Zigbee2MQTT 🐝🌉🔨
Allows you to use your Zigbee devices without the vendor's bridge or gateway.
It bridges events and allows you to control your Zigbee devices via MQTT. In this way you can integrate your Zigbee devices with whatever smart home infrastructure you are using.
| Compatible | Integrations | Open Source |
|---|---|---|
| Zigbee2MQTT supports various Zigbee adapters and a big bunch of devices. | Zigbee2MQTT integrates well with most home automation solutions because it uses MQTT. | Zigbee2MQTT is licenced under the free GNU General Public License 3. |
Setup
You need to have a mqtt broker like eclipse mosquitto running to use this app.
Configuration of the Zigbee adapter
For USB apdaters you can use dmesg command on Linux hosts to find the mounted device. Where possible you should use the /dev/serial/by-id/ path of the stick, instead of /dev/tty*. This is because the /dev/tty* path can change - for example /dev/ttyACM0 may become /dev/ttyACM1 and then later back to /dev/ttyACM0. The /dev/serial/by-id/ path won't change.
The usb device path must be set in the settings of the app before installing.
Integrations
Zigbee2MQTT integrates well with (almost) every home automation solution because it uses MQTT. However the following integrations are worth mentioning:
