Velux protocol

Documented in velux-protocol.md.

OpenHab integration using exec plugin

Can be found in openhab.md file.

The current OpenHab netatmo binding might be able to use the reading from GetMeasure but it does not allow to override the API endpoint so I could not try.

There is currently no OpenHab binding since it would require disclosing client secret and client id reverse engineered by Android App. More details at https://community.openhab.org/t/connecting-velux-active-kix-300/75696

Swagger definition

Can be found in swagger.yaml. Only relevant methods added.

Due to missing union types in of OpenAPI 2.0 and missing code generators in OpenHab 3.0 the setState only takes percentage right now.

Open issues

• stopall is missing
• Only rollershutters supported right now
