Notification when status of light changes #17
Comments
Hi @sanderisbestok, As far as I know the CoAP protocol isn't a protocol for providing a realtime connection. What I mean by that is that when you do a request a connection gets setup between you and the gateway, a message is send to the gateway and after that a response is send back over the same connection. At this point the connection will close since that completes the call. When looking at de decompiled app from IKEA I can't find any reference to a sort of 'live' connection between the app and the gateway. No it is possible i'm missing something since the decompiling process isn't great and searching for code is sometimes impossible. I think that polling or pinging the gateway is at this moment the best sollution. Of course if anyone finds something useful that could implement a way of getting real time data i'm always up for suggestions. |
Hi @glenndehaan, Thanks, I will try to decompile the app I used to see if anything interesting happens over there. Is there a maximum of pings you can do to the tradfri device in a certain amount of time? |
I don't believe there is any sort of request limit or at least I have not run into one yet. |
Hi,
Is there a way to get "notified" when the status (scene, on/of, dimmer) of a lightbulb change. Or is it necessary to constantly ask the endpoint what the status is?
Want to use this on my smart mirror to display the light status, I have seen some apps where it updates almost immediately after you press the hardware IKEA button.
