In addition to the release webpage the binaries can also be OTA downloaded from http://thehackbox.org/tasmota/release/

Development

Dev Version Download Dev Build Status

See RELEASENOTES.md for release information and sonoff/_changelog.ino for detailed change information.

The development codebase is checked hourly for changes and if new commits have been merged and compile successfuly they will be posted at http://thehackbox.org/tasmota/ (this web address can be used for OTA too). It is important to note that these are based on the current development codebase and it is not recommended to flash it to devices used in production or which are hard to reach in the event that you need to manually flash the device if OTA failed. The last compiled commit number is also posted on the same page along with the current build status (if a firmware rebuild is in progress).

Disclaimer

⚠️ DANGER OF ELECTROCUTION ⚠️

A Sonoff device is not a toy. It uses Mains AC so there is a danger of electrocution if not installed properly. If you don't know how to install it, please call an electrician. Remember: SAFETY FIRST. It is not worth to risk yourself, your family and your home if you don't know exactly what you are doing. Never try to flash a Sonoff device while it is connected to MAINS AC.

We don't take any responsibility nor liability for using this software nor for the installation or any tips, advice, videos, etc. given by any member of this site or any related site.

Note

Please do not ask to add devices where you can't provide a basic working configuration (other than sonoff). Since there are thousands of them..

Quick Install

Download one of the released binaries from https://github.com/arendst/Sonoff-Tasmota/releases and flash it to your hardware as documented in the wiki.

Important User Compilation Information

If you want to compile Sonoff-Tasmota yourself keep in mind the following:

  • Only Flash Mode DOUT is supported. Do not use Flash Mode DIO / QIO / QOUT as it might seem to brick your device. See Wiki for background information.
  • Sonoff-Tasmota uses a 1M linker script WITHOUT spiffs 1M (no SPIFFS) for optimal code space. If you compile using ESP/Arduino library 2.3.0 then download the provided new linker script to your Arduino IDE or Platformio base folder. Later version of ESP/Arduino library already contain the correct linker script. See Wiki > Prerequisite.
  • To make compile time changes to Sonoff-Tasmota it can use the user_config_override.h file. It assures keeping your settings when you download and compile a new version. To use user_config.override.h you will have to make a copy of the provided user_config_override_sample.h file and add your setting overrides. To enable the override file you will need to use a compile define as documented in the user_config_override_sample.h file.

Version Information

  • Sonoff-Tasmota provides all (Sonoff) modules in one file and starts with module Sonoff Basic.
  • Once uploaded select module using the configuration webpage or the commands Modules and Module.
  • After reboot select config menu again or use commands GPIOs and GPIO to change GPIO with desired sensor.
