Xiaomi mi wifi plug & air purifier

syssi · July 31, 2017, 12:16pm

Let’s assume both devices (xiaomi gateway and f.e. the air purifier) has nothing in common. Do you still want to merge both lines?

ec-blaster · July 31, 2017, 12:32pm

Well, I don’t know. I still have no gateway (is on the way), but I supposed it would make sense to have a common platform with maybe optional parameters on the configuration, based on the type of device… It was just a suggestion…

syssi · July 31, 2017, 1:24pm

I’m still seeking for good reasons to merge the WiFi components into one platform. I don’t recommend a merge into the xiaomi gateway platform because of the different network protocol (multicast) and the different token/key handling. IMHO the xiaomi gateway and the WiFi devices doesn’t have much in common.

Since @teprrr introduced the “-d info” command it looks like we are able to identify the different devices by a nice model name (f.e. philips.light.bulb, philips.light.ceiling, zhimi.airpurifier.m1). A common component for switches and lights with network discovery and device/feature detection would be awesome.

Did you manage to make it work?
I followed all the steps but when I run the manual to learn a command it gives me a timeout error
File “/config/custom_components/switch/chuangmi_ir.py”, line 67, in _learn_command
Ir_remote.send (“miIO.ir_learn”, {‘key’: str (key)})
File “/config/deps/lib/python3.6/site-packages/miio/miio.py”, line 128, in send
Date, addr = s.recvfrom (1024)
Socket.timeout: timed out

ec-blaster · August 10, 2017, 11:21pm

Yes, I made it work. All you have to do is specify a “timeout” parameter, the same you would use with the broadlink RM switch component. It means the time that the device will wait for you to send it a code from your remote.

Once you put that parameter, everything works as indicated.

@syssi: Hi, can we install this component using hass.io?

syssi · August 14, 2017, 5:55am

I don’t know hass.io. I will check it.

If anyone is interested, i made a Sensor who gets the Air Quality and the current state from the air Purifier:

sensor:
  - platform: command_line
    command: sudo miio --control 192.168.1.215 --method get_prop --params '["mode"]' | awk 'NR==5' | cut -d "\"" -f2
  - platform: command_line
    name: "Xiaomi Airquality"
    command: sudo miio --control 192.168.1.215 --method get_prop --params '["aqi"]' | sed -n '5p' | cut -d " " -f3
    unit_of_measurement: "PM2.5"

Just change the IP

syssi · August 25, 2017, 6:58pm

I’ve updated my xiaomi plug component. It’s called “xiaomi_plug” now as preparation for the future merge into home assistant. Furthermore it uses asyncio now and reacts better on state changes (the switch doesn’t flip back anymore):

Marius · August 26, 2017, 7:59am

Could you post a graph showing air quality? Does it have significant effect on air quality (dust) running the purifier? I am considering buying one myself…

nickground · August 26, 2017, 3:40pm

Hi syssi. Thank you so much for the good work.

This component is not working yet?

fan:

platform: xiaomi_airpurifier
name: Air
host: 192.168.31.33
token: 7811b06e2f616a1d0f6d7898f24ecd46

syssi · August 26, 2017, 3:41pm

It’s just an untested draft. Do you own the device and willing to test the component? I fixed some glitches. Just give it a try and please provide a screenshot if the fan will be shown in the frontend. I’m interested in the provided attributes.

hi
im getting ImportError: No module named ‘zeroconf’`
What can I do? I am running the venv on raspi3
Thanks

syssi · August 28, 2017, 6:37am

There is a dependency missing unfortunately. Enter your virtualenv and install zeroconf manually

su - homeassistant
source /srv/homeassistant/bin/activate
pip3 install zeroconf

and restart home assistant. If “pip install” fails please post the error message. I assume there will be another dependency missing.

hangy · August 28, 2017, 10:03am

ehi @syssi i’ve the chuangmi_ir remote control and i’ve found a beta custom component to use in homeassistant… this is the url of the component: https://github.com/homeassistantchina/custom_components/tree/master/custom_components/switch

but it doesn’t work… can you please take a look? sorry but i know you are very good

syssi · August 28, 2017, 10:41am

Are there any error messages (home-assistant.log)? Could you provide some more details about your issue. What did you try?

kwetiaw · August 28, 2017, 12:28pm

it’s working! I still couldnt believe it!
thanks for your help, very much appreciated!

Hi syssi,

I installed the mirobo package and add the Fan to my config.
There is no error in HA log but the frontend keeps just loading like the below.
