Thanks to this thread, I’ve been able to link domoticz temp sensors, switches and thermostat with home assistant with the help of this thread. I’m used a more generic approach, if this can help.
For temperature sensors, I’ve an automation which rewrote domoticz/out to some "/home/…idx…/temp topic like this:
- alias: DZ temp
trigger:
- platform: mqtt
topic: 'domoticz/out'
condition:
condition: template
value_template: '{{ trigger.payload_json.dtype == "Temp" }}'
action:
- service: mqtt.publish
data_template:
topic: 'home/sensor/{{ trigger.payload_json.idx }}/temp'
payload_template: '{{ trigger.payload_json.svalue1 }}'
I’ve another similar automation for Temp & Humidity.
After you can create an ha sensor like this:
- platform: mqtt
state_topic: 'home/sensor/123/temp' ...
I’ve make the same for switches, for switches I’ve also an automation to rewrote messages to domoticz/in. A dz switch is configured like this:
- platform: mqtt
name: "..."
command_topic: "home/switch/12345/power"
state_topic: "home/switch/12345/state"
payload_on: "On"
payload_off: "Off"
qos: 1
retain: true
A first script read domoticz/out to rewrote states from dz:
- alias: DZ input
trigger:
- platform: mqtt
topic: 'domoticz/out'
condition:
condition: template
value_template: '{{ trigger.payload_json.dtype == "Light/Switch" }}'
action:
- service: mqtt.publish
data_template:
topic: 'home/switch/{{ trigger.payload_json.idx }}/state'
payload_template: '{% if trigger.payload_json.nvalue == 1 %} On {% else %} Off {% endif %}'
And a second one rewrote power topic to domoticz/in topic and expected payload:
- alias: DZ switch send value as dz expect
trigger:
- platform: mqtt
topic: 'home/switch/+/power'
action:
- service: mqtt.publish
data_template:
topic: 'domoticz/in'
payload_template: '{"command": "switchlight", "idx": {{ trigger.topic.split("/")[-2] }}, "switchcmd": "{{ trigger.payload }}" }'
Same principle for thermostat
climate:
- platform: mqtt
name: Thermostat confort
temperature_command_topic: 'home/thermostat/18/target'
temperature_state_topic: 'home/thermostat/18/state'
And:
- alias: thermostat get value
trigger:
- platform: mqtt
topic: 'domoticz/out'
condition:
condition: template
value_template: '{{ trigger.payload_json.dtype == "Thermostat" }}'
action:
- service: mqtt.publish
data_template:
topic: 'home/thermostat/{{ trigger.payload_json.idx }}/state'
payload_template: '{{ trigger.payload_json.svalue1 }}'
- alias: dz resend values
trigger:
- platform: mqtt
topic: 'home/thermostat/+/target'
action:
- service: mqtt.publish
data_template:
topic: 'domoticz/in'
payload_template: '{"command": "udevice", "idx": {{ trigger.topic.split("/")[-2] }}, "svalue": "{{ trigger.payload }}"}'
I think this principle can be used for other devices type.
Your domoticz managed devices can be imported in your ha installation. As I’ve an old but fully stable domoticz setup working, this is really nice for me to be able to get those devices in ha.
I need to run Domoticz aside HA for my switches for now. Your mqtt script works partially for my switches, when switching on the switch goes off in HA again but the light stays on. Any hint for this?
Thanks in advance for any feedback
