# Enervent-control

External control of an Enervent Pingvin
Kotilämpö residential heating/ventilation
unit via RS485 bus using the Modbus protocol.

Provides a REST API for integration into Home Assistant,
with measurements and basic control over Pingvin functions.

Template YAML configurations for Home Assistant are included
in the `homeassistant` folder, intended to be simple to copy-paste
into Home Assistant's `configuration.yaml` with minimal necessary
modifications.

The daemon is designed to run on a Linux host
that has some sort of RS-485 connector attached.
For development a RPi Zero W 1 with a
connected [Zihatec RS 485 HAT](https://www.hwhardsoft.de/english/projects/rs485-shield/?mobile=1)
has been used.

### Building
- clone or download the repo
- `static/html/index.html` is symlinked to `coils` and `registers`
  for development purposes, the symlinks need to be dereferenced before
  building the binary on filesystems that support symlinks
  - Replace symlinks with copies of the files or use e.g. `tar -h`
- Build for the correct architecture, e.g. for Linux 32-bit ARM (Rpi Zero W 1):
  ```
  cd /path/to/repo
  env GOOS=linux GOARCH=arm go build -o BUILD/enervent-ctrl-linux-arm32
  ```

### Configuration:
- CLI flags:
```
  -cert string
        Path to SSL public key to use for HTTPS (default "/home/jarno/.config/enervent-ctrl/certificate.pem")
  -debug
        Enable debug logging
  -enable-metrics
        Enable the built-in Prometheus exporter (default true)
  -httplog
        Enable HTTP access logging
  -interval int
        Set the interval of background updates (default 4)
  -key string
        Path to SSL private key to use for HTTPS (default "/home/jarno/.config/enervent-ctrl/privatekey.pem")
  -logfile string
        Path to log file. Default is empty string, log to stdout
  -password string
        Password for HTTP Basic Authentication (default "enervent")
  -regenerate-certs ~/.config/enervent-ctrl/server.crt
        Generate a new SSL certificate. A new one is generated on startup as ~/.config/enervent-ctrl/server.crt if it doesn't exist.
  -serial string
        Path to serial console for RS-485 connection. Defaults to /dev/ttyS0 (default "/dev/ttyS0")
  -username string
        Username for HTTP Basic Authentication (default "pingvin")
```
On first run, the daemon generates `~/.config/enervent-ctrl/configuration.yaml` with default values.
Configuration options are the same as with CLI flags. CLI flags take precedenence over the config file.
- `serial_address:` Path to RS-485 serial device
- `port:` TCP port for the REST API to listen on
- `ssl_certificate:` Path to SSL certificate for HTTPS
- `ssl_privatekey:` Path to SSL private key for HTTPS
- `username:` Username for REST API HTTP Basic Auth
- `password:` Password for REST API HTTP Basic Auth
- `interval:` Interval of background updates from Modbus
- `enable_metrics:` Enable the built-in Prometheus exporter
- `log_file:` Path to log file, default logging is to STDOUT
- `log_access:` Enable HTTP Access logging to logfile/STDOUT
- `debug:` Enable debug logging

Readme will be updated in the near future.
