Installation
- Install homebridge by following the instructions.
- Install this plugin by running
npm install -g homebridge-shelly
. - Add the configuration to your homebridge config.json.
Configuration
In most cases, simply adding this plugin to the homebridge config.json will be enough:
"platforms": [
{
"platform": "Shelly",
"name": "Shelly"
}
]
Your Shelly devices will then be automatically discovered, as long as they are on the same network and subnet as the device running homebridge.
To see a list of all discovered devices, visit the administration page by going
to http://<IP-ADDRESS>:<PORT>/
, where IP-ADDRESS is the IP address of the
device that you are running homebridge on, and PORT is the configured port
number (8080 by default, see below).
Network interface
Sometimes setting the "networkInterface"
option to the local IP address of
your device will help when your devices aren't automatically discovered, or
you see error messages like addMembership EADDRNOTAVAIL
or
addMembership EADDRINUSE
.
Authentication
Set the "username"
and "password"
options if you have restricted the web
interface with a username and password. Note that this configuration applies
to all Shelly devices.
Request timeout
The "requestTimeout"
option can be used to configure the timeout for HTTP
requests to the Shelly devices. Specify in milliseconds. Default is 10 seconds.
Stale timeout
Use the "staleTimeout"
option to configure how long a device can be offline
before it is regarded as stale and unregistered from HomeKit. Specify in
milliseconds. Set to 0
or false
to disable. Disabled by default.
Administration interface
By default, this plugin will launch an HTTP server on port 8080 to serve an
administration interface. You can disable this by setting "admin"."enabled"
to false
. You can also change the port number using "admin"."port"
.
Device specific configurations
Configurations for specific Shelly devices can be set using the "devices"
array. Each object in the array must contain an "id"
property with the ID of
the Shelly device that you want to target. IDs are always made up of 6
hexadecimal characters and can be found in the Shelly Cloud app or the web
interface of a device, under Settings -> Device info -> Device ID.
General configurations
"exclude"
- set totrue
to exclude the device from Homebridge."username"
and"password"
- set these if you have restricted the web interface of the device with a username and password. This will override the global"username"
and"password"
options."name"
- sets a custom name for the device.
Shelly switch configurations
Applies to Shelly 1, 1PM, 2 and 2.5 in relay mode, 4Pro, EM, Plug and Plug S.
"type"
- sets the type of accessory the device is identified as. Available types are"contactSensor"
,"motionSensor"
,"occupancySensor"
,"outlet"
,"switch"
(default) and"valve"
.
Shelly 2.5 configurations
"type"
- in roller mode, the device can be identified as either"door"
,"garageDoorOpener"
,"window"
or"windowCovering"
(default).
Shelly RGBW2 configurations
"colorMode"
- set to"rgbw"
(default) to have HomeKit control all four channels of the device (R, G, B, and W), or to"rgb"
to omit the W channel.
Example configuration
"platforms": [
{
"platform": "Shelly",
"name": "Shelly",
"username": "admin",
"password": "pa$$word",
"devices": [
{ "id": "74B5A3", "exclude": true },
{ "id": "A612F0", "username": "admin", "password": "pa$$word2" },
{ "id": "6A78BB", "colorMode": "rgb" },
{ "id": "AD2214", "name": "My Device" },
{ "id": "1D56AF", "type": "outlet" }
],
"admin": {
"enabled": true,
"port": 8181
}
}
]
Unsupported devices
If you have a Shelly device that is not yet supported by this plugin you can help adding support for it by following these steps:
- Run
$ homebridge-shelly describe <ip-address>
with the IP address of the Shelly device. - Create a new issue and post the output from the previous command.
