#Description SmartThings Door Left Open Alert with optional Photo Capture & Hello Home Actions
Version 1.3.5

An app for SmartThings that will send a notification (and optionally capture photo's / run a hello home action) in the event that a door is left open for longer than your desired threshold time.

To view captured photos, Open the SmartThings app on your mobile device, navigate to your camera and review the carousel at the top (Note: I have had to force quit the SmartThings app and relaunch it before new photos show up in the carousel).

#Installation

1. Login at http://graph.api.smartthings.com
2. Go to "My SmartApps" section and click on the "+ New SmartApp" button on the right.
3. On the "New SmartApp" page, fill out mandatory "Name" and "Description" fields (it does not matter what you put there).
4. Click the "Create" button at the bottom.
5. When a new app template opens in the IDE, replace the contents with that in the .groovy file here
6. Click the blue "Save" button above the editor window.
7. Click the "Publish" button next to it and select "For Me". You have now self-published your SmartApp.
8. Open SmartThings mobile app on iPhone or Android and go to the Dashboard.

Revision History

• 8/14/2014 Option to take a photo with a ST compatible camera added.
• 11/8/2014 Prevent false alarms. Added option to repeat alert if door remains open. Added versioning.
• 11/9/2014 Prevent repeat forever. Limit repeat messages to 10.
• 12/4/2014 - (1.3.2-Beta1) - Added Dynamic Menus (Status Page, Configure Page). Added Hello Home action option on first alert and optional Hello Home on clear.
• 12/9/2014 - (1.3.3) - Adding Dynamic Menus from 1.3.2-Beta + SpeechSynthesis (audio announcements) for Sonos/VLC Thing devices. Added to category: "Safety & Security"
• 10/26/2015 - (1.3.4) - Added support for musicPlayer devices (Sonos, VLCThing). Previously only had support for speechSynthesis (Ubi, VLCThing). This implementation will interrupt your Sonos if playing audio, play the alert and will not currently resume the audio that was playing. I will anticipate adding this support at a later date.
• 10/26/2015 - (1.3.5) - Corrected new musicPlayer selection setting. (Thanks ST_Community: PM4_1613)
