Managing maps

[dannytrigo]

Hi,

Great work on this. I am wondering if there's a way to manage the maps via the local server. For example, adjusting room boundaries, adding no go zones, etc.

Thanks

Short answer: Not through the local server, it has no map-management surface.

What it implements is the account and protocol side of Roborock's cloud: region, time, location, nc/prepare, the login/verification-code endpoints, app config/plugins, key signing, and the device protocol listener. That endpoint set contains nothing map-related.

What the server does for maps is keep them alive. The whole premise is that the vacuum keeps live maps on your LAN because Roborock otherwise routes all map data through their cloud. The server stands in for that cloud so the existing map loads and updates locally; it does not add an editor on top of it.

Editing geometry stays in the official app. So for now, adjusting room boundaries or adding no-go zones means doing it in the Roborock app and letting the vacuum store the result. The local server will serve that map, but it will not let you write one.

I hope I have answered your question.

Thanks for the reply. I didn't realise it was still possible to use the official app while the vacuum is connected to the local server. Mine shows offline since I moved it. I'll look into fixing that instead.

I wonder if map management could be possible in future using the same APIs the app uses, whether that's vacuum APIs or the server APIs
