This binding adds support for BTHome protocal standard devices
This project is using https://github.com/koenvervloesem/BTHome-Kaitai-Struct to parse the BTHome protocol data.
Following thing type is supported by this extension:
- Any BTHome device that supports the BTHome V2 protocol standard
| Thing Type ID | Description |
|---|---|
| bthome | BTHome V2 compliant device |
Encryption is not yet supported, but let me know if you need it and I will add it.
Discovery does not work as openHAB discovery mechanism doesn't provide the necessary service data (no manufacturerId is used by BTHome, only a custom service UUID). You need to know the Bluetooth address of the device to add it to openHAB.
Please upvote openhab/openhab-addons#16910 to get this supported.
Supported configuration parameters for the things:
| Property | Type | Default | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
address |
String | Yes | Bluetooth address of the device (in format XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX) |
|
expectedReportingIntervalSeconds |
integer | 3600 | No | Expected reporting interval in seconds. If the device hasn't phoned home within this deadline, channels are marked as UNDEF and device will become OFFLINE. Note: A 10% grace period is added to this value. |
Channels are created dynamically based on the device's capabilities.
bthome.things with Bluetooth adapter config included (in this example, an ESP32 running ESPHome firmware acting as a
Bluetooth proxy):
Bridge bluetooth:esphome:proxy "My ESP Bluetooth proxy" [ backgroundDiscovery=true ] {
bthome my-device "BTHome broadcasting device" [ address="00:00:00:00:00:00", expectedReportingIntervalSeconds = 600]
}
