Ezviz smart plug support for Home Assistant (docker)

Scripts that allows to use Ezviz smart WiFi plugs in dockerized Home Assistant.

How it works?

1. Template switch in template_switch.yaml is defined to send mqtt message on home/mqttr/control topic.
2. Daemonized bash script mqttr-receiver executes mosquitto_sub which listens for /home/mqttr/# messages and pass payload to python script.
3. Python script mqttr.py is checking payload and sends it to a module given in serve variable (for now ezviz-plug only, but you can add more for your own purposes).
4. Python script ezviz-plug.py when executed from mqttr.py is changing the state of plug but when executed from cron is updating Home Assistant sensors defined in mqttr_sensor.yaml by sending mqtt message to home/plug/QXXXXXXXX

What do you need?

Linux server with Python 3.10+, Mosquitto server, pyEzviz, Home Assistant, MQTT integration in HA, smart plugs added to your Ezviz account.

What to do?

1. Copy mqttr folder to /usr/local/bin.
2. Edit mqttr.conf and provide your mosquitto server user and password.
3. Edit and copy template switch and mqtt sensor definitions from homeassistant/*.yamlto HA configuration
4. Edit inc/ezviz_config.py and change your Ezviz account user, password and plugs device serial number list.
5. Use mqttr-receiver as systemd service to receive mqtt messages from HA. Service file is in systemd/mqttr.service and should be copied to '/lib/systemd/system`. Remeber to reload systemd, enable service and start it.
6. Use cron to execute inc/ezviz-plug.py to check plugs status.

Look into files and directories and you'll figure it out. ;)
