I am very new to Home Assistant but managed to get basic integration of Hue and Synology Surveillance Station working. Now I want to integrate my existing Gigaset Elements System (a couple of door/window-, motion-sensors). I have found these two sites: https://github.com/dynasticorpheus/gigasetelements-cli and https://github.com/ycardon/gigaset-elements-proxy. But I have no clue to begin with, so I need help. Can someone provide me with step by step instructions?
I was able to install the the gigaset-elemts-proxy, but I still have problems with mqtt.
This is what I had to do (now I can see the incoming sensor data in the command line).
Installed Raspbian Stretch Lite on a Pi Zero W (SD Card 8GB)
Updated everything (use: “sudo apt-get update” and “sudo apt-get upgrade”)
Install git and npm (use: “sudo apt-get install git” and “sudo apt-get install npm”)
“sudo nano config/default.yaml” (did not know how to use vim)
edit this file to yours needs (login data from gigaset)
Press CTRL+X to save and close this file (Y to confirm)
“sudo apt-get install git”
After this I receive sensor data, but I don’t know where it publishes the mqtt data.
Unfortunately there is not documention about how or where to configurate the MQTT settings, like Server IP, user and password.
