Kankun

The kankun switch platform allows you to toggle customized Kankun SP3 Wi-Fi switches. Switches are modified to include the json.cgi script to provide an HTTP API. Details of the necessary modifications were provided on the now dead HomeAutomationForGeeks site, but fortunately we can still access the information via archive.org link (be sure to install the JSON version of the script as linked above).

Configuration

To enable it, add the following lines to your configuration.yaml:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
switch:
  platform: kankun
  switches:
    bedroom_heating:
      host: hostname_or_ipaddr
