o.o.b.n.internal.NestBinding[:105]- Creating Nest API Binding for clientId[XXX] clientSecret[YYY]

06:20:24.864 INFO  o.o.b.n.internal.NestBinding[:106]- Binding started but not connected waiting for code from Nest website

06:20:24.866 INFO  o.o.b.n.internal.NestBinding[:108]- To get a code go to URL: https://home.nest.com/login/oauth2?client_id=XXX&state=STATE

06:20:24.866 INFO  o.o.b.n.internal.NestBinding[:109]- Then set the code state in Openhab

06:20:24.866 INFO  o.o.b.n.internal.NestBinding[:110]- Something like: http://localhost:8080/CMD?Nest_Code=<code>

06:20:24.866 INFO  o.o.b.n.internal.NestBinding[:111]- Where "NestCode" is the name of the Nest code type in your item file

06:20:24.944 INFO  o.o.c.s.AbstractActiveService[:169]- Nest Refresh Service has been started

That being said watou is out now as well and has been in development a lot longer than this months vs a handful of days so that might be stable.

In answer to your question mine doesn't use polling and doesn't store the code in the openhab.cfg file. As far as I know the code has to be changed every 2 days which is why I've gone with the approach of setting it as a variable in Openhab to make it easy to update (essentially what the instructions above are saying).

Hope that helps,

Neil
