smiirl-mock

This project describes how the Smiirl counters work and how they could possibly be used for other purposes without having to buy the custom counter.

API

The counter uses an unencrypted HTTP API: http://api.smiirl.com/

config endpoint

GET http://api.smiirl.com/v1.0/{mac}/{secret}

{
	"result": true,
	"status": true,
	"v": "smiirl_2.0.7-1",
	"attribute": "number",
	"url": "http://api.smiirl.com/{mac}/number",
	"interval": 300,
	"code": 200
}

number endpoint

GET http://api.smiirl.com/{mac}/number

{
"number": 12345
}

Network

The counter registers itself as espressif at the router.

Because the data is not encrypted, it is possible to route the traffic to another server.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install dnsmasq

sudo nano /etc/dnsmasq.conf
-> add line: address=/api.smiirl.com/192.168.178.89

sudo systemctl restart dnsmasq

Set the DNS server of your router to the IP address of your new dns-server. Now make sure that you make both API endpoints available on a server (in the example 192.168.178.89) with the values according to your wishes.
