dlock13 0.4.1

# dlock13

Breakout design (in EAGLE) and source code for our door lock actuator, running on a Raspberry PI(1). Communication with the lock happens over [MQTT](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MQTT). Does not contain user interface, check [door-web](https://github.com/bitraf/door-web) for that.

## MQTT interface

To open the door, send the number of seconds to open to:

/bitraf/door/$door_id/open # Ex: 20

On success, will output values:

/bitraf/door/$door_id/isopen # Ex: true/false /bitraf/door/$door_id/openuntil # Unix timestamp when door will lock again. Ex: 1495469392

On error, will send a string with an error message:

/bitraf/door/$door_id/error # Ex: “Time to open is negative”

Where $door_id is for instance 2floor, frontdoor, 4floor. The /bitraf/door/ prefix is configurable, can be set to /mysystem/doorlocks.

## Code

At [dlock13-msgflo/dlock13.cpp](./dlock13-msgflo/dlock13.cpp).

Impementation is in C++11, using [msgflo-cpp](https://github.com/msgflo/msgflo-cpp).

## Python API

Also provided is a simple Python module which will handle checking the MQTT messages being sent out on success/error.

Installing

pip install dlock13

A command-line tool is included

dlock13-open /bitraf/door/$door_id 60

For how to use programatically, use [dlock13-open](./dlock13-open) as example code.

## Board


The board has two MOSFETS for driving standard electronic locks. Expansion for two inputs also exists.

Single-sided board with through-hole components, can easily be CNC milled or etched.


### Pinout

# Function | Connector pin | BCM SoC pin | WiringPi pin | === mosfet1 | 19 | 10 | 12 mosfet2 | 2 | 11 | 14

BCM SoC pin is the on used for /sys/class/gpio/gpioNN and similar.

## Deployment

A systemd service template is normally used to each doorlock: [dlock13@.service](dlock13-msgflo/dlock13@.service).

systemctl status dlock13@2floor

The following environment variables are used. They can be specified in /etc/dlock13/$door_id.conf.

• MSGFLO_BROKER - the MQTT broker connection details. Ex: mqtt://user:password@mqtt.example.net

• DLOCK13_PIN - the GPIO pin number to use. Ex: 11
