• I'm looking for a way to control a bunch of servo motors through homebridge

  Before switching to HA, I always used MQTT-Thing for my Tasmota devices, but there are several HB plugins that don’t require an MQTT broker to work.

• Home charger status chart, enjoying the MQTT integration from OpenEVSE. Curious why Volvo XC40 Recharge resumes charging at 0.4A for 10m a few times after it's done.

  I'm not familiar with Homebridge, but it looks like there may be a Homebridge <=> MQTT bridge already.

• Interact to Node-Red through Homebridge - any options?
  2 projects | /r/homebridge | 14 Jan 2023

  For actually exposing the sensor to HomeKit, Homebridge is great. I’m a big fan of MQTT-Thing and have not yet found a replacement for all it can do; Home Assistant HomeKit support is good, but lacks many features of HB with MQTT-Thing. For this reason, I’d suggest you simply publish the “battery level” to the topic setup for the contact sensor in HB, add an apply function based on the low battery level, and you’re done.

• Is it possible to create a dummy window covering switch to set multiple blinds to a specific position?
  1 project | /r/homebridge | 31 Oct 2022

  My approach would be to use MQTT-Thing to present a fake blind to HomeKit and Node-RED to translate/mirror the position state to your real blinds.

• Recreate iHome sensor notifications in Home/Shortcuts automation

  Which dummy contact sensor plugin are you using? I found https://github.com/arachnetech/homebridge-mqttthing and it looks like had to install mosquitto, which I did, but I don’t know what to add in MQTT settings/topics/etc.

• Need help with MQTThing airQualitySensor, JSON.parse and a Tasmotized Vindriktning
  1 project | /r/homebridge | 9 Oct 2021

  I took the idea of the "return" parte of the getAirQuality from here: https://github.com/arachnetech/homebridge-mqttthing/issues/162

• Looking for help to link TostCorp RTS box to homebridge (with raspberry pi) in mqtt to control somfy blinds

  Looks like mqttting supports blinds over MQTT: https://github.com/arachnetech/homebridge-mqttthing/blob/master/docs/Accessories.md#window-covering
