MQTT interface for Tuya home automation devices sold under various names. This is a wrapper script for the Project codetheweb/tuyapi. https://github.com/codetheweb/tuyapi
This project provides an MQTT client for communication with the home automation devices.
❗ There is a greate Step-By-Step guide from user HolgiHab at openhab community (Step-By-Step Guide). This guide is not only for light bulbs, but also applies to sockets. ❗
Download this project to your openhab2-script-folder "/etc/openhab2/scripts" and install tuyapi from the same folder that the tuya-mqtt.js is in
cd /etc/openhab2/scripts
// clone this project
git clone git@github.com:TheAgentK/tuya-mqtt.git
// change directory to the project directory
cd tuya-mqtt
//installs this project along with codetheweb/tuyapi project
npm install
See the setup instructions found here: https://github.com/codetheweb/tuyapi/blob/master/docs/SETUP.md
cp config.json.sample config.json
// edit the configuration file
nano config.json
node tuya-mqtt.js
// For debugging purpose, to use DEBUG : https://www.npmjs.com/package/debug
//on Linux machines at the bash command prompt:
DEBUG=* tuya-mqtt.js
// on Windows machines at the cmd.exe command prompt:
Set DEBUG=* tuya-mqtt.js
URL to DEBUG
Change device state (by topic):
tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/command/<STATE>
Example:
- tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/command/on
- tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/command/off
- tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/command/ON
- tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/command/OFF
- tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/command/1
- tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/command/0
- tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/command/toggle
- tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/command/TOGGLE
- tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/command/{ "dps": 1, "set": true }
- tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/command/{ "multiple": true, "data": { "1": true, "7": true } }
Change device state (by payload)
Use with OpenHAB 2.X MQTT bindings or others where only a single command topic is preferred:
NOTE: notice that nothing follows the word command, DO NOT but a "/" in after command.
tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/command
Example:
"ON"
"OFF"
"on"
"off"
"1"
"0"
"toggle"
"TOGGLE"
"{ \"dps\": 1, \"set\": true }"
"{ \"multiple\": true, \"data\": { \"1\": true, \"7\": true } }"
Change color of lightbulb (payload as HSB-Color)
tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/color
Example:
64,0,100
Current device state (allways DPS[1]-Value):
tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/state
Device DPS-Values:
// returns JSON.stringify(dps) values, use with care, does not always contain all dps values
tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/dps
// return single dps data value
tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/dps/<tuya-dps-id>
There are some reliability issues with tuyapi. Latest changes changed the syntax but still getting error maybe at an even higher rate.
All questions regarding the tuyAPI please ask in the project https://github.com/codetheweb/tuyapi .
Example items for OpenHAB 1.x Bindings (still works with OH > 2.4 but only if legacy 1.x MQTT bindings are enabled)

With OpenHAB 2.X MQTT bindings you can add devices using a generic MQTT Thing via PaperUI or configuration files. For PaperUI simply at the generic MQTT Thing and set the state and command topics as follows:
tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/state
tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/command
If you prefer using configuration files vs PaperUI, it should look something like this: See also OpenHAB 2.X MQTT binding documentation
Bridge mqtt:broker:myUnsecureBroker [ host="localhost", secure=false ]
{
Thing mqtt:topic:myCustomMQTT {
Channels:
Type switch : tuya_kitchen_coffeemachine_mqtt "Kitchen Coffee Machine MQTT Channel" [
stateTopic="tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/state",
commandTopic="tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/command",
// optional custom mqtt-payloads for ON and OFF
on="{ \"dps\": 1, \"set\": true }",
off="0"
]
}
}
# *.item Example
Switch tuya_kitchen_coffeemachine_mqtt "Kitchen Coffee Machine Switch" <socket> (gKitchen, gTuya) ["Switchable"] {
channel="mqtt:topic:myMosquitto:tuya:coffeemachine"
}
For one RGB bulb you would need a separate channel with the command topic set to
tuya/<tuyAPI-id>/<tuyAPI-key>/<tuyAPI-ip>/color
and link that to your color item.
Bridge mqtt:broker:myUnsecureBroker [ host="localhost", secure=false ]
{
Type colorHSB : livingroom_floorlamp_1_color "Livingroom floorlamp color MQTT Channel" [
stateTopic="tuya/lightbulb/05200399bcddc2e02ec9/b58cf92e8bc5c899/192.168.178.49/state",
commandTopic="tuya/lightbulb/05200399bcddc2e02ec9/b58cf92e8bc5c899/192.168.178.49/color"
]
}
# *.item Example
Color tuya_livingroom_colorpicker "Floorlamp colorpicker" (gLivingroom){
channel="mqtt:topic:myMosquitto:tuya:livingroom_floorlamp_1_color"
}
Switch item=tuya_kitchen_coffeemachine_mqtt
# Colorpicker for Lightbulbs
