Some useful examples of api calls in openhab 3. Read and write to items using curl shell command directly from raspberrypi, using a software like #postman or creating a real custom html interface which read the item state and send commands to it.

A simple example of push notifications using the openhab 3 api, writing a simple html page on raspberrypi 4 which display items information with autorefresh feature, with no user action

HTTP binding, an example to manage system integration in openhab 3 on a raspberrypi 4, using http calls towards external services

Let’s go back to mqtt; this time we use the transformation services of openhab 3 to send a custom json #payload as a command to an external device, not directly compatible with the native commands of openhab. In this particular case we’ll try to control the brightness of a shelly dimmer through a slider managed by openhab, installed on a raspberrypi 4. The same thing can be done with other devices, such as sonoff with tasmota or esp 8266 board with custom firmware or others compatible with mqtt

This time we talk about gpio of our beloved raspberrypi. In particular, let’s see how openhab can integrate sensors and actuators connected to the raspberry; since version 3.1 of openhab the new gpio binding is available which allows you to configure things, channels and items to interact with the raspberry GPIOs even remotely
openhab3
A pratical example about gpio binding. Linking a RGB led to a raspberrypi via GPIO and power it up using python and then using a sitemap of openhab 3
openhab3
Another pratical example about gpio binding, using an input device. Linking a magnetic contact to a raspberrypi via gpio to get its state through openhab 3 and using it in our smart home routine
openhab3
We complete the gpio binding tests started with the previous videos, putting together INPUT and OUTPUT devices connected to the raspberrypi GPIO using the openhab 3 rules. In the specific case we use a magnetic contact as INPUT and a rgb led as output. When the magnetic contact opens/closes, the RGB LED turns on/off

Setup for google home integration, linking our local openhab system on raspberrypi to the cloud and let google home app to integrate items. Our system is ready for voice command and remote interaction
openhab3
Final part of my tests for integrating openhab 3 with googlehome. We insert a button to control a light and a thermostat to detect the temperature and humidity of a room by interacting with the google home app and with our voice by checking the “reaction” on openhab

This time we speak about amazon alexa and its integration with openhab 3 on raspberrypi 4. Take control of openhab items via alexa app, echo #dot devices and voice control

I discovered the profiles feature of openhab 3. They are very useful. Till now I ignored them but now I thing I will use them in many use cases.

How to manage historical data of openhab with influxdb running via docker and portainer on a raspberrypi…Using #retentionpolicy and #continuousquery to keep table small, aggregating data on higher timeframe…all performed automatically
openhab3
Always influxdb running via docker and portainer on a raspberrypi, used as persistence engine for openhab…This time we try to customize the table name where items data will be stored; then we add custom tags to be used as filter parameters in select query openhab3

custom push notifications managed via rules by openhab running on a raspberrypi. In this first part let’s build a simple alarm gas detector as example of push notification towards mobile devices with openhab official app
Thanks for sharing the knowledge. I have not seen all your videos on OH3 yet, but I will surely do. Struggling as a beginner to get some things configured, and learned a lot with you
