This work is forked from https://github.com/jmaferreira/homebridge-garage-remote-http.
Fixed a bug, where calling "close the garagedoor" on already closed door actually opens them. - by Bydga
Description
This homebridge plugin exposes a web-based garage opener to Apple's HomeKit. Using simple HTTP requests, the plugin allows you to open/close the garage. It works as a general purpose HTTP client for any relay, but it works particularly well with a Shelly 1 relay.
Installation
- Install Homebridge.
- Install the plugin by running
npm install -g homebridge-garage-door-shelly1
or by searching forhomebridge-garage-door-shelly1
on the plugins tab if you are using Homebridge UI or Hoobs. - Update your Homebridge
config.json
accordingly.
Configuration
NOTE: Don't forget to update shelly_ip
to the IP address of your Shelly relay.

Door open/closed sensor
In order to know for sure if your gate is open or closed you need to install a Reed Switch sensor connected between L
and SW
(order is irrelevant). These cost between €2 and €5.
For Shelly 1 and a normally open reed switch (NO) the following options need to be set:
"accessories": [
{
...
"statusKey": "$.inputs[0].input",
"statusValueOpen": "0",
"statusValueClosed": "1"
...
}
]
For a normally closed switch (NC), use:
"accessories": [
{
...
"statusKey": "$.inputs[0].input",
"statusValueOpen": "1",
"statusValueClosed": "0"
...
}
