Xiaomi Gateway Integration

KrisRux · March 13, 2017, 1:58pm

hi all,

how to turn on the alarm of gateway with door sensor?

Thanks

Where do you have your configuration? You just need to place the component files in a folder named custom_components, which should be on the same directory of your HA config files.

Thanks @abmantis. That’s fantastic news. I saw a post from @rave mentioning it might be implemented but did see any follow to confirm.

Great. worked 1st time no messing about I can see sensor events in the HA log

This is what I did for Docker based install. (as sudoed user)
cd
mkdir custom_components
cd custom_components
sudo git clone https://github.com/lazcad/homeassistant

then I moved the contents of /custom_components/homeassistant/components back two dirs so that everything is in /custom_components… not sure if this is necessary, but the github readme says to copy all the files into the Home Assistant location/custome_components dir.

Before I buy, does anyone know if the Xiaomi Mi Smart Power Strip with 6 outlets (http://www.gearbest.com/plugs-sockets/pp_609502.html?wid=21) can be controlled via Home Assistant?

I know the single one can be.

hijinx · March 13, 2017, 8:24pm

as far as I can tell from the xiaomi mi app the answer is no.
These are the supported subdevices for the gateway:

Hey Guys,

can someone help me please. Got a problem with getting it working:

I got the following messages:

17-03-13 20:39:01 ERROR (Thread-8) [custom_components.xiaomi] Non matching response. Expecting read_ack, but got get_id_list_ack
17-03-13 20:39:01 ERROR (Thread-8) [custom_components.xiaomi] Non matching response. Expecting read_ack, but got get_id_list_ack

I testet ihr with homebridge and it worked well. I do have the gateway and a temperatur sensor.
Currently i only have the key in my configuration. If i paste the mac as sid in it i got the following error:

Make sure you are not running homebridge aqara. For the mac part, it should be

12 characters sid can be obtained from the gateway’s MAC address (in lowercase without semicolon).

MissingDLL · March 14, 2017, 8:06am

I did stop homebridge and pasted the sid and key in as follows:

xiaomi:
gateways:

sid: e06066XXXXXX
key: CDFEFXXXXXXXXXXX

Still the same:

@rave Thanks for this software - it’s working great for me so far! Bought you a beer. Enjoy!

rave · March 14, 2017, 10:26am

Check the indentation of the key. Make sure it is the same line as sid. Also, key looks strange. It should be all lowercase if i remembers correctly

MissingDLL · March 14, 2017, 1:47pm

I think the indentation looks good. Also i used the same key and sid for homebridge and everythin works good from within siri/homekit:

Someone any ideas??

KrisRux · March 14, 2017, 2:01pm

please respond. thanks

Lapatoc · March 14, 2017, 2:47pm

Currently managing alarm, getting battery status, managing radio is not supported by HASS component.
Xiaomi should open API first, than push FW update to our Gateways.

nickrout · March 14, 2017, 7:06pm

please mind your manners, thanks.

KrisRux · March 14, 2017, 8:37pm

please and thanks isn’t a good manners ???

abmantis · March 14, 2017, 11:34pm

@rave I have found a way to reproduce the ghost issue! I manually sent the following message to the gateway (the id was valid, not 111):
{“cmd”:“read”,“sid”:111111111111}

Notice that “” is missing around the id! That caused the gateway to stop responding for about 5 seconds (no heartbeats), and after that the sensor was “open”! Could the component be sending an invalid message? I’m not on the latest code due to the following issue, so I may be delayed on fixes: https://github.com/lazcad/homeassistant/issues/28

rave · March 15, 2017, 12:05am

This is a community for an open source software. There are no obligation to response.

“do anyone know the answer?” looks so much better than “please respond, thanks”.

Anyway, read the Readme.md and you’ll know that gateway alarm is not a supported feature. That’s why i didn’t respond to your question.
