Make selected Loxone virtual inputs securely available to any service that can send http requests.
Loxwebhook is in early development but it works stable for me without major issues like crashing service or messed up request. There are still some essential features missing so expect bigger changes that might change the request path, token handling or config values. All changes will be documented in the change log.
- HTTPS encryption (LetsEncrypt)
- Token authorization
The Loxone Miniserver is able to accept http requests and many services are able to send them. This would be a nice, flexible and de facto standard way to connect different services to the Miniserver. Unfortunately, due to limited hardware ressources, the Miniserver only supports http basic auth over unencrypted connections and a quite complicated "hand crafted" encryption that no service I know supports.
Loxwebhook runs on a seperate server (a very low level device like a Raspberry Pi is more than sufficient) to offload the http encryption, protect the Miniserver against DOS attacks (Rate limit the requests) and adds an authentication layer based on tokens to authorize request.
