Arduino Home Assistant integration

ArduinoHA allows to integrate an Arduino/ESP based device with Home Assistant using MQTT. The library is designed to use as little resources (RAM/flash) as possible. Initially it was optimized to work on Arduino Uno with Ethernet Shield, but I successfully use it on ESP8266/ESP8255 boards in my projects.

Features

  • MQTT discovery (device is added to the Home Assistant panel automatically)
  • MQTT Last Will and Testament
  • Support for custom MQTT messages (publishing and subscribing)
  • Auto reconnect with MQTT broker
  • Reporting availability (online/offline states) of a device

Supported HA types

  • Binary sensors
  • Covers
  • Fans
  • Device triggers
  • Switches
  • Sensors
  • Tag scanner
  • HVACs (side note: HVACs requires more flash size than other HA types. It's not suitable for Arduino Nano/Uno)

Examples

Tested boards

  • Arduino Uno
  • Arduino Mega
  • NodeMCU
  • ESP-01
  • Generic ESP8266/ESP8255
  • Arduino Nano 33 IoT (SAMD)

Tested devices

  • Controllino Maxi (standard/pure/automation/power)
  • Controllino Mega (standard/pure)
  • Sonoff Dual R2
  • Sonoff Basic
  • Sonoff Mini
  • Tuya Wi-Fi switch module
  • Tuya Wi-Fi curtain module

Tested Arduino Shields

  • Arduino Ethernet Shield (WizNet W5100)

Roadmap

  • FAQ + Home Assistant setup instructions
  • Documentation of the library
  • Unit tests
  • Reduce flash memory usage
  • Add support for HA lights

Unsupported features

The library doesn't support all features of the MQTT integration. If you need support for a new feature please open a new issue in the repository.
