[video demonstration of homebridge/HomeKit part]
Manual for installation of Raspbian and homebridge on Raspberry Pi and a project of home automation via HomeKit using Raspberry Pi.
First of all you need to install homebridge on your machine (Raspberry Pi) along with plugins (personally I use cmdSwitch2 and TemperatureFile for now).
Then you need to configure your home automation system inside the system.py file.
Used plugins:
npm install -g homebridge-cmdswitch2
npm install -g homebridge-http-temperatureAfter that just generate new config.json and replace ~/.homebridge/config.json with newly generated newconfig.json:
python home_automation/generate_config.py -rTo start all services you can use res/startup.sh (with screen commands) or res/tmux_startup.sh (with tmux commands).
