This adapter uses Sentry libraries to automatically report exceptions and code errors to the developers. For more details and for information how to disable the error reporting see Sentry-Plugin Documentation! Sentry reporting is used starting with js-controller 3.0.

ESPHome adapter for ioBroker

Control your ESP8266/ESP32 with simple yet powerful configuration files created and managed by ESPHome. Native integration of ESPHome managed device (Including Dashboard) by its native API and ensures all data is synchronized (live-event handling, no data polling ! :)

Logo

This adapter uses the esphome-native-api with all credits to @Nafaya to interact with ESPHome API!

Prerequisites

* NodeJS >= 18.x
* API is activated in YAML
* For admin tabs (optional)
    * ESPHome Dashboard IP is provided in instance settings

Using the built-in ESPHome Dashboard

You can either use an external installation of ESPHome (like docker) or activate the ESPHome Dashboard process included in this adapter.
In any case, it is possible to integrate the dashboard into ioBroker Admin interface, for this purpose you must specify the ip where the Dashboard is running

Logo

[!IMPORTANT] is currently not possible to show the ESPHome DashBoard integrated in ioBroker when https is enabled, see #159

How to use this adapter

Activate API in YAML

[!IMPORTANT] ioBroker ESPHome allows to integrate Devices by Encryption Key (recommended) or API-Password (legacy), you must specify your authentication settings accordingly, see ESPHome Documentation Please only configure Encryption Key (preferable) or API-Password (legacy)

Example Encryption Key configuration entry
api:
  encryption:
    key: "DyDfEgDzmA9GlK6ZuLkj3qgFcjXiZUzUf4chnIcjQto="
Example API configuration entry
api:
  password: 'MyPassword'

Add / Modify / Remove ESPHome devices to ioBroker

[!IMPORTANT] This adapter integrates communication with ESPHome capable devices and (if activated) an integrated version of ESPHome Dashboard. You must configure and upload your ESP configuration by yourself, either by using the integrated Dashboard or an external alternative (like Docker) before they can be integrated to ioBroker

The device Tab will show all current known devices; you can either wait for Devices to be autodetect (currently disabled, see #175) or add them manually by providing their IP-Address and credentials

DevicesTab

[!NOTE] Buttons to add/modify/remove devices and load device table are only available if adapter is running! You must refresh the device table manually by pressing "Refresh device Overview", all devices and their connection state will be shown

Please enter IP-Address (if a device is already known, you can select it from the dropdown) and choose the proper actions:

  • ADD / Modify Devices

    • Will send IP address and credentials to the backend and try to establish a connection
    • When an encryption Key is provided, API-Password is ignored, please ensure proper YAML configuration!
  • Delete Device

    • Will send a message to the backend to remove this device

[!WARNING] This action will remove a selected device and all its related states from ioBroker!

[!NOTE] After a device has been added, a message will be indicated if successfully or error, you can refresh the table to show current devices and their connection status

DevicesError DevicesOK

If connection was successfully, the Device will be initiated and all related states created to control their attributes.
When making any changes to your YAML configuration, reboot of the ESP will disconnect and initiate a new connection.
During this process, states not part anymore of YAML configuration will be automatically removed.

DevicesOK

Tasmota / ESPEasy migration

Migrating from previous Sonoff Tasmota or ESPEasy setups is very easy. You just need to have ESPHome create a binary for you and then upload that in the web interface.
See for more details on our Docu Page
