homebridge-http-temperature-humidity

FORKED

Supports https devices on HomeBridge Platform

Installation

  1. Install homebridge using: npm install -g homebridge
  2. Install this plugin using: npm install -g homebridge-httptemperaturehumidity
  3. Update your configuration file. See sample-config.json in this repository for a sample.

Configuration

Configuration sample file:


"accessories": [
   {
       "accessory": "HttpTemphum",
       "name": "Living Room Weather",
       "url": "http://192.168.1.210/weather",
       "sendimmediately": "",
       "http_method": "GET"
   }
]

The /weather endpoint will return a json looking like this

{
	"temperature": 25.8,
	"humidity": 38
}

This plugin acts as an interface between a web endpoint and homebridge only. You will still need some dedicated hardware to expose the web endpoints with the temperature and humidity information. In my case, I used a simple NodeMCU board and a DHT11 (or DHT22). Check my other repo for the NodeMCU code.
