postsrsd monit config

This might work to configure monit on Debian (Jessie) to monitor postsrsd.

check process postsrsd matching "/usr/sbin/postsrsd"
    group postsrsd
    start program = "/etc/init.d/postsrsd start"
    stop  program = "/etc/init.d/postsrsd stop"
    if failed host localhost port 10001 then restart 
    if failed host localhost port 10002 then restart

TP-Link HS110 – controlling from the command line

I have a TP-Link HS110 plug (probably identical to the HS100 … but I thought being able to query it through the app to find out energy usage would be neat …).

Anyway, it originally didn’t seem to let me schedule it through the app, so I dug around and wrote a crap shell script I can prod via cron.

Usage examples:

1. tplink.sh -u my@email.com -p mypassword -o off -> turns the first device found off.
2. tplink.sh -u my@email.com -p mypassword -o on -> turns the first device found on.
3. tplink.sh -u my@email.com -p mypassword -d TpLinkDeviceId -o on -> now for a specific device.
4. tplink.sh -u …. -p …. -d “?” -> dumps device list output …
5. tplink.sh -t tpLinktoken -d DeviceId -o on|off …
