StateReport facilitates querying the state of doors, windows, lights, appliances, thermostats, meters and timers in a Domoticz Home Automation system.
It does *not* allow you to control or change any setting in Domoticz !
Most commands can be either generally or specifically applied, so you can ask 'What windows are open?' for a list of all currently-open windows, or ask 'Is the Bedroom Window open?' for specificity.
The skill's responses augment basic state information when relevant/useful:
* If a dimmable Light is ON then its current dimming-percentage is mentioned. * If an Appliance (such as a washing machine) is ON then the 'last seen' timestamp is subtracted from the current server time to tell you how long it has already been on for. * If a timer with random-switching is queried, the resultant switching-time for today will be reported. * For zoned thermostats you will be told what zone(s) are 'calling for heat' (defined as setpoint > current/actual temperature). * For zoned thermostats, setpoint/actual temperatures are mentioned, together with the controller-mode and whether an 'until' time was specified for any schedule overrides. * Zoned thermostat queries report the current coolest and warmest rooms in the house together with their actual temperatures.
Some examples of things you can ask StateReport:
What lights are on? Is the Bedroom Light on? Is the Kitchen Light off? What's the Corner Light dimming level? What's the Reading Light level?
What appliances are on? Is the Washing Machine on? Is the Dishwasher off?
What doors are open? Is the Garage Door open? Is the Patio Door closed?
What windows are open? Is the Bedroom Window open? Is the Bathroom Window closed?

Prerequisites: To use the skill, you will need to have a self-hosted instance of Domoticz. StateReport *requires* account-linking to pick up your Domoticz URL and authorization credentials. An installer is available to prepare Domoticz for cloud-access (it also performs App-to-App account linking). Note that neither a VPN nor the 'my.domoticz.com' service are acceptable transports!
