Tests:: 

This Adapter interacts with the OpenWrt RPC API of a OpenWrt-Device (Router, Switch, AccessPoint, RaspberryPI, etc.).

Reading data from ubus to ioBroker-Objects:
At the moment only the "ubus call" results are fetched. With that commands you should get the most data out of the router.
The json-results are parsed and written to the objects database, see here [ubus]

Setting data with ubus from ioBroker to OpenWrt:
You can send Commands to the router over the API with the State-Object "sendCommand".
Put in the command you want to send to the router, the result will be written as JSON-Object to the "sendCommandLastResult" Object and the "sendCommand"-Object will be cleared.

Setup and Check API on Target-Device

$3

To enable the API, install the following package and restart uhttpd:

``bash
opkg install luci-mod-rpc
/etc/init.d/uhttpd restart
`

Source: HowTo at the official OpenWrt-Github-Repo

$3


To check that the API ist working fine, just navigate to this url with your webbrowser:
`bash
http://[TargetDeviceIPorHostname]/cgi-bin/luci/rpc/auth
`

If you get something like this, the API is successfully installed:

`bash
{"id":null,"error":{"message":"Parse error.","code":-32700},"jsonrpc":"2.0"}
``
> Side-Note: The URL-Check on the "admin"-Page checks for "jsonrpc" text in response

Usage

- Type the URL, Username and Password (same as the SSH/Webinterface) in the admin page

- If everything works fine, you will see the new Objects:

- Get more Data with specific ubus call-commands, check this out

Troubleshooting

If there is something wrong, you can check the communication at the admin-panel.

First the URL should be "OK", test it with the "Check URL"-Button.

Second the Authentication with user/pass can be tested with the "Check Auth"-Button.

If there are some error's the button will get red, look at the ioBroker-Logs for more informations .
