This plugin came about because the one I was using seemed very unreliable. The plugin only supports Light Switches I do intend to enhance the feature set in the future, so hang tight. Alternatively, make a PR!
This is a plugin for Homebridge. Get started by visiting their GitHub page https://github.com/nfarina/homebridge
npm install -g homebridge-bee-hive
You'll then need to modify your config.json
file to contain the following...
"accessories": [{
"accessory": "HomebridgeBeeHive",
"product": "light-bulb",
"displayName": "Front Room",
"id": "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx",
"username": "[email protected]",
"password": "myPassword0912"
}],
Attribute | Value | Reason |
---|---|---|
accessory | HomebridgeBeeHive | The name of the plugin |
product | light-bulb | The product that you want to initialise |
displayName | Front Room | How this will appear to Home/Siri |
id | xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx | The UUID found in http://my.hivehome.com/ |
username | Hive Home Username | Allows the plugin to access Hive's API |
password | Hive Home Password | Allows the plugin to access Hive's API |
