Fixed a bug, where calling "close the garagedoor" on already closed door actually opens them. - by Bydga

Description

This homebridge plugin exposes a web-based garage opener to Apple's HomeKit. Using simple HTTP requests, the plugin allows you to open/close the garage. It works as a general purpose HTTP client for any relay, but it works particularly well with a Shelly 1 relay.

Installation

1. Install Homebridge.
2. Install the plugin by running npm install -g homebridge-garage-door-shelly1 or by searching for homebridge-garage-door-shelly1 on the plugins tab if you are using Homebridge UI or Hoobs.
3. Update your Homebridge config.json accordingly.

Configuration

NOTE: Don't forget to update shelly_ip to the IP address of your Shelly relay.

Door open/closed sensor

In order to know for sure if your gate is open or closed you need to install a Reed Switch sensor connected between L and SW (order is irrelevant). These cost between €2 and €5.

For Shelly 1 and a normally open reed switch (NO) the following options need to be set:

"accessories": [
     {
       ...
		 "statusKey": "$.inputs[0].input",
		 "statusValueOpen": "0",
		 "statusValueClosed": "1"
		 ...
	  }
	]

For a normally closed switch (NC), use:

"accessories": [
     {
       ...
		 "statusKey": "$.inputs[0].input",
		 "statusValueOpen": "1",
		 "statusValueClosed": "0"
		 ...
	  }
	]
