Using curl command with correct syntax in rule

---

Dear folks,

I would like to ask for the correct syntax when firing a curl command via an “execute rule”; even escaping quotation marks seems not to work …

while this is working flawlessly in command line:

pi@pimatic:~ $ curl -s -i -H "Accept: text/xml" -H "Cache-Control: no-cache" -H "Pragma: no-cache" -H "SOAPACTION: \"urn:panasonic-com:service:p00NetworkControl:1#X_SendKey\"" -H "Content-Length: 200" -H "Content-Type: text/xml;charset=\"utf-8\"" -X POST --data "<s:Envelope xmlns:s=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/\" s:encodingStyle=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/\"><s:Body> <u:X_SendKey xmlns:u=\"urn:panasonic-com:service:p00NetworkControl:1\"> <X_KeyEvent>NRC_POWER-ONOFF</X_KeyEvent></u:X_SendKey> </s:Body> </s:Envelope>" http://192.168.1.14:55000/nrc/control_0/?
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
CONTENT-LENGTH: 301
Content-Type: text/xml; charset="utf-8"
EXT:
SERVER: Panasonic-VIErA/1, UPnP/1.0, Panasonic MIL DLNA SERVER
CONNECTION: close

how to use this command for a pimatic rule, please?

Thanks and regards,
Paule

@cybolord try:

execute "curl -s -i -H 'Accept: text/xml' -H 'Cache-Control: no-cache' -H 'Pragma: no-cache' -H 'SOAPACTION: \'urn:panasonic-com:service:p00NetworkControl:1#X_SendKey\'' -H 'Content-Length: 200' -H 'Content-Type: text/xml;charset=\'utf-8\'' -X POST --data '<s:Envelope xmlns:s=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/\" s:encodingStyle=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/\"><s:Body> <u:X_SendKey xmlns:u=\"urn:panasonic-com:service:p00NetworkControl:1\"> <X_KeyEvent>NRC_POWER-ONOFF</X_KeyEvent></u:X_SendKey> </s:Body> </s:Envelope>' http://192.168.1.14:55000/nrc/control_0/?"

I cant test it because am not sure what this does, but it saves the rule so test it.

@gleno0h Thank you so much - it’s working now

btw, for Panasonic Viera TV users this curl command might also be usefull:
it switches the TV to StandBy mode by using websocket command “NRC_POWER-ONOFF”

to switch it back ON you can use WakeOnLAN Plugin - both works great now indeed

have a nice weekend

@cybolord no problem!

Seems there is a need for a Panasonic Viera plugin?

I ordered a Panasonic OLED last weekend and will give it a try when the TV is delivered.
