ioBroker.tradfri

Requirements

• Linux (e.g. Raspberry Pi) / OSX / Windows
• NodeJS >= 12.x
• Trådfri gateway

Installation

1. Install this adapter over the iobroker admin GUI or via npm install iobroker.tradfri --production
2. In the ioBroker GUI, add an adapter instance.
3. Configure the instance by entering the IP/hostname of your gateway and the security code that can be found on the label at the bottom.

Troubleshooting installation issues:

Linux/OSX:

Make sure you install the most recent released version. If there are compilation errors, you might have to install build-essential:

apt-get -y install build-essential

Windows:

If you are running on older NodeJS versions (< 10), the installation may fail with the following error somewhere in the log:

Can't find Python executable "python", you can set the PYTHON env variable.

To solve it, open an administrative shell:

1. Press the ⊞ Windows key
2. Enter cmd, press Ctrl + Shift + Enter
3. Confirm the UAC prompt and run the following command:

npm install --add-python-to-path --global windows-build-tools

This may take a while... afterwards the installation should succeed.

Sending custom CoAP packets

You can send custom CoAP packets from other adapters by using sendTo. Example from JavaScript:

sendTo("tradfri.0", "request", options, (ret) => {
	// do something with the result
});

The options object looks as follows:

{
	path: string,
	method?: "get" | "post" | "put" | "delete", // optional, default = "get"
	payload?: object                            // optional, should be a JSON object
}

The result object ret looks as follows:

{
	error: string | null,
	result: {
		code: string,            // see https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7252#section-12.1.2
		payload: object | Buffer
	}
}
