I've not maintained this plugin, in a long while as I ended up moving back to homebridge. Please see one of the forks for bug fixes or submit a pull request and I will re-release
Homebridge plugin for DSP w215
Takes advantage of bikerp/dsp-w215-hnap: https://github.com/bikerp/dsp-w215-hnap.
Features
- Includes ability to turn on and off w215 smart switches
- Measures temperature from smart plug
- Measures current device consumption in watts
- Measures device total consumption in kilowatt hours
Install
Setup is straight forward:
npm install -g homebridge-w215
Configuration:
Add the following accessory to your config.json.
{
"accessories": [{
"accessory": "w215",
"name": "Your device name",
"host": "hostname of plug or ip address",
"username": "admin", //default is always admin
"password": "your device pin"
}],
...
}
Issues
Add a github issue and I will look into it. It's early days yet and I just got this working for my own w215 switches.
Notes:
- This accessory plugin does not perform discovery, although that would be great. You have to add it to your config.json. I did consider doing this as a MQTT plugin so that I could use it in both homebridge and smartthings... Maybe in a future life.
- You will not be able to see power consumption in the Home app provided by apple. This is pretty poor really, but if you download eve home, it's a bit more comprehensive. There is also an app in the app store called "Home" that costs £10 that claims to be the most comprehensive... If you're cheap like me, I would go with EVE if you want that kind of information, or use the d-link app to get consumption.
