[!NOTE] Maintainer's pledge: This plugin is "sort of" stable in what it does. There are many improvements that I'd like to include and that the community is asking for. And I can't wait to solve them all. However, I'm a father of 2 kids (1 and 3 y/o), so my availability is spare (apologies for not being as active as I'd love to).

I prioritize hot-fixes and compatibility issues (like the recent Homebridge v2 upgrade works). My "closer" roadmap is detailed in #966.

I'm happy to review any contributions. So PRs are more than welcome.

This plugin is only able to integrate with devices linked to the Mi Home app. Devices controlled via the Roborock app change their authentication and methods and are currently not supported by this plugin. Refer to #104 for more information.

Homebridge plugin for Xiaomi / Roborock Vacuum Cleaner's

This homebridge plugin allows you to control the Xiaomi vacuum robots in your Apple Home App (HomeKit).

It is currently presented in the Home App in the form of a Fan because Apple doesn't officially support Vacuums in Homekit (we can't wait for this moment to arrive)! Refer to #934 to know more about that.

For the underlying communication layer, it uses a port of the no-longer maintained library miio. You'll find the code in the directory ./miio.

Features

• Fan as On-/Off-Switch. When switching off, directly back to the charging station.
  • Fanspeed levels adjustable via 3D Touch / Force Touch.
• Battery status and condition in the device details. Low battery alert.
• Pause switch (optional).
• Room cleaning (optional): Read Room cleaning to understand how it works.
• Zone cleaning (optional).
• Occupancy sensor (similar to motion sensor) for dock status (optional).
• Second Fan for water box modes (optional).
  • Watermode levels only when enabled in config, and the device supports it.

Instructions

1. Install the plugin as root (sudo su -) with npm install -g homebridge-xiaomi-roborock-vacuum@latest --unsafe-perm.
2. Customize you homebridge configuration config.json.
3. Restart homebridge, ggf. service homebridge restart.

Room cleaning

This plugin supports Room cleaning (only models that support room cleaning via the Xiaomi Mi Home app). Keep reading to understand how it works and how to set it up.

How it works

To start the Room Clean Mode, you can enable/disable the room switches in the order that they need to be cleaned. Then turn on the main Fan switch to start the actual cleaning.

If you want your robot to start cleaning after you enable/disable the room switches, use the config parameter roomTimeout to set the number of seconds the robot should wait before starting (this is to allow you to find the other rooms you want to set ON/OFF).

How can I set it up

Semi automatic

This feature seems to work with all models which offer room cleaning, but may not work on newer firmware versions (3.5.8_0358 or newer). To use it:

1. Set the autoroom property in the config to an array of room names (["my room 1", "my room 2", "my room 3"].
2. In the Xiaomi Mi app, setup a timer at midnight (00:00 or 12:00am).
3. Enable Select a room to divide.
4. On the map select the rooms in the order as they appear in the config set in step 1. The order is important as this is how the plugin maps the room names to IDs.
5. Submit the timer and make sure it's deactivated.
6. Restart homebridge.

Fully automatic

This feature seems to be working on models that support naming the rooms in the Xiaomi / Roborock App. This is known to include the Roborock S6 as well as the S4 with firmware version 3.5.8_0358 or newer.

Even if you have one of these models but you haven't named the Rooms in your App yet, this function will not work! Thanks @domeOo

Go to Location

This plugin allows you to send your vacuum to a specific point on the map. As there is no easy way of figuring out the coordinates of your desired location, here are some steps to help you find the right spot.

1. The base location (typically the position of the dock when the map was created) is at [25500,25500] where these values are in the format [x-axis/horizontal, y-axis/vertical].
2. Increasing the first value results in going to the top of the map, increasing the second value results in going to the right of the map (as displayed inside the app). The value seems to be in Millimeters.
3. Knowing this you can approximate the desired location and change it as follows. In our example we want to go one meter up and three meters to the right: [25500,25500] --> [26500,28500].
4. While testing this location you can review the position in your app under Go To to fine tune it.

Xiaomi Token

To use this plugin, you have to read the "token" of the xiaomi vacuum robots. Here are some detailed instructions:

• :us::gb: - Xiaomi cloud tokens extractor
• :us::gb: - python-miio - Getting started
• :de: - Apple HomeKit Forum - HomeKit.Community
• :de: - Homematic-Guru.de
• :de: - Tutorial with token extractor - simon42.com

NOTE: We are not currently aware of how to retrieve the token from the Roborock App. Please, share any findings in the issue #104.

Is my model supported?

As new users join our community, and use this plugin, we try to learn from their device, and keep up with the new devices Xiaomi releases. However, the main developer @afharo, only owns the model S5, and he can't test the features on other models. If you wonder whether your device is supported, please:

1. Check the models.ts file to see if your device is already in the explicit list.
2. If not, maybe it matches the default behaviour (just try running the plugin and see if it works).
   1. If it works, but the vacuum modes (aka speeds) are wrong: add your model to the list in 1 with the right mapping.
   2. If it doesn't work, please, try making sure the IP and token are correct, by running the command miio-vacuum inspect id-or-address --token tokenAsHex.
      HINT: Try a couple of times, just in case there's a network glitch.
   3. If you can connect and see the details of your robot, try running the manual commands like explained in here.
      HINT: You can find the list of commands for your device in the Python project python-miio.

My model is, allegedly, supported, but it fails to connect

Run the command miio-vacuum inspect id-or-address --token tokenAsHex, replacing id-or-address with your vacuum's IP address and the tokenAsHex with a HEX representation of the token obtained earlier.
