Sample Configuration

The PSK (Pre-Shared Key) can be found printed on the bottom of the IKEA Trådfri Gateway. This plugin makes use of coap-client which is part of libcoap.

The plugin comes with prebuilt x86-64 binaries for macOS and Linux. There is no need to compile coap-client if this is what you're using. If not, you'll need to compile coap-client yourself and use the config property coapClientPath to point to the location of the coap-client binary.

"platforms": [{
    "platform" : "Tradfri",

    "psk" : "23asqw9123j33",
    "coapClientPath": "/usr/local/bin/coap-client" // OPTIONAL: See above
}],
