benleb/miblepy repository overview

⁠miblepy ·

miblepy fetches data from various (Xiaomi/Mijia/Mi) Bluetooth LE devices and push it to a MQTT broker. For every device supported, there are already libraries or anything else to fetch the data from - and they work perfectly. But as they are separated and often run as distinct (cron)jobs, which are not aware of each other, or even as daemons... the fight for the BLE interface starts...

miblepy solves this by acting as a "coordinator" to fetch the data in a controlled, sequential way.

Currently this is a private project tailored to my needs - but open for PRs

⁠Usage

miblepy is available as pip⁠ package and Docker image⁠.

⁠Install

⁠via pip

pip install miblepy

⁠manual

• clone this repo & cd to it

  git clone https://github.com/benleb/miblepy.git && cd miblepy
  

  Copy

• install via

  • poetry

    poetry install
    

    Copy

  • pip

    pip install .
    

    Copy

⁠Configuration

Copy mible.toml to ~/.mible.toml and adjust settings to your needs. ~/.mible.toml is the default location where mible expects your configuration. You can change this via --config.

⁠Run

Start a single round of fetching from your configured sensors in ~/.mible.toml

mible fetch

try mible --help to get more info.

To continously fetch data from your sensors check out the systemd timer⁠ and service⁠. You can also use a classic cronjob or even an automation provided by your smart home system (home assistant for example)

⁠Docker

The :latest tag is built from master, other tags can be found on Docker Hub⁠

Mount your miblepy config to /miblepy/mible.toml

docker run --privileged --volume "mible.toml:/miblepy/mible.toml:ro" benleb/miblepy

⁠Supported devices

• VegTrug / Mi Flora plant sensors (Flower Care)
• (Xiaomi?) Mijia Bluetooth Temperature Humidity sensors with LCD (LYWSD03MMC)
• (Xiaomi?) Mi Body Composition Scale 2 (XMTZC05HM / XMTZC02HM)

⁠Support a new device

• TODO

Check the already available plugins to see some examples.
