react-native-automationcomms v1.0.4

Introduction

The React Native UDP Control package provides a convenient interface for controlling lights and curtains via UDP sockets in React Native applications.

Installation

To install the package, use npm:

npm install react-native-automationcomms

Usage

Import the package into your React Native code:

import import {
  connect,
  controlCurtain,
  controlLight,
  disconnect,
  sendMessage,
} from 'react-native-automationcomms'; 

Functions

connect(server_ip, server_port, bindingPort)

Purpose: Establishes a connection to the server through a UDP socket.

• server_ip: The IP address of the host where the UDP socket should send the command.
• server_port: The port of the server.
• bindingPort (optional): The port to bind the socket to. Default value is 5000. Change this if you encounter connection errors.

connect({bindingPort: 5000, serverIP: '192.168.2.187', serverPort: 6000});

disconnect()

Purpose: Disconnects from the server. No parameters.

disconnect(); 

controlLight(channel, value, action, devID, subId)

Purpose: Controls the light (turn on or off) based on the parameters.

• channel: The channel ID.
• action: Either "on" or "off".
• value: Dimming -->The value of the bulb (0-100) if action is "on", or 0 if action is "off". Relay --> The value of the bulb 100 if action is "on", or 0 if action is "off".
• devID: The device ID.
• subId: The subnet ID.

controlLight({
      channelid: 333,
      value: 10,
      action: 'on' or 'off',
      DevId: 4,
      SubID: 16,
    });; 

controlCurtain(channel, action, devID, subId)

Purpose: Controls the curtain (stop, close, or open) based on the parameters.

• channel: The channel ID.
• action: Either "close", "stop", or "open".
• devID: The device ID.
• subId: The subnet ID.

  controlCurtain({
      channelid: 31,
      action: 'CLOSED',
      DevId: 12,
      SubID: 21,
    })

Notes

• Make sure to call connect() before using controlLight() or controlCurtain().
• Ensure that the server is configured to receive UDP packets on the specified IP address and port.
