# Web App Site Control (WASC)
Web based GUI, using Node-RED, to control a Domoticz Home Automation System with connected hardware.
Part of the [Domoticz Home Automation Workbook](https://github.com/rwbl/domoticz-homeautomation-workbook) by the author.
### Purpose
To control the Domoticz Home Automation System, running on a Raspberry Pi 3B+, via a browser-based application (WebUI, built with Node-RED).
* Easy-to-use User Interface accesible from any device capable running a browser (smartphones, tablets, PC, SBC, TV)
* Control heating (HomematicIP) & lights (Philips Hue)
* Information only for weather data, key dates and status postbox
The goal has been to develop a Node-RED prototype first, i.e. workout the concept with initial functionality, to be able to enhance or modify the application further.
_This solution is also ment as a trigger for ideas or as a suggestion building an alternate GUI (WebUI) to access the Domoticz Homeautomation System._
The WebUI is translated into German.
**Screenshots**, from an Android device, with additional information of the various functions.
**Communication concept** with HTTP API requests between Node-RED and Domoticz.
_Note:_ Not all functions displayed.
### Notes
In the mean time, after having used the application for a while, it has become the _main application to access_ the (our) Domoticz Home Automation system from various devices.
The application is rather _tailer made_ and has ~100 nodes.
If want to use for own purposes, it will need a deep dive into the solution, which is based on Node-RED and JavaScript (used in the many function nodes).
The flows are commented, so recommend to checkout.
**Screenshot** of the various flows = just as an illustration. Read more in the PDF document.
It is not the intention to explain Node-RED in great detail.
Visit the [Node-RED website](https://nodered.org/) to explore more.
The author is also on a steep learning curve on how to develop Node-RED solutions.
This means, there might be better ways to accomplish a function, but so far this solution is working fine.
### Documentation
The PDF document **domoticz-webapp-sitecontrol.pdf** describes the solution and the concept.
The files starting with **wasc** contains the Node-RED flows & subflows (formatted). Use the Node-RED import function to import as new flow.
The solution is being _developed further_ but the PDF documentation might not be up-to-date. Check out the comments in the flows files.
### Software Versions
Linux: 4.19.66-v7+ #1253, Domoticz: 4.10717, Node-RED: 1.0.3 Node-RED Dashboard: 2.19.3
### Credits
To the developers of Domoticz and Node-RED and to all sharing related information.
Without these, it would not be possible to build this project and write the workbook.
