This is a presence detection scanner for OpenWrt using [luci](https://openwrt.org/docs/techref/luci).
Before this scanner can be used you have to install the luci RPC package on OpenWrt:
```bash
# opkg install luci-mod-rpc
```
To use this device tracker in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
device_tracker:
- platform: luci
host: ROUTER_IP_ADDRESS
username: YOUR_ADMIN_USERNAME
password: YOUR_ADMIN_PASSWORD
```
{% configuration %}
host:
description: The hostname or IP address of your router, e.g., `192.168.1.1`.
required: true
type: string
username:
description: The username of a user with administrative privileges, usually `admin`.
required: true
type: string
password:
description: The password for your given admin account.
required: true
type: string
ssl:
description: If your router enforces SSL connections, set to `true`.
required: false
default: false
type: boolean
verify_ssl:
description: If SSL/TLS verification for HTTPS resources needs to be turned off (for self-signed certs, etc.)
required: false
type: boolean
default: true
{% endconfiguration %}
See the [device tracker integration page](/integrations/device_tracker/) for instructions how to configure the people to be tracked.
This device tracker provides a number of additional attributes for each tracked device (if it is at home): `flags`, `ip`, `device`, and `host`. The first three attributes are taken from the ARP table returned by the luci RPC. The `host` attribute is taken from the platform configuration and can be used to distinguish in which router a device is logged in, if you are using multiple OpenWrt routers.
<div class='note warning'>
Some installations have [a small bug](https://github.com/openwrt/luci/issues/576). The timeout for luci RPC calls is not set and this makes the call fail.
If you want to locally fix your OpenWrt installation, you can apply the change manually to `/usr/lib/lua/luci/controller/rpc.lua`, or simply set a fixed timeout. The default is 3600.
