Homebridge-midea-platform NPM

homebridge-midea-platform

Verified plugin for Midea devices. This is implemented by building on the Homebridge platform plugin template and the work done by @georgezhao2010 in the midea_ac_lan project for Home Assistant. Also thanks to the work done by @mill1000 in the midea-msmart (msmart-ng) project.

Pull requests and/or other offers of development assistance gratefully received.

More information can be found in the wiki.

Installation

Option 1: Install via Homebridge Config UI X:

Search for "midea" in homebridge-config-ui-x and install homebridge-midea-platform.

Option 2: Manually Install:

sudo npm install -g homebridge-midea-platform

Midea device status is retrieved over your Local Area Network (LAN) and credentials are obtained from the Midea cloud services over the internet. While the plugin maintains a status cache, use of Homebridge child bridge is strongly encouraged. As noted below in the network resiliency section, this plugin will make multiple attempts to fulfill a request if necessary, which can take time.

Configuration

Homebridge Config UI X

Homebridge Config UI X is the easiest and strongly recommended way to configure this plugin.

You should use the UI to discover and add devices. More information on the settings can be found in the Settings section below.
