rest980

rest980 create a http server to map all dorita980 methods in a REST API to control your iRobot Roomba 900 series 980 / i7 / i7+ via HTTP requests.

Install

$ git clone https://github.com/koalazak/rest980.git
$ cd rest980
$ npm install

Fimrware version

Check your robot firmware version! and set your firmware version in firmwareVersion rest980 configuration!

Configuration

The service can be configured by editing config/default.json or by setting environment variables.

See dorita980 for more information and instructions for obtaining your robot blid and password

Start API Server

$ cd rest980
$ DEBUG=rest980:* npm start
rest980:server Listening on port 3000

omit DEBUG=rest980:* if you want. You can just run with npm start

Or use Docker Image

You can use koalazak/rest980 docker image to run this server in a docker container. Usefull to run on Synology for example.

Pull Docker image:

docker pull koalazak/rest980

Run Docker image:

docker run -e BLID=myuser -e PASSWORD=mypass -e ROBOT_IP=myrobotIP koalazak/rest980

Dockerfile

Also you can local build and test in Docker from this Dockerfile

docker build . -t koalazak/rest980 

API documentation

Now you can make request to this server on port 3000. There are 2 main endpoints: local and cloud, mapped to dorita980 local and cloud methods as well.

Error responses:

HTTP status 500 and response:

{"message":"human message","error":{}}

Local

Actions

All cleaning actions are under /api/local/action/[action] endpoint using GET method without query params:

Available actions:

• start
• stop
• pause
• dock
• resume
• cleanRoom

Example: start to clean

GET http://192.168.1.110:3000/api/local/action/start

Success Response:

{"ok":null,"id":23}

Example: clean a specific room

Some roomba types support "room specificic cleaning" - at the time of writing, at least the s9 and the i7 support this featrue. Assuming you have this model, and have a "Smart Map" for the floor you're trying to clean, you can send room specific cleaning commands. The easiest way to find out the values for this is to start a room specific clean via the app, and then look at the state endpoint (documented below) and find the lastCommand entry. Using this, you can find the room ids. These seem to be stable over time, unless a re-training or new smart map is saved.

The pmap_id and user_pmapv_id are also derived from the same lastCommand trick. These also seem to be stable - unless a new training run or edit to the smart map happens. It's important to get these correct, else your roomba won't clean.

curl -X POST http://192.168.1.110:3000/api/local/action/cleanRoom -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"ordered": 0, "pmap_id": "123456", "regions": [{"region_id":"5", "region_name":"Hallway","region_type":"hallway"}], "user_pmapv_id": "987654"}'

Note that this is a POST becuase it has a body, unlike the other related action methods.
