Homebridge Integration
Closed this issue · 4 comments
To many of us who are invested in Apples ecosystem an alternative to get our non-native homekit devices into Apple home is using Homebridge: https://homebridge.io/
For this you could develop a Homebridge Sinricpro Plugin that connects Homebridge with Sinric's API
or
Simply make Sinric complatible with MQTT (https://mqtt.org/) a wide use protocol for IOT
Like this similar service did: https://www.docu.smartnest.cz/homebridge-integration
To be clear we are not asking for Native Homekit support, we would be more than happy with work arounds like Homebridge or MQTT.
Hi @fpto
If you are looking for a quick win, try Homebridge API. You should be able to send the PUT command via ESP8266/ESP32 to the Homebridge API.
CURL examples:
homebridge/homebridge#2512 (comment)
Another option would be to use Node-RED with Sinric Pro node-red plugin
The proper way to implement this is via a plug-in (same as Node-RED). Unfortunately, we do not have the capacity to do this now. perhaps in the future will take a look. If you are willing to take on the challenge, I can help you with the APIs.
Hi @fpto
I have started working on a homebridge-sinricpro plugin.
Is there any specific device type you are after? planning to implement Switch for the first release and followed by others.
