ESP8266 based HomeKit accessories
Posted: Tue Dec 15, 2015 1:00 pmI've seen a lot of people using MQTT on ESP8266 to do home automation with things like OpenHAB, etc. however, I didn't find anyone using it with Apple's HomeKit. I understand that the HomeKit API not being public is kind of a let down, but people have reverse engineered it. Once you get it working, it's rather convenient to use directly with Siri.
I wrote a post to describe how to set up HAP-NodeJS, a node server that emulates the HomeKit API with ESP8266/Arduino based accessories.
