Instruction to integrate the Daikin device into Node-RED

  1. Addition in the settings

After installing Node-RED we add a line in the settings file to make Node-RED include the daikin-controller library. The directory of Node-RED is located in our home directory during standard installation.

cd ~/.node-red
nano settings.js

we search [Strg] + [W] for the following entry functionGlobalContext: { and add DaikinAC:require("daikin-controller") should look like the following:

    ...
    functionGlobalContext: {
        DaikinAC:require("daikin-controller")
        // os:require('os'),
        // jfive:require("johnny-five"),
        // j5board:require("johnny-five").Board({repl:false})
    },
    ...

We save the changes [Strg] + [O] and leave the editor [Strg] + [X].

  1. Installing the daikin-controller

The library is installed via npm:

cd ~/.node-red
npm install daikin-controller

Start (or restart) Node-RED.

  1. Add the test flow

In Node-RED we add the content of the file Testflow-Daikin_node-red.json via Import Nodes. A new flow is recommended, but can also be added to an existing one. The IP address of the Daikin device belongs to the "Global set: DaikinDeviceIP". Screenshot_flow
