Access to localhost through myopenhab.org

Setup, Configuration and Use Beginners

I wanted to use

this

approach to add a webpage to my openHAB 3 user interface.

Is it possible to specify url’s of the raspberrypi running the openhab instance, and access it remotely through myopenhab.org?

For example

the logs: http://(raspberrypi-ip):9001
the zigbee to mqtt dashboard (running on the same machine): http://(raspberry-ip):8081

No, it’s not. The Cloud Server will only reverse proxy stuff served by openHAB itself, not other services, even those hosted on the same machine.

IC … So when the source URL is set to e.g. src: https://ventusky.com as in the example, the displaying machine will fetch the html directly from the source server, not via myopenhab?

Is there any other possibility to access openhab stuff (e.g. the logs) and/or stuff that sits on the openhab machine (like a zigbeemqtt or mosquitto server)? I mean, without opening up all the ports wide open?

Correct.

  • VPN: OpenVPN, Wireguard, Tailscale (Tailscale can work without opening any ports, the other two may require opening a port)

  • Setting up your own reverse proxy using Apache or ngnx (you’ll have to open ports for the reverse proxy of course)
