# Tasmota
|
|
|
|
This plugin allows to make use of Tasmota devices via the nymea internal MQTT broker. There is no external MQTT broker needed.
|
|
|
|
Note that Sonoff devices must be flashed with the Tasmota sofware and connected to the WiFi network in order to work with this plugin.
|
|
|
|
See the [Tasmota wiki](https://tasmota.github.io/docs/#/Home) for a list of all supported devices and instructions on how to
|
|
install Tasmota on those. Virtually any ESP8266 or ESP8285 can be flashed.
|
|
|
|
After flashing Tasmota to a Sonoff device and connecting it to WiFi, it can be added to nymea. The only required
|
|
thing is the IP address to the device. This plugin will create a new isoloated MQTT channel on the nymea internal
|
|
MQTT broker and provision login details to the Tasmota device via HTTP. Once that is successful, the Tasmota device
|
|
will connect to the MQTT broker and appear as connected in nymea.
|
|
|
|
## Plugin properties
|
|
When adding a Tasmota device it will add a new Gateway type device representing the Tasmota device itself. In addition
|
|
to that a power switch device will appear which can be used to control the switches in the Tasmota device. Upon
|
|
device setup, the user can optionally select the type of the connected hardware, (e.g. a light, roller shutter or blind) which
|
|
causes this plugin to create an additional device in the system which also controls the switches inside the Tasmota device and nicely
|
|
integrates with the nymea:ux for the given device type.
