Expose each Nuki Bridge as separate accessory with a custom service.
Home shows this accessory as Not Supported in Home, but is required for
Homebridge NB.
In Eve and other HomeKit apps, this accessory provides control of the polling
rate, the level of logging, and rebooting the Bridge.
In future, this accessory might become a separate bridge.
Expose each Nuki Smart Lock as a separate accessory, with a Lock Mechanism
service to control the lock, and a Battery service for the battery.
The when present and configured, door sensor is exposed as separate
Contact Sensor service, including Eve history.
Expose each Nuki Opener as separate accessory, with a Doorbell service for
the ringer, a Lock Mechanism service for the opener, and a Battery Service
for the battery.
Zero configuration:
Automatic discovery of Nuki Bridge and paired Smart Lock and Opener devices.
Automatic configuration of API token.
The token is persisted across Homebridge restarts (in the Bridge accessory).
Technical:
Use local API provided by the Nuki Bridge; no Internet connection needed
(except for discovery of the Bridge).
Use hashed tokens for added security.
Subscribe to Nuki Bridge for notifications on device state changes.
Use Identify on the Smart Lock and Opener accessories to force the Bridge
to contact the device and refresh the cached device state.
Prerequisites
Homebridge NB communicates with the Nuki Bridge using the local
Nuki Bridge HTTP API.
You need to enable this API through the Nuki app.
Use Eve to get the full functionality,
like history for the door sensor,
and support for Ring to Open and Continuous Mode on the Opener.
Command-Line Tool
Homebridge NB includes a command-line tool, nb,
to interact with the Nuki Bridge from the comand line.
It takes a -h or --help argument to provide a brief overview of
its functionality and command-line arguments.
