FritzBox reboot button
Hello!
Would it be possible somehow to create a “FritzBox-Reboot-Button” (further to create an automated reboot every night via pimatic)? I already found the FHEM script but I’m an absolutely newbie so i have no idea how to implement it into pimatic. Here the FHEM-script if this helps:
get fritzbox tr064Command DeviceConfig:1 deviceconfig Reboot
Any idea!
Thank you in advance!

If a bash script isnt a problem you could try this one:
#!/bin/bash
_BOXURL="http://fritz.box"
_USERNAME=""
_PASSWORD=""
_CHALLENGE=$(curl -s ${_BOXURL}/login.lua | grep "^g_challenge" | awk -F '"' '{ print $2 }')
_MD5=$(echo -n ${_CHALLENGE}"-"${_PASSWORD} | iconv -f ISO8859-1 -t UTF-16LE | md5sum -b | awk '{print substr($0,1,32)}')
_RESPONSE="${_CHALLENGE}-${_MD5}"
_SID=$(curl -i -s -k -d 'response='${_RESPONSE} -d 'page=' -d "username=${_USERNAME}" "${_BOXURL}/login.lua" | grep "Location:" | awk -F'=' '{print $NF}' | grep -Po '[a-f\d]+')
# Box reboot
echo 'Reboot in progress ... please allow up to 2 minutes for the box to come up!'
curl -s "${_BOXURL}/reboot.lua?sid=${_SID}&extern_reboot=1&ajax=1" >/dev/null
Fill in your details and try it. Dont forget to chmod +x yourscript.sh to make it executable.
If it works you can run following as rule:
WHEN its 03:00 THEN execute "sudo /path/to/yourscript.sh"
And for a button:
WHEN button is pressed THEN execute " sudo /path/to/yourscripts.sh"
Wow! Thank you very much for this fast reply! I never did something with bash script (just used the plugins). But I will try to get into it at weekend and come back with results. Would be so cool if it works. Anyway, than you in advance!

No problem 
Ok… bash script seems to be a problem for me 
No idea where/how to start. Is it possible to do it with the “pimatic shell execute plugin”? Sorry if it’s a stupid question but as I said… totally newbie.

Yes, you need that plugin for this to work:
pimatic shell execute plugin
This plugin let you define devices that execute shell commands. Additionally, it allows you to execute shell commands in rule actions. So you can define rules of the form:
if ... then execute "some command"
For now, ill assume you use putty to access your raspberry terminal.
You first create a file that will become your executable:
sudo nano /home/pi/pimatic-app/reboot-fritzbox.sh
This will open a terminal and you can paste the code there with SHIFT-INSERT keys.
Now you edit the variables.
_BOXURL="http://your url to fritzbox"
_USERNAME="your username"
_PASSWORD="your password"
Press ctrl+x and y - enter to save
Now we need to make it executable:
sudo chmod +x /home/pi/pimatic-app/reboot-fritzbox.sh
Now that is is executable, pimatic can run it too.
If you have shell execute plugin enabled you can also use it in a rule like i mentioned earlier.
You can see bash as an windows .exe. This script uses variables for its final part, a cURL command.
You can see cURL as an headless browser.
The script log’s in to your fitzbox(variables) and presses the right buttons to reboot(cURL).
