Hello,
I'm starting with pilight.
I've run pilight-receive and I received my neighboor temperature device as follow :

Code:

{
        "message": {
                "id": 227,
                "temperature": 2.61,
                "humidity": 93.00,
                "battery": 1,
                "channel": 1
        },
        "origin": "receiver",
        "protocol": "tfa",
        "uuid": "0000-b8-27-eb-c15c94",
        "repeats": 4
}

So I would like to add this as a new device.

In the conf.json I've added :

Code:

"devices": {
  "living": {
  "name": "Living",
  "weather": {
       "name": "Weather",
    "protocol": ["tfa"],
    "id": [{
    "id": 227,
    "channel": 1
  }],
  "temperature": 189,
  "humidity": 410,
  "battery": 1
  }
}
}

But I have the following error (in /var/log/pilight.err) when I run pilight service:

[Nov 08 00:18:18:225149] pilight-daemon: ERROR: config device #1 "living", missing protocol

What's wrong ?
Thanks in advance.

First, please edit your post according to the forum rules, like using code tags for readability.

Second, see the wiki for the correct syntax of your devices. Your current config looks definitely wrong.

Ok sorry for that I'm new here.
Thanks for your response anyway.
I've read the wiki for tfa and copied/paste the config in the conf.json.
Should I insert it in "devices" or as a new json entry ?

[wo_rasp]

The string "device" was a bug in the WIKI, I have updated it.

[Niek]

Yes every device must be entered in the "devices" section as described here

It seems that you tried to enter a device called "living", without specifying a protocol and its options. You also entered two lines with "name" that aren't valid protocol options at all.

Thanks a lot for your help, I finally got it work and I can see my device values in the GUI
Now I'm trying to send curl request to pilight-daemon 
Here is my settings config :

Code:

"settings": {
                "log-level": 6,
                "pid-file": "/var/run/pilight.pid",
                "log-file": "/var/log/pilight.log",
                "webserver-enable": 1,
                "webserver-root": "/usr/local/share/pilight/",
                "webserver-http-port": 5001,
                "webserver-cache": 1,
                "port": 5000
        }

But when I execute :

Code:

curl -s -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '{"action": "identify"}'  http://127.0.0.1:5000

I got an HTML response saying that "The pilight webgui is located at 127.0.0.1:5001"
Sure I'm doing something wrong but again I don't know where.
The pilight logs says :

Code:

[Nov 08 23:01:57:498819] pilight-daemon: INFO: new client, ip: 127.0.0.1, port: 58620

Seems that port is changing.

Doing that :

Code:

curl --local-port 5000  -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '{"action": "identify"}' http://127.0.0.1

It says

Code:

Address already in use

My final goal is to be able to use domoticz to make periodical request to pilight-daemon to get the temperature.

EDIT: Ok I saw a similar thread (https://forum.pilight.org/Thread-pilight...-html-page) that explains why it doesn't work.

I used 

Code:

echo {\"action\": \"identify\"} | nc 127.0.0.1 5000

and it finally worked
