Unifi sensor

[Dingin (LEB)]

HIim trying to make some sesnor for the unifi controller, and im having problems with the authentication and rest sensors,
i get the cookie but thats it, i saw a solution similar from this topic.

Cookie login to get value for sensor

@Vsider I spent the weekend scratching my head over this. I didn’t want any scripts with dependencies or cli utilities, I just wanted to access the damn api I came up with this (cookie in variable) data='{"username":"user","password":"pass"}'; ip='https://192.168.1.1:443'; c=$(curl -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d $data -ksc - $ip/api/auth/login -o /dev/null); echo "${c}" | curl -ksb - $ip/proxy/network/api/s/default/stat/device/ BUT because of the limitations of Command line Sensor, …

can @Vsider or @Mattias_Persson share your sensors for this? it would very appreciated.
I am trying to use the rest platform to be able to use attribute_templates:

Thanks!

I switched to python https://github.com/matt8707/hass-config/blob/0c7f0d0b210e46729d8d9e58a9005f7646f9b51a/packages/router_unifi.yaml
as you can see in the script you should create these secrets

unifi_ip
unifi_port
unifi_user
unifi_pass

Hi thanks for your response, in your code , i see you get the “data” part of the json response and is exactly what im looking for, but i need to put the complete response on an attribute (because of the 255 character limit), not a programmer here and i cant figure it out could you show me how to put the full json in the attribute instead of specific parts?

  - platform: command_line
    name: udm_unifios
    command: |-
      python3 << EOF
      import json, yaml, requests
      from datetime import datetime
      from urllib3 import disable_warnings
      disable_warnings()

      SECRETS_FILE = "/config/secrets.yaml"
      def get_secret(secret):
          try:
              with open(SECRETS_FILE, "r", encoding="utf8") as file:
                  secrets = yaml.full_load(file)
                  for key, value in secrets.items():
                      if key == secret:
                          return value
          except FileNotFoundError:
              print("secrets.yaml not found")
              exit()

      IP = get_secret("unifi_ip")
      PORT = get_secret("unifi_port")
      USER = get_secret("unifi_user")
      PASS = get_secret("unifi_pass")
      URL = f"https://{IP}:{PORT}"

      login = requests.request("POST", f"{URL}/api/auth/login", \
          headers={"Content-Type": "application/json"}, \
          data=json.dumps({"username": USER, "password": PASS}), verify=False)
      response = requests.request("GET", f"{URL}/proxy/network/api/s/default/stat/device/", \
          cookies=login.cookies, verify=False)
      data = response.json()["data"][0]

      print(json.dumps({
          "cpu": data["system-stats"]["cpu"],
          "cpu_temp": round(data["temperatures"][1]["value"], 1),
          "mem": data["system-stats"]["mem"],
          "disk": round(data["storage"][1]["used"] / data["storage"][1]["size"] * 100, 1),
          # "internet": data["internet"],
          "uptime": datetime.fromtimestamp(data["startup_timestamp"]).isoformat(),
          "version": data["displayable_version"]
      }))
      EOF
    command_timeout: 180
    value_template: >
      {{ value_json.version }}
    json_attributes:
      - cpu
      - cpu_temp
      - mem
      - disk
      # - internet
      - uptime
      - version
    scan_interval: 900

thats for your help!

A different take on designing a Lovelace UI

Yeah, that error doesn’t tell much. Test the most basic form locally then if that works add the json paths and lastly the secrets function. import json, yaml, requests from datetime import datetime from urllib3 import disable_warnings disable_warnings() IP = " " PORT = " " USER = " " PASS = " " URL = f"https://{IP}:{PORT}" login = requests.request("POST", f"{URL}/api/auth/login", \ headers={"Content-Type": "application/json"}, \ data=json.dumps({"username": USER, "password": PASS}), …

you can print the whole response to your command line

Thanks, but i went an other way, just with simple sensor toe get all the data then will use templates to separate the information i need.

here is the sensor

  - platform: command_line
    name: unifi_stats
    command: 'curl -H ''Content-Type: application/json'' -d ''{"username": "Your_User", "password": "Your_password"}'' -ksc - https://your_url:8443/api/login -o /dev/null | curl -ksb - https://your_url:8443/api/stat/sites'
    value_template: 'OK'
    json_attributes:
      - data
    scan_interval: 900

@Mattias_Persson Thanks for your help and guidence!
