Thanks for that. House maintenance day today but I should be able to give that a shot tomorrow night!
no need to thank me, you did all the work, I just combines the sensors 
i am a little stuckā¦
- I installed all the requirements
- got the monitor.py running
but all it shows is ā2020-05-09 10:43:00,354 MainThread INFO: log_level set to: INFOā
and nothing else after that, what do i need to do?
do i need to connect the igrill to my pi through Bluetooth setup? i tried but cant do it.
running pi3b (python 2.7.16) and igrill2
I am sure its the Bluetooth connection to the igrill, the blue light stops blinkimg when i start monitor.py, but starts blinking again soon.
OK got it goingā¦ tried a different pi, turned bluetooth on and off, then it worked. sweet project thanks.
Seems to work a treat. Thank you!
Followed @war1000ās guide, on a RPi 3B, however just doesnāt seem to work.
Initially getting connect/disconnects on the MQTT side of hass.io, so made it anonymous. That seemed to solve that, however the BT LED on the iGrill2 seems to go solid for a bit, then flashing.
Canāt get my head around why itās not staying connected to the Pi
./monitor.py -l debug stops at āSending key of all 0āsā - could that be an issue?
Have cleared the iGrill from my phone BT.
Tried the suggestions at https://github.com/bendikwa/igrill#troubleshooting, AutoEnable was already true, and the second line wasnāt there in /lib/udev/rules.d/90-pi-bluetooth.rules.
.
Thoughts?
EDIT:
Started again from scratch, gave it its own MQTT username/password. Now get this on Mosquitto:

But it stopped again, and went back to disconnected/sleeping loop.
Tried it with a fresh SD card of Raspbian (not Lite) - pairing via the desktop just times out, but the blue light on the iGrill2 goes solid.
So the line in the troubleshooting section is:
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="bluetooth", KERNEL=="hci[0-9]*", RUN+="/bin/hciconfig %k up"
whereas mine was:
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="bluetooth", KERNEL=="hci[0-9]", TAG+="systemd", ENV{SYSTEMD_WANTS}+="bthelper@%k.service"
Commented it out anyway and it seems to be working now, after a few restarts of the Pi and the iGrill2!
Has anyone else passed sensor values through to Google Assistant?
Iāve rebuilt a few times and even ordered a new pi zero. Is anyone successfully running this on a zero w?
I plan to give it another crack, as the BT range on my iGrill is less than I need, so would love to get it working with HA.
Iām going to test this on the weekend, can give you some feedback on my progress if you like.
Hi,
I have managed to install the Igrill integration on new dedicated Pizero with monitor.py running continuously. Seems to be working very stable. As soon as I power on my Igrill2 its reconnected to Pizero via BT and starts to pass on values via wifi/mqtt to my HA running on a PI-4, even when the Igrill2 may have been offline for a week or so.
Just trying to figure out a good way to monitor that the pizero is in a good health - I have considered glances but seems to be quite cpu intensive on a pi-zero.
I just installed it on a Pi Zero W. Hereās a quick quide how I did it:
Install required packages:
sudo apt-get update && upgrade
sudo apt install git python3-pip
Clone Repo:
git clone https://github.com/bendikwa/igrill.git
Install iGrill Requirements:
pip3 install -r igrill/requirements.txt
Create config dir:
mkdir igrill/config
Create MQTT config file:
nano igrill/config/mqtt.yaml
Add the following:
mqtt:
host: ip-of-mqtt-server
port: 1883
keepalive: 60
auth:
username: 'username'
password: 'password'
Turn on the iGrill device and get the MAC address with:
sudo hcitool lescan
Create Device config file:
nano igrill/config/device.yaml
Add the following:
devices:
- name: 'Kugelgrill'
type: 'igrill_v2'
address: 'AB:12:CD:34:EF:56'
topic: 'temperatur/grill'
interval: 20
Start app:
igrill/monitor.py -c igrill/config
You should now see the values getting published to the topic ātemperatur/grillā.
To continually run the app as a service in the background, create a file called igrill.service:
sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/igrill.service
Add the following content:
[Unit]
Description=igrill MQTT service
After=network.target
[Service]
Type=simple
Restart=always
RestartSec=2
User=pi
ExecStart=/usr/bin/python /home/pi/igrill/monitor.py -c /home/pi/igrill/config
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
Test the service:
sudo systemctl start igrill
sudo systemctl status igrill
Restart the service:
sudo systemctl stop igrill
sudo systemctl restart igrill
Enable service to run on boot:
sudo systemctl enable igrill
sudo reboot now
I get the following error when trying to run the igrill app:
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ igrill/monitor.py -c igrill/config
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "igrill/monitor.py", line 8, in <module>
from config import Config
File "/home/pi/igrill/config.py", line 1, in <module>
from builtins import object
ImportError: No module named builtins
did you install the requirements?
What does pip3 list show?
$ pip3 list
Package Version

asn1crypto 0.24.0
bluepy 1.3.0
certifi 2018.8.24
chardet 3.0.4

yamlreader 3.0.4
I also notice when looking further up into the install of the requirements text, the following error. Have several:
The scripts futurize and pasteurize are installed in ā/home/pi/.local/binā which is not on PATH.
Consider adding this directory to PATH or, if you prefer to suppress this warning, use --no-warn-script-location.
What do you get when you enter python --version? It should be something with 3.xx
I have rasperry pi running hassos. I would like to have this running on the same device. What is the best way to get this running?
Itās showing version 2.7.6??
Iām going to start over again and make sure I use pip3 for everything.
Thatās why itās not working, itās using the wrong python version. No need to start over.
This command should fix it.
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python3.7 1
That seems to work! Thank you. Now I just need to figure out how to get the MQTT readings, as theyāre not showing up. Is my formatting of my mqtt.yaml correct?
mqtt:
host: 192....
port: 1883
keepalive: 60
auth:
username: 'igrill'
password: 'XxXxXxXx'
Your formatting is correct.
Do you have a user āigrillā configured in your mqtt broker?
By the way, you donāt need to hide this ip-address as it is a local ip address, no one can get access to your network through this
