REST API#

All the API’s use a key called ID which is the unique device id (chip id). This is used as an API key when sending requests to the device.

GET: /api/config#

Retrive the current configuation of the device via an HTTP GET command. Payload is in JSON format.

  • temp-format can be either C or F

  • gravity-format is always G (plato is not yet supported)

  • ble is used to enable ble data transmission (only on esp32) simulating a tilt. Valid color names are; red, green, black, purple, orange, blue, yellow, pink

Other parameters are the same as in the configuration guide.

GET: /api/clearwifi#

Will reset the wifi settings both in the configuration file and eeprom, leaving the rest of the configuration.

For this to work you will need to supply the device id as a parameter in the request:

http://mygravity.local/api/clearwifi?id=<mydeviceid>

GET: /api/factory#

Will do a reset to factory defaults and delete all data except wifi settings.

For this to work you will need to supply the device id as a parameter in the request:

http://mygravity.local/api/factory?id=<mydeviceid>

GET: /api/test/push#

Trigger a push on one of the targets, used to validate the configuration from the UI.

Requires to parameters to function /api/test/push?id=<deviceid>&format=<format>

  • format defines which endpoint to test, valid values are; http-1, http-2, brewfather, influxdb, mqtt

The response is an json message with the following values.

  • code is the return code from the push function, typically http responsecode or error code from mqtt library.

{
   "success": false,
   "enabled": true,
   "code": -3
}

POST: /api/config/device#

Used to update device settings via an HTTP POST command.

Payload should be in standard format used for posting a form. Such as as: id=value&mdns=value etc. Key value pairs are shown below.

POST: /api/config/gravity#

Used to update gravity settings via an HTTP POST command. Payload is in JSON format.

Calling the API’s from Python#

Here is some example code for how to access the API’s from a python script. Keys should always be present or the API call will fail.

The requests package converts the json to standard form post format.

import requests
import json

host = "192.168.1.1"           # IP adress (or name) of the device to send these settings to
id = "ee1bfc"                  # Device ID (shown in serial console during startup or in UI)

def set_config( url, json ):
   headers = { "ContentType": "application/json" }
   print( url )
   resp = requests.post( url, headers=headers, data=json )
   if resp.status_code != 200 :
      print ( "Failed "  )
   else :
      print ( "Success "  )
