Web application for smart home management
Project Description
Developed a fully functional web application for remote control of the heating system via a smart thermostat. The project allows for temperature control in the room, monitoring of equipment status, and receiving real-time weather data.
Main Functionality
Thermostat Control:
Setting target temperature (range 5-35°C) with an intuitive interface
Turning the heating system on/off
Switching operating modes (economical/normal)
Parental control (child lock)
Visual indication of heating status (boiler running/temperature reached/off)
Monitoring:
Displaying current room temperature
Integration with OpenWeatherMap API to show external temperature and humidity
Status of thermostat connection to the network
Real-time parameter change tracking system
REST API:
20+ endpoints for full system control
Support for real-time updates via Tuya Pulsar
Monitoring system with customizable intervals
Detailed diagnostics of equipment capabilities
JSON responses with UTF-8 support
Technologies
Backend:
Python 3
Flask (web framework)
Tuya IoT Platform SDK (tuya-connector-python)
WebSocket for real-time communication
Threading for background monitoring
Frontend:
HTML5/CSS3
JavaScript (ES6+)
UIKit CSS Framework
jQuery
Adaptive design (responsive layout)
Google Fonts (Noto Sans, Roboto)
Integrations:
Tuya Cloud API (European endpoint)
OpenWeatherMap API
Pulsar Message Queue for real-time updates
Interface Features
Modern, minimalist design
Adaptive layout for all devices
Animated status indicators (fire, clock)
Debounce for smooth temperature changes
Interactive buttons with instant visual feedback
Integration of SVG icons for weather
Notification system for user messages
API Functionality
Implemented a comprehensive REST API with capabilities:
Retrieving device status
Managing thermostat settings
Automatic monitoring of state changes
Event history (last 50 changes)
Diagnostics of equipment capabilities
Managing Pulsar connection
Viewing the list of all devices in the system
Deployment
The project has been successfully deployed on a dedicated VPS server:
SSL certificate configured
Server runs 24/7 in the background (nohup)
aaPanel configured for convenient administration
Optimized server memory usage
Results
Stable operation without failures
Fast interface response (< 1 second)
Successful integration with Tuya Cloud Platform
Support for real-time updates
Scalable architecture for adding new devices
Complete API documentation with usage examples
Security
Authentication via Tuya Cloud
Secure connection (HTTPS)
Input data validation
Error handling at all levels
Secret keys moved to configuration
Stack: Python, Flask, JavaScript, HTML/CSS, UIKit, Tuya IoT, REST API, WebSocket, Linux
Project Type: Full-stack web development, IoT, Smart Home
