homebridge-unifi-protect VS homebridge-lutron-caseta-leap

For several years I've been relying on an authentication mechanism with my main UDM (v3.1.16) that relies on the X-CSRF-Token header returned when doing a GET request directly to the UDM's IP address, as per the instructions found here (https://github.com/hjdhjd/homebridge-unifi-protect/blob/main/docs/ProtectAPI.md).

Nice suggestions using relays as. Alternatively, if you can use a Protect Chime (may require multiple as they are not very loud) - https://eu.store.ui.com/collections/unifi-accessories/products/smart-chime or if you are feeling adventurous, you can use existing smart speakers as chimes with a Home Assistant (https://johnzanussi.com/posts/unifi-g4-doorbell-chime-with-sonos) or Homebridge integration (https://github.com/hjdhjd/homebridge-unifi-protect).

I also have only HSV cameras or Ubiquiti ones for this reason. Everything I care about is stored on-site or in the cloud with end-to-end encryption, no privacy or surveillance state enablement concerns.

There's a great HomeBridge plugin which enables HomeKit Secure Video on my UniFi Protect cameras: https://github.com/hjdhjd/homebridge-unifi-protect

Which Homebridge Unifi Protect plugin did you try? This one worked well for me, but I eventually got tired of maintaining 2 camera systems and gave up on HKSV. My wife actually prefers the Unifi Protect app anyway since it has continuous history and a decent UI- so why bother with HK?

This one https://github.com/hjdhjd/homebridge-unifi-protect

For the plug-in ? There’s the repository.

How does scrypted compare to https://github.com/hjdhjd/homebridge-unifi-protect ? This works pretty well but does have some delays loading cams at times.

Homebridge UniFi Protect

Just installed a caseta smart hub and pico remote which I want to add to HomeKit via homebridge so have used the plugin : homebridge-lutron-caseta-leap

I also installed a Lutron Caseta Pico Remote on the wall to act as a switch for the fan's light. The fan light is the only overhead light in this room, so it's important that it works reliability. I bridge the Pico Remote into HomeKit with the HomeBridge Caseta LEAP plugin.

The Lutron Caseta LEAP plugin does allow you to use Pico remotes with HomeKit through the standard Smart Bridge.

Note that the “errors that aren’t errors” issue already has a bug report: Errors reported in the log · Issue #71 · thenewwazoo/homebridge-lutron-caseta-leap · GitHub

Here’s the plugin: https://github.com/thenewwazoo/homebridge-lutron-caseta-leap

I've got an open-source Homebridge plugin (https://github.com/thenewwazoo/homebridge-lutron-caseta-leap) that has a bug in its client-handling code. There is some problem with connection handling that is causing user pain. I am an experienced developer, but new to Typescript, and absolutely cannot chase it down. I would love the help of someone with Node socket coding knowledge willing to take a look.

Another welcome addition is that with Homebridge and this plugin, you can assign the buttons to any HomeKit commands instead: https://github.com/thenewwazoo/homebridge-lutron-caseta-leap

You can now get the regular bridge into Homebridge. I’ve been using it for a few weeks. https://github.com/thenewwazoo/homebridge-lutron-caseta-leap
