PLEASE READ ME FIRST!
=====================

This driver is no longer being maintained. Please check out the [ninja-allone][1] driver which incorporates the ninja-orvibo code and now supports the Orvibo AllOne IR blaster, plus the Orvibo S10 and S20 sockets

ninja-orvibo
============

A driver for the Ninja Blocks that controls Orvibo Wi-Fi Smart Sockets.

Getting started
===============

To install this driver, SSH into your block, go to the location of your Ninja Block drivers (on Raspbian, this will be /opt/ninjablocks/block-client/drivers/) and run:

`git clone http://github.com/Grayda/ninja-orvibo && cd ninja-orvibo && npm install && restartninja`

Refresh your dashboard page and after a few seconds, any detected sockets should appear on the page. New sockets are auto-discovered every minute

If you're after more technical details, check out http://pastebin.com/LfUhsbcS

Emulator
========

This version of the socket comes with an emulator designed to allow you to test as many sockets as you like on the dashboard or in the SmartPoint app. To use it, open up ./tests/emulatorTest.js and add or remove lines from the `o.push` section as necessary. After that, run `node ./tests/emulatorTest.js` (preferably on another device) and refresh your dashboard. You should now see all your test sockets there and can toggle them, use them in rules etc., though you can't turn anything on or off, of course.

After you're done playing with the emulator, you'll need to manually remove the test devices from your dashboard.

NOTE: This emulator works with the SmartPoint app, but is still in beta. Stuff like changing the name or icon of the socket is not supported (nothing will happen).

Feedback
========

This is a beta driver. It has been built and tested against the smart socket by Bauhn (which is the Orvibo S10 smart socket, I believe). I'm looking for people who have different types of Orvibo Wi-Fi smart sockets to test this and report back. Packet captures (via TCPdump or Wireshark) definitely most welcome

To-Do:
======

* Add comments to the emulator
* ~~Fix up the emulator so it'll work with SmartPoint (90% done)~~
* ~~Test this with more than one socket~~
* ~~Actually get this to run~~
* ~~Make it more robust so it doesn't accidentally detect the SmartPoint app as a socket (a bug in the SP app, perhaps?)~~
* ~~Fix up the options so you can modify the settings instead of it recreating them each time~~ No longer needed
* ~~Maybe: Make this a truly automatic setup. Set it up in the SP app, then the Ninja driver will detect the MAC address and stuff~~
* ~~Rewrite parts (most?) of this code so you can control more than one socket. Pull requests DEFINITELY welcome on this part!~~
* ~~Add the ability to read the state of the device without turning it on or off~~
* ~~Modify sockettest.js to provide more details about the socket and where stuff is failing~~

Thanks to:
==========

* Nozza87 on the Ninja Blocks forum for taking my basic code and making it run, and for doing the hard work in reverse-engineering the protocol
* mlava for initial research on the manufacturer, plus data sheets of the socket 
* dsrc12 for testing this driver and providing valuable feedback and feature suggestions

Supporting development
======================

I was born and raised on the open source software movement. If you like what I do, consider donating code, hardware or a few bucks to cover costs. PayPal donations welcome at grayda [a@t] solidinc [dot.org], code forks and pull requests most welcome and if you have an Orvibo S20 / WIWO socket, please try this code and donate Wireshark files if you can
