node-red-contrib-sonoff-lan-mode

Node-RED nodes to communicate with Sonoff Smart Switch devices on LAN.

No need for API keys, nor eWeLink cloud connection. The only requirement is to have Node-RED in the same network where Sonoff devices are installed.

Install

You can install this node directly from the "Manage Palette" menu in the Node-RED interface.

Alternatively, run the following command in your Node-RED user directory - typically ~/.node-red on Linux or %HOMEPATH%.nodered on Windows

npm install node-red-contrib-sonoff-lan-mode

Usage

Define a Sonoff configuration node, setting Host (IP Address) and port (defaults to 8081).
Then use one of the following nodes to interact with your Sonoff device.

sonoff-lan-listener

A node that subscribes to events from Sonoff

sonoff-lan-control

A node that controls the Sonoff switch

Accepts an input msg.payload with content "on" to turn on the Sonoff switch, and "off" to turn it off.

Supported devices

The library has only been tested on Sonoff Basic switch.
