The arest switch platform allows you to toggle pins of your devices (like Arduino boards with a ethernet/wifi connection, the ESP8266, and the Raspberry Pi) running the [aREST](http://arest.io/) RESTful framework.
|
||||
|
||||
To use your aREST enabled device in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
||||
switch:
|
||||
platform: arest
|
||||
resource: http://IP_ADDRESS
|
||||
pins:
|
||||
11:
|
||||
name: Fan Office
|
||||
12:
|
||||
name: Light Desk
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration variables:
|
||||
|
||||
- **resource** (*Required*): IP address and schema of the device that is exposing an aREST API, e.g. http://192.168.1.10.
|
||||
- **pins** (*Required*): An array with all used pins of your board.
|
||||
- **name** (*Required*): The name of the variable you wish to monitor.
|
||||
|
||||
Accessing one of the endpoints (eg. http://192.168.1.10/analog/2/) will give you a JSON response. The interesting part is `return_value` which represents the sensor's data.
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{"return_value": 34, "id": "sensor02", "name": "livingroom", "connected": true}
|
||||
```
