IPS Category, Instance or Variable on website

Hi,

Is it possible to show a Category, Instance or Variable from IPS in a page on my website? I want to show only one page from the IPS webfront.

Thanks ….

Sure. Using SOAP or a custom PHP page in your webfront/user folder, or maybe some nice RPC magic? (http://www.ip-symcon.de/forum/threads/18690-Einfache-eigene-Seiten-mit-JSON-RPC-Dojo-Javascript-ab-IP-Symcon-2-6?highlight=RPC)

I’m not sure this is what I’m looking for, is there a simple way just to show a category of instance n a HTML of PHP page?

Hi,

Still looking for a way to show some parts of IPS on my website.

The only way now is to link to one of the webfront’s I have made with a link like http://xxxxx.nl:82/index.php?configuratorID=26860. Is there a way to show a certain Category, Instance or Variable form IPS?

The answer from paresy is much too complicated for me, I hope a easier way can be used.

Thanks ….

Albert

Absolutely. Add a second WebFront Configurator to your IP-Symcon. There you can modify the „Category“ item to some special root category. This way you will have a second WebFront you can link to, where only a special portion of your IP-Symcon is visible. Using Links is another nifty trick :wink:

It’s only via Google translate but you should probably get the grasp on where to click :wink:

Thanks, that could do the trick. I have only five WebFront Configurations available and all used at the moment. But this is working, thanks ……

It should be great if it is possible to use a link one level down the WebFront Configuration, do you know if that is possible?

Or is it possible to show a Category, Instance or Variable on a PHP or HTML page in de webfront/user directory? Or maybe only a value of a object? That could also be a way, this page can then be inserted in a page on the website.

Albert

Sure. Just throw some customname.php in the webfront/user folder and call it from your website. You can show object values using GetValue.


<?php
echo GetValue(12345);
?>

Thanks, I didn’t know that you can call objects from outside IPS.

I will create the output in this way.
