Node-elkm1

A node.js based interface to my Elk M1 Security & Automation Control) controller. A Raspberry Pi would provide a web and TCP interface to control and monitor the M1.

The Pi can also be used for notification and preform pre-defined actions based on the event.

Requirements

  • Live, raw serial dump to a TCP socket (P2000, would be nice if it could be treated like a serial port from Windows or Unix)
  • Partially processes serial dump (P4000, commands separated by a '\n' (new line)
    • device subscription service
  • Web interface giving the current status of each device
  • Web interface allowing access to each device
