pimatic-Dooya - DOOYA-DC Retractable Sunshade Awning Cover

---

Hi!
I’ve been looking for a way to control a DOOYA motor from Apple homekit for a very long time. If I misunderstood using your add-on you can control the motor, unfortunately I’m not very good at how to set it up. I can ask you more information for installation.
thank

I guess you are talking about https://pimatic.org/plugins/pimatic-dooya/ right? This won’t work out of the box as the DooyaRemoteDevice isn’t recognized by pimatic-hap.
Did you manage to get the dooya plugin working yet? Then it just needs a little update to be supported by HomeKit.

I couldn’t help myself and updated the plugin and created a pull request which makes it possible to add a shutter device to the frontend and adds support for Homekit. Now it’s up to the maintainer of the project, to create a new release with these changes.

Very big thank you for your quick reaction, unfortunately I didn’t understand a bit what needs to be done now. Please be patient, I can configure everything under your guidance and together we can test the performance.
I would also like to clarify that there is also a button to turn on the LED lighting that is directly built in Sunshade

Now I tried to install via npm install pimatic-dooya, the installation was correct. although before that there was an installation error

although a little hastened here is what now wrote https://yadi.sk/d/0AmK_FWzVCkIxA

@dmagraf Sorry but I can’t help you with using pimatic. Please refer to the documentation and the forum. You can contact me once you have the dooya plugin running.

@michbeck100 I do not use pimatic. I thought that you can install this module in homebridge
this is what happened after installation https://yadi.sk/d/0AmK_FWzVCkIxA

@dmagraf Sorry, I don’t speak russian. If you want to use the plugin then you should start using pimatic, too. I think that’s obvious. Otherwise you might find someone who is willing to migrate the code of pimatic-dooya to home bridge. Good luck.

@michbeck100 this is the file hosting service to which I saved the file from the terminal.

I tried to install pimatic, errors get during installation and nothing happens.
I’m not a programmer, but for a more or less clear instruction, I can cope with any installation.

thanks for your active help

Then start with installing the dooya plugin from the ui. you shouldn’t use npm directly for this.

@michbeck100 I was not careful, I used the instructions for PI2, but I need a bvo for PI3 now I am completing the full installation

I try to install pimatic on the original homebridge image, what do you think will work? or eat maybe there is some advice for a beginner.

I congratulate myself! pimatic and pimatic-dooya module installed successfully

Now I would have to figure out how to listen to RF433 and how to add it to HOMEKIT

figured out in order to get into HOMEKIT you need to install a “plugin”: “hap” I installed it, first through the web interface but the bridge didn’t appear when added by adding accessories, I tried using the github method. result is deprecatory

First of all, you must verify that the plugin is actually working with your shades. Since my pull request was resolved and there is a new version of the plugin (1.0.1), you should update it and try if it’s actually working. Once you’ve updated the plugin you can add your DooyaDevice to the start page and you should see two controls. On for up and now for down. If these buttons are actually moving your shades, then we can talk about Homekit.

When I get home, I’ll do a completely new Rpi installation and start testing
