Homebridge plugin to easily manage Tydom hardware by Delta Dore from Apple HomeKit.

  • Rely on node-tydom-client to communicate with an existing Tydom bridge (required).

  • Properly propagates external events into Apple HomeKit.

  • Built with TypeScript for static type checking with exported types along the library.

  • Supports Webhooks to trigger non-homekit dependent actions or notifications.

Documentation

Installation

  1. Add homebridge-tydom plugin to your homebridge install:
{
  "private": true,
  "description": "This file keeps track of which plugins should be installed.",
  "dependencies": {
    "homebridge-tydom": "^0.23.9"
  }
}
  1. Configure the homebridge-tydom platform, providing your Tydom identifiers:
{
  "bridge": {
    "name": "Homebridge 27C9",
    "username": "0E:21:1B:E7:27:C9",
    "port": 53619,
    "pin": "031-45-154"
  },
  "accessories": [],
  "platforms": [
    {
      "platform": "Tydom",
      "hostname": "mediation.tydom.com",
      "username": "001A25123456",
      "password": "YourPassw0rd",
      "debug": true
    }
  ]
}

Your username is the MAC Address of your local Tydom hardware, it should be 001A25 + your 6-character home ID that you can find in the mobile app.

The password for newer Tydom setups can be auto-generated by the mobile application and hard to get. Only solution for now is to use some SSL Proxying application on your mobile to inspect the requests. You can follow the following guide from @aure-olivier to get it.

For your password, you can also use an environment variable HOMEBRIDGE_TYDOM_PASSWORD with the base64 encoded value of your password.

Example: HOMEBRIDGE_TYDOM_PASSWORD=Zm9vYmFyYmF6 for a foobarbaz password (echo -n "foobarbaz" | base64)

  1. Configure the locale used for the labels (supported languages: French (default) & English) using the HOMEBRIDGE_TYDOM_LOCALE environment variable with value fr or en.

SecuritySystem

You can also manage your TYXAL+ security system from HomeKit (but it requires your alarm pin code):

As HomeKit security system has 3 active levels: stay, night, away you can configure which zones are linked to these active levels (away is by default every zones).

  1. You need to add the following to the config settings field (check the logs for your actual device id).
{
  "platforms": [
    {
      "settings": {
        "1521931577": {"aliases": {"stay": [3], "night": [2, 3]}}
      }
    }
  ]
}
  1. For the pin,

You can either add a pin field:

{
  "platforms": [
    {
      "settings": {
        "1521931577": {"pin": "123456", "aliases": {"stay": [3], "night": [2, 3]}}
      }
    }
  ]
}

Or you can also use an environment variable HOMEBRIDGE_TYDOM_PIN with the base64 encoded value of your pin (might be safer than having it inside your config.json).

You can optionnaly rename zones (default is Zone 1, Zone 2, etc.),

{
  "platforms": [
    {
      "settings": {
        "1521931577": {"zones": ["1st Floor", "Ground Floor", "Garden"]}
      }
    }
  ]
}

GarageDoorOpener

You can customize the default GarageDoorOpener delay (defaults to 20 seconds)

Value is in milliseconds:

{
  "platforms": [
    {
      "settings": {
        "1529094720": {"delay": 10000} // 10 seconds
      }
    }
  ]
}

You can also configure an autoCloseDelay

{
  "platforms": [
    {
      "settings": {
        "1529094720": {"autoCloseDelay": 300000} // 5 minutes
      }
    }
  ]
}

Webhooks

You can specify webhooks in your config.json to receive non homekit-dependent notifications.

For now all SecuritySystem events are relayed and we only support discord.

{
  "platforms": [
    {
      "webhooks": [
        {
          "url": "https://discord.com/api/webhooks/123456/abdcdef",
          "type": "discord",
          "level": "debug"
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Category overrides (eg. Fan)

You can override categories of devices (eg. some light switch used to manage a fan)

  1. You need to add the following to the config settings field (check the logs for your actual device id).
{
  "platforms": [
    {
      "settings": {
        "1528565701": {"category": 3}
      }
    }
  ]
}

3 being the Categories.FAN number.

You can find the global list here

Supported hardware

It is currently supporting the following devices (have them at home).

But should support many more similar devices out of the box.

Some other hardware that should work thanks to the community feedback:

It is relatively easy to add new hardware so don't hesitate to create a new issue.

Notes

You can also use your local tydom IP (eg 192.168.0.X) for hostname, however:

  • You must set environment var NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0 to interact with the self-signed certificate.
  • Tydom 2.0 firmware can sometimes have trouble dealing multiple local clients, locking you away from the mobile app.

Configurations

Field Type Description
hostname string Tydom hostname
username string Tydom username
password string Tydom password
settings Record<string, ?> Device settings (overrides)
includedDevices Array<string> number> Include only devices with following ids
excludedDevices Array<string> number> Exclude all devices with following ids
includedCategories Array<string> number> Include only categories with following ids
excludedCategories Array<string> number> Exclude all categories with following ids
  • The settings field enables you to override the name or homekit category of your Tydom device (check homebridge log for the device ids).

You can also use the following environment variables (base64 encoded values)

Env Description
HOMEBRIDGE_TYDOM_PASSWORD Tydom password
HOMEBRIDGE_TYDOM_PIN Tyxal+ pin

Help

If you open a new issue, please provide a dump of your tydom configuration using node-tydom-client:

npx tydom-client request /configs/file /devices/data /devices/meta /devices/cmeta --file tydom_output.json --username 001A25XXXXXX --password XXXXXX

Will create the file tydom_output.json to upload, you can use https://gist.github.com.

An homebridge log with debug enabled while using the tydom official app (to trace working requests) can also help a lot.

Debug

This library uses debug to provide high verbosity logs, just pass the following environment:

DEBUG=homebridge-tydom

You might also want to debug node-tydom-client

DEBUG=homebridge-tydom,tydom-client

Alternatively, you can set debug to true in the plugin's configuration.
