homebridge-bme680
Bosch BME680 temperature/humidity/VOC/barometric pressure sensor service plugin for Homebridge.
- Display of temperature, humidity and air quality score from a BME680 connected to a RaspberryPI.
Uses bme680-sensor
Uses the algorithm used by pimoroni in their bme680-sensor-air-quality-example to compute the air quality score
Installation
- Install Homebridge using
npm install -g homebridge
- Install this plugin
npm install -g homebridge-bme680
- Update your configuration file - see below for an example
Connect the BME680 chip to the I2C bus
Enable I2C on the RaspberryPI by going to the RaspberryPI's RaspberryPi Configuration
page and checking the Enable I2C
checkbox.
Configuration
accessory
: "BME680"name
: descriptive namename_temperature
(optional): descriptive name for the temperature sensorname_humidity
(optional): descriptive name for the humidity sensorname_air_quality
(optional): descriptive name for the air quality sensorrefresh
: Optional, time interval for refreshing data in seconds, defaults to 60 seconds.options
: options for bme680-sensor
If you get an I/O error, make sure the I2C address is correct (usually 0x76 or 0x77 depending on a jumper).
Example configuration:
"accessories": [
{
"accessory": "BME680",
"name": "Sensor",
"name_temperature": "Temperature",
"name_humidity": "Humidity",
"options": {
"i2cBusNo": 1,
"i2cAddress": "0x76"
}
}
]
This plugin creates three services: TemperatureSensor, HumiditySensor and AirQualitySensor.

Future plans
- Add support for pressure sensor (this is already somewhat supported, but you can't see it in the Home app). Will try to get the Home+ 5 app which supposedly Pressure sensor displays
