Homebridge-Rituals

v1 is functional release, ENJOY!!

English|Español

Homebridge Rituals is a homebridge-plugin to manage a Rituals Genie over homebridge infrastructure. Homebridge is a lightweight NodeJS server you can run on your home network that emulates the iOS HomeKit API.

Since Siri supports devices added through HomeKit, this means that with Homebridge you can ask Siri to control devices that don't have any support for HomeKit at all. For instance, using just some of the available plugins, you can say:

With this plugin you can do

Siri, turn on the Genie.
Siri, turn off the Genie.

Before begin, (assumptions)

Your genie has been registered using Official Rituals App.
Your genie is working fine. (obviously)
Your homebridge is working fine and has been added to your home app as bridge. If not, please take a look to Installation from zero.

Restart Homebridge

04. Limitations

It will appears in you home app like a Fan Accessory.
You can control start/stop.
Fan control is not available in this release (see changelog).
You can't see other properties like in the app, maybe later.
The most important limitation, with this very first version you can only manage only 1 genie under the rituals account.

05. Following Features Implementation (Nice to have in the future)

Allow to control FAN rotator speed, Done!
Allow to show battery level information, Done!
Detection of Genie version 1.0 or 2.0 (Genie 2.0 does not have battery, accessory battery not shown)
Added Debug traces
Allow to show the fragance name
Allow to show the fragance quantity remains inside genie ¿?
Allow to manage more than one genie if you can more than one in the same rituals account.

Yeah, many work .. but you can helpme with a coffee ..
