phpMyDomo : a convenient OpenHab Web Interface

Hi there

A few year ago, I’ve developped phpMyDomo, a cool web interface for OpenHab and other home automation software .

PhpMyDomo is an open-source php Web Application aimed to provide a clean, robust, customizable, fast and intuitive interface to many Home Automation software, including OpenHab.

With todays chinese phones and tablets starting as low as $50, it becomes a cheap and powerfull way to build remotes to control anything smartly in your house. phpMyDomo wants to be the ultimate WebApp that works as well on these devices, as on any computer browser. phpMyDomo don’t aim to replace the cool domotic’s software you’re currently using, but rather to add a convenient web interface to it, especially on small devices like tablets and phones

Currently supported software include OpenHab, Domoticz, Domotiga and Domogik.

Features

  • Allow to Switch on/off any supported devices or scenes, from the Dashboard page
  • Support Dimmers and blinds commands
  • View all sensors at once, or per user defined groups
  • View all cameras on a single page
  • Display your photo library (iPhoto or folders) from a PhotoFrame like page
  • Launch “Actions” (ie Notifications) triggered by your HomeAutomation software (with a simple URL request). Current Actions include:
  • Email
  • Grow (Mac / WIndows notificationsl
  • NMA (Android notifications)
  • Prowl (IOS notifications)
  • Nabaztag
  • HTTP GET
  • XBMC (KODI) notifications
  • MySensors
  • Shell script (or any executable script : python, pel, php, etc…)
  • XPL
  • Responsive design : Display fine on any Android/IOS tablet, phone and any modern (HTML5) web browser
  • Multiple Skins, build your own easily
  • Multiples languages supported
  • Any Home Automation Software supported via Api Plugins
  • Easily customizable
  • Fast loading
  • Minimal server requirements : a php-enabled web server
  • Object oriented, MVC design : easily build your own custom pages, in minutes…
  • Free and Open Source
  • Highest WAF (Wife Acceptation Factor) possible

At the time when I launched PMD, there was not any forums at OpenHab.org, but after tweeting about it and posting in some HA forums, You’re already a few hundred OpenHab users using it daily (according to the website statistic)

BTW the current online demo which was linked to the public OpenHab demo site, is no longer working, but I guess it is just a matter of changing the URL and port of the public OpenHab API.

I’m looking for developers to help coding it, as well as users, to install, test and report… If enough people seems interested, I will do my best to make it evolve . If not I will just develop it for my own needs only.

If you’re interested, please go to the phpMyDomo web site to download it, or to view some screenshots.
And give me your feedback here.

Best regards,

I need a little help with installation on Ubuntu 15.10. I’m placing it into Apache, under /var/www/phpMyDomo and accessing it as http://192.168.10.77/phpMyDomo. I believe I followed all the directions, everything seems to be installed already, and PHP scripts already in /var/www/ work fine.

But all I get is:

The requested URL /phpMyDomo/home was not found on this server.

If I visit http://192.168.10.77/phpMyDomo/controller.php, it seems to load/configure the very first time, then finally it gives me a poorly formatted page which includes the error

Error 404 phpMyDomo_controller.php is not defined !

Any ideas?

Please check that you have REALLY copied the .htaccess file included in the distribution archive.
ie :
ls -la /var/www/phpMyDomo/

root@server:/var/www/phpMyDomo# ls -al
total 32
drwxr-xr-x  4 root root 4096 Jun  3 16:47 .
drwxr-xr-x  5 root root 4096 May 21 21:51 ..
-rw-rw-r--  1 root root   57 Mar 20 08:20 _boot.php
-rw-rw-r--  1 root root   69 Mar 20 08:20 controller.php
-rw-r--r--  1 root root  377 Jun  3 16:47 .htaccess
drwxrwxr-x 14 root root 4096 May 21 21:54 inc
-rw-rw-r--  1 root root  430 Mar 20 08:20 index.php
drwxrwxr-x  6 root root 4096 Mar 20 08:20 static
root@server:/var/www/phpMyDomo# cat .htaccess

Hi,

I have the same problem. Any solution till now?

10
  1. be sure that the apache rewrite module is loaded :

apache2ctl -t -D DUMP_MODULES | grep rewrite

  1. check that $conf[‘app’][‘dir’] is correctly set (and NOT commented) in phpMyDomo/www/inc/conf/config.php

HTH

Hi there

I’ve just released PMD v0.300 with some cool new features.

Unfortunately since the last release, OpenHab have changed their API from v1 to v2, which is totally incompatible with API v1 (which PMD was using)

As I’m not personally using OpenHab at home, It will certainly take a very long time until I would spend time updating the API client to the current v2.

But in the meantime, I’ve noticed on the PMD server statistics, that there are 13 PMD installed which are using a foreign “openhab2” client API : certainly someone who already updated the API client to match the new OH API…

So I (we all) would really appreciate if this person(s) would mind submitting a PR to Github of his own OpenHab2 API client. It would certainly be helpful for all the PMD users of OpenHab.

Also anyone wanting to create a new Openhab2 API client is welcome : this is not really difficult assuming you have a working OpenHab v2 installation at home to test.

Thank you

Sounds like your webserver is not configured correctly…
