Hello,
I built a Home Assistant integration for Jeedom users who want the best of both worlds: keep Jeedom’s device management while unlocking Home Assistant’s UI and automation power—connected via MQTT.
Highlights
1) MQTT Device Bridge
- Exposes Jeedom devices to Home Assistant via MQTT
- Keeps existing Jeedom device settings intact
- Full control and monitoring from HA
2) Dual‑Environment Workflow
- Jeedom stays the device hub
- Home Assistant handles UI, dashboards, templates, and automation
- A pragmatic hybrid that leverages both ecosystems
3) Smooth Transition
- Choose between MQTT entities mode or native Jeedom entities mode
- Minimal configuration on Jeedom (just enable MQTT for the devices you want)
- Simple naming overrides via YAML for clean entity IDs
Why This Integration?
For Jeedom users who want to:
- Try Home Assistant without abandoning Jeedom
- Improve dashboards, automation logic, and notifications
- Keep stable device tracking across reboots
How It Works
- Uses MQTT for event/state transport
- Builds persistent entities that restore state after HA restarts
Getting Started
Compatible with:
- Existing Jeedom installs
- Home Assistant setups
- MQTT‑enabled devices
- Any Jeedom device exposed over MQTT
Mapping
Currently Supported Domains in This Integration:
- binary_sensor - Binary sensors (motion, presence, door/window sensors)
- climate - Climate devices (thermostats)
- cover - Cover devices (shutters, blinds, curtains)
- light - Light devices (lights, switches)
- number - Number entities (sliders, numeric inputs)
- select - Select entities (dropdown menus)
- sensor - Sensor devices (temperature, humidity, etc.)
- switch - Switch devices (on/off switches)
- water_heater - Water heater devices (ballon d’eau chaude)
Future
The integration is modular and open to community input. If there’s interest, I’m happy to publish it on GitHub for everyone to use and improve.
Already published on Github!
