Zigbee2mqtt: Merging

[oskarn97]

Hey!
I'd like to merge with your fork since it's very well maintained and it only makes sense to have a version working together.
The one I built was especially made for use with FHEM Home automation system, so I'd need to add a few endpoints to work with that.

Especially:

• Starting the paring process through MQTT
• Request all paired devices for auto creation (with sensor type)

Would that work for you?

Pinging also @starkun that had a more advanced fork from AndrewLinden/xiaomi-zb2mqtt

[Koenkk]

Yes! Note that starting the pairing process through MQTT is already possible: https://github.com/Koenkk/zigbee2mqtt/wiki/MQTT-topics-and-message-structure#zigbee2mqttbridgeconfigpermit_join

[oskarn97]

Cool! Could you also merge the ZCL-Packet fork to support Xiaomi Battery Status Messages?

[Koenkk]

It's already there: https://github.com/Koenkk/zcl-packet

[oskarn97]

Yes, I did a PR on that to support decoding Aqara Battery Messages. Or did you manage to do that otherwise?

[tb-killa]

Look : https://github.com/Koenkk/zcl-packet/commit/d5128f0fb2f1adf707e582a7b469af6dfed37426

[oskarn97]

Yeah, still does not support Battery messages from some devices like aqara magnets which are using EP Id 65282 and another message format.

[Koenkk]

@oskarn97 thanks for clarification, will do some tests and merge!

[oskarn97]

Thanks! I am not sure if it was the Mi or Aqara Magnets. One of them.
Just keep your eyes open for EP ID 65282 which will be undefined by default.

@oskarn97 Hi, Oskar.
Cluster 65282 always parsed like attrValStruct but not set - look this patch https://github.com/kirovilya/zcl-packet/commit/a2b39c1b5239317bf8cd58ebf665319a5c039456
And get it here in common xiaomi parsers https://github.com/Koenkk/zigbee-shepherd-converters/blob/master/converters/fromZigbee.js#L50
So, all work fine :)

[oskarn97]

Ahh, nice - thanks for clarification!

[Koenkk]

So everything is ok already?

[oskarn97]

For battery yes - I'll check now what else I need in order to get it working with fhem :)

[oskarn97]

Could you add a endpoint that sends a list of all paired devices with iEEE address and modelId and also a publish if a new device joins the network?
That's all I need to make the FHEM module work with this fork :)

[tb-killa]

For info about device state (like join) look here : https://github.com/Koenkk/zigbee2mqtt/issues/13

[Koenkk]

Both features are added: https://github.com/Koenkk/zigbee2mqtt/wiki/MQTT-topics-and-message-structure#zigbee2mqttbridgelog

[oskarn97]

Thanks a lot! I've closed my fork and updated the FHEM plugin to work with yours.

[Koenkk]

@oskarn97 great!
