MMM-xiaomi - Temperature and Humidity from your smarthome

mirko3000

Description

Hi guys,

just made a small module to display temperature and humidity from your Xiaomi smarthome sensors. Pretty basic so far, but hugely helpful to me to monitor heating and ventilation (humidity!).

Screenshots

Sensors look like this and cost around 8 €:

Here a sample from the module:

Good call… that company is going to be making a ton of smart things! :) Great job.

Do you have a link to the module?

barnosch

Great. Looking forward for the module…
Meanwhile i order some of the Xiaomi stuff in China ;)

cxlwill

Great work. But mine keeps looking for gateway. I’m pretty sure that the ip of GW is correct.

Sorry, forgot about the link:

@barnosch, @cxlwill: Did you check the logs? Anything showing up there?

mirko3000

Also it only supports xiaomi temperature sensors, so if you don’t have any registered on your gateway it will not show anything (Keeping in “Connecting to gateway…” mode).

cowboysdude

@mirko3000 Thank you for this!! Exactly what I have been looking for… this is truly awesome!

I would like about 9 of these sensors… do I also need the gateway as well?

barnosch

@cowboysdude : As i read, the Gateway is mandatory.
But as always Xiaomi is really cheap. GW is about 25$ i guess.

I ordered some temp sensors. Can’t wait to test the stuff.

cxlwill

@mirko3000 Well, I have temp&hum sensor and it works well with Home Assistant and Homebridge. So I think the API itself is OK. I will check the log. Nice plugin anyway. Maybe we can extend it to more Xiaomi devices.

I saw the gateway was inexpensive so if I can find a US plug adapter for this I will be ordering the gateway and about 9 of the temp sensors :)

How to figure out the id of the sensor?

mirko3000

Well the IDs show up in your magic mirror - the problem is to identify which ID belongs to which sensor. I guessed them by checking the temperature, still I agree that this is not very convenient so far. Looking out for a better solution…

Albert2002

Thank you for your replay!

When I do so I get a “Connecting to XIAOMI gatway…”
Connecting to XIAOMI gatway..

As far as I understand "ENETUNREACH " means Network unreachable. I can successfully ping the Gatway at 192.168.2.107 via VNC & LX Terminal.
Do I have to set up something on my Gateway first?
Any idea what to do?

This is what my error log says:

I’ve made a completely new Raspian & MM installation. No other modules installed. the default modules disabled in the config.js.

I Still get no connection. Im running the Home Gatewy V3 in Dev mode. Do I have to change any settings on my router or somewhere else?

Right now I get different error messages. Maybe it helps. I would love to see this module running!

Hey Albert,

I think I have solved your issue: not all gateways seem to allow auto-discovery without authentification via a security token. I have added an additional configuration parameter now where you can provide your token:
https://github.com/mirko3000/MMM-xiaomi

Update the module and follow the description at the bottom:
https://github.com/mirko3000/MMM-xiaomi#authentification

Hope that works.

Best regards.

Hi Mirko,

thank you for your work! I really appreciate this!

I’ve updated the module and installed the miio command line tools (with sudo)in the same directory. Or do I Have to install the miio command line tools in a different directory?
How ever, when am running miio command line tools i get

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-xiaomi $ miio --discover
 INFO  Discovering devices. Press Ctrl+C to stop.

Device ID: 52238776
Model info: Unknown 
Address: 192.168.2.107 
Token: ???
Support: Unknown

My id I’ve discovered seams to be a different style then the one in your example.
After this I added the device id to my config:

devices: [{ id: '52238776', name: 'Wohnzimmer' }]

I still see the same as before.

God damnit.
Got a letter from the customs today, that my package from China arrived.
Sadly they are closing Fridays at 2.30pm. The letter arrived at 2.45pm.
So no chance to fetch it anymore.

The whole weekend is now useless!

Let`s see if i have also trouble …

Albert2002

Maybe you can get it tomorrow? Would be great to figure out.

Something crossed my mind. When I set up the Developer mode in the Gateway there is a password too. I know that I need this one for OpenHAB. Maybe I need it for this module as well?

mirko3000

So I just read through the documentation of miio and found this:
https://github.com/aholstenson/miio/blob/master/docs/management.md#getting-the-token-of-a-device
or:
https://github.com/aholstenson/miio/blob/master/docs/management.md#setting-the-token-of-a-device

My device seems to provide the token “via auto-token”, in your case it seems it does not. Maybe try either of the above.

IDs are same with me, maybe my documentation is wrong here.

mirko3000

When I run the discover tool I get the following:

Device ID: 56804143
Model info: Unknown 
Address: 192.168.0.9 (xiaomi-gateway.fritz.box)
Token: cfbdb315c0825ccc971918e36923febe via auto-token
Support: Unknown

Device ID: 158d0001635bb3
Model info: lumi.sensor_ht (sensor)
Address: Owned by 56804143
Token: Automatic via parent device
Support: At least basic
