OpenHAB - SmartHome

In this second video of the mini-series dedicated to the openHAB console, we move from theory to practice by stepping directly into openHAB's "engine room": the Apache Karaf console.

In this video, we will cover:

• How to access the console: we will discover the different connection methods, from using the openhab-cli console command on Linux systems to accessing via SSH on port 8101 with the default credentials openhab:habopen. We will also see how to access remotely by modifying the openHAB configuration.
• Navigation and shortcuts: I will show you how to use the TAB key for auto-completion and how to filter results that are too long using the "pipe" and the grep command.
• System monitoring: we will see how to use the ttop tool to identify which process is consuming too much CPU.
• Command categories: I will show you the main command categories provided by the console.

The console is a powerful tool that allows you to diagnose and control openHAB much more deeply than the standard graphical interface.
