homebridge-owfs

This is a plugin for the DS18B20 temperature sensors but also for DS2408 and DS2403 (switches). As Pre-requisite, you need to have OWFS installed on your RPi. From version 1.1.0, this plugin relies on OWSERVER protocol to poll 1-wire devices (previous versions used owfs directly through fs access).

Installation

sudo npm install -g homebridge-owfs
